Not bored at all. What was your host family like? How do you think the experience changed you, if at all? Did you have a choice of countries?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 30, 2006 -> 01:31 PM) Well, you're basically wrong on both fronts. Not really sure why you mentioned the Cubs, as far as I know they've never signed a draft pick with a clause in his contract that he must be called up by September after being drafted earlier in the season. It has nothing to do with being thin pitching wise, they HAVE to call him up. QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 30, 2006 -> 01:37 PM) Try doing a little research next time... Excellent use of pop culture, I rate it a QOTM

Thank You.

With the noted exceptions that Mike mentioned, not a bad article. When he started talking about BBQ, I was thinking huh? It never seemed that big of a deal, but I forgot about ribs.

The easiest IMHO is The Jungle. Of course conservatives will not want their children to read it. Too much do gooding from the government. Married . . . With Children put Fox on the map. Newhart is a TV Classic, ER is probably the most critically acclaimed, and Good Times was cutting edge social commentary.

*Hill Street may be a stretch. While the city was never identified, it was usually thought of as Chicago. Discuss

Just askin', if a parent is doing the homework for their child, so that child can keep earnin' As, does the parent have to be in uniform? Not that I a thinking of anyone in particular.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Sep 1, 2006 -> 04:58 AM) If the rape allegations are true... cant he plea temporary insanity or something like that? My understanding is the allegation doesn't even have to be true. Extreme emotional stress can be caused by a false belief as well.

Making themselves worst is not in their best interest. Coincidence.

my heart goes out to everyone in this. I doubt the police officers were malicious, they made a terrible mistake, and will have to live with that.

While call ups rarely make a big impact in a stretch run, this year could be the exception.

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 06:43 PM) I see no contradiction. We will reduce troop levels by 7000, we just don't know when. If he had meant that troop levels would be reduced within any given span of time, that would be a deadline. And deadlines mean the terrorists win. Now, this is all very obvious, so while I don't want to question your patriotism, I have to ask, Balta, why do you hate America? Fixed it.

TB LOB 19! You know, we probably didn't deserve to win this one.

We can lose with the best of them. 8-9-1 currently is about the most pathetic stretch I can recall in Sox uniforms. I did say as long as we win 7/8 series, we'd get in, and we won this series, but it feels like we gave one away.

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 03:27 PM) I really f***ing hate when we publish something as a "standard" value and the turn around after the customer has designed the part in and decide it is a special. This bloody day WILL NOT END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 And thankfully the VP of marketing comes in to save the day and takes care of the customer. Thanks to him! I always hated that.
