Oops sorry I just took a swig of this GOP koolaide and feel kind of strange Mega Dittos everybody. Media is biased, gays are evil, Janet Jackson is immoral, we need vouchers, Rush is a victim of over zealous prosecution, Megga Dittos, I'm thinking like everybody else Bush just got lucky to get that air national guard spot, mega dittos, media is biased, must not believe media, mega dittos, only believe Rush and Hannity . . . media sucks, must only trust GOP news, mega dittos,

Are you saying that the media also reports when Dems do wrong!? To hear the GOP talk; all the media does is slam the GOP and refuses to cover any Dem wrong doings. Maybe the media isn't so bias after all.

Well after one game we have two players knocked out. Heads22 and Kapkomet Man 0f Steel falls out with the Tennessee Titans winning. The Browns stunning victory knocks out four CWSGuy406 - Browns CrimsonWeltall - Browns Rowand 44 - Browns AssHatSoxFan - Browns Betting on the Lions losing sounded good, but that would mean the Bears winning: He gawn soxman352000 - Lions BeGood falls in week one with the Jaguars We started with 31 players and now have 22. Almost 1/3 of the players were out in week 1. I will have the week 2 pick thread up Tuesday morning.

The school is getting sued now with zero tolerance.

This whole election f***ing sucks. JK and W are ass clowns who don't deserve to be President, and the only people I despise more right now are the people who have allowed leaders, people of integrity, people with visions, to be chased away from public service. This is by the far the worse choice we have faced in my life time. I'd take Bob Dole or Al Gore over these two. I actually had high hopes for W.

Do you have a problem with the kid sitting out three years if he isn't safe in two? Pellet Gun = Gun Plastic Knife = Knife Same lack of allowing human decision making in the policy. When does a plactic butter knife become a dangerous weapon? Instead of allowing some human to use their brains, we try and write a policy in advance that will cover every conceivable situation. Write the definition too wide and some kid who is helping grandma move is expelled, too narrow and a dangerous weapon is allowed. As an excercise write a definition of "knife". Let trained educators think and make judgements.

Of course the entire world is against the GOP. I heard that Clinton may have had a problem with an intern, did you hear anything about it? I hear Kerry may not have earned those medals, I wonder why that hasn't been reported? I heard Rostenkowski years ago may have cheated on his franking priveleges? Iwonder why that was never reported? I heard Ted Kennedy may have had a problem with a drunk driving situation, I wonder why no one knows about that. I heard that Jesse Jackson may have fathered a child out of wedlock, I wonder why that wasn't reported? As soon as the GOP gets in a jam they immediately blame the messenger.

We have certain rights to protect ourselves from our governement. Innocent people shouldn't worry about search and seizure laws, Miranda warnings, 48 hours of sleep deprivation, etc.

What is fun to speculate about is this, if it is a forgery, was it done by the Dems or the GOPs?

I am so sorry to hear that. My prayers are with you and your family. God Bless Mike, tonight will be terrible, tomorrow hopefully better. Sorrow is not forever, love is.

Mr Zero, were with the FBI and have a couple questions for you. We noticed that you were walking with a know terorrists. You walked from your train station for three blocks directly behind this person. We also noticed that when he stopped for a newspaper, you did to. Now you were clever enough to not talk directly to him, but we cannot help but think you are somehow involved. Our newest technology will track your every move. You go to the baseball game, the satellites will be counting every beer, you talk to that cute girl at the bus stop, we'll be recording your lips. Eventually Mr. Zero, we'll have enough evidence to charge you. Have a nice day. Remember, we're watching you.

I am not to certain I want a President who couldn't take advantage of a well connected daddy. I know I thought a President that couldn't figure out to inhale was an idiot. Bush was just one of many thousands of priviledged white males who avoided getting shot at in some far away rice paddy for no reason. Throughout history it is the minorities in a society that fight and die in wars. Not all, but many. Soldierd never look like the men who order them into combat.

The rest if the story from Channel 7

The insurance company was fooled at first when she paid by a check, but then they discovered that NASCAR fans learned how to use checking accounts as soon as Deluxe Check Printing started the Jeff Gordan / Vienna Sausage / Chewin' Tabaccy check series.

1. Do you sleep with your socks on? Yes, I put them on my ears. 2. Do you stare at your naked self in the mirror and flex? No, it isn't polite to stare. 3. Do you masturbate at least twice a week? Only for the past 30 years and only if I'm in the mood, remember no means no. Of course I will sometime try and get myself drunk. Last night my hand fell asleep. I've even tried a nice dinner. 4. Could Optimus Prime beat up all four G.I. Joe? Who? 5. Have you ever just cooked up a pound of bacon and eaten it? Alone? No. I have wrapped my self in bacon and sat on the beach. Is that wrong?

I hope they enjoy their life in prison. I've always heard these guys are treated extra special. :fyou

Actually I think they raised her premium when they discovered she was a NASCAR fan [/ducking and running]

Inflation. When Sam down at the body shop gets a raise and Murray at the sheet metal plant gets a raise, the cost of repairs goes up. When energy prices go up, the cost of manufacturing goes up the cost to the insurance company goes up, and they pass it on to you. Now if the sheet metal plant decides to build their new plant in Mexico and can hold their pricing, then your insurance still goes up because they all just want to make more money. BTW, if you really want to see a price increase, move near the border. Steal a car here and get to Mexico with it and there is .003% chance of getting caught. So my auto policy went up 46% when I moved to south Texas.

That kid needs to be out until a child health care professional, and preferably two, say he is safe. I have no idea, and either does the school board, when he is safe. It may very well be tomorrow, it may be in two years, I just do not want to take the chance. I also feel it is unfair that the kid sit out two years, if he is safe now, just because someone a couple years ago came up with that number. Many of the zero tolerance laws came about because of Columbine and the need to do something, anything, to protect our kids. School board candidats ran on platforms of "getting tougher" and getting these kids out of the schools. Problem is they didn't give themselves any flexibility when a kid makes an honest mistake and some of the punishments are way out of scale. They also have allowed the professionals to duck behind the policies and not be accountable and not be allowed to do what they are trained and schooled to do.

Guily pleasure. I adopted Houston as my #2 team and have watched as that made the same horrible turn that the Sox season did, then this streak is making it interesting. They are kind of the "hometown" team here. Although the Rangers have a lot of fans also.It is just so hard to pull for a team to catch the Cubs and knock them out of the playoffs.

Don't give up a thing. Don't make any changes except open yourself up to listen to the word of God from the Bible. Don't think you have to act or think or behave any differently. Given time, God will let you know what you should do. Don't force it. One of my favorite sermons I ever heard was by a guy I met through the Christian Motorcycle Association. We had just witnessed a fellow rider and his wife being hauled off in an ambulance after an accident. I won't go into details but in his words came a message for me to start doing a couple things I had been negleting. And BTW, you are sounding very intelligent.

National Lampoons European Vacation

everal times in posts it was stated that zero tolerance policies are working. I believe they are not working and in fact have been harmful. This isn't the first hijacked thread. I am sorry there is a perception of, or even more sadly if true, the fact you have racists in your town that cannot fairly make decisions and need some "one size fits all" punishment. I think that is ducking responsibility and passing the buck. I also think ducking responsibility is our newest national sport. No one can make a decision. No one will take a stand and defend it. Good kids get screwed, bad kids get off too easy because of one size fits all. Advil and crack cocain treated the same. One size fits all. Butter knife falls in the back of a pickup truck, gang banger brings a switch blade. Same thing. One size fits all. And they have to do this because the elected officials decided they could not hire competent people who can make decision on a case by case basis. So now you can hire any idiot of the street and have them run the school. Just hand them the book the school board writes and life is fine. I do not have faith in the length of time a dangerous student should stay away that was pre-determined during a campaign speech. And I guess my subconcious was working, my car is in the shop. But I really like my mechanic, he's too smart to run for the school board. I've been asked by teachers to run. I am not bilingual. That is the kiss of death around here.

Evil you are arguing the kid should be back in school in two years, I'm arguing he may never be ready to come back to school. Who is being more responsible? You are trusting the auto mechanic on the school board that decided that gang bangers and honor roll students are both rehabbed in exactly 2 years. You are saying you do not want him in a classroom with your kids, then arguing that he should be allowed back into the classroom in exactly two years as decided by the elected school board members. By not reading my posts, you are missing the point. These zero tolerance laws are handcuffing trained adults from making decisions. I am saying the best approach is allowing this kid back in the classroom when he isn't a threat, not a minute before. You are arguing he'll be ready in exactly two years. I'm arguing it may be 1 year 6 months, it may be never. You don't want this kid in your kid's classroom, but you keep arguing that just staying away exactly two years will keep your kid safe. I do not want this kid around my kid until he is evaluated and proves he is safe. Now whose head up up his ass? Pull your head out of your ass in two years when this kid is allowed back without any evaluation and thank the idiots on the school board who knew years ago this kid could be rehabbed in exactly two years without even meeting him. Not 1 year 11 months or three years, but exactly 2 years. Justice Zero Tolerance style Gang banger who has failed every class brings 45 auto to school? Two Years. Honor Student brings pellet gun? Two years Can't people in your town think? Can they not make decisions based on the unique circumstances? Nope they are idiots and need zero tolerance guidelines to tell them what to do. And just in case you still do not understand I AM NOT ARGUING THIS KID SHOULD BE ALLOWED IN NOW. I AM ARGUING THE KID SHOULD BE EVALUATED BEFORE BEING ALLOWED TO RETURN, NOT A f***ING MINUTE SOONER. TWO YEARS IS NOT A MAGIC NUMBER THAT WILL KEEP ANYONE SAFE. I DO NOT TRUST A DECISION THE SCHOOL BOARD MADE WITHOUT HAVING ANY INFORMATION ON THIS KID OR WHAT HE DID THAT STATES IN TWO YEARS HE IS SAFE TO BE AROUND MY KIDS. HOW THE f*** DID THE SCHOOL BOARD KNOW THAT THIS KID COULD BE REHABBED IN EXACTLY TWO YEARS? ARE THEY PSYCHICS? Why do you put more faith in this magical two years as determined by an elected school board than the opinion of child health workers?
