It all adds up. A few years back a teenager was killed on the US side while tending to his family's goats. QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 11, 2010 -> 12:19 AM) What about the frustration of Mexican troops aiming weapons at our law enforcement agents. Its one thing when you have to deal with the illegal immigrants, but its another issue when you involve the neighbors and their troops.

US paper money is exactly 6" and manufactured to a tighter tolerance than a .99 WalMart 6" ruler.

There is a lot of frustration for US law enforcement on the border. People running back across the border and taunting insults. People up north thinking you are doing a s***ty job. Most Americans along the border have relatives and friends south of the border.

RIP

Happy birthday!

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 05:26 PM) Alright, we are all guys here, so here goes... I have been "going at it" the past few weeks like I am 15. I'm talking daily or once every other day. I have been doing my thing once a week at the most when I wasn't getting laid. I get "warmed up" at the slightest things it seems recently. What the hell is wrong with me? Awesome bump.

How about the rules where each player has to play?

One of the good guys.

Cool, thanks QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 08:48 AM) When I was a kid my family loaded up the RV and went from Central Illinois down to Natchez. I'm pretty sure we hit up that parkway. Also stopped in Vicksburg. As a 14-15 year old, Vicksburg was awesome, especially in the summer. Buy the drive along CD and you can get the history of the battle with the convenience of the AC. And you can get out to look at anything you find interesting (there's quite a bit to see). Natchez was ok if you're into looking at really old (but cool) plantation mansions. A lot of them have "actors" playing the roles of the original owners/slaves/workmen, to give you a little more history.

The Boy Scout Soccer and Scouting program is planned, organized, and understood to be a non competitive, development program. They do not keep score, the emphasis is on sportsmanship and learning how to be better soccer players. It runs through the age of 12. Some kids jump into a more competitive league as they get older, some go to the travelling, hypercompetitive programs. Bottom line there is room for all kinds. I'm not going to fault a league if they are wishing to be less competitive. I was president of the men's golf association at my last country club. We had a group of guys that played hard with money always on the line.Is there something wrong with the guys that just wanted to play for a little excercise and to see how well they can do?

It will be interesting to see how the penalty minutes shake out tonight. I expect a more physical game tonight.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ May 31, 2010 -> 02:06 PM) They forgot to superimpose George W. Bush looking down from the heavens onto both pictures - while photoshopping in the devil horns. Each President has a chance to make a difference. They can't solve everything, all they can do is make small changes. Those changes will make it slightly better or slightly worse. In the end Presidents receive too much credit and too much blame.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 25, 2010 -> 01:43 PM) If we are paying billions of dollars for something, yes, unlike the Democrats apparently, I expect something for it. I assume the government would have to sub contract this to someone, I doubt we have a underwater well plugging up crew" so all we would be doing is contracting with BP or someone like BP. Sucks

QUOTE (The Critic @ May 31, 2010 -> 09:24 AM) It's not like he should be a super-confident guy anyway. Career minor-leaguer, waived 5 times, looked like a frightened deer in the biggest game of his career. If the Toews/Kane/Byfuglien line shows up at all tonight, we should see Boucher replace Leighton again. He was flying pretty high for a couple weeks and probably should have been. This probably dropped him down to earth. I am a little surprised he's getting the start tonight. I suspect if he gives up three in the first, he would be done. And you are correct they have to show up tonight. I thought the Hawk depth was doing to be the difference, I am suprised that the top line was shut down so completely.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 31, 2010 -> 10:33 AM) I mean, they are making it sound like he blew off Memorial Day entirely. yep, silly isn't it?

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 31, 2010 -> 10:35 AM) The less attention given to these guys the better I keep hoping karma is a b****

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 31, 2010 -> 08:49 AM) In a weird sort of way that would be better. At least then you would know that people would have jobs matched up with them when they got here. there has to be a link between immigration and jobs

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 31, 2010 -> 10:00 AM) He's going to Lincoln National Cemetery instead... seriously, what's the difference? I will say this, he basically picked a convenient place close to where he was vacationing. That is kind of lame. I would prefer he be at Arlington, but it isn't as big a deal as some veterans groups are making it.

Happy Birthday PA

I'm not certain if Balta already posted this http://www.cnn.com/2010/SHOWBIZ/Music/05/3...rial/index.html

Philly has a controversy in goal and the Hawks are set. The Flyers gambled on pulling Leighton and I think shaking his confidence will come back and haunt them. I'm guessing he plays a little tighter wondering if he'll get pulled after giving up a goal or two. Or it's wishful thinking.

I was watching an interesting documentary on the History Channel and the state of our roads, bridges, sewer, water, and electric grid is appalling. I use to think we would fall because of our debt, but now I'm thinking running out of electricity and not being able to flush a toilet may cripple up first.
