  1. But wonder if he has "Mark's f***ING parents"
  2. Zan and Zana are pretty goddamned crappy. I'd have to say though that one of the worst cartoon characters of all time has to be the little kids on Thundercats. Those little punk ass douchebags didn't do anything except get kidnapped by Mum-Ra all the damn time.
  3. Let's not offend blowhards now by lumping them with Robertson.
  4. Saw this on another site that I look at: So what's Pat's angle? Unsurprisingly, he's taken Rush's ball and run with it into an even uglier area. The Racist Reverend tried to demonstrate that black people do benefit from "social concern" by comparing McNabb to actor Morgan Freeman: "He started off playing a chauffeur in 'Driving Miss Daisy,' and then they elevated him to head of the CIA and then they elevated him to President and in his last role they made him God. I just wonder, isn't Rush Limbaugh right to question the fact, is he that good an actor or not?" Um, reality check, Pat. Morgan Freeman is an actor. He's hasn't actually been promoted from chauffeur to God. You know? It's all, like, an illusion. Of course, the implication here is that as far as Pat Robertson is concerned, black people should stick to playing chauffeurs and let white people deal with the business of playing God. Incidentally, in between playing a chauffeur and God, Morgan Freeman also played, among other things, the roles of a slave ("Amistad"), a slave ("Glory"), a murderer ("The Shawshank Redemption"), and, oh look, a murderer ("Nurse Betty"). Presumably Pat considers these to be more appropriate roles for the three-time-Oscar-nominated actor. And it's not a good week for Pat since earlier in the week he was on the 700 Club advocating the State Department being blown up with a nuclear weapon.

    U of I

    If you're going to engineering then I dunno but if you're doing LAS, you're a lock.
  6. If you ban their IP, they're f***ed on coming back with a different name.
  7. Royce Clayton: BOOM! in the fireworks commercial. Ugh.
  8. Letters from hometown soldiers describing their successes rebuilding Iraq have been appearing in newspapers across the country as U.S. public opinion on the mission sours. And all the letters are the same. http://www.theolympian.com/home/news/20031...ge/121390.shtml
  9. The Cubs have a long flight ahead of them back to Chicago after getting 2 hit and having faced a CG SO from the Marlins. Meanwhile the Marlins are just oozing with confidence. They shut down the offense that has gotten ahead of them every game so far. It ain't over yet.
  10. He was. The pitch got away from Beckett on accident and he had a hissy fit. Then he got frozen on the K. :fthecubs
  11. 3-0 Marlins Beckett is like God out there so far. 8 IP 0 R 0 ER 1 BB 2 H 11 K
  12. Zambrano needs to learn to STFU. 93 pitches through 4 innings isn't worth celebrating. And Sammy having his giant tantrum and then K'ing was so damn funny. I had tears in my eyes laughing so hard.
  13. http://www.buzzflash.com/buzzscripts/buzz.dll/sub3 In this interview from July, Rush is playing golf and says "nothing is wrong" with him. I don't buy his "my back pain is still happening so that's why I downed so many pills" excuse for a goddamned minute.
  14. I cheer for two teams..... the Chicago White Sox and whoever plays the Cubs. That's a goddamn way of life for me. A mantra. A credo. Whoever represents the AL, that's who I'm cheering for. I totally concur
  15. If Rush does go to prison...maybe he can get a cell with Tommy Chong. Does anybody else smell sitcom? ::hums Odd Couple theme::
  16. I just hope he gets prosecuted harshly and gets the harsh penalties that is always advocating on his show for drug offenders.
  17. 4-4 going to extra frames. The Cub fans in my dorm fell silent so I knew the Marlins had tied the game.
  18. My friend's uncle works for the BBC and other news agencies. He got invited by the State Department to speak as part of this journalistic panel they were putting together. So, he flies in and he has the invite from the State Department. Now this is a Muslim middle eastern man who has never committed a crime in his life and he's acclaimed as a journalist and writer. He was detained by the INS for 6 hours where he was interrogated and criminalized despite having the letter from the State Department. He told my friend that he was never coming back to the States ever.

    Hey apu

    Marxist thought primarily deals with economics and a lot of economic interpretations. It looks primarily how wealth and money is divided in the society, the different classes that come out as a result of that, how and what products are produced and where they are sold. Simply put, everything has an economic reason as the underlying cause. The people change the style of government to change the ownership and distribution of resources. damnit, you just threw me for a loop. Looks like I picked the wrong alley. Well thanks for your help, I am looking for the social parallel. Just talk about the social classes and exploitation and that is the reason they change the economics of the entire situation from feudalism to capitalism to socialism to communism.
