I just think some Roundup would do the trick.

Holy s***! For once, CK and I agree on something! I looked around FSN Chicago and couldn't find a place to vent to Fox. I think www.foxsports.com may have something. That being said...kick some ass and take some names, Chi Sox!

1) CHW 2) No 3) 1 4) Konerko 5) 8 6) 4 7) 3 8) No 9) Konerko 10) Yes Tiebreaker: 8.1

MTv still plays music? I thought it was just s***ty "reality" shows all over there now. :fthecubs

I went to high school with him [graduated in the same class] He got smashed really hard one time too when we were in the playoffs, if I remember correctly. He bounced back and smashed a bunch of teams after that. The kid is a pitching machine.

8-5!

YES! 7-5 WHITE SOX! Sandy drives that ball over the head of Beltran!

I believe in the players, but I don't think they should be used in a game against the first place team when we have a chance to sweep them...especially when it is Koch who has lost 10 mph off his fastball and has been struggling a helluva lot. [see Tampa Bay, see 7-6 game against the Cubs when he went *so* close to blowing the save there, et al] 1-2-3 inning with Koch? What are you smoking and where can I buy some? It sounds like some good hallucinagenic s***. Nearly every time he's in he walks people and makes people nearly have f***ing heart attacks before he closes out a game...that is if he doesn't give up a walk off HR like he did in Tampa, etc.

BMR, I remember when you had weakness yourself. Remember your recent ex? She s*** all over you and you still stayed with her until she pretty much almost turned you in at work and got your resignation. She did a lot of evil s*** to you and you still stayed with her. Why? Cuz you didn't want to be alone? Didn't want to be sad? Those are some of the same reasons why women don't leave wife beaters right off the bat. There is also the fear factor that if they do, the man will come get them and beat or murder them [as has happened in too many cases to count] It's not a cut and dry, black and white situation and cannot be justified with a "if they don't leave immediately, I will not feel sympathy for them". Fear can influence people greatly into doing certain things so they don't receive a harsh punishment.

Again, overcompensating your heterosexuality. You're gay, c'mon hypocrite say so!

Don't close it Heads...closing the thread is just gonna cause anger to not get vented and the such. I say let it all out...and hey, I can use the posts to pad my count.

Hey BMR...don't you have some crying and being depressed about the ex-girlfriend to go do?

I was thinking of PM'ing CW about this, but f*** that. I was gonna write this earlier but some circumstances prevented me from doing that where I couldn't get online. As the old statement goes, turnabout is fair play. I don't believe in knowing the following from them, I just thought that they deserve a little taste. So without further adieu...Clujer and BMR, for all the talk about homosexuals and wanting to know who they are...maybe you're looking for a date? Why don't you admit that your Puritanical witch hunt is just a justification for you to stay in the closet by over-affirming and over compensating your manhood? As you said BMR, "Get some balls and admit you're a hypocrite and a homosexual" I make that offer to you BMR and Clujer. Come on. If you like giving the online Spanish Inquisition about sexuality then how about receiving it? --- That being said, I don't give a f*** what any of you do with another consenting adult in your bedroom. Keep fighting the good fight, CW. Rock on And Jas, if you want to get on me on name calling PM me and I'll listen. This is a rare occurance since I've never been this outraged at two assholes before.

Cluj, I do happen to read newspapers amongst various news sources. In that reading, the Herald News of a few days ago mentioned: I am heterosexual. However, I have various friends that are homosexual and bisexual. And I'll be damned if they are gonna be hurt because a few stupid ass neanderthal thugs wanna hurt them mentally or physically because they think it's repulsive for them to have boy/boy or girl/girl relationships.

You do an excellent job bashing it CK. Now any constructive solutions to the problem of heterosexual hatred of homosexuals that would alleviate the necessity for the creation of such a high school?

Did you happen to look into a mirror while writing that? And OldRoman, the school isn't going to have many students. There are lots of predominantly African American schools. What stops racist whackjobs from shooting them up?

Kind of off topic but she kinda looks like a mini Ann Coulter. Leave it to the whore media to throw news stories all over the place before verifying the facts. Let's hear it for sensationalized garbage. I can't believe so many people are falling into the hype before pre-trial stuff has even begun. And last time I checked, if he wasn't a superstar we wouldn't have this plastered all over the news. How many other sexual assault cases get so much goddamned publicity? The public clamoring for every little detail and making their minds up then a new morsel comes out and a lot of people change their opinion faster than OldRoman Nobody knows all the facts of the case and it's wrong to assume that they can make a judgment about the case without the facts. Kobe is a human being. Who knows he may have done it and he may have not. Sorry for that tangent, I've had that in my system for a while. I do believe that this is tragic what happened to this girl. With all the media attention she is getting now, I hope that clears things up for her. I'd just wanna know how her photo leaked out sooooooo damn much. You figure that people might want to verify information before they post it as fact? /refrains from State of the Union uranium joke And I noticed this: Who the hell put her on hotornot.com?

I think this is a good option for people that would like to have this. We have alternative education for special ed kids, alternative education for gifted students. Taking education classes in UIUC, we were talking about how students can be alienated in the classroom and how this can effect their grades. Enter tangent. We had a woman who had done vast research in Hawaii [she was a native Hawaiian] about the grades of native Hawaiians compared to other kids in the school. She noticed that there were few, if any, native Hawaiian teachers in the school or even in the higher up positions in the school. The subject matter also did not even touch upon the native Hawaiian culture which alienated them further. They could not find identity and thusly their grades suffered. When some changes were made and more native Hawaiian teachers were hired and the course work changed a bit to encompass Hawaiian culture etc., their grades rose significantly. But remember, the heterosexual white male is the most oppressed person on the face of the earth. Lesbians, gays, transgendered, and bisexuals catch all sorts of hell for wanting to express emotions towards other people. We've been conditioned to fear the appearance of homosexuality and spend a great deal of our lives locking rigid "acceptable" gender roles that stifle self expression and end up making people "prove" their heterosexuality to everyone. The result...a crop of paranoid heterosexuals that tolerate as if homosexuality was a phase, acceptance as if it is to be simply either accepted or rejected and not appreciated as heterosexuality is, and outright repulsion. While I think that the school is a good option for those that would feel more comfortable there, I find it sad that we have to create schools like this simply because of rampant homophobes that make their lives living hell. And that is good that they named the school after Harvey Milk...at least one good thing came from the Twinkie defense.

Just a few days ago I caught some Mr. Bean on WTTW. I just wish they would play episodes of Monty Python's Flying Circus again.

I've had "Meanwhile Rick James" by Cake stuck in my head for a couple days now.

Insomnia is fun. And Spiff, I know a while ago you posted web sites about a program that blows up spyware and another that shows what things you can take out of the startup when you boot up to make a computer run faster. Could you PM me those links? Thanks.

Good to see you back safe Nuke. Especially after a Marine from my home town got wasted in Iraq recently.

Yes, let me move to California so I can give $3500+ to try to get in a recall over a s***ty "Democrat" governor [He is s***ty...no matter what his party affiliation is] Jas, I'd need to see where you stand on issues before I decided to vote for you. Hell, I think you'd have a shot if you get a good PR manager like Karl Rove. He even made Chimpy McWarHardon look competant. By the way Heather, why so bitter? Having so much anger over a person you met 1 time and only associate with vaguely on an internet message board doesn't seem like a good productive way to live. Have a nice day.
