No, but they are a great place to spot YP, and to meet nice people. From my experience, the best place to pick up single women is rehab.

yes. My family and I enjoyed it. rude is in the eye of the beholder. also I didn't understand the question so much.

bin laden was a big football fan?

did it have a beat that went boom, patang boom, patang boom--broin?

She had abandoned the river for a bigger, blander, humorless and over-sensitive river.

This is what the tweet said: "Obama to NBC: 'if you ask Michelle, "Do we-- do we want to be involved in another war?" The answer is no.'" It was the article and the headline to the article you linked to that said "Michelle Obama Opposes Syria Strike" She may very well have been referring to Syria, but that's not what the tweet says. It's what the article says.

what a silly police officer. he obviously did not read the article.

I respectfully disagree with you. I can totally see the first lady saying, in another set of circumstances: "this war is necessary, so we shall all make sacrifices and dig in, blah blah blah" but not "yes, I want the country to be involved in another war." The question posed was "do we want to be involved in another war?"

you realize that claiming you've proven someone's motive in making a post by posting links to, well, really pretty much anything is a logical fallacy, right?

as though the First Lady of the United States of America would answer "yes, yes, I would very much like for the country to be involved in another war. As soon as possible, please."

on some level I've always felt quite a few parallels to The Sopranos with this show, and this is one of the key ones. the characters are so human. None is without baggage/demons (except Walter, Jr. for the most part). they keep you rooting for someone in the scene at hand but then 5 minutes later you want the same character throttled. Such great writing.

yes, except that this assumes that rifle bullets can't penetrate portions of cars.

who do you think gets killed in the shootout? they are certainly setting us up for a Hank death in light of the whole lovey-dovey call with Marie.

yes. Not sure how I feel about all the stuff Walt said in the call to Jesse while in the car, and him bolting to the site of the money without any thought or hesitation. but I remain loyal and trusting that it will continue to spin and kick ass.

maybe it's just your rhetorical style, but the fact that you paint anyone who disagrees with your views as "crazy" makes it difficult to engage in any substantively rewarding conversations with you.

the answer to both questions is 7

He thinks our president is a homosexual and that Via Chicago members are cave-dwelling folk.

I saw Crystal Gayle perform in Nashville, TN circa 1993. It did not affect my brown eyes.

Interesting article on Putin's perspective

gracias. (see what I did there?)

How can you be sure though? I think it's possible that the people bombing abortion clinics may really believe that what they're doing is sanctioned by the god they believe in. I can imagine the same thing being true for Al-Qaeda members. I don't know that you can say for certain that they're subverting religion--in the sense that they may have another more dominant motive. Maybe I'm just misinterpreting what you mean by "subvert" I assure you I have no large ideas.

I think Al-Qaeda counts as a significant entity (as opposed to a half dozen whacko Christians who bomb an abortion clinic--is what I was getting at).

In a lot of the vitriolic stuff I read back and forth between politically charged Americans about foreign policy, this idea of Muslim aggression/terrorism vs. past Christian aggression/oppression/imperialism gets hinted at or put in the forefront ("you think the Muslims have killed some people, look at the billions the Christians slaughtered" etc.) It seems that the Christians are much better at the PR of it--they've come up with better cover stories. I am curious about when the last time Christians just came right out and said "hey, we're killing these assholes for Christ." of course not
