Haslett asked Marv to ask Ralph out for him. I heard they're going roller skating.

I thought the signal was Pat Robertson was going to wear a pink hat. My bad.

I'd be calling a lot too, wondering why my $400 million dollar franchise is sucking so bad after 5 years of rebuilding.

I guess I have some shopping to do. I had no idea suspenders were back. Horrible Link Also, anyone know where I can pick up that metal Darth Vader helmet?

Ummmm... Here's another picture of Cynthia It won't answer any of your questions but I think it provides a valuable service anyway.

Oh. My. God. That's unimaginably awful, but he's going to have a hard time topping these guys.

I always thought she was good looking, and she still is. Plus it looked like she made a helluva breakfast - pancakes, bacon, possibly eggs - on last night's show so that's another huge plus right there.

Word. I could imagine if the Bills had traded up and gotten Big Ben before the Steelers and then Pittsburgh ended up drafting JP, we might be seeing the exact opposite posts today with regard to the QB situation. People would be complaining about Donahoe passing up a chance at JP for Big Ben. Without an offensive line, it doesn't matter who our QB is.

For review: Cynthia Watros Hurley Nope. No way. No frikkin way.

I've allowed myself to go along for the ride whereever this show wants to take me. Crazy coincidences. Smoke with faces in it that is a monster. Claire losing her baby weight instantly. People in the tail section surviving the crash. Anything. BUT...if they have that blonde hottie get it on with Hurley, that will be the exact moment where the show gets too unrealistic and I have to go find something else to watch.

"Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons, but that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part. "

Patriotic Act?

Al Qaeda hasn't provided any proof that OBL is alive in over a year. For such a great figurehead, he sure keeps a low profile.

BUMP. Seriously, if you haven't checked out the festival of metrosexual idiocy going on at this link, you're really missing out. I didn't think people like this even existed in real life.

Supposed to be 550 million by 2050.

Yeah, but that's because he still hasn't given us the signal yet.

So you're saying we're screwed then.

I made it to page 10 and I'm going to read the rest first thing tomorrow.

I agree with this. It must be terrible to have your father be the HC of an NFL team (in a town like Buffalo) when things aren't going well. Kids in school usually don't even need a reason to be cruel and you can only imagine what a bunch of smartasses would say about your dad. That said, I'm not convinced he's really leaving just because his family is under durress. Weren't they under durress about 8 days ago when he gave the PC about staying? There's more to this than the family business. Maybe those reports of the meetings between Ralph and MM not going so well were true after all.

Seven Roads to Hell is a first person account written by a paratrooper who fought at Bastogne. It's a good companion piece to the Stephen Ambrose books because it provides the entire battle from the perspective of one man fighting in it. EDIT: Here's a link

And the list of people who killed before coming to the island keeps growing....

I thought I say an image of one of the Virgin Mary statues in the smoke as well.

Of course, the problem with this is that you're judging the group by the actions of a few. Isn't that where stereotypes (including racial stereotypes) come from? We could probably scoop together a few anecdotes the portray just about every minority negatively. Would that be fair?

I'm on the defense? That's cute. Just remember, you're the guy who can't even keep track of who is saying what and, more often than not, just decides to stretch what anyone else says to fit your rebuttal. Like so: You've put so many words in my mouth right there, it's hard to keep track. What a shock. Anyways, seeing as how you think white racism is sweeping the nation and resulting in massive persecution of all black people (see, I can pretend you say things too) and I am in fact white, I'm probably in an OK position to comment on how white people really may feel about black people. Especially from a standpoint of someone in a younger generation than yourself. Or are only black people allowed to comment on racism? The people who are supposedly so racist aren't allowed to speak on it? There you go again with "no racists." Are you working with some sort of "When in doubt, make stuff up" playbook? Anyways, I find it interesting that you don't want me to comment on racism from the standpoint of a white person (which I am) but continue to implore me to explain why some black people feel the way they do. Are you trying to tell me that the race card has never been used inappropriately? Are you trying to tell me that black people are not capable of having incorrect ideas about how white people may feel? Feel free to misinterpret/distort/invert everything I just said. I'm sure you will anyway. And you've still failed to convince me in any way that America is full of racists persecuting black people. You should actually give that a try when you aren't calling me a 'boy' or making an ass out of yourself over the word "mass."

No, that's not my point and you know that. My point all along has been that the race issue is overblown. Everything you just wrote is crap because I never said there was "no racism." Keep digging. Again with the "no racism" tag. Hilarious. One of my first posts in this thread was where I stated that racism was never going to end. Remember when I said there would be no VOR Day like you wanted? Here's a reminder: Black entertainers as proof? No. That fact that anyone of any color can be a popular and influential figure in this country? Yes. No duh. You should do some reading yourself. Earlier in the thread I said there would never be an end to racism. Then again, you do have this miraculous ability to read things that people don't write. Nice example. Here's what I wrote above: I see the word 'mass' in there. Do you? I put it in bold to help you. Your lack of honesty in this thread is staggering. How embarassing for you that a 24 year old 'boy' can take you to the woodshed on something like this.
