I like Sun Tzu! It was always a challenge going against him in The Ancient Art of War computer game

Hmm... Since Kirk > Picard.... Gudarian > Rummel...

The Powell doctrine wasn't followed. Rumsfeld and the neo cons had other ideas on how things should be done. At least that's the take I got from the PBS Frontline special of Rumsfeld's War. Linky

Very astute observation.

You can try to woo me all you want with your smooth talking ways on government stuff, but I am still not inviting you over to shoot my cats!

Note to self: Never invite Darin over to house. Always meet in public place. Protect the kitties at all cost.

Kirk went back in time and created HotPockets®! Picard went back in time and formed NAMBLA ergo Kirk > Picard

I not admiting to anything other than laughing at your responses.

Damn, that was good!

Ah, all is clear now. Thanks!

Goat Story?!? I missed that one. Something tells me that's probably a good thing...

Ooohhh. What kind of HotPocket®?!? Did you ever get the Soylent Green ones where you are at?

Happy Birthday!

Kirk got demoted because he chose to save Spock. Think Picard would have done the same for Riker? Don't think so. Picard would have just kept Riker's body to fufill his necrophilia urges. ergo Kirk > Picard! Why does this revelation not suprise me You must like it for all the games included with it... On the command line yes, it's all lower case. But if you do a search, you will find that it is okay to use Vi when referencing the program.

Ha! Kirk = USA Picard = France ergo Kirk > Picard! P.S. Vi

Happy Birthday Bill!

I was actually thinking the same thing as I just came across this thread

As if don't already know the answer to that question

Well, aren't we the "hair splitting monkey" today?!? I guess I should ask what would have been an "appropriate" absurd statement to insert?

I give the nod to Reagan. Beefing up foreign policy and the miliitary where badly needed when he came to office and Reagan addressed those issues. On social issues, I am not a fan of Reagan, but that's another story. As for Carter, good honest person who was trying to do the right thing, just wasn't the right person for the job. He also got stuck holding the bag when inflation peaked under his watch for stuff started during LBJ's time. One of the better things he did do though (although he didn't directly benefit from it) was appoint Paul Volcker as Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board. Reagan benefitted rather nicely from this appointment.

Am I the only one here who got what Reuban was getting at? He was countering koolaid boy's "brilliant" statement about watergate being insignificant with an equally ridiculous statement to make a point.

So if you're not in tents, where do you two hang out? Tree stands?
