How would you "burn off" this oil spill?

Sundays are for streaming nekkid video I guess. http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-20006703...g=2547-1_3-0-20

Who? What?

Netflixed it. It made money--probably rare for a documentary not made by Michael Moore. It was an amusing trip into the silly things people do and believe in practice of organized religion.

I don't know him much outside that movie so it beats me.

Religulous had it's pretty damn funny moments.

JSP, cool. Joe in Macungie, not cool. At that first tailgate, I remember SDS, NG, #89, Bob Lamb, and Darin's Limo. I am sure I met more people but I wasn't there long. I was up from Philly so I had other tailgates to attend to and probably only hung out for 45 minutes.

I've been around as long as anyone in other aliases...I was working in a cube at an environmental cleanup company outside Trenton that was eventually bought by the Shaw Group when the old D&C website led me over here. That was about '96 because it was before I went to law school in Fall '97. Could not have been '95...odd that TBD doesn't show up pre-98 at archive.org and my earliest appearance in their archive is '99 as "Philly Bills." (Holy shiite, there's even a picture of me at the first TBD tailgate on this site! Happy to see my mom and me hanging before the game.) And remember belinda well. Can't say I recall PLA though.

Waaah-mbulace on the way. Disposition means the cases are concluded. He might have been found not guilty. He might have pleaded guilty. He might have been found guilty. It's not an indication of the reult--just an indication that whatever proceeding was going on, it's now over.

They are all on the same Peace Train man.

Or November.

I was one-upping your sarcasm with my financial statements line. It was a shout-out to conner's bitching about how (Exxon?) won't share its financial statements because it's hiding something.

The government of course.

How do you know? Have you seen his financial statements?

http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/02/microso...ndows-calls-it/ I'm doing that American thing and starting to root for Microsoft,. Once the star, then dragged through the mud for a decade and now the underdog. Google and Apple are nearing their Zeniths. It will be interesting to see who emerges a the top dog in a decade. I love my Macs and iPhone but I'm happy to adopt any PC or phone that gets me what I want. Loyalty in high tech is a "What have you done for me today" game. Google and Apple are on top but that will change. Also you can say what you want about Bill Gates the pirate but the world has never seen anyone like Bill Gates the philanthropist. He's redefining what it means to to set up a philanthropic enterprise.

I still dig his Cat's in the Cradle.

I'd respect him more if he just said, "This will be hard to afford and your taxes will go up but at least we're providing health care to millions who don't have it." I wouldn't like it but I'd respect him for at least being on the level. This **** is just disrespectful. If I was running in 2012, I'd have that quote as my only campaign ad.

I was pretty specific. "Wants to" is way different than considering going through with having the sex. This guy is on the verge of pulling the trigger, which means he's way past fantasies.

That is insane. We run a 25M/year business and you can't imagine the paperwork nightmare such a provision creates. I now think of this thread as the Magox's last post wins thread..

A 32yo man who is thinking about going through with having sex with an 18yo girl is a pervert. That's a fact. I was at the beach this weekend and saw a lot of girls in this range:16-22 and I'd have to say that although they are beautiful, I wouldn't sleep or even fantasize about sleeping with (really it's true) any of them. Maybe it's because I've got a daughter but I think it's just a maturity thing. I look at women in that range as "girls" and the last time I looked at them as desireable, I was in that range. By the time I was 30, I had little desire to look back at the younger girls. I like a brain with similar life experience to be opposite me. (Now if that brain is in a nice package, that's an added bonus.)

They were worried about their teeth.

It's incredible to see the most common reaction from both the left and right in this thread is a kind of "Who cares...it's scummy but it's minor compared to other problems." That's a problem. I say investigate and bring it all to light. I don't care if it avoided the crime--they certainly didn't avoid the intent of that law, which is that you shouldn't interfere in elections the way Obama did. In November, fire everyone you can. !@#$ these !@#$s.

I miss things on these boards--I am sorry to hear about your wife man. That's awful. I hope the treatments are going well.

What is surprising is that the investment bankers and AIG (and the AIG-clones) and the ratings agencies got into such a death spiral of greed that banks would drop those kind of requirements and just start giving loans to damn near anyone in the first place. The investment banks created an atmosphere of such mania over the mortgage backed securities that banks were under a huge pressure to keep making more...and the more they made, the more that could be backaged into the securities...which Moody's and others then waved a magic wand over and created AAA bonds from...which could then be traded on for jillions of dollars...creating the need and on and on. Michael Lewis's The Big Short is a fantastically readable treatment of this.

I work out every day for my entire life. It doesn't hurt. But weight loss is 100% about burning more than you eat.
