Rescind the franchise of the fishies, burn their uniforms, and delete all of their games from the record books.

Isn't it always the first time (and last time) in a suicide pool? Don't do it man, it isn't worth it. As for any picks, why would I give that up when there is a survivor pool in the TBD contest? My picks will remain secret until I am eliminated (next week).

Winning/losing, containing or not? I think the only way you'd be able to tell for sure would be to create a parallel universe or two and try a few different approaches. Has our effort and the effort of other countries been perfect? No. Should we expect perfection? I haven't read the book you're reading but I'd hope the author would at least offer (detailed) alternative actions if he's being so critical.

It's nice too see you guys finished up the draft. After my selection of Martina McBride in the first round, I just left. Any word on who got Spacely's Sprockets and/or the Millennium Falcon?

IMO, you "Shaud" have picked Williams.

This proves my theory that Donahoe has soured on guys whose last names begin with S. He had been enamored with them until recently. Spikes is next.

Thanks for the pass. I think it's the first joke I've ever cut and paste and I don't remember seeing it. Sorry.

QUESTION: How do you tell the difference between Democrats, Republicans and Southern Republicans? ANSWER: Pose the following question: You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, raises the knife, and charges. You are carrying a Glock .40, and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. WHAT DO YOU DO? ------------------------------------------------------------- DEMOCRAT'S ANSWER: Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! Does the man look poor or Oppressed? Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack? Could we run away? What does my wife think? What about the kids? Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand? What does the law say about this situation? Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it? Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children? Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me? Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be contented just to wound me? If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me? Should I call 9-1-1? Why is this street so deserted? We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior. This is so confusing! I need to debate this with some friends for a few days and try to come to a consensus. REPUBLICAN'S ANSWER: BANG! SOUTHERN REPUBLICAN'S ANSWER: BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click....(sounds of reloading). BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! click. SOUTHERN REPUBLICAN'S DAUGHTER: "Nice grouping, Daddy! Were those the Winchester Silver Tips?"

Will he wear his chairman Mao outfit?

Who from PPP will be there? I'd like to go but may not be able to get there. I have a set plan every year for the opener. I may be able to swing by for a bit though.

Then that is a good draft. Picks 9, 11 and 14 were way too late. After 3 weeks you'll likely be able to trade any one of your four top runners for a top notch receiver.

Will he return to his home town of Lilliput?

Here's the compromise I prefer: Ricky comes back to the NFL and the dolphins franchise is retired.

I'm sure everyone thinks this looks like a good draft. What Peace Frog didn't mention is that there are only 2 teams in his league. Therefore this draft =RJ.

I share a negative opinion of this article (an another account of the interview I read from another source). We have different resons for our negative opinions. IMO Peter is looking in things in a vacuum and as a zero sum game. He doesn't like Bush therefore everything Bush does is wrong. I have a negative opinion of the article because of the arrogance of the man being interviewed. I don't understand how he can brag about the wonderful "infrastructure" and so forth and make comments as if it is going to be sooooo easy to catch OBL. We haven't caught him yet. We may indeed have a web around him, but whether we do or not this guy should shut his yap. Unless this is deliberate misinformation of some sort, this guy is a loser.

Does anyone know what happened to the French reporters that were being held in Iraq and the demands about the religious items at schools?

I'm so conservative I refer to Rush, Hannity and Michael Savage as "those left wing loonies", but Martina McBride could make me wear a Chairman Mao t-shirt.

How dare you insult him? He is the single best player in the history of the NFL.

Don't limit yourself to well known conservative chicks. If you think Barbra Streisand is hot, feel free to use her and just assume she wanted you to become a conservative. I would imagine most of the "answers" will be names with no known political affiliation. It might also be fun to use an extreme example like this: "I'm a lefty, but Michelle Malkin could make me join the NRA."

BiB posted this earlier. It is not 100% up to date but provides some info. It is about the conflict overall, not the siege. link BTW, If all these terrorists wanted was a separate government did they think they would get it via this act? Is there any way they could have possibly thought that their goal would be achieved by doing this? If so, why would they not seek to take more in the same or similar fashion? If not, why would they want to capture and kill hundreds of children? People who would do this offer no evidence that they could ever offer anything of value to the human race IMO. They may have had unfair circumstances thrust upon them in their individual lives, they may be angry at things around the world they see as unfair, they may have psychological problems, but they offer nothing but fear, suffering and death to the rest of us. They are too far gone. They must be found and killed. I wish it were not true, but it is. I wish there were another solution, but there is not. At the same time, we must do everything we can to be sure that new generations do not have incentives (or lack of options) to continue this. The Muslim community at large around the world must help in this effort. If they do not, the situation runs the risk of turning far uglier than it is now.

Here's a good question for all the PPPers. Which honey could make you switch from conservative to liberal or vice versa? If no one could, which one would you like to have give it a try?

I hope all goes well. Here I go saying something stupid........ Despite my impression that Clinton is (slightly) overweight, this really surprises me. He is young and generally gives off a vibe of being enrgetic and "healthy as a horse". I know that is stupid and these problems can happen to anyone but I'm still surprised. Here's to a quick and healthy recovery........

Her crusade to "take back the name" reminds me of an old (bad) song. Sing it with me will you? And a one and a two and a three......... She ran calling Wiiiiiiilllllllldddddd Fire.....She ran calling Willllllllldddddd Fire. She ran calliiiiiiiing Wiiiiii-iiiii-iiiii-iiilllllddddd Fire. Translation: The horse is long gone from the barn when it comes to that particular vernacular. BTW, I think the description of the procedure is what bothers people the most. I think the name partial birth abortion describes that procedure in a non-technical way. It is also true that non-controversial medical procedures and items have technical names and non-technical names. You know, like knee surgery, headaches, sore throat, chest pain, bypass, and funny bone. It shouldn't be surprising that this does. I have a question, Mick. Does calling someone a "Lamb of God" lessen their right to an opinion or does it merely mock them in an needless way?

Is that a sentence? What does it mean?

We should fire him now. If we go 1-3 in preseason we'll be out of the playoff race before the season even starts. Thank God the patsies have a couple losses too. At least we're staying close to them. Fire Gray before it is too late.
