Mosque coming to Ground Zero
Taro T replied to WisconsinBillzFan's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Isn't it also the one that was hawked by Tattoo's boss and came w/ "fine Corinthian leather?' If the call to prayers are all going to be started w/ a "ze plane, ze plane," I can see why people are up in arms about this. -
Questions and tips about the new board...

Works for me. -
Questions and tips about the new board...
Taro T replied to SDS's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The ability to delete a particular post is still there after 30 mins, I'd expect that to be the case for threads (but I don't start many, so I don't know that for fact). The 30 min time frame does seem pretty short to tweak a post or, as someone else posted earlier, to tone down (tone up? ) a critique of another poster. -

Scott, When I edited my original post using the quick editor, it didn't have the checkbox option to add the 'edited by' tag. I was going to check to see if I could do it using the full editor a few minutes later, and now it doesn't appear to give me the option to edit the post any more. Only the 'delete' 'reply' and 'multiquote' boxes are showing for me (post 46 in this thread). [edit] It is letting me go back into this post to edit, but isn't giving the option of the 'edited by' tag. If after I post this edit, I can't get back into the post, I'll add a reply in the 'questions' thread. [edit] It is allowing me to edit in 'quick edit'; I used the 'full editor' for the earlier edit in this post. [edit]But I still can't edit post 46 (not that I want to, just testing out the new toy). Is there a time limit on making edits?Nevermind. I saw your reply below after this most recent edit.

Yes.No. No.Yes. Other than that, it looks great. Good job. Thanks. [EDIT] It looks to be fixed now. Thanks.

'Explosion' of Swine Flu Cases Predicted
Taro T replied to Magox's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Surprisingly he keeps most of his conspiracy theories hockey related over there. The favorite one being that Ryan Miller can't stop shots from the point because his eyes aren't level. -
So what's the take on Obamanomics so far?
Taro T replied to Rob's House's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
And that's why the debt was going up by a lot closer to $1T/yr rather than $0.3T/yr during most of the last decade. "But the deficit's ONLY $350B, so we're good, right?" -

That surplus ONLY existed on paper by including social security receipts. You know monies that came in that were specifically designated to be spent (in the future) on paying out social security benefits. Remember Al Gore with his lockbox? If that social security money was taken out, there was still a deficit. Which is why the national debt continued to grow during a period of a "surplus." Which by definition CAN'T happen if you are running a true surplus. -
Ehh, TG, jw, whatever. Them fancy media guys, they're all the same.

It's pretty interesting seeing some of the true old timers coming out of the woodwork in this thread. Hopefully Lori responds to all the warm wishers and comes back to this zoo. If she doesn't hold the title of best TSW poster, she's gotta be damn close to getting that title fight. And I expect she'd win it too.

Here is a hint Trent is the starter
Taro T replied to bradjames24's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Until the league expands or Detroit and/or Oakland fold, the Bills can't be any worse than 30th. -
So if you're playing in throwback mode will it play that song for the Houston Oilers? (With the name changed obviously.)

Federal Reserve chimes in on Wall Street
Taro T replied to Magox's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Realizing that you are doing a "rent to own" (or whatever term you prefer) for these houses, the market value of the homes doesn't simply become what you state the price is. The market value is whatever price you can negotiate with a buyer. When a realtor shows them that houses are currently worth about $30k, they aren't going to be real happy w/ you asking for ~2 times that (not sure what you're charging in today's $'s (not interested enough to calculate it out), but if all you're getting is $120k over 20 yrs, then you aren't getting $120 for the house; you're probably getting less than $60k when you figure the defaults into your ror). And most likely they'd be offering you something that is closer to $30k. I hope you pull your idea off, but based on what you've put forth so far, I don't put much faith in it. -
How exactly do you figure that?

Taro T replied to Magox's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
If you are the only one buying these houses, then you ARE the market. And, as several have stated here repeatedly, those houses you buy will be compared to other recently purchased homes of comparable size (oddly enough the OTHER homes you have bought also at $30k) to determine the baseline market value. -
No, that was Bobby Brown. Levi Brown was the former governor of Kentucky that married Phyllis George and owned the Braves long enough for them to move to San Diego.

The final frontier for William Shatner?
Taro T replied to tomdayfan's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
The title of the thread made me think that Scotty had beamed Kirk up one final time. -
How the frig do you take a running back?

Speaking as one of the "1000's" of readers of this thread that hasn't been bothered to post in the thread, I am not convinced that he's a racist. I am convinced he's a troll that wants to come across as a racist. Whether he's stupid enough to be as racist as he comes across or even more idiotic because he's not a racist but gets his jollies by playing a racist on the intertubes; he is a Conner-level Zen idiot master. Does that count as "coming to his defense?" They aren't the only ones attacking you because they're the only ones that take issue with you. Tom, JA, and a couple of others are the only ones here that are calling you on your BS because they are the only ones here that have the patience to play the "Whack-a-Troll" Game for this long. But if it makes you feel any better, HA probably has 3.5 other friends that don't think you're a racist. Well, as mentioned above, he may only be a troll that likes to play a racist. Either way, the whining about coming across as a racist is getting old. And either way, he/she is definitely an idiot.

47% will pay zero federal income taxes
Taro T replied to KD in CA's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Well, speaking as an imaginary Japanese hockey legend, let me say sincerely Connar (sic) don't ever stop being you. Reading your shtick is one of the few pleasures left on this board. And if, on some unlikely possibility, what you post is actually legitimately how you view the world, please don't get your meds changed because, as mentioned previously, reading your shtick is one of the few pleasures left on this board.
