ROFL that was great.

@Jennifer:

Interesting.  That’s in order on the list under the map, I presume?

I’d have expected New York to be in the top 5.  Illinois I figured would have been much lower.

Yea I also thought New York would be at a much higher position too.  I wasn’t surprised to see my home state California to be at the top.  Stuff there is pretty expensive.  :-(

still here, though i am finding it difficult to get to a computer and check up on the site.

The thing is - this isn’t news. I’ve read about similar circumstances - innocent people fingered by mean neighbours and sent to be tortured and die in US prison camps. Even in medical journals.

Sadly this also undoubtably happened under Saddam as well - the only difference is that the US is now the criminal here. This is not to say that the US is as bad as Saddam was (this is more difficult to judge but IMO most US forces refrain from these practices). But no question in my mind that the US has not been acting with clean hands. The questions I have is exactly how widespread is the US misbehaving with regards to the big picture? Atrocities happen in all wars by all sides - war is hell. The clear difference now is that it gets reported more often. Maybe it happens (with US forces) more often than before, but again who knows for certain?

The other point is that sometimes, rarely, it may be necessary to resort to these sorts of tactics to prevent a worse disaster. When/if this is ever the case, I am glad I will never have to be the person to make this call (what if you are wrong :cry: ). But clearly in the case of Lyndie England, et al, this was a case of some evil miscreants who have not been punished sufficiently, IMO for their crimes.

@El:

Loved FF! Could see the potential for great storylines.

agreed. And they seemed to have a lot of fun with what they had too.

FOXDumbA$$e$ couldn’t see the best side of anything but MORE SPORTS!

and Paris :roll:

Did you memorize the lines as you watched(N), tape it or buy the DVD set.

(a)

I’m gonna get the DVD set when it has the series(three unaired eps.) and the “Serenity” movie.

me too.Mind you - i’ve seen all of the episodes a couple of times already . . . . I may see the movie again - i’ll make it a father-son night.

The voters are not unreasnoble, they just want more spending and less taxes. :)

Can you say, hello casino?

I think we just see the pictures of the WTC being hit, or falling, too much. Let those pictures rest, we should be watching something more positive.

I find myself on to minds of thought. When it first happened I would agree with the fact that the news coverage was CRAZY. Network TV, NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX had some 72 straight hours of coverage.

On the other side of the coin I don’t mind seeing pictures of it from time to time. The same as I don’t mind watching pearl harbor or moon landing footage on occasion.

All things in moderation :)

I think I answered this is a different section of forum before…
