Iflyme 0 #4 January 25, 2004 What wrong, Jimbo? Don't care about being lied to by your government, or having your neighbours kids sent to their death in a country where they don't even know what they are fighting for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallRate 0 #5 January 25, 2004 Actually, Jimbo might give the post a bit more consideration if he had the faintest reason to believe that Gary fives a fuck about the dead soldiers, instead of being quite giddy about the fact that he can use it to make a half-assed argument against the current administration.

gary350 0 #11 January 25, 2004 If 500 Americans are killed in Afghanistan, or fighting the real war on terror, you won't find me saying a word, except perhaps "Thank you brave kids for defending this country making it safer". That was/is needed, this was NOT. Especially when we could have used the couple HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS on real homeland security or going after Al Quada or any number of other worthy causes that would really make us safer. . .

gary350 0 #12 January 25, 2004 Quote *yawn* - Jim Wow - real patriot, huh? I'm sure their mothers and fathers would really appreciate the sentiment. Of course, why should you be any different than our president, who seems to have the same attitude, based on his attendance of their funerals and forbidding of even pictures being taken of their coffins. Truly shameful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bush forbade the press from taking pictures of the returning war dead solely to keep the left wing press from sensationalizing their return. The government did the same thing during the Vietnam war...for the same reasons. Dont tell me I dont know what I'm talking about. I was there. USN Graves Registration 71-72 bozo Pain is fleeting.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Jimbo 0 #19 January 25, 2004 QuoteJesus H Christ From http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a1_033.html Quote Dear Cecil: How come people always say "Jesus H. Christ"? Why not Jesus Q. Christ or Jesus R. Christ or something else? Does the H really stand for something? My future peace of mind depends on your answer. --W.B.T., Chicago Dear W.: The H stands for Harold, as in, "Our Father, who art in heaven, Harold be thy name" (snort). Actually, I've heard numerous explanations for the H over the years. The first is that it stands for "Holy," as in Jesus Holy Christ, a common enough blasphemy in the South, abridged to H by fast-talking Northerners. Other colorful Southern epithets include Jesus Hebe Christ and Jesus Hebrew Christ, which abbreviate the same way. The drawback of this account is that it is so boring I can barely type it without falling asleep. Luckily, the other theories are more entertaining: (1) It stands for "Haploid." This is an old bio major joke, referring to the unique (not to say immaculate) circumstances of Christ's conception. Having no biological father, J.C. was shortchanged in the chromosome department to the tune of one half. Ingenious, I'll admit, but whimsy has no place in a serious investigation such as this. (2) It recalls the H in the IHS logo emblazoned on much Christian paraphernalia. IHS dates from the earliest years of Christianity, being an abbreviation of "Jesus" in classical Greek characters. The Greek pronunciation is "Iesous," with the E sound being represented by the character eta, which looks like an H. When the symbol passed to Christian Romans, for whom an H was an H, the unaccountable character eventually became accepted as Jesus's middle initial. (3) Finally, a reader makes the claim that the H derives from the taunting Latin inscription INRH that was supposedly tacked on the cross by Roman soldiers: Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Hebrei (Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Hebrews). Trouble is, the inscription is usually given as INRI: Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Iudaeorum (J.C., King of the Jews). Nonetheless, this is the kind of creative thinking I like to see from my Teeming Millions. With every passing day, my mission on this earth comes closer to completion. --CECIL ADAMS - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
