  1. Maybe they can all walk around behind each other for a while.

    One word : L E M M I N G

    Dare to be different...Now it's dare to be the same?
    No, Thank You.

  2. Ok, if "Darwinism" is to be involved and it is ok to change the course of whatever course nature would take then shouldn't we just sterilize them to protect themselves from themselves? I mean if it's ok to give them money so they can live longer and overpopulate even more than the food and land will provide for...then why not ...why not just help them not make more population...interveining with the course of nature is ok, right?

  4. Why not just make a new mandatory subject:
    Sesitivity training 1: for Highschool Freshmans
    Syn. - semester 1:How to curb your bullying feelings
    semester 2: I'm ok, You're ok
    Sophmores: Semester 1: You don't have to yell
    Semester 2: How to say "I am Sorry"
    And so on...

    While we are at it, why don't we comletely eliminate all sports programs.
    They offer too much competition.
    Yep, even the Debate Team and the Chess Club should be disbanned.
    Not to mention the science fair. Oooh Too many competitive feelings there.

    And we can fire all the teachers that actually expect a passing "Grade" and replace them
    "Holistic Healers" and "Spiritual Guides"! Do you think they would be "Soft" enough, Non-confrontational enough?

  6. OK, so I read the rest up to now. My question is still in dollar figures not percentages.

    There is always a way to make the numbers more insignificant. GDP being just one.

    How about this: What if...

    We called in all our markers.

    Everything that is owed to us should be paid to us by the end of the week....

  7. Before I scroll down and read all of this...I ask this...Dollar Figures - NOT percentages - What are the numbers.

  9. Why is it that we are always the "Rich Uncle" for most every country out there.

    Before I get flamed - Just consider what is owed to us and what we contribute.

    People think that we have a bad unemployment problem, and our welfare programs leave something to be desired.

    Truth be told, if we didn't spend so much on everyone else, we'd (probably) have enough to house, feed and clothe every homeless person here.

    Barring that - our tax rate would be a shit load less than it is now with the same quality of living.

    So I guess my question is ... Why do we have to pay for everyone else?
    Is it not our Tax dollars that fund all of this?

  10. So. What you are saying is that everyone who was named Richard is just S.O.L and has to be the ONLY referance for a Penis.

    I haven't looked too closely but has "Prick" been mentioned yet?

    Joe: LET'S GET MARRIED!!!
    Jane: OK!!!
    Joe: Excellent, call your lawyer to get the PRE-NUP ready
    Jane: you got it.



    Bwwaaaaahaha

    The only pre-nup I could see is that no matter what - if she tries to get me to stop skydiving - she has to pay me "jump alimony" for the rest of my life.

    hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt-ridden, delusional.


    Is this a referance to the french?

    You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.


    And just why is it that this is even an issue? I mean is there really a mentality out there that would even entertain the attitude that they should not have to work. And if there is... where did they get the idea?

    You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone.


    So does this mean that I have to become a liberal?

    Quote


    You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy by telling them they didn't warn you not to stick the screwdriver in your eye.



    I do think that acoupla mill is a little high to be paying for some spilled coffee. Come on! Like he didn't know he was ordering "Hot Coffee". I say that if he is so f--king stupid as to put it in his lap...If you're gonna be dumb...

    You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are the most charitable people to be found,


    Simple addition....look at the accounting sheet - it's not hard to add - What was the TOTAL DOLLAR AMOUNT compared to all other individual countries donated?

    Quote


    You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we should be wary of public health care or public anything.


    BINGO!

    Quote


    You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair (yes, capital punishment).


    OK, extreme? Yes! But rightly so.
    Perhaps if we let our country clubs...oh, I mean prisons actually deter these criminals from commiting crimes....DUH!!! If they were true prisons! Hard labor! Make it a bad place to go instead of a vacation.

    You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness.


    Yep! No one can make you happy. You have to do this all on your own. Try helping others...it does the trick for me.

    Ok, so the whole english speaking thing was a little overboard...but 9 out of 10 isn't bad.
    But we could all just drop the grading score a little more and perhaps the requirements as well and make it look even better than it is.

  18. I haven't been in the sport quite a year yet, but I have run across some superstitions.

    1) I was told that if you sign the last entry in a log book the jumper will at least make it through that one.

    2) If you really want to jump and the clouds are low ... Sacrifice your self for your friends and drink a beer...It's almost guaranteed to bring out the sun. Besides, if it doesn't you are already ahead of everyone else.:P
