  1. As much as I would like to see him lose I have thought since the beginning that he would win but it will be close. If not in the college definately in the popular. Edited. Thanks PJ. One of the many spelling problems I have. "Truth is tough.

  2. I have no opinion on th edocuments one way or the other but I find it interesting that the only statemnet I have heard from the Bush camp so far is "He was honorable discharged." No dispute of the documents, just the final dispostion of his term. "Truth is tough.

  3. Latest track is here Slamming Jamiaca now. But what I have heard is they really are not sure what will happen after it crosses Cuba. Could go west or continue north "Truth is tough.

  4. Head for the Green Parrot Bar. It will survive! See the keys on your hands and knees. Key West a sunny place for shady people. "Truth is tough.

  5. You are talking about 95% of the population of the alley then. Most of those with protection down here at the south end are from out of town. It is like anyting else, it has to hit home first or be so scary that you freak just thinking about it. I have lived in various parts of the alley for most of my life and never seen a tornado yet many have been very near. I have interior closets and bathrooms, why do I need a secial shelter?

  6. Hell two or three inches shuts things down for two or three days. Twenty four would cripple that state as bad as W did. "Truth is tough.

  7. I have large thumbs and big toes... "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
  8. How about the, from what I heard, cool combo dive with you on the board and a group of divers circled around you? Granted you got spanked for that but from what I heard it was "fun had by all."

  9. Bold talk for one so young in the sport. Yes I am young too so it takes one to know one. "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
  10. I have yet to observe you in the air but I have seen you landing and seen pictures. I would love to try it one day. "Truth is tough.

  11. No it was the Men In Black! Secrets about ET's and all that. "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
  12. In that I have not heard anyone else say it I claim it as an original thought. "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
  13. All of these hurricanes are just a warning. If they screw up the next election tidal waves are on the way. "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
  14. So I presume that you approve of the war in Afghanistan. I oppose our actions in Iraq but not what we tried to do in Afghanistan. I think we are botching it there but I understand and agree with why we did it. Had we concentrated on stopping AQ and not gotten distracted by Iraq our message would be clear. "Don't f*ck with us and we won't f*ck with you. F*ck with us and you are toast." By going in to Iraq we look like we are making a power grab and using AQ as an excuse. For cryin' out loud they are now talking about free elections but not everywhere. Any hotbeds of insurgent activity won't get to vote. Damn that is democratic. "Truth is tough.

  15. Well how do you describe occupying a country? Frankly it really doesn't matter how we describe it if the people living in the country feel they are occupied then they are. But in this case that doesn't even matter. What matters is do the extremists think that the US is occupying Iraq? If they do they then use it as a recruitment tool. They use it to direct hatred towards the US which makes the US and Americans overseas less safe than they were in the past because it is more likely that additional attacks will be pulled off.

  16. By going in to Iraq, a country that had no direct involvement and quite probably no involvement at all with the events of 9/11 we made it clear we were far more interested in securing territory which we would then use to keep an eye on the middle east than we were in capturing the individuals responsible for the attack. This made it very easy for the extremists to recruit and made it clear in the extremists eyes that the US is anti-Islam. I am not saying that we are just that we have made it appear that way.

  17. PJ this is where you fall apart. You won't go find out where the opponents "lied", you leave it as an "exercise to the students." During my college career that usually meant something the teacher could not explain. "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
  18. These are the posts that really blow me away. I would have figurede you would be all over this as an example of the bad guys were all over us. "Truth is tough.

  19. Sorry but take a few minutes to live in the retail world that you depend on so much. In mass-marketing companies they have no opportunity to look at each little thing they purchase.

  20. Sorry but I remember how Governor GWB trashed Texas, no sympathy for the rest of the country. "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
  21. Read the whole thread, I have conceded defeat on CCL, or CCW or whatever the hell TLA you want to use "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes

  23. It is a scam and it will bounce, Why would he be giving the money away? "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
  24. Yeah but not as bad as statistics.. True but if you didn't take it would wouldn't understand that there are statistically significant parts of life that suck. "Truth is tough.

  25. Give it a month to clear and keep the excess. "Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at evening." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes
