  1. I think we might disagree about this as a definition. Its not a definition of a union, but it is an attribute. I'd be interested in seeing your disagreement spelled out. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  2. Or maybe it was just a principled stand. Unions are a government sanctioned and enforced monopoly. Sometimes they need to be reined in. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  3. Which pretty much sums up the hypocrisy of some people in that party. What I essentially hear them saying is, "Actors speaking out on political issues is BAD . . . unless it serves "our" purposes." Same goes for union leaders . . . Don't forget Charleton (sp?) Heston. What exactly are you referring to with regards to union leaders? --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  4. Awesome. What an amazing guy. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  5. That's not true - I was a very poor kid, and ended up going to a top-notch private school costing over $30K a year. Scholarships helped, but it was mostly loans. I made an investment in my own future, rather than expecting somebody else to do it for me. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  6. The look on Bush's face is priceless. Supposedly, here were his comments from the pardoning. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  7. Now THAT is a beautiful rig. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  8. Read my profile. It will explain everything. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  9. Doh! --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  10. http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2004-11-13-cheney_x.htm Hilarious headline on Fark for this one - "Bush notified, ready to assume power if necessary". --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  11. No, you were engaging in mental masturbation over outlandish and thoroughly debunked conspiracy theories. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  12. If you like used bookstores, come down to North Texas sometime and visit Larry McMurtry's bookstore in Archer City. I've bought some good stuff there. Skydive Dallas isn't too far away, either. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  13. Can we just make that a sticky? --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  14. Based on our government's relationships with China, France, Pakistan, and a host of other countries it seems you're not the only one who thinks so. But good on you for acknowledging the obvious. Tough call my ass. Sometimes, people are just motherfuckers, even if they managed somehow to take over a country. Sometimes, its just that easy. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  15. Bullshit. They would have lost their oppressor. Sure, show some respect to the syncopants who like living in a communist society, and at the same time diss those who have yearned for freedom under his thumb. Very revealing choice you've made there. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  16. Nope, its perfect for the UN, a pathetic organization of dictators and anti-semites. They kissed his ass when he was alive, why should it be any different now? --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  17. Can we keep our toothbrushes? --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  18. There are almost twice as many Christians in the world as there are Muslims. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  19. Here's another one, from my neck of the woods- Clicky The irony of being killed by a Taser for stealing electricity aside, this seems like a pretty lame cause for using a Taser. Sure, the guy's a shitbag for stealing electricity, but this is a classic case of the bar for violence from a police officer towards a member of the public being lowered too far. I think Tasers are to be used for self-defense, not to make it easier to move people around. And now he's dead. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  20. I dunno, how bad do you think John Kerry wanted to be first lady? I'm not convinced. Her house is probably nicer than the White House, and not filled with bureaucrats and sycophants. Being the First Lady means you lose your freedom. I doubt she thought it was worth it to be able to serve cocktails at the White House. Of course, I'm just theorizing, but so are you. All that being said, I didn't want her to be First Lady either. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  21. I actually liked THK. Sure, she was brash and kinda bitchy, but I really don't think she was particularly happy with keeping god-awful hours moving around with the traveling circus that is a presidential campaign. She didn't want it. I think she just wanted to sit around in her Chanels, drink wine, travel, and enjoy the good life. I give her props for supporting her husband's efforts while getting bashed from every angle. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  22. When I got my rig it needed to be re-packed anyway, so it worked out well to have the seller ship it to my rigger. She repacked it and made sure I paid him. Kinda an escrow thing, I guess. I'd make sure to give the rigger a little something for asking them to take responsibility for your transaction, though. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  23. Yeah, same bunch of sycophants that Kerry wanted to administer the "global test". And yet liberals wonder why we should give a damn what a bunch of spineless foreign beaurocrats with their own opposing agendas think about our foreign policy. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  24. No. I'm polite here. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
  25. Its a lot easier when not as many people are trying to immigrate. --------------------------------------------------------------- There is a fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness'. --Dave Barry
