Scientist, sorry I got involved in this thread, taking a dig at you. Whether or not you are enjoying the level of success described here is no business of mine. Assuming for the moment that you are, it's interesting the way people immediately want to cut you down, isn't it? The idea...

Those damn Republicans. They're all hat and no cattle. :)

My personal fave was the one where all those black belts start attacking him and he calmly and deftly blocks and evades them. No sweat for ole Scientist. If he and my little cousin -- who's eleven and who recently tipped off the FBI and thus saved the Sears tower from terrorists -- ever team...

I couldn't have described you better myself! Thankfully, we have a lot of intelligent, highly educated people deciding that pure determinist models of the universe leave a lot to be desired and are FAR from the be all end all that their supporters make them out to be. Unfortunately for...

Gekko, seriously now, I urge you to do just that yourself. Because boy o fucking boy are you way off base if you think the case is as open/shut as you love to believe it is. (And why do you love to believe it: pyschology).

Being a strong leader doesn't always require having "original thoughts". What did you think of my "bongrider"?

Wow, young students loved Dean. Who'da thunk it! What a turn up for the books that one must have been!

Guardian Angel, you are obviously new here. Believe me when I tell you you are wasting your time with these guys. You'll only serve to waste your time and become infuriated doing it. Trust me on this one.

Maybe not "most" Muslims, but very significant numbers either (a) do do just that or (b) wholeheartedly support such actions and the Koranic justification for such actions and (c) have very significant portions of the religious leadership, which in Islam is endowed with the responsibilty of...

Dt-waw, whilst that may be the case for a lot of religious folks, it certainly wasn't the case for me. Go check out my earliest posts on ET about what I had to say about religion, Christianity in particular. Why is it so hard for some of you to grasp that a person (me, for example) might...

Holy smokes! This kid deserves to have a religion named after him. Gekko, take a bow, you've outdone yourself this time buddy. This has had me in stitches for a good ten minutes.:D

Oh bullshit. 9 milion?!? Who estimated that? Axeman? Lol.

Axeman, why be such a dumbfuck for? It's not becoming of you. What is this perverse pleasure you get from bagging Christianity every chance you get? You're scary. Ok, so you "wasted" some years of your life being a Christian and now you're all upset about. You're not the only one, bro...

Firstly, 10% in selling costs? Is that for real? (I'm not in the US). That's quite exorbitant! Secondly, you must be in one of the high state CGT states right? Because for a no-state CGT seller he could well be looking at less than 20% CGT, including the recapture. Thirdly, I think a...

Nope.

I don't know what this guy is talking about, fleance. I have purchased four ebooks from Amazon and they downloaded with no problems. (Both Microsoft and Adobe varieties.) If I log into my account at Amazon I have the option to click a button, "Download Again". Even though I've already...

Los Angeles- December 1, 2003 (Reuters) Hollywood's biggest stars, and in some cases Hollywood's most liberal entertainment personalities feted President Bush and California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger during an Israeli Bond fundraiser held Sunday night at Barbra Streisand's palatial...

Man, that is BRILLIANT, I LUV it!!! Did you come up with that one yourself? Damn, only 3 years too late. That one would have probably swayed the entire result alone.

Yep, still laughing! :) You're last line above has me in stitches! And it's not so "sad": richest is he whose pleasures are cheapest (or something like that.) Btw, interesting name. What is that, French? (Did you mean, "Sylvain Garneau"?)

Elkem Metals!!! Hmph! That's the last time I'm doing business with them!
