Perhaps we could eat rocks, if they weren't too large. I think a well balanced diet could include both plant and rock material. We could all eat FRuiTY PeBBLeS.

Yeah, but what's the markup of paying for gym membership compared to owning the equipment, which you can use anytime you want when it's in your own house. Why not check out E-bay, I'm sure you can get whatever you want, with substantial markdown.

Personally I lean toward the do it at home attitude. For one thing, there's so much available to buy, why spend the money to join a gym where you have to wait for the last sweaty stranger to get off the equipment, when you could use that money to own your own at home. Where I live people...

There was a Twilight Zone episode where aliens came to bring humans back to their planet. They brought with them a book called "To Serve Man". The people got on the spaceship expecting to be treated as royalty on the other planet. Then the guy came running up as the doors were closing on the...

http://www.kinston.com/Details.cfm?StoryID=11561 Walk into the animal shelter operated by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and your greeter is likely to be Jack. He's sophistication with a touch of down-home comfort. He's generosity with underlying steel. He's as...

Make that 78. Which puts me 28 posts ahead of you. Keep nibbling around the edges, bunny. Slow and steady wins the race, y'hare?

Demonize Saddam Hussein, get the country foamed up about Iraq, and they'll forget about the fact that after dropping all those bombs on Afghanistan and killing thousands of civilians, we never did manage to find Osama Bin Hidden. Now, when they can neither turn up Saddam's WMD nor Saddam...

Not for long. Unic-rn (praised be Its name) was just getting warmed up on Elf. Unic-rn is getting ready to stick Its defining feature all the way up Satan's intergalactic Black Hole. To hell with the Devil! Our horsey, who art and music in heaven, hollow be thy horn. Thy stablehand come, thy...

I wasn't regurgitating previous posts. Things that I have written may well have been written by others in other posts, but that's only because the same issues are there to be seen by anyone with their eyes even partially open. One more thing I will add that was discussed by Noam Chomsky: the...

All that the war hawks know about or care about is their desire to drive their high-horse motor vehicles around with the biggest most blatant flag flying off it. Beyond any propoganda that can be used to rationalize this country's military actions, they have no interest in learning anything...

But the United Nations official inspector's mission into Iraq was some kind of inept joke that in your opinion should be taken to corroborate nothing? Do you think the United Nations really sent in some bureaucratic boob to spend a sightseeing week in Iraq where all he really focused on was the...

I suggest that the Chit Chat forum be distinguished from the trading forums by removing it from the Main Page list of forums with recent threads. And while we're at it, the Feedback forum could receive the same treatment. Maybe that will fix the problem. And anyone who doesn't like my...

There was never any question that we would win this war. It's precisely because Iraq was the weakest country in the region that they were chosen to be the subject of our attack. Yeah, the "others" get shit done. No need for quotation marks around the word shit even. When you get enough...

Noam Chomsky gave a talk this last thursday evening entitled "Iraq And The U.S. Imperial Grand Strategy" that covered this whole business, including the historical precedents and the true reasons for everything that's going on vs. the purported reasons. In fact, I think Chomsky is scheduled to...

Sorry, Corso, my invisible flying magical unicorn skewered your elf up the elf-butt. What can you do, unicorns are not tame creatures, and they obey no law but their own nature, especially the invisible flying magical ones. I'm sending you some Lucky Charms marshmallows to console you at...

Lies and more lies. Who Said What When *Simply stated, there is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction. Dick Cheney August 26, 2002 - - - *Right now, Iraq is expanding and improving facilities that were used for the production of biological weapons...

Gambling has little to do with life expectancy unless you're doing it with the mafia and borrowing from loan sharks. The meat your grandmother ate probably had a lot less of the chemical crap in it that is in today's meats and cheeses. (I am HUGE!)

The administration IS accomplishing its goals. Oh yes indeed. However, its goals, and its stated or purported goals are two very different things. We don't know where the WMD are because there are, and all along were, no WMD. That was all a bogus pretext. The outrage, where is it? It's in...

I vote for A. They not only are not concerned with capturing either of them, but they deliberately want them to be mysterious unapprehended boogeymen whose alleged presence here and there and everywhere can be dredged up to fan the flames of American anti-terrorism pro-war hysteria for any...

A reader from Ft. Worth, Texas United States "All my life I was a nice guy. I was raised in a traditional family household. I grew up believing that people were to be treated as you would like them to treat you. In a perfect world this would be great, but clearly it's not a perfect world...
