    Whoa Baby! What happened?

    Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

    A Moral Dilemma

    Move the tracks halfway so that the train jumps the tracks and hope that the end doesn't whip around and kill me in the process.

    Pray for the families of our lost astronauts

    Probably because they're willing to strap themselves inside a container being propelled by millions of pounds of solid and liquid fuel with odds of 1 in 438 (NASA) that they won't make it back -- all for the advancement of science so that you can enjoy the benefits here on Earth.

    Pray for the families of our lost astronauts

    I'm just speaking from my own experiences. I can recall the day Challenger exploded much more clearly than any plane crash. I think a big difference is that there are thousands of takeoffs each day with airplanes but only one shuttle launch every so often. Plus, they don't spend...

    Pray for the families of our lost astronauts

    This is absolutely horrible. I can't believe this. 17 years ago and a week or so, we lost the space shuttle Challenger. I am absolutely in awe. This is another moment in one's life that they will never forget. I am so sad. This shuttle carried an Israeli astronaut apparently. I have...

    Kasparov vs Deep Junior

    I hate to say it but I'm secretly routing for the computer (just so I can watch Nitro eat shit). :D

    Kasparov vs Deep Junior

    He did blunder, but what is really amazing to see is how well Deep Junior is playing. Usually, when you are playing an open game with a computer, it is the worst case scenerio since the computer has a much better ability with open games than closed ones. He was trying for a perpetual check...

    Universe - Life - Purpose - Existence?

    What if the creator exists outside of the concept of "time" and actually created time with this reality? Then, asking what he was doing for so long before the universe came around would be equivelent to standing dead-center on the North Pole and trying to walk north. If you are precisely at...

    Universe - Life - Purpose - Existence?

    Well that's very true. So then what is it? Is the state of being both black and white called a state of gray or is it a state of being two different states at once? That is illogical to me but that's just my human logic. So it is illogical to me for something to be in two states at...

    Coming soon to the trash compost area of chit-chat is the gollum creature Gordon who seeks the fabled ring of Babak. Gordon, who is often found rubbing something under the desk while whispering, "My precious!!!" is after the fabled ring! Will he get it? Will he defeat the censor-happy hobbit...

    The Hobbit Babak stars in the new film, "Lord of the Sewers!" This action packed film, staring psychopathic schizophrenics like Vinny and narcissistic Warton Ken Dolls named Mr. Market (Featured star in Mario Brothers Nintendo Game as Mario!!!) is a special effects film featuring the very best...

    closing/deleting legitmate "chit chat" threads

    I agree. If you feel that a thread is going no where, by all means close it. However, why delete the entire thread? That is just a tad bit extreme, isn't it? The hundred or two kilobytes that it takes up on a 100 gig hard-drive are inconsequential. Even in a landfill, there is probably a...

    Universe - Life - Purpose - Existence?

    They, You raise some great points. However, I don't feel that I can truly embrace an unbiased standpoint when it comes to religion. I often feel that there is "more" than this reality, yet I have no way of knowing or proving that. I understand that science makes a flower pretty so that...

    Universe - Life - Purpose - Existence?

    I don't think hallucinogens are any basis to derive a religion from. The only thing you are doing is severely bending your perception of reality. How does getting into an "altered state of consciousness" provide a proof for something beyond reality? The only thing you are doing is changing...

    Universe - Life - Purpose - Existence?

    I ask a simple question and seven pages later nobody can give me a clear answer. In fact, the poll itself is closely divided, with a few extra people believing that this is all just a fancy show-and-tell session. The evolution / creation debate is getting old. Anyone can look at the...

    IT'S ALL ABOUT THE OIL (isn't it?)

    What makes more sense? Wasting your time arguing about something that has already been set in motion? This isn't an election year and I *DID* vote. I just don't see how anyone is going to prevent history from repeating itself ... again, and again, and again ... However, what we CAN control...

    will computers ever take over the markets?

    Gordon, Do you read science fiction? Imagine if there was a replicator that could make anything you wanted and there was, essentially, an inexhaustible supply of anything because the technology was advanced enough to turn any type of atomic arrangement into some other atomic arrangement...

    IT'S ALL ABOUT THE OIL (isn't it?)

    I was talking to my friend about this entire situation and suddenly it dawned on both of us that this "armchair politics" that we all engage in is futile. So, instead of debating whether war is good or bad or for what reasons the U.S. is preparing for war and why they want it with Iraq, why...
