Ye of unknown gender, age, or sexual orientation. (but not political...we know you are a John Birch warmonger) Yes, 23 or 24 was EXACTLY (one of you favorite words) the age of guys my age drafted who went to college and got teaching deferments as did I until the lottery, which was in December...

OK, here we go. A: Obviously December IS Chamonix awareness month. Says so right here in the current issue of "Compulsive's Monthly". interestingly, the "month" consists of a time period that is inclusive of all moments from July through December. But calendars are the field of expertise of...

:) I have been told (mostly by my kids) that I was from outer space. Maybe this the best explanation yet of why I would so foolishly behave in such an unearthly manner (to respond to an evil alien:confused: ) Nitro, no matter what, I have only been trying to do what Max has been doing. He...

OK Maxie....whatever. So I expressed what was a compilation for the sake of brevity. And I readily admitted it, and to YOU FIRST!....mistakenly thinking you were normal and would understand my reasoning. So now, months have passed, and still you are obsessing. Choose not to believe me. Who...

First off, do I really think you are a serial murderer? Not likely, but anything is possible. Certainly you have demonstrated anti social behavior that would not preclude anything. However that was not what I meant. What I meant with my allusion to "Son of Sam" was just your total detachment...

Max, You had all week to verify or discredit the entire Monte Carlo thing. But instead of even attempting to find out the truth, you just go on and on in your feeble attempts to make me, and anyone else who catches your attention look bad. Time to either deal with reality, or fade away...

Candle, This whole issue has gotten kind of muddied for sure. But understandably so for obvious reasons. If the US were to attack Iraq (a mistake IMO at this time), certainly it is very unlikely that Israel will not be drawn into the fray. Last time ('91) Israel showed "restraint" as...

I NEVER said that, or even implied that. Please, TF, do not put words in my mouth. I said there was rampant anti-semitism in France now (from what I read and what I have been told). I myself never experienced it first hand. What I DID experience, and it was over 20 years ago, was a feeling in...

One does not hoe a road; one hoes a row."As suspected," interesting. However, RS7, for you, there are no suspicions: Yup, I guess I am inept when it comes to farmer's jargon. Got me again. Very good. I will make an effort to stay clear of such egregious misuse of colloquialisms. You...

Well, at the suggestion of many, and to the satisfaction of all, I finally hired a private investigator to see what we could find out about Max. It was a tough road to hoe, but it paid off (in a very small way). Never knew where Max lived. He wouldn't say. Never knew if Max even traded. He...

Mother Superior calls all the nuns together. She then says to them, "I must tell you something very serious. We have a case of gonorrhea in the convent." A blonde nun in the back responds, "Thank God ... I'm so tired of Zinfandel."

True and True. Not an easy condition to deal with. Hopefully an educated new generation will take hold on both sides and see there is no possible resolution other than real coexistence and peace. We still have leaders on both sides that harbor resentments that arose before the partition of...

One last thought...yeah, lots of persecution going on. But IMO, the worst is the persecution of the Palestinian people by the Palestinian leaders!! Talk about a screwing! Sort of like the persecution of the Saudi people by their leaders. But in that case, it is a ROYAL screwing! :) PS...

Candle, I agree with your "solution". And I believe that it is quite like the Camp David Accord. All that is needed is a Palestinian leader that wants peace. And then it would happen very quickly! Peace, :)rs7

Candle, you are right...your thread. But it seems every time the USA is mentioned, we are somehow steered into a discussion by TF about how America is responsible for backing the "nazi" Israeli regime that so persecutes the poor Palestinian people. I said my (rather lengthy) piece to address...

Part 2: I really do try and keep up hope that there is enough peace to go around and that everyone can live in harmony. But the actions of "fundamentalist" and "extremist" Islamic leaders (and yes, followers too), sometimes leads me to believe that Daniel _M is perhaps more pragmatic in...

Part 1: (Sorry this response is so long...I feel like Darkhorse....but I don't know how else to respond to TF without a "cut and paste job". These are my thoughts, and anyone is obviously free to disregard them all) Yes, TF, I am fully aware that Arabs are "semites" and never did I call you...

Jerusalem is a holy city for not only muslims, but christians and jews as well. And Israel was willing to make it a separate city-state. But that did not satisfy the PA. Besides, you love going back in history. So tell me, how long was Jerusalem a holy place in Islam, and how long for the Jews...

I was pretty sure I specifically said Islamic Arab countries. If not, then I apologize for my inaccuracy. However, now that I have cleared the issue (hopefully) what rights do Islamic Women In Arab Countries have? And no I cannot go to Syria with a passport stamped in Israel. (for example)...

I try, and I go where I can go, and where I can afford to go. And of the countries you mentioned, which of them are Arab countries? Look, TF, I would be very happy to be proven wrong. I hope you can tell me that Islamic women in Saudi Arabia, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, etc. can vote, hold...
