Truthfully, I only <i>seem</i> to have that degree of empathy. Howard Hughes did some great things for mankind, but none of them were really done out of any true humanitarian motive. (Hint: It's not about money either.)

Bingo! Another hallmark trait of Endorphin Deficiency Syndrome is oversensitivity to pain. Anyone ever diagnose you with Chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis/fibromyalgia by any chance? Does any of this sound familiar?: <i> Pain: Pain in CFS may include muscle pain, joint...

<b>I am the KING of pattern recognition! Bring me your second-finest meats and cheeses!</b>

You still don't get it. I do not 'hate' any race! Racism is the ugliest form of collectivism, and I'm a pure individualist. What I <b>do</b> hate, is violent collectivist philosophies- and those who possess them. I'm not a big fan of dishonesty either, including yours.

He didn't blow up his account in July. He did that in June. Bighitler=hedgeking, 100% positive.

Now, I'm not all that familiar with the New Testament, but wasn't it the Romans who did that?

I highly doubt it. Using only conventional weaponry, the IDF could slice through Syria like a warm knife through humus. Blue & White flags would be flying over Damascus next week, if that's what Israel wanted to do.

...and as Israel's enemies come up with responses similar to yours, this indicates to Israel that <i>the message*</i> has not yet been successfully conveyed. Time to serve up another generous helping of <b>PAIN</b>, until <i>the message</i> is finally properly understood. *The message, once...

Sometimes in war, diplomacy & 'proportional responses' fail to resolve the conflict. Sometimes, the only way to get <b>your point*</b> across, is to cause a Dresden or Hiroshima. Despite having the military capability to cause such pain to her enemies, Israel hasn't done it... yet...

Besides the whole 'Honor & Pride above all else' thing, another interesting cultural phenomenon, unique to Arab society, is the ability of guys like bighitter to <b>actually believe their own lies</b>. This old joke reveals much. It is not meant to be racist, but to point out important...

I hereby give any and all EchoTrade/Pax employees full permission to verify, with a simple yes or no answer, whether the blotters I've posted to the P/L thread are authentic or not.

Guys, please quit PMing me with questions about my trading. Motivating me to give up bits of trading info isn't impossible- but no one has <b>ever</b> done it by just asking nicely. I'm not posting my numbers out of any desire to teach others what I do (so they can get in my way)- I just...

...and unbacked fiat currencies are somehow a <i>safer</i> store of wealth? Good luck with that. ____________ In the early days of the U.S.A., every dollar was exchangeable for 412.5 grains of 90% silver. Paper money was merely a conveniently portable 'place holder'. It was a certificate of...

<b>Muslims hated more than Jews worldwide:</b> <img src=http://pewglobal.org/reports/images/248-6.gif> Now you know actual polling data, and not just the speculations of some guy on the internet. http://pewglobal.org/reports/display.php?ReportID=248

Could you please show him this post? Here's what he needs to know, right away: *If the neurotransmitter reuptake inhibitors haven't already worked for you, they never will. Your problem lies not in serotonin/dopamine/norepinephrine, but the endogenous opioids. *ECT can only 'reboot' your...

Well... does quelling violent prison riots count as 'combat'?

<b>WHY?</b> Why was I an entirely different person in the 18 years before my military service? I was obedient, risk-averse, unadventurous, and content. I was respectful of authority, tradition, and society’s hierarchies. All of this changed when I '<i>cracked</i>, out in the shit', and have...

<b>WOW!</b> This book has already answered many personal mysteries of my life, which I've been struggling to comprehend for years! NOW it's all starting to make sense- and I'm only on page 44. THANK YOU, for what may turn out to be the single best book recommendation I've ever received.

Please name one other easily transportable currency which is not at the mercy of politicians, and has roughly kept up with inflation since biblical times.
