Re: Re: Ummm ... Cairo ....
 

Thank you syc, I stand corrected. (Sit actually. Typing while standing up is a drag.)

My bad.

I guess you've had a lot of practice ...

Wolf -
You are so right! Bad example on my part, but the NOW-nazis and choicers keep insisting over and over and over that it is a Constitutional Right according to the 4th Amendment so often that even I was getting brainwashed, my bad!

I forgot that it was a Judicial fiat that excluded the people...much like they are doing now by making law from the bench to prohibit free exercise of religions.

Thank you for snapping me out of that falsehood...
however, Radar is a lost cause.

warch, hermit22, jaguar, and perth -

Guys, guys, guys... I meant the cum swallower definition. But ya know, if you guys would put half the focus, determination, and energy into understanding the meaning of my message that you do in deciphering what I think of Radar...
you might just learn something important to your future freedom.

Jaguar -
The only things that DO shock you are truth, reality, and common sense! LOL...

Perth -
I used the term "Dumbazz", not my husband.
It has a meaning and was purposeful.
The 'zz' spelling indicates a bore, as in putting me to sleep. A BORING Dumbass!!!

Ah common sense, I was waiting for you to use that one, every idiots way of justifying their silly views, it's common sense! How could i not see that *sighs*.

You are a really scary person.

Or that we could wipe out entire species, create deserts, destroy entire ecosystems or make entire tracts of land uninhabitable for thousands of years.

I'm sure to learn much about my future freedom by talking to a psychotic aircon installer who carries a bullet incase she needs to kill herself and wants to wipe out an entire population, probably to serve her own religious beliefs that she somehow denies having. Enough of your ham-fisted rubbish, join radar on the ignore list.

So you're a 40 year-old mother? Interesting... Do your kids sound like drunken sailors with tourrete's also?
Profanity is the crutch of inarticulate motherfuckers.

Great, now I have mate' in my sinus cavity.

ah. i wasnt so much concerned about who was using it, more that it was being used in the first place.

Hmm. Ya think?
Then for my benefit, could you just review that Palestinian solution one more time Ava?

I missed that gem somehow. It's not very often you her quasi-christian middle aged mothers talking about cum swallowing i must agree. I'm glad theres a big pond between her trailer and myself.

Jaguar -
My husband IS a very scary person...to Socialists and DemocRATS!!! He's a true American Patriot who leans to the right of the Religious right, and proud to let you know that "Red, White, and Blue don't RUN!"

You barfed out,"psychotic aircon installer who carries a bullet in case she needs to kill herself and wants to wipe out an entire population, probably to serve her own religious beliefs that she somehow denies having."
First of all, your interpretation and comprehension skills are ATROCIOUS!!!! Not to mention made-up...
Chalk it up to Socialist Schooling! Good for a fiction or sci-fi novel though!

If you can't tell the differences between my husband's posts and mine...that says it all! I've no further use for you! NEXT!

Blowmee -
I'm 39...for 6 more months, I am 39!
A little friendly life advice...if you want to get the attention and on-going response from a woman, it's best NOT to add onto her age! In fact, subtracting from often gains you major kudos!
Otherwise, it's an insult and you will be ignored and alone for the rest of your life. K?

how hard would it be for him to have his own login? i think we should have a contest. come up with a nickname for cairos husband.

~james

Huh? I thought she and radar...

i thought about that too. but i dont think so. but they would make a cute couple, no?

Psychotic?

As if. It is the only truly long term solution to the entire problem.
The region of syria transjordan was at differing times under the control of syria or jordan. Most recently, the owners of the region in question was the hashemite family of jordan. In effect, the entire region around jerusalem was jordanian territory.


My military and historical reference is THE ARAB-ISRAELI WARS, by CHAIM HERZOG, a good read with a highly useful bibliography.
It was during the 1948 birth of the nation of Israel that a multinational coalition of arab nations, using ex-SS and Nazi soldiers no less, attacked Israel with the intent of "driving them into the sea."
The arab leaders at the time told the palestinian natives to leave their homes so that the arab forces could better engage the jews without endangering fellow arabs. It was promised that once the jews were annihilated, they could return and take part in the pillaging and plundering of the conquered jewish areas.

A few more sensible arabs as well as the Israeli govt asked all inhabitants to just stay in their homes and not get involved. The Israeli govt wasn't going to take anything away from anyone.

The ultimate result?

The arab victories never materialized. Numerous arab confederacies sprung up: 1956, 1967, 1969, 1973- and all were overwhelmingly defeated.
Indeed the victories were the sort of lopsided victories straight out of the bible; the Israelites outnumbered by as many as 8:1, out gunned, out equipped....and yet their enemies were thrown into confusion and utterly crushed by Israel.
If the UN had stayed out of the 1956 conflict there is a high probability that none of this would be happening today.
In much the same way we don't have anymore militaristic japanese emperors giving us anymore trouble.
There wouldn't be any fanatic wahabi clerics causing trouble either, if Israel had been allowed to finish what other people started.

The arab nations are that punk kid whose older cousUN is always keeping them from having their ass cash a check that their mouth wrote.
The UN never interfered any of the times the arabs tried to invade and destroy Israel. No, they only decided to do something when it was plainly clear that the arab capitols were about to be captured.
And the UN can't have Israel dictating the terms of surrender for egypt, syria, lebanon, jordan, iraq, and anyone else stupid enough to bring a fight to Israel.

Syria or Jordan could have absorbed the refugees that they created from Israel.
If the refugees had just stayed home and minded their own business, they would have become Israeli citizens, with all the rights afforded Israeli citizens but none of the military obligations.
Instead they gambled their childrens future in hopes of the unjust gain from looting the jewish areas that they had coveted.
They got what they deserved....0

Now their fellow arabs hope that if they keep the palestinians in a screwed up enough situation long enough. Then hopefully they can obtain though international diplomacy what they couldn't obtain militarily; a foothold far enough into Israel to effect a military victory i.e. drive them into the sea.

My solution punishes the wicked parents at present who think nothing of throwing their children into the fires of Molech; it punishes their enablers as well.
I can be a bit flexible on the cut-off group for the age. You can never underestimate the ability of crass candy coated commercialism to influence kids.
What's to miss? Hunger, fear, murderous parents that are just waiting for you to be old enough to go join your "martyred" brothers and sisters in the field.
I'm sure there would be no shortages of volunteers for pokemon and icecream.

Their bloodline would merge and be absorbed into the nations of the western alliance. The blood sin of genocide would be avoided, all would be copasetic.

I hate no man.
I can only hate that which I have loved.
Which means that I hate an ex or two and that's about it.


My wife isn't an HVAC tech, can't say I have ever even seen one(a chick tech) in this field.

The corollary being that Democrats and Socialists aren't true American Patriots. Nice to see that the government I want to devote my life to is something I'm not truly patriotic about.

"Making an Ass of Yourself for Dummies" by two proven experts
 

Slang, thank you for saving me a lot of time reading the blithering hyperbole of these two unseemly idiots. As with advertising, the general rule appears to be that the louder and more frequently one yells, the less one really has to say. The corollary here being that the length of the post is inversely proportional to the value of reading it (so I'll be brief).

Sadly, if either of these windbags actually has anything useful to say, it gets lost in the vitriolic effluvium they spew so carelessly and ceaselessly. It would be so much more amusing if one of them would begin a tiresome rant with "Jane, you ignorant slut!"

When it comes to "Making an Ass of Yourself," these two wrote the book.

PS. The only post (by the ninny twins) worth reading was when Radar had the audacity to call HB a 'cock smoker' -- I'm so sorry I wasn't around to hear the guffaws that engendered!

Hey, that's two uses of the (quite lovely) word 'corollary' in consecutive posts! What a gifted group. I wonder what our average SAT scores were?

hey! well, at least you gave me the last word. :)

~james

Hmm. I admit that I hated chemistry in high school/ college, and so don't remember much of it, but I'm fairly certain that we studied some topics that were discovered in only the past 20 years or so. I, for one, would hate to see my kids denied a proper education because a few people couldn't accept the current consensus of the scientific community.
At least you're honest. :)
I imagine that makes life rather difficult though.

It is the height of human stupidity to assume we have nothing to do with it. It's idiotic to assume the atmosphere is not effected by the chemicals we puke into it everyday.

Apparently you have no idea what a wahabi fundamentalist is; teaching history to air conditioners as you do.

My memory of Wahabbism is a little bit sketchy, but I'll give you a history lesson on what I do remember.

Wahabis, or salafis, were mostly a tribe in what is now Saudi Arabia that survived (in a large part) by attacking caravans in the desert. When the Saudi family was rising to power, they used the Wahabis as their warriors, and rewarded them with advisor positions in the government. Hence, the influence.

I have a feeling you think Palestinians are wahabbis by default. In fact, Hizbollah is Shi'ite (wahabbis are Sunni), and, ostensibly, the PLO, and later, the PA is a secular organization designed to liberate Palestine.

But you may not; I'm not going to assume anything.

I will take issue with your absolute hatred of Palestinians. The pragmatism you claim is really nothing but the manifestation of this set of emotions - spite, hatred, etc. Of course, suicide bombing is a distasteful act, but the fact that some Palestinians strap bombs on their bodies doesn't mean that the entire nation wants to - or wants to convince their children to do.

It's disgusting to see that you want to commit genocide on an entire culture; an entire set of people who, as far as I know, have not directly done you harm. There's no practicality in that, just extermination; the lowest valley of human existence. This view shows you to really be nothing more than a waste of human life. I really have no patience for this kind of talk, no matter if its coming from Pol Pot, Hussein, or some guy from Mississippi.

Ok, now allow me to seemingly reverse my position from my previous post.

I think everyone here has something interesting to say more than occasionally. I think its funny though how some people argue. If I pitch a case for something that I have said and the evidence or sources are rejected, the argument is over. That doesnt mean that anyone's opinion has changed but that the arguing about it is over. I'd rather have a good time goofing around than trying to prove a point to someone that will have absolutely no impact on me in the future.

Some people approach this in the opposite way that I do and will defend an idea till the end. They'll go back and forth and back and forth when it's fairly obvious that no progress is being made. That's fine, but I am not going to get in the middle of all that. Believe what you want, I'm not looking to convert the world to slang.

I do cringe when I see people post insulting comments though. Probably as much as many people cringe when they see some of the stupid crap I post.

Anyway, my solution to the hostility is humor. If I happen to make sport of someone I understand that they may be bitter and fire something back. That's understood. Just try to make the retort funny and even I will laugh, sometimes people get too uptight.

But then I'd be letting Cairo get the last word! :)

I didn't take the SAT b/c it generally wasn't required at many midwestern schools (at least in 1993 and 1994). I did get a 30 out of 36 on the ACT though. Does that count? :)

Is ACT a government program for midwestern poets?

I don't want to get drawn into a discussion on I/P, if you really want to talk about it, I can e-mail you a paper I wrote about it that, I think, sums it up pretty well for how short it is. I really don't see a need to bore most of the Cellar with a discussion trying to show you what my beliefs are. I think it is the bull-headedness of many of the arguments in the conflict that have left it unresolved.

However, I will object to one point - the Israelis haven't exactly been outgunned for a long time. They have the second most modern military in the world, and the first one sure isn't a Muslim nation.

I didn't know where I was going to go, so I took both. (Most people around here only took the SAT's.) I got a 27 on the ACT and a 1310 on the SAT. Not to toot my own horn or anything.

I wish...

The American College Test is similar to the SAT; the main differences being that you are not penalized for wrong answers on the ACT, and the scoring system is a bit different (1600 is tops on the SAT, 36 on the ACT). Almost every midwestern college used to accept it for admission, though I don't know how it is now. The average score used to be around 20, and you could start winning scholarships with a 25 for the most part.

I got a 30, which got me $2000 a year in scholarship money from the state of Missouri...whoohoo! And I'm sure the state would be proud of what I've done since getting that money and graduating. :rolleyes:

Nice work hermit!

I took the PSAT...if translated to a SAT score, the range would have been 920-1000. Ugh.

Thread Hijacking for the Betterment of Mankind
 

Heh! Good one!*

This would be much more interesting to discuss than what we've been enduring on this thread lately.

I did OK on the SATs and took an obscure exam called the ASAT (now obsolete, I believe). Can anyone guess what that was for?

*But if you really wanted to know; it's simply an alternative to the SAT, used by some midwestern and western states -- although more colleges/states allow both tests these days, I believe. Similar content and difficulty; different scoring range.

Cairo, it's incredibly uncool to have two people posting to the same account. How are we supposed to get to know you if we don't know who's who?

Lets post some suggestions for a login for him.(be polite)

How about "ozone man"? :D

For once, the Arkansan makes a good point. If your hubby wants to post, have him create his own account. We have plenty of couples here already, so it's not unprecedented.

I say! I do believe I've made good points on numerous occasions.

Ah ah ah! No trying to sound British now. Let's try that again...

Juju responds to syc by saying, "Well golly gee syc! I think I made me some good points 'round here a good two three four times now."

Better.

Hey, you ever see Willy running around down there. Maybe chasing some college girls?

He gave a speech at my college during a statue dedication a couple of months ago, right before the mid-term elections. I think he was also supposed to be at a few other events, but the democratic candidate decided he didn't want anything to do with him.

There were so many people at the dedication that you couldn't even see him, though. It was very poorly placed between two buildings. Not a lot of room for a crowd.

I don't talk like that! Actually, I'm told I don't have much of an accent at all. Shall I record myself speaking to prove it? :)

My PSATs blew, but by SAT time I had gotten brighter and scored 1330.

Why thankyou
*shovels in abuse*
No particular reason.
You have a point though. There *have* been some good discussion round here, (note discussions) and plenty of bad ones. I’ve had my fair share of the bad ones, and the good ones. There is a reason I’m still here after all. Recently though we've had a few new members who I think I can safely say the vast majority agree have posted little or nothing of value and have contributed to a fark.com like level of political discourse round here, which is a bit of a pity. On the upside two of them seem to share the same account which saves space on my ignore list, but on the downside we have reason to believe they may have procreated, another drop of pissing the gene pool, even if it is at the shallow end.

What the hell is it with the score ending in 30? Almost everyone I know had a score that ended in 30. 1230. 1330. Except Alan, this guy I knew from Science Research. He got a 1600 (and was later not accepted to Harvard).

Are you suggesting that there are no marathon runners who are patriots? I find such a notion to be completely absurd. I've known a great number of marathon runners (not counting my sprinter friends) who have spilled their blood for our country. Discounting the contribution of runners and dismissing them is extremely upsetting to me. I think the UROA (United Runners of America) deserve an apology.

What's six months compared to 39 years? It's like convincing Strom he has another year to go before he gets another free meal at Denny's.
L?

Musta been white without a relative who had graduated from there ...

Some women are just totally weirded out by the idea of their age ending in a zero. I've never understood this. I've cruised through 40, and am looking at 41 in (counts on fingers) 6 days ... no biggie.

My mother is SO obsessed by the thought of people finding out HER age that she lies about my and my sister's ages to keep people from guessing.

Yeah, I don't think so. We were from good ol' Carroll County. I doubt he was first in his family to go to college, but probably only second generation...

I see my thread has been successfully hi-JACKED!
Nice...should I change the title? What a wonderful welcome you all show, it's quite overwelming!

Hermi22 -
Of course "some topics" were discovered since the 70's. He never said otherwise, more of your comprehension handicap I suppose. He said the principles of the laws of physics or thermodynamics are no different than in the 70's. Try disputing what is said next time instead of making up things.

No, recent studies are leading in the direction of the fact that we have no influence on the ozone hole what-so-ever! What's "idiotic" is to ignore these studies for selfish agenda-driven reasons. What does the discovery of mammal bones from melting polar ice caps in Canada after thousands of years frozen solid tell you?
The chemicals we "puke" into the atmosphere doesn't affect the Earth, but they do affect us. However, restrictions are not the solution. California claims to be "The leading example to all other States on how to cut down pollution". But for all their expensive restrictions, in the last 3 years California has managed to champion into #1 most polluted city in the U.S....and #2 city,and #3 city, pushing Houston into 4th place from 1st.
California got more polluted under strict restrictions and Houston cut down pollution without restrictions.

Some Cities choose progress, and some Cities remain simple...where you live is up to you! But just remember as you are using and buying electricity, car, lawnmower, computer, hair products, soap, baby oil, make up, deodorant, cologne, clothes, lotions, c.d.'s, T.v.'s, cell phone, food, drink, etc...etc...your choice is progress!

You are the one who severely needs a History lesson(and Comprehension 101) Wahabism is the puritanical Muslim sect, Arab religious reformers and enforcers, if you will. Founded in Saudi and spread throughout the Middle East as the Puritan Islam. Are you saying that "Palestinians" are NOT Arab, Muslim, or Islamic?
I take issue and am appalled with you for even attempting to give a pass(the road to Hell is paved with good intensions) to a bunch of TERRORISTS who danced in the streets in masses upon hearing that their brethren succeeded in the massacre of 3,000 human lives on American soil! Shame on you for forgetting!!!! Plus the fact that in return for your forgiveness, they would sooner rip out your heart than look at you, or defend you! They sacrifice their children into crossfire for money! you have no clue what jihad is at all!

Ju ju -
You are right, it won't happen again.

Jaguar -
1. This is my thread, so piss off if you don't like this discussion!
2. "little to nothing of value"...? Debunking your uneducated little nothing posts are very valuable to readers out there who seek to broaden their knowledge. You are what the Bible describes as a Fool..."The lips of the righteous feed many; but fools die for want of wisdom." Look it up sometime.
3. Yeah, your ignor-ant list is getting longer...
running from the truth takes alot out of a guy.

Dave -
Hehehe...Run, as in away like a coward...if the UROA are all cowards who don't put America's best interest first, then yes, I am refering to them.

Blowmee -
This is your 2nd strike...one more...out!
Try comparing 39 to 40 instead. See the first number?...Bingo!

Seeing as a few of you tend to go "Hitler" on me, meaning trying to get rid of opposition, and are content to just wallow in their Utopian pipe dreams... I believe I've said all I need to say, so I'm done with this thread...hi-jack away!

You're basically <font size=+2>40</font>, so just deal with it. It's less than 6 months away, so grow up, act like a big girl, and accept it as the meaningless number that it is.
Were you as sensitive when you hit 10? How about 20?

Blowmee, that wasn't bad, but I would have went with...40!!!

. . . And Such Small Portions!
 

Thank GODDESS.

BTW, when I turned 38 I started calling myself 40, just because the college kids I work around don't deal with numbers that aren't multiples of five. I could have been 60 for all they cared. By the time I turned 40, I barely noticed.

Happy birthday (in a few days), Wolf.

Re: . . . And Such Small Portions!
 

Far from it. Maybe I could have believed "some ranting web-aholic that knows only as much as Google will feed a person about any particular mundane topic five minutes before they cut-n-paste to a message board." But "goddess?" I don't think so.

Seems a lot of you put too much emphasis and stock into the results of one test...the Colleges don't.
The Colleges admit based on a student's entire academic past, they figure if you are an average student in High School who aces the SAT, you either tutored well for the test or you cheated. Either way, not exceptional ability. My niece graduated in the top 5% of her class, was a student council member for 3 years in her Charter/Magnet School, and was one of the few asked to give a speech at their Graduation Ceremonies. She didn't need to apply to Universities because they came to her, two Universities up north(Michigan and New York) courted her to visit their campuses by paying for her flight and hotel over a weekend. Kind of like athlete star treatment, only in academics...because those Universities know my niece would help make them look good on paper. Her best offer was from Rice University, so my niece is winding up her Freshman year at Rice...and the best part? She's still in Texas!
Yes, it is in the gene pool, my son at 7 years of age, plays the piano, plays chess,speaks english and spanish, takes tae kwon do, is almost 4th grade level in reading and math, and holds straight A's this semester. And my daughter at 2 years of age counts to 10 in english and spanish, knows all her colors, and has a vocabulary that rivals a 5 year old.
So jaguar likes to fantasize that my gene pool keeps company with his inferior lineage in the shallow end, but the reality is I procreate offspring who don't have to beg for admittance into College....and we wouldn't be caught dead swimming with FOOLS like you!

Yea, but can the 7 year old shoot?

$20 says the internet is like liquid courage for Cairo.

ok...how do you prove a winner of the bet?

Well, the only real way would be to actually know Cairo in person...

Who would want to know a worthless, stupid, right-wing, religious zealot, that knows nothing about the Constitution or America, has no personality to speak of, and thus far has shown no redeeming qualities as a human being like Cairo?

I certainly wouldn't. But if I did, I'd go to the special olympics.

Oh come on Radar. We know you have a crush on her. Face reality, shes taken so just move on :)

You can be the most intelligent kid in the class, but if you don't have a decent personality, nobody listens...and nobody cares.
