  1. While dining in Knoxville last summer I was approached by a few locals who thought I was Dale Earnhardt Jr. It was a very strange time. When I go back in June I will bring a Sharpie along. Also, yee haw!
  2. My bit about if McCaulliffe were the head of a rival channel isn't really even applicable. Ailes was a top-ranking GOP guy as far back as 1968 with Team Nixon. He was even a focal point of a very good book on that campaign. He was the guy behind the Dan Rather/Bush Sr thing in '88. It's amazing that this is mentioned so infrequently & people show so little concern for a high-ranking operative of a political party for well over 20 years is in charge of a major 'news' channel.
  3. Who the real culprit is!
  4. I joined.
  5. NC State just about pulled that one out.
  6. Boring (to some people, only) is definitly not a valid argument against inclusion in the tournament. Good Big Ten teams can be viewed as the Pernell Whitaker of college basketball.
  7. I prefer this version of Leena to the lame 'sentence fragment for a post' Leena.
  8. Copying isn't so bad. It's that you adopted the question mark bit in such close proximity to its 'popularity' & are currently using the forums. thing in such volume that is kinda weird/pathetic.
  9. Sorry, the switch to a no question mark policy was pretty noticeable.

    Hopefully the referee wont allow Wlad to hold Peter for much of a possible rematch.

    Wladimir absolutely crushed Ray Austin this afternoon.
  12. Hussein Osama is a non-black black separatist, smitty. I agree that good teachers are underpaid. But I also think most teenagers are qualified to listen to music while in study hall or between classes so I must also believe teachers are evil oppressors.
  13. The OSU-Wisco series continues on the morrow.
  14. I can picture Jerk getting all riled up and screaming at his students. On a daily basis. "NO! I'm right! I have a college degree & that makes me the smarter!"
  15. lovecraft, we dont need a gimmick that feeds off C-bacon.
  16. And now Jerk has officially gone below C-bacon as well. What a thread.
  17. Jerk reaching new lows. I'm going to guess 'yes'
  18. Not seeing 'evil' in there anywhere. I actually was reprimanded in high school for reading in class. I would just leave the room. So, yeah, we probably should ban books as well as the dang gadgets.
  19. Who said they're evil oppressors? Why does it have to be a Black Eyed Peas song that you dont like? It couldnt be classical music or Radiohead or something else that a student might feel helps him/her concentrate on a book/assignment etc? Is it possible, Jerk, that some people might learn best in different ways than others? Are you one of those teachers that gets extremely pissed when proven wrong by a student?
  20. Is it that hard to just not allow the ipods to be used while the teacher is talking? It has to be an outright ban covering the entire school day on the entire school property to accomplish this?
  21. People thinking kids are to blame for everything wrong with education vs. people who think that faulty educators and decisions play no small role in the ills of schools. I thought we were talking about iPods. Yeah, this is the first time a thread has moved on to a broader subject.
  22. Why is it that the kids are supposedly only listening to music DURING class while a teacher is talking? Is it not conceivable that they could listen to them (harmlessley) during study halls, lunch time, while reading silently, in the hallways between classes, while running a mile during gym class, etc?
  23. People thinking kids are to blame for everything wrong with education vs. people who think that faulty educators and decisions play no small role in the ills of schools.
  24. Yeah, Albany-Vermont was fun. A little over halfway thru the OSU-Purdue semi and the Boilermakers are tied with the number one. A win would seal their bid in the big tournament, a competitive loss cant hurt.
  25. Get over this 'snuffbox hates conservatives' shit. Barry Goldwater is my motherfucking hero. When you get all grandpa-y and blame everyithing on kids/Mexicans/etc you're not being conservative, you're not advocating small govt, you are just being a troglodyte. Talking like an idiot Andy Griffith cast member doesn't make you conservative. Nor does advocating the expense of multiple billions to get rid of Mexican people or blacks in the ghettos.
