Dr. Tom

Happy birthday, d00d.

IBC is clearly better.

Everyone seems to overlook this quote in their zeal to point fingers: Warnings and threats can only be acted upon and planned for if they are concrete.

Yeah, I know. But Dave is still older, so I can still tell that geriatric sumbitch that he's an old man. Anyway, thanks, folks.

Edited for accuracy.

Every other country first.

Does he have a right to say it? Yes. Should Colorado taxpayers be livid that their tax dollars are funding this blithering imbecile poisoning the minds of their sons and daughters? Also, yes. Apparently, Colorado is going to try and fire him for incompetence. The ACLU has finally circled the wagons around Churchill. This should get more interesting.

Ripken, goddamnit.

Which, since both Scotland and Wales are part of the UK, technically makes both gentlemen British.

Only signing bonuses are guaranteed. Random things like a "roster bonus" look nice on paper, but if some chap is about to get $2m just for showing up to camp on a certain date, he often gets cut just before then so the renegotiation can begin.

Cons: You don't get paid much. You get to toil away in third-world shitholes. You get shot at when those third-world shitholes erupt in violence, like they often do. Pros: I got nothin'.

Snort several lines of cocaine off a hooker's ass. Actually, since you'll be coming in May, you should go to Yankee Stadium and take in a ballgame.

I would. Hell, depending on your position, your average career length in the NFL might only be four years and change. Winning championships is nice, and no one wants to be a part of a consistent losing team, but when you only have 5-10 good years to make your money, you have to make what you can. Show me the money.

There's a simple solution to the problem of illegals taking jobs from Americans. (Well, two solutions, I guess, but I'm going for the one that doesn't involve killing them at the border.) Force American companies to pay illegals the same wage they'd pay a qualified American to do that job. That way, a company can't pay some illegal Mexican $3 an hour under the table to do the job an American would get $8 an hour for. I'm also in favor of more border patrols, tougher immigration policies, and finally fucking making English the official language of the country. If you want to live here and don't want to learn it, the hell with you. Get back on the boat, then.

What a bunch of leftist poppycock. Arafat was a subhuman piece of shit terrorist. I'm glad he's dead. The world should be glad he's dead. The only acknowledgement Dr. Rice should have given his grave was as a nice place to drop a deuce.

Good. Stupid bitch. Anyone this petty and moronic needs to be weeded out of the gene pool. Or at least out of the town they call home.

In restaurants, I usually tip 20-25% for good service. For pizza deliveries, which I don't get very often, it's usually around 15%. If the order comes to something like $16.xx, I'll just give the fellow a $20 and be done with it.

I habitually use the two spaces after ending punctuation in everything I write. I'm pretty sure HTML eliminates "extraneous" spaces and just renders one space, which forces you to use the no-break space code to insert additional ones. This board might do it, too; I've actually never bothered to check.

I can only remember it happening twice.

And that was tactless and inappropriate, too.

He just wanted to show off his collection of cheerleader pics...

I've never referred to anyone here as a "commie" in a serious manner.

How classless for the Democrats to moan and groan while the President was talking about Social Security. If they disagree with his projections and plans regarding the program, that's fine. But there's a time and place for that disagreement, and it's certainly NOT during the State of the Union address. Fucking assholes.

Heh. Of all the people who moved up to the rail for a photo op with the President, Brit Hume points it out only when a black woman does it. RAYCIZM~!!!!1!!!11!!!

Does this mean bald Korean men are really good Communists?
