  1. When I was a junior, a hot blonde freshman chick was being chased by the vice principal right through the quad, and suddenly she grabbed a baggie of crank out of her back pocket and tossed it into a bush and kept running. When I was a freshman, a big brawl erupted, and some random guy that had nothing to do with the fight, decided to get involved, and was promptly thrown upside down into a bush.
  2. The only two on the Skins that I adamantly want resigned are: Fred Smoot Antonio Pierce
  3. "two chicks at the same time" "show her my oh face" "mmhmm, yeaaaaaaah, ok" All classic stuff that no one identified for a good long while. Also I like I mentioned, I saw American History X opening night, and at that time either people knew it as the "RACIST KKK MOVIE" or they had never even heard of it at all. So when I asked others about the outrageous "curbing" scene, no one knew what the hell I was talking about for the longest time.
  4. Well then don't vote for Arnold's budget, which surely wants to give kickbacks and more corporate loopholes to these criminal energy companies. EDIT: Normally the people don't vote on the budget, but since the legislature in CA is basically laughing at Arnold's attempt to pass a piece of shit budget, he said he is going to campaign to the "people of california" by showing up in front of grocery stores and shopping centers trying to get signatures to force his budget proposal to be voted on by the people.
  5. I figure you are being sarcastic, but at the same time, just in case you weren't, it should go on record that abstinence-only education is failing miserably, as teenage sex accoriding to studies and polls is on the rise in Texas, the birthplace of this "wonderful" idea....
  6. Actually the "insane left" as you so profoundly put it, does not worship him at all, if when you say "insane left" you mean someone like a Green Party member.
  7. Considering the entire root of the" West Coast energy crisis" had to do with Enron purposely shutting down a powerplant during peak usage times, in order to rest the newly deregulated energy market, doesn't have me very suprised at this bullshit.
  8. Well in a Vice Versa situation, two movies me and my best friend saw on opening night(seperate ocassions of course), in a theater half full, saw Office Space & American History X, and recommened them to everyone we know. I know Office Space didn't get big until DVD, and American History X also became a bigger hit once it was on DVD.
  9. Not a bad idea, IMO. That way it is the government that is handing out the actual rights & benefits etc...that go with a Civil Union, and then leave it up to a church and/or preacher/rabbi/minister/reverend to marry people, which there will surely be some willing.
  10. Not a single Sacramento Kings player?
  11. And now for an out of place picture for no reason..........for your approval:
  12. I prefer Jimboys tacos.
  13. Geez, where have I heard that term before, Mr. Michael "Savage" Weiner?
  14. What is with Orton's new "knocked silly almost unconcious" gimmick? Is this supposed to make the fans rally behind or something? I find it rather annoying myself.
  15. I know Bush is a pretty poor speaker and all, but come on man, that HAS to be chopped up or something. That can't be what he actually said ala a direct quote....could it!?!

    Dynasty?

    What if Brady wants more money and ends up leaving? It is a possibility.
  17. Well originally it was supposed to come out this tuesday, Feb. 8th. So I just check on amazon and now it says May 24th!?! Can anyone confirm or deny that it is pushed back?? Dave Chappelle Season 2 DVD Set
  18. Lombardi #1 I would put Joe Gibbs in the top 5 at least, as he led teams with a different QB and RB to each SB win. They Skins were like the anti-dynasty-dynasty, because they won without the conventional Franchise QB.
  19. Well the article said that the hotel that housed the journalists had them there for well over a year, and there is no way possible that the army did not know of their location. As far as motive, I dunno I am not a lawyer and I am not putting them on trial, but maybe because the Coalition or strategic folks even higher wanted to intimidate the international press core, who are definately interested in covering the War more closely and non-filtered then the american media? I am not even trying to say they purposely KILLED journalists perse, but possibly just fired on the hotel as a means of intimidation or scare tactic, and then there happened to be the few journalists in the wrong place at the wrong time. Nonetheless, the international press's hotel was fired upon.
  20. Anyone see the new installment of "Taxi Cab Confessions" ? The hot latina taxi cab driver chick is enough to make me ignore the usually interesting stories from the passengers. One couple tried to get her to go home with them, LOL.
  21. I have the original release, and am considering buying the special edition and giving away the original release, but no one has said much about the re-release so I have not gone ahead and done it yet.
  22. what "online documentary" and I did post an article awhile ago to go with the documentary. I mean short of calling up Oliver North and having him showcase this issue on Hannity & Colmes this week in a feature, what else can I do to give this issue SOME credence. I am not looking for everyone to say "Damn them they did it" all I am saying is that this isn't merely a "OMG CONSPIRACY THEORYLOLO~!"
  23. http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2003/04/...l?oneclick=true April 9 2003 By Hamza Hendawi Related links: Media deaths spark outrage Press caught in the crossfire Media organisations today questioned the judgment of US soldiers after the killing of three journalists in Baghdad, and even suggested the Americans were deliberately targeting reporters. US-led military strikes in the Iraqi capital yesterday hit a hotel housing hundreds of journalists and an Arab television network, killing three journalists and injuring three others. US military officials denied claims two Arabic-language television networks had been intentionally targeted. "This coalition does not target journalists," Brig Gen Vincent Brooks said in Qatar. A US Defence Department spokeswoman said while she regretted the deaths of journalists, "war is a dangerous, dangerous business" "We've had conversations over the last couple of days, news organisations eager to get their people unilaterally into Baghdad," Victoria Clarke told reporters. "We are saying it is not a safe place; you should not be there." The US-based Committee to Protect Journalists has demanded US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld investigate the firing on the Palestine Hotel and attacks that hit the Baghdad office of the Qatar-based al-Jazeera satellite network and damaged the nearby office of Abu Dhabi TV. Amnesty International also called for an independent investigation, saying the Palestine Hotel was protected under international humanitarian law and should not have been attacked. In Belgium, the International Federation of Journalists said it appeared the attacks may have deliberately targeted journalists. "If so, they are grave and serious violations of international law," said Secretary-General Aidan White. An American tank fired on the Palestine Hotel early yesterday, where foreign journalists have been covering the war from balconies and the roof. Less than 2km away, a reporter for Al-Jazeera television was killed when US-led forces bombed his office. Nearby, coalition artillery battered the Baghdad office of Abu Dhabi television, trapping more than 25 reporters who phoned for help from the basement. "I'm astonished and shocked," said Art Bourbon, news director of Abu Dhabi. "We've been in this office for more than 2-1/2 years. Anyone going into military operations would have known our location." Early today, the network announced that it had been unable to broadcast live video from Baghdad overnight, saying American tanks were posted outside its offices. Its live shots are often used by television networks, including those in the United States. Al-Jazeera, whose offices are alongside Abu Dhabi television, also did not broadcast live scenes of Baghdad overnight. Yesterday, Al-Jazeera chief editor Ibrahim Hilal said the US military has long known the map coordinates and street number of his network's office. Witnesses "saw the plane fly over twice before dropping the bombs. Our office is in a residential area, and even the Pentagon knows its location," Hilal said in Qatar. Military officials offered different explanations for the attacks. Brooks initially said the hotel was targeted after soldiers were fired on from the lobby. Later, he told reporters, "I may have misspoken." US Army Col David Perkins, commander of the 3rd Infantry Division's 2nd Brigade, which deployed the tank, said Iraqis in front of the hotel fired rocket-propelled grenades across the Tigris River. Soldiers fired back with a tank round aimed at the Palestine Hotel after seeing enemy "binoculars", Perkins said. More than 50 news cameras were set up on hotel balconies when the tank fired, according to Associated Press photographer Jerome Delay. "How can they spot someone with binoculars and not (see) cameras?" he asked. Journalists said they heard no gunfire coming from the hotel or its immediate environs. They had been watching two US tanks shooting across the al-Jumhuriya bridge, more than a kilometre away, when one of the tanks rotated its turret toward the hotel and fired. The round pierced the 14th and 15th floors of the 17-storey hotel, spraying glass and shrapnel across a corner suite serving as Reuters' Baghdad bureau. Killed were Taras Protsyuk of Ukraine, a television cameraman for the Reuters news agency, and Jose Couso, a cameraman for Spain's Telecinco television. Spain asked its journalists to leave Baghdad following Couso's death. Tareq Ayyoub of Jordan died at al-Jazeera's office, located in a residential neighbourhood fronting the Tigris. In all, 10 journalists have been killed since war began on March 20. The wounded, all Reuters employees, were identified by the company as TV technician Paul Pasquale of Britain, Gulf Bureau Chief Samia Nakhoul of Lebanon and photographer Faleh Kheiber of Iraq. Pasquale underwent surgery yesterday at a Baghdad hospital for serious leg injuries, according to colleagues. Nakhoul suffered shrapnel wounds and may require surgery. "Clearly the war, and all its confusion, has come to the heart of Baghdad," said Reuters Editor in Chief Geert Linnebank. "But the incident nonetheless raises questions about the judgment of the advancing US troops who have known all along that this hotel is the main base for almost all foreign journalists in Baghdad." -AP/Reuters
  24. That mock-ECW PPV card is most likely better then anything planned for WM 21. The only thing I would change is 2 Cold Scorpio jobbing so quickly to Mikey.
  25. Sure no one should be forced to accept something. Hell, people to this day in some parts of this country don't accept Interracial relationships/marriage, but that doesn't mean it should be illegal. If people don't want to accept or tolerate gay marriage, then they don't have to. They can make sure they don't marry the same sex, and in the process will never have to worry about it affecting them.
