since they are trying to make Iraq a democracy. Why don't they start with letting the Iraq people vote on this issue for themselves?

To claim the movie is completely ficticious is absurd. Yes I have read all the so-called "truth" websites that go point by point, but you'd have o be a pretty biased person to just read that and just ASSUME that these "fact finders" are 100% accurate and correct. Who knows their motivation, and unless you are doing the research yourself, who is to say Michael Moore is "making things up" rather then some guy with a website. I am not trying to say that there aren't ANY inaccuracies in BFC, but those "point by point" websites, are a hell of a lot more ficticious and ridiculous then the movie seems to be.

well, not in every case of course. I was indeed making a generalization. Sorry. But honestly, it aint that hard to pick out the people who are full of shit, or just trying to look good for some alterior motive.
-
Well you have to also look at the fact that overall teams are not as good as they used to be, which contributes to the decline of every position. with the way Free Agency is, an elite QB could be learning a new offensive system every 5 years or so, opposed to a QB from the 70's who played in the same system for 12 year. If you look at the GREATS though, they are probably just as good as the guys from yesteryear.

I wish people who didn't believe their own religion, would just do away with it, instead of using the "the questions I have only make my faith stronger" nonsense.

Alright Kings.........3-1 and coming back to Sac.

Deleting partitions is some serious stuff, well sort of. I mean if you know what you are doing, then it is ok, but just make sure you carefully watch what you are doing.

I hope they add full headset capabilities for part 2. Talking to the person(s) on the other end just adds a whole new experience, and I wouldn't be worried about vets telling people to solve the puzzles, I mean hell, if they have the net they can go online and look up numerous walkthroughs/cheats anyway.

If Tyson tried to come out roaring against Vitali, he would just get a jab in his face. Tyson's only prayer would be to get inside and have Vitali not back away after getting hit. Tyson is shot. He is not a boxer anymore. Sure he may have some knockout power, but his technique is all but gone. Once you eliminate the intimidation he gives you, he is toast. As far as Lewis goes, yeah he beat a bunch of former greats when they were all in their upper 30's, yet he expects us to get sympathy when the next guy in line wants to fight him when he is getting up there in age? LOL. Lewis's chin is one of the weakest ever for a champion. He was knocked out on one mid level punch by Rahman, and an over the hill Oliver McCall. Lewis was making fun of Wlad on HBO, yet Lewis must count himself in with fighters that have weak chins.

I haven't seen this movie, but one glaring difference between this and Big would be: In Big, the kid just woke up in Tom Hank's body, but he still had his 13 year old life, ALA, he had to run away from home, find some job and thus was scared shitless. In 13 going on 30, I believe she wakes up an adult already situated in her adult life, job/friends etc.......so it is not EXACTLY THE SAME....I guess!?! Hahaha, why do I even care?

after two subpar epidoes, the season looks like it is back on track.

Anyone find that pretty recent/new pic of her in the see-thru top which features pretty visible nipples? It is starting to float around on the net. I had a link but it stopped working Someone find it~!

I still don't understand the "Vitali was getting rocked" point of view. To me, it looked like everytime Sanders landed a shot, Vitali just backed up and held, just like a fighter is trained to do to avoid being hit MORE. I'd say Vitali's sense of balance is more of a question then his chin. Lets not forget Lennox Lewis connect with Vitali's face a LOT more then Sanders did, and Vitali still kept coming forward. Vitali just fought a cautious fight until he was sure Sanders was too tired to do anything. And that first ring fall down was a throwdown.
-
Vitali was ranked one, and Sanders third. Who else were they going to rank anyway? The problem with that is that Tyson outweighted Holyfield in their first fight. Holyfield started out as as cruiserweight. He's hardly a big guy. As for bigger fighters, Tyson beat Bonecrusher Smith (233 lbs.), Tyrell Biggs (228), Tony Tubbs (238), Larry Holmes (225), Frank Bruno (247), Razor Ruddock (238 in second fight), Frans Botha (233), Lou Savarese (241), and Brien Nielsen (259). The theory that Tyson couldn't beat bigger men is nonsense. I don't think ANYONE at Tyson's height could beat Lennox Lewis. Buster Douglas was a special case, and Evander Holyfield certainly didn't tower over him. Most of those fights also took place before Tyson's "nation of islam" days. Sure Tyson could probably work his way back up to a #3 ranking right now, and get a title fight, but he is long gone from being entertaining. I pity the fool that would pay to see him on PPV. He hasn't shown anything IN THE RING to say he is worthy.

Something I've noticed with the A's batters this season is they are watching too damn many first pitch strikes. Now I know you want your hitters to be patient, but watching a first pitch strike go right down the pipe in the name of "patience" is just ridiculous. If you get a pitch to hit, knock the snot out of that sucker.

Muslim call to prayer to be broadcast in Mich town
NoCalMike replied to kkktookmybabyaway's topic in Current Events
I'll just put it like this, I was for the removal for the 10 commandments(even though personally, I wouldn't put any real energy into it cause quite frankly I almost didn't even care). And I am also against this public message announcement remind folks when to pray to Mecca. -
Michael Moore often trips over his own two feet when he tries to identify himself with the common man, and tries to crusade for "you and me" but that doesn't mean he also doesn't bring up relevant topics, and provoke dicussion. I still think Bowling for Columbine was misunderstood as many took as a "I hate guns" movie, which completely missed the point of it, but then again some criticisms of the movie were accurate too. I tend to like his earlier work like "The Big One"

LOL, yeah. I guess that is what happens when people who don't frequent the CE folder, decide to chime in for a thread or two at some random time. Hilarious. -

Well for one, I shouldn't have to hear it in a public place over loudspeakers. I am not a racist, I don't hate muslims or arab people. Religion however as a whole, well I would pretty much like to see it eradicated. That includes Christianity. I am not biased or unfair to SOME religions, I am not really a fan of any of them. -
Honestly, as long as it is adults watching/listening, I can care less how violent, lewd, disgusting, etc...music/music videos are. The problem I have is when I am out in the public and see kids imitating this or adopting it as the way they are going to act all the time. I admit I act lewd/cuss a lot with my friends, but there is a time and place for it, and I know how to turn the switch off and on. It just seems like the youth today is not being taught the fundamentals of behavior at a young age anymore. Or am I just getting old!?!
