I could see banning it if she leaned her head back with her mouth open and a guy threw noodles in her mouth, but this?

Sorry that my "little green men" comment stepped on your tender feelings. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on where fossil fuels come from.

Zing........

Actually I believe my own eyes Sparty. I grew up in coal country, both of my grandfathers were coal miners, and I still have a collection of coal specimens with fossils of bugs and plants in them. Sorry, no fossils of little green men that I've come across so far. No argument that much of our world formed and evolved because of comets and whatever else was hitting the surface, but there are also natural processes at work that are home grown and not influenced by impacts from space. Exactly how would claiming coal, oil and natural gas are fossil fuels rather than extra-terrestrial be in somebody's financial interest?

Oh God don't get me started Beer.

Yeah SOB, I completely blew that joke. That's what I get for typing it on my way out the door and not checking what I typed.

I never cared for Copperfield's writing too much. He's a much better magician than an author.

You must have been dressed provocatively.

Nvidia and mythbusters must be in on it too. Those bastards!

No, you're busy working on your 11,000 posts bragging rights.

Coal, oil and natural gas deposits formed before dinosaurs were around, but they are still fossils of plants, marine life and algae. Roughly 300 million years ago what wasn't covered in oceans was pretty much swamps, and our fossil fuels come from them. At least that's what the scientists at the US department of energy thinks. http://www.fe.doe.gov/education/energylessons/coal/gen_howformed.html

Congratulations and welcome to the zoo.

Hmmm, not sure if I buy all of that Harry. Ben Franklin and the kite experiment is true. It happened in June of 1752, and was written about in an authorized biography of Franklin that he reviewed before it was published. The last one about the Pilgrims is kind of bullshit as well. Their exploits with the local natives were well documented by the Pilgrims, who not only accepted help from the natives but fought with them against other tribes on occasion. It is true that many of the natives were wiped out by disease years earlier, but I don't know if that's why they chose that specific place. I'm a decendant of 2 passengers on the Mayflower and have studied their history quite a bit.

If these workers actually got $15 per hour, after finding out they were in a higher tax bracket, and after the union got their dues each month from those now highly paid workers, they would wind up with $8.00 and hour.

Nobody has seriously tried to break from the union since the civil war, but our Declaration of Independence appears to give us the right to kick the dumbasses out of Washington and put new dumbasses in power. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,—That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Fuck, why bother with a class picture? It's like taking a group shot at a KKK BBQ.

Let's not forget to look at your post count/like ratio Pete. Judging by your ratio people only like what you have to say less than 1/3 of the time.

Sorry for your loss Zaubermaus.

Anybody who does that without a 5 point restraint is fucking crazy. Looks like he was only wearing a lap belt.

I'm glad you feel that you've reached the holy land. The rest of us have been through Hell watching you get there. Just out of curiosity, how many of those 10,000 were not in the political forum? There must be at least 30 or so.

California is trying to break apart from itself. There have been numerous tries over the years for a northern and southern California, and lately some guy is trying to break it up into 5 different states. Our biggest problem here is that the major population centers have always been heavily controlled by the democrats, but the rest of the state is fairly conservative. Some of the highest taxes in the country and more people per capita on welfare and food stamps here than anyplace else. Lousy roads and the highest gas taxes in the US and yet they keep voting these idiots into office. Northern CA has lots of water but it all gets shipped to southern CA in canals. It's a pretty fucked up place sometimes.

Good man for releasing the fish. While I have always enjoyed catching them trout was never one of my favorites to eat so I always released what I caught. The garage sale ended up going well. Six of our neighbors had sales at the same time so we attracted some big crowds. We sold about $400 worth of shit that had been taking up room in our house for years. @@eidolonFIRE, suck my balls.

That is some great eatin right there. Good man, you froze the fillets in water. The only way to freeze fish.

The doctor is ready to give you your prostate exam now.
