  - That's what it looks like, but both kinds of fruit are on the same plant. Some kind of cross-pollination ? -- nm - MojaveMeg Jul 13, 10:27 3
    - That should only affect the seeds, though. -- nm - Reagen Jul 13, 10:31

VP Talk: All this news about Condi Rice seems like a smokescreen. - Strongbad Jul 13, 10:06 33
- Honestly, it would be a great move for Romney...Which is why he won't do it -- nm - amoxy Jul 13, 10:09 30
  - I have no reason to think it's a great idea...she was SecState during a awful war; she's got no elected political experience - Will Hunting Jul 13, 10:11 1
    - but she's black, so there's that.... -- nm - znufrii Jul 13, 10:12
  - Why is it a great move? -- nm - Strongbad Jul 13, 10:10 27
    - It would be a bold move, nominating a smart moderate Republican Black Woman. I think it would work with the independents - amoxy Jul 13, 10:12 26
      - Hasn't the GOP been spending the last 4 years pedaling furiously away from pretty much even a mention of the Bush era, though? -- nm - znufrii Jul 13, 10:13 25
        
        Those 4-6% unemployment rates were brutal, man! -- nm - Strongbad Jul 13, 10:16 23
        
        To say nothing of the $3 trillion spent on a misguided military conflict. - David Jul 13, 10:27 13
        
        If only we had a crystal ball to see the alternate reality. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 13, 10:30 12
        
        2-3 Trillion dollars leaves a lot of alternate reality. - Will Hunting Jul 13, 10:36 2
        
        Yes, it does. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 13, 10:39 1
        
        But given the GOP is allergic to big spending (TARP was a catalcysmic fight)....they weren't going to spend 3T in. - Will Hunting Jul 13, 10:41
        
        In crystal ball alternate reality, we raised taxes to pay for the wars. -- nm - Max Jul 13, 10:33 1
        
        In a crystal ball alternate reality, you gave yourself a good haircut, mohawk. -- nm - Inigo Jul 13, 10:35
        
        Like...I did. Seriously, tell me the part about Bush again while discussing the $3 trillion spent on a misguided war. - David Jul 13, 10:32 2
        
        I agree with your header - but can we not make the comparison in your IM? -- nm - Roger More Jul 13, 10:35
        
        quibble... - Mel Profit Jul 13, 10:33
        
        You don't need a crystal ball. No Iraq, no 3 trillion down the drain. No strain on our military. Etc, etc, etc. -- nm - TWuG Jul 13, 10:32 3
        
        Easy peasy, right? Nothing else changes? - Strongbad Jul 13, 10:34 2
        
        So what changes do you see? (Gus Avrokato's Zen master story is true, but also a cop-out answer) -- nm - Roger More Jul 13, 10:41 1
        
        No clue. Nobody has any idea what the Middle East would be like right now if we hadn't invaded Iraq. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 13, 12:33
        
        "don't worry about the supplemental military budgets..." -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 13, 10:21
        
        It's funny how those rates went up at the end of his term as all his policies started to bear fruit. - TWuG Jul 13, 10:20 7
        
        It's funny how he always gets blamed for the current economy, but never gets credit for how it actually was when he was in Office. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 13, 10:22 6
        
        It was a typical decent economy built on the back of an unsustainable bubble - Will Hunting Jul 13, 10:33
        
        Because the economy lags policy. He instituted fucked policies and as those fucked policies started to take effect the economy tanked. - TWuG Jul 13, 10:29 2
        
        He started with a great economy? Really? - Strongbad Jul 13, 10:32 1
        
        Scary? *laughing* It was a rough economy...it wasn't "scary". -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 13, 10:38
        
        If you assign both to him, would you call that a net gain or a net loss? -- nm - Max Jul 13, 10:24
        
        because the end of it showed exactly how illusory and unsustainable it was. -- nm - znufrii Jul 13, 10:23
        
        "Searching Historical Records... searching... searching... No Results found for 2001-2008" -- nm - Reagen Jul 13, 10:14

  - some of the teabaggers would lose.their.shit. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 13, 10:17
I'm amazed at how many people hold or plug their nose when going under water. that's ridiculous -- nm - CQ Jul 13, 10:02 19
- I did when I was a kid until I was taught to exhale through my nose &/or not inhale there ... I never used nose plugs like some though. -- nm - JenBro Jul 13, 10:35
- I always find it odd when people do it. I've never had water go up my nose jumping, diving or swimming under water. - Krusty Jul 13, 10:16 6
  - Up your nose with a rubber hose -- nm - Vinny Barbarino Jul 13, 10:23
  - i know, unless something weird happens, you aren't snorting water. -- nm - Andie Jul 13, 10:17 4
    - *raises hand* I would always have water come up my nose - Will Hunting Jul 13, 10:18 3
      - and there was no water left in the pool for anyone else. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 10:21
      - You're holding your breath wrong. ;-) - Krusty Jul 13, 10:21 1
        
        I always get water up mine as well. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 10:21
- Who wants water up their nose? -- nm - oblique Jul 13, 10:03 1
  - you're not doing it right -- nm - CQ Jul 13, 10:04
- I do. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 10:03 8
  - how do you do a cannonball? -- nm - CQ Jul 13, 10:04 7
    - I don't. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 10:04 6
      - "...at least not since that day..." -- nm - Reagen Jul 13, 10:05
      - loser -- nm - CQ Jul 13, 10:05 4
        
        while you are fucking off doing cannonballs, I am in the locker room banging the hot lifeguard. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 10:06 3
        
        I can't believe none of the women here took this opportunity to ask "how was he?" -- nm - JaxSean Jul 13, 10:27 1
        
        only your mind goes directly to GAY. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 13, 10:31
        
        you're singing the Baywatch song, aren't you? -- nm - CQ Jul 13, 10:07
I can't decide on the SS t-shirt to buy, mainly because the logo is so damn ugly. -- nm - LMS Jul 13, 10:01 3

        Those are 3 great young keeper WR's. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 13, 10:27
