    - But then we played last week... (nm) - David Nov 28, 17:24 3
      - No, last week I scored 145 points, best in the league, silly. -- nm - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Nov 28, 17:27 2

- OJ isn't really a thirst-quencher. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 16:48
Kentucky passes law requiring Homeland Security to credit 'God" as part of their mission statement. - zeitgeist Nov 28, 16:40 33
- recognize that government itself can't secure the state without God - DaneDukeNuuk Nov 28, 17:32
- I'd want a similar resolution requiring him to rub a lucky rabbit's foot every time he makes a policy decision. -- nm - Reagen Nov 28, 17:12 4
  - (that or thanking God for not having anything in Kentucky worth being a target) -- nm - Reagen Nov 28, 17:14 3
    - Everyone has something worth being a target. In Kentucky's case ... - Beryllium Nov 28, 17:22 2
      - Anyone angry with almost any powerful family in the Middle East could easily find a target in Kentucky. MANY Middle Easterners have millions invested - sheba Nov 28, 17:26 1
        
        maybe we should get the godfather to negotiate for us -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 28, 18:19
- And that is different from the extremist terrorists how? -- nm - HdnAgnda Nov 28, 16:42 26
  - You know, I agree the bill is goofy, but c'mon ... - ReluctantCynic Nov 28, 17:43 1
    - Oh thank....God (heh) - Stephen Nov 28, 17:48
  - You mean besides the whole not killing people thing? -- nm - Stephen Nov 28, 16:44 22
    - I am not talking about the acts committed, I am talking about calling down God on a side. -- nm - HdnAgnda Nov 28, 17:20
    - Christian extremists are hardly innocent of murder. Granted, the Kentucky Assembly language does not enourage it, but - sheba Nov 28, 16:49 1
      - this is a much better written response than mine. - truman Nov 28, 16:51
    - christianity has been used as an excuse to kill tens of thousands of people - truman Nov 28, 16:46 17
      - last year alone? - DaneDukeNuuk Nov 28, 17:34
      - And that has what to do with the language of the bill? -- nm - Stephen Nov 28, 16:57 12
        
        It has to do with the very nature of language. Language is not absolute. Every written word is open to interpretation. And interpretations - sheba Nov 28, 17:06 8
        
        none of which makes them the equivalent of terrorists... -- nm - Stephen Nov 28, 17:07 7
        
        no only theocrats -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Nov 28, 17:34
        
        Baby steps. -- nm - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Nov 28, 17:11
        
        IMO, those who would inject religion into the language of the State, may not be equal to terrorists, but they are very close. - sheba Nov 28, 17:11 4
        
        oh good grief. -- nm - Stephen Nov 28, 17:12 3
        
        The way I see everything I've ever seen or read on the subject. Terrorism begins with a *mandate from God*. At first, perfectly innocent and seemingly - sheba Nov 28, 17:22 1
        
        Exactly. -- nm - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Nov 28, 17:24
        
        The seed sprouts from somewhere. Don't give it a fertile Eden to infect. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 17:18
        
        my specific problems with this bill is this - truman Nov 28, 17:00 2
        
        Yes. It always starts small, is a slippery slope, and undermines co-existence. -- nm - HdnAgnda Nov 28, 17:22
        
        I agree. -- nm - sheba Nov 28, 17:08
      - And if you don't like history books, just about any newspaper of magazine will do. Just look for the murders of women's health doctors or gays. -- nm - sheba Nov 28, 16:51 2
        
        Which again has nothing to do with the language of the bill. - Stephen Nov 28, 17:00 1
        
        Sorry. I type very slowly. I answered above. :) -- nm - sheba Nov 28, 17:07
    - I don't think he means the DHS is similar to the extremists, I think he means non-secular state law is ... -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 16:45
  - because they're good *christians*, that's how -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 16:43
So, Cujo got pissy that I left the house to do some fence work. He ate through my front door moulding. - Will Hunting Nov 28, 16:03 9
- You might want to look into some basic doggy training. Here, the Parks and Recreation dept do a class every 3-4 months. We noticed a big difference - Trish Nov 28, 16:40 1
  - heck, petsmart/petco both offer training sessions. -- nm - truman Nov 28, 16:53
- serious separation issues, just hope he doesn't decide to dig a cave in your couch as dogs have been known to disembowl a couch or stuffed chair - zeitgeist Nov 28, 16:28
- hmm - truman Nov 28, 16:14
- We saw the pics of the door. Nasty business. -- nm - Redmond Nov 28, 16:07
- Cujo isn't his actual name, is it? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 16:05 3
  - No, it's Murphy. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 28, 16:07 2
    - I would go with Cujo. - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Nov 28, 16:48 1
      - I was thinking more like Hooch. Or Murray, but Murray was well-behaved. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 16:48
Looks like we might get a Five Guys Burger around here soon.... -- (link) - MojaveMeg Nov 28, 15:59 18
- I'm bordering on seething with envy. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Nov 28, 16:26
- We just got one a couple months ago. -- nm - Redmond Nov 28, 16:02 6
  - We did? When? - ReluctantCynic Nov 28, 16:28 5
    - I posted it here twice. It's on Ceder Hills Blvd and Walker road in Beaverton -- nm - Redmond Nov 28, 16:45
    - i linked you to the cockadoody map on the website! -- nm - pigby Nov 28, 16:29 3
      - WHEN?!?! - ReluctantCynic Nov 28, 16:31 2
        
        don't make me tron it -- nm - pigby Nov 28, 16:32 1
        
        You don't need to -- I'm on my way there right now. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Nov 28, 16:37
- 11 points for the "little burgers". That's generally all I get when I go. -- nm - Callisto Nov 28, 16:01 9
  - There's a funny sidenote to this. - David Nov 28, 16:21 7
    - And how did the spit in the burger change the points? -- nm - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Nov 28, 16:45 1
      - a little spit was the least thing he had to be worried about - - 'lia Nov 28, 17:10
    - Oh, I love it. And I thought *I* was being obsessive about my points :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Nov 28, 16:29
    - did they add any special sauces to the final burger? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 16:26 3
      - Oops. Should have read the responses. - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Nov 28, 16:46
      - probably. It was still good -- nm - Callisto Nov 28, 16:37 1
        
        :) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 16:39
  - Sounds like a 'special occasion' meal :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Nov 28, 16:17
Dammit ... I forgot to go to the library to pick up my books on hold, and I have to go today. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Nov 28, 15:55
from bb, that "toxic wife" story ticked me off. as if the husbands have no free will. -- nm - b! Nov 28, 15:47 14
- oh, yes, and women should be able to overpower absuive husbands, too. No reason why not. ;-) - Beryllium Nov 28, 15:54 3
  - did i miss mention of actual abuse? - b! Nov 28, 16:01 2
    - No, I was saying that psychological abuse and physical abuse aren't all that different - Beryllium Nov 28, 16:01 1
      - only the first incident was described as an abusive one, but they didn't say it was more than that one time. - b! Nov 28, 16:09
- the whole thing is funny to me. When bad things happen to bad people. -- nm - Reagen Nov 28, 15:50 9
  - Wait, the men who had the misfortune of marrying a "toxic wife" are the bad people in this scenario? -- nm - Stephen Nov 28, 16:16 7
    - i think people usually end up with the spouse they deserve - pigby Nov 28, 16:28 3
      - i don't agree with that. subject line starting with that people change sometimes, and you can't always predict that. - b! Nov 28, 16:32 2
        
        Yeah, I don't agree with that either. -- nm - Stephen Nov 28, 16:40
        
        fix that, please: "i don't agree with that subject line." -- nm - b! Nov 28, 16:33
    - for me: i don't think they're necessarily bad, i'm just saying they're not necessarily complete victims either. - b! Nov 28, 16:26 1
      - I'm just thinking that if the women married the men for their money, and the men married the women for their looks their both bad... - Stephen Nov 28, 16:41
    - That's the presumption, yes; that they were shallow enough to opt for a trophy wife. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 28, 16:19
  - i can see that, except when kids are involved. -- nm - b! Nov 28, 15:55

  - might I recommend the Inhumans by Jae Lee trade? And Silent War Trade as well. -- nm - Butcher Pete Nov 28, 16:27 4

  - wait, you didn't like Fables? -- nm - Beaker Nov 28, 16:52 5
    - Never have. - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Nov 28, 16:57 4
      - but the Inhumans part with - spoils - Beaker Nov 28, 16:59 3
        
        Oh, when I said "last" I meant the entire Inhumans part. Have always been a big fan and your IM was spot on. spoil - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Nov 28, 17:04 2
