Why is it that we have to get ournews from the UK? Is there not one US new org that can/will do it? -Freak Out!

there is no US new org

well...

AoS.

Holy cow, I broke into a top ten list. Fortunately, it was not the top ten posters list. Whew.

My secret, patented formula for breaking into the top ten sock puppeteers list can be yours in one easy payment: just put a quarter in a can of warm Coca-Cola overnight and all your wishes will come true.

Fame... glory... it's what's for dessert.

How one gets to be the smartest guy in the room.

"...any one who serves especially in a combat zone dealing with heavy dangerous equipment or people whether they are actually Military or Civilian helpers put their lives at risk and I tip my hat to all of them." -Nevergiveup

Amen!

The thread is maybe cold and long, but I wanted to remark... and so I will.

Hard as that was to watch personally, I was clinically intrigued by the six or eight frames showing the pancaking of the plane before the explosion. After 9/11, what happens upon impact to those fragile little tubes was much discussed, and although I understood the physics of collapse and disintegration, this vid was a demonstration of how, under the right force, there's not much left.

"The south Texas Eagle Ford field is now the largest oil and gas production field in the world. 6 years ago it was barely a blip."

You're welcome.

I'm trying to decide if that's disgusting for the pissing or hot for the anger... -Washington Nearsider

Yes.

so. boring. droning on ....and....... on....*gasp* -thunderb

Heh. I was just thinking, this is the only way to watch a TFG press conf: through the filter of AoS.

Oh, and in closing, just FYI, Congress is dissolved, and the armed forces will be dissolved just as fast as I can transfer all their stuff to the TSA.

Thanks for playing. Cucumber sandwiches and pinot noir in the lobby.

"Coincidentally (or not), the couple moonlighted for years as Siegfried and Roy impersonators."

Ha! No one suspects I am the mastermind behind it all.

that banana with dreads is pretty cool...... - phoenixgirl

heh - best response.

@epobirs & #USA&Mexico...

When I was a kid, it was a thrill when Alaska & Hawaii joined the USA. My state was only #46. It all seemed still fresh and growing. I once imagined the USA being so good, working so well, other states would just naturally continue to join us, states of Mexico, provinces of Canada. I really thought that. Still seems workable, if we were run right again.

Kids dreams. Like my naive, youthful wondering why the United States didn't have FIFTY seats at the United Nations, and since nation and state mean the same thing, what need is there for a UN when you already have a USA?

how many Morons here have ever used an outhouse? -Vic

Can't even remember where, long ago, but I recall I was truly disappointed not to find a Sears catalog hanging on the wall. Just reg'lar t.p.

For my home, an outhouse would be an upgrade. (Prayers welcome.)

At the annual one-day ceremonial meeting of the US Congress today, the Presidential praise ceremony was led by Sen. Meghan McCain. His highness was introduced by Sec. of Defense Tsarnaev. Lord Obama was dressed in his union-purple robes, waved his sceptre, and departed, to wild unipartian applause.

"We're 100 days into President Obama's second term and he has yet to move any piece of his legislative agenda."

I don' neeed no steenkeng legislation.
I do it all by regulation.

hate for y'all to have your illusions shattered about my intelligence and all... - Tammy al-Thor

I only read you for the articles...

wait... what?

Now I get to leave my nice big screen and fat net connection and crawl back into my cell and the drifting IPs that keep me out of the top 10s, so there's that.

But Tammy al-Thor. So I'm alive.

Hello I must be going

So I read comments backward from 500 to 400. Then I read the post below the fold. Then I read a few comments from the top. First, someone said. Can you imagine? Then I read comments forward from 500.

My analysis is, this thread is confused about its identity, unsure of its direction, and faltering and stumbling in its progress.

Nice to see everything's normal.

Okay, I've finished reading the morning news headlines. What else is there?

Wait... it's dark already?

Hey, I found the doggie hidden in the picture almost right away!

What do I win?
