It seemed to me a marketing blunder by Toshiba. I know next to nothing about the differences between HD DVD and Blue-Ray in terms of which one is better. However, from my non-techie point of view, "Blue-Ray" sounds more cooler (hence better) than…
Why would they want to remember Winston Churchill, he is everything "modern" Europeans hate (he was fairly right about the creation of Israel..big ass mistake).
"There is no greater mistake than to suppose that platitudes, smooth words, and …

I luv me some Tex-Mex / Mexican food (just about every dish). Chineese & Thai food are my second favorite ethnic choices (spicy stuff), though I tend to stay away from curry sauces (don't care for it much). Outside of Italian food, I'm not a h…
I'm all for allowing people to kill themselves via a process that is lengthy and painful. Only a couple of issue's need to be resolved. The first issue is, kill yourself not me. If you want to smoke in YOUR house or YOUR car be my guest but once…
John McCain had it right and for the most part the anti-illegal immigration folks are a tad off their rocker (the whole OMG its amensty, the horror!). Sure we need to go about protecting our border and stopping further illegal immigration (fence, m…

Under a "24 hour" scenario (doomsday - time critical) and if you are fairly confident your "subject" has the info (had prior intell on the guy) then maybe you can justify the use of torture. However, that TV situation simply doesn't play out in the…

If anything, genocide in Africa should be Europe's responsibility...colonialism screwed up Africa (and Iraq, too) to where it is now.

There is nothing "benevolent" about the United Nations and its member Nations, particularly where it comes to Africa. If the UN or any of its members "act", know it is simply because we have found another way to screw African's out of their natural…
Even though I have a tendency to vote Republican, I consider myself more of an Independent. If the Republican Party was much more aligned with the Paleoconservative agenda then I'd probably consider myself a Republican. However, the Neocons run th…
While Scientology has some strange beliefs, that isn't what really makes it dangerous to an individual (and society). Religious Cult's, and Scientology is one, use psychological means to gain new members and to control them. Once they set their ho…
There is no doubt in my mind that pyschologists have done some shaddy / wrong acts in the past or that we might be overmedicating our children but Scientologists take it a step to far. There ARE legitimate mental health reasons for pyschology to ex…
It is hard not to laugh at Tom Cruise's antics but once you realize that his life is being destroyed / controlled by a Cult (Scientology) you have to pity the guy. He isn't a bad guy and I don't believe he (and other lay members) intend any real ha…
Presentation is everything. If your point was to make someone look stupid and to be an asshole, you did a good job Olddaddy. If you wanted to teach an ignorant Soldier why his comments were without merit and wrong, you did a piss poor job. He rea…
Since you wanted a child, Congrats. Though I don't have any kid's, my brother and a good portion of my friends have all had children. From what I've gathered, your gaming time can take a drastic hit or it can be largely unaffected (a few variables…
I had a good time playing Diablo 1 & 2. No it wasn't a difficult game to play but it was relaxing & fun to play. I enjoyed killing stuff and identifying armor / etc. in the hopes that I'd find something really good. Was the game an RPG, o…

Clinton can't win the independent votes, which is why Obama is doing so well in NH. If Clinton should somehow become the Democratic nominee, it (lack of independent votes) will be replayed in the general election and the Republican party will likel…
I believe it was the Reagan era that Republican's went after the Evangelical vote. Unfortunately most them aren't interested in fiscal conservatism, the Bill of Rights or the right of the individuals to be left a lone. "Conservatism" to them mean'…
