For those of you who go to the movies, please heed this warning. DO NOT GO SEE "IN THE BEDROOM." This was only the second movie I ever walked out of. My girlfriend brought me to the movie and even she wanted to leave. I have yet to wash the tase out of my mouth and am scarred for life. You know how some movies start out R-E-A-L S-L-O-W? Well this one started out slower and went down hill from there. Please, spare yourselves and your loved ones, avoid this pitiful excuse for entertainment.

I've been invited to join the masons by an old guy across the street. Think I should join? I think I heard somewhere that in order to join you first have to proclaim your faith in an allmight god. In that case I would not be able to join with a clean consience.

Sorry about that. I don't have a computer at home and I only come online once in a while at work. So my viewing of the posts is very spotty. My bad. Well let's not waste (waist?) the space. New subject. How come there are so many people named Mohammad (including variaions on the spelling) in the Islamic Middle East and so many named Jesus in the Catholic South & Central America, but in the USA and England there is no single name with the same predominance?

My first reaction is to remember a bumper sticker I saw once
"WHEN THE RAPTURE COMES, WE'LL HAVE THE PLANET TO OURSELVES!"
My second reaction is "prove it" -

11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.Let's face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple.
English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. One moose, 2 moose. One index, 2 indices. Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? If teachers taught, why don't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? People--- recite at a play and play at a recital, - ship by truck and send cargo by ship, park in a driveway, and drive on a parkway, have noses that run and feet that smell????? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which an alarm goes off by going on. When the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible. Why doesn't "Buick" rhyme with "quick"? Why is it called a hot water heater when you don't heat hot water? You heat cold water. It should be a cold water heater. And lastly, why do we say near miss? Things nearly hit if they miss. If it's a near miss, it would be a collision. "Those planes nearly missed, but they hit." -

Englishman, you keep your fish and fries...er...chips? with mayonaise on that side of the pond. I'm fine here with my root beer and double bacon cheese burger. Keep your tea too, I take my coffee black. But you know what? At least you guys don't live on curry. I used to live in an apartment where a lot of the tennants came from the middle east. God it stank.

That region of the world has been in constant turmoil and war since the dawn of recorded history. Something about the air or the sand or something affects the human body and makes it allergic to peace. Maybe there's some weird magnetic field thing going on, I don't know. I think the best way to deal with the problem is to set a deadline to evacuate the whole region. At the deadline, we launch all the nukes that we don't need any more and turn the whole area into a nuked out, radioactive wasteland. I'm telling you, it's not the people, its the area. Something weird is going on over there.

Now don't get me wrong, I love mayonaise. But what's up with putting it on fries? Root beer is wonderful, but whatever country produces Kettle One vodka should rule the world.

I've got some French, some English, and a little Native American. So I'm always fighting with myself, then when I'm done I smoke a bowl to calm down. I've got some other stuff in there too I think, I'm basicly a mut.

Island Woman, you raise an interesting point toward the end of your post. Whenever the "bash America" flag goes up, one of the favorite things for people to mention is the near anihilation of the Native Americans. I wonder how often people give thought to Spain's destruction of the Aztecs, or Brittan's wiping out of the Zulus, or Portugal's contamination of the ancient and proud civlizations of China and Japan? "Hi kettle, I'm the pot. You're black." So it looks like WE ALL SUCK! Yeah! Shame on all of us, let's go for ice cream!
