it was so well-recieved at the time that i thought i would repost it here for your enjoyment.. ______________________________________________________________________.

the uninitiated reader of course naturally assumes that satan would be the master of deception, but in actuality, while he is the malevolent arch-deceiver, jehovah is actually the master.

Let's see, you posted this, when? 1999? Ah yes, I remember. That was about the time you were telling us that the Y2K bug would destroy the world's economy and precipitate the end.

That ol' deceiver certainly had you fooled, didn't he!

EEEEwwww...What is it with British Art?

these are toys just released in the us inspired by british filmmaker clive barker (hellraiser).

those are some of the tamer ones.

i doubt youll see these in most mainstream toy stores.

Todd's come a long way. I remember when he was nothing but a sometime artist for Marvel, drawing Spiderman. I note that he's also teamed with H.R. Giger... a pairing at least as noteworthy as the one with Barker.

Homeless "Pete"

there is a homeless man (ill call him pete) that stands on a street corner nearby my home.

hes been on this corner since i moved into this neighborhood almost 4 years ago.

a staple to our community really.

COMF

You don't have to know the difference, Billygoat. They're all con artists. There is never any need for anyone to stake out a corner by a freeway exit, or a median at a busy intersection. There are lots of programs to assist down-and-out people to get food, jobs, housing and medical care. Truly down-and-out folks know where these places are, and how to use them.

Folks camped out on the corner are there because they choose to be, not because there's nothing else for them to do. You're here in Dallas, with me. Just take a harder look at some of them, next time you're sitting at the red light. Look over about 10 or 15 feet away from them, to where their gear is stashed. The plastic cooler, the backpack, the radio, the umbrella for when they're taking a "work" break.

Those guys are doing pretty good. I've heard cases of guys saying they make $40,000 or better a year doing that.

A friend of mine and I had an ongoing joke about it, about how the city should license street corners and advertise.

Corner Franchises!
Are you tired of working all day? Want to stand around doing nothing and still make good money? City of Dallas Corner Bums Department has premium corners available for licensing. Your free starter kit comes complete with two full changes of torn, filthy clothing and one cardboard sign, emblazoned with your choice from a variety of messages, including:

"Homeless, have hungry family, will work for food"
"Homeless, hungry - please help, and may God bless"
"Vietnam Vet, disabled due to Agent Orange."
"Sick, homeless, need $$$ for doctor, please help"
"Unemployed dotcommer, will build e-commerce websites for food"

If you think you have what it takes to be a successful corner bum, call now! But hurry... freeway exits are going fast! Act now to reserve your place in the exciting world of con artistry!

i am interested in knowing why you jw's seem so sure you have the truth?

are you just brainwashed or do you really have the facts to back up your claims?

why you jw's seem so sure you have the truth?

How long do people keep believing something after they realize it isn't true?

One gay mans opinion

peace and love to everyone,.

the purpose of this post is not..let me repeat not to start a flame war, so as my mother use to tell me, if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

ok so it doesn't have to be nice but please try and keep it civil.

COMF

Are you sure you have the right board? I thought we were remarkably supportive of homosexuals here. Maybe I haven't been reading the right threads. With the exception of Yadirf, You Know and maybe a couple of others, who's been flaming gays? And you can't take those guys seriously, they're just here for comic relief.
