Oooh! Er, what rare ones? (I assume you mispelled rare and not rear).

Of course if I knew about them they wouldn't be rare now would they?

Two things people claim they don't want to talk about - religion and politics. But what else is there to talk about that has any real meaning?

The reason people get angry about those subjects are because they are important and worth discussing, otherwise they would not care.

What a great scene. :) I can just see Quentyn in a Western movie, riding off into the sunset, with Colin waving goodbye to him. "Come back, Shane!" Perfect image. Good for Quentyn - he saved the town but still remembers Colin and worries about him. I suspect Colin will be in his prayers for a long ...

Nope - if you ain't getting older you're dead.

The "Acts / Communist" claim is an old one, but I guess it's still floating around. There are any number of similar tales invented decades ago to support Communism, usually centered on a time or event that is dear to the American heart. I still hear the one about the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock occas...

I have all of them - handy to put on the local computer or LAN.

Back when I was in college we set up a friend for a surpise party by getting him out of the dorm by having me dress as a "townie" and hang around his car looking at his expensive hub caps. (yes, we had cars back then) He looked out of the window, saw me, and came down with a bunch of friends (who we...

Beats the alternative.

Don't look at me, I still measure in footcandles.

Maybe Quentyn could loan the curtain rod to Lady Millfolk.

Dang straight. And the primary key in most cases is parental involvement , aside from a small percentage of self-motivated kids. If the parents care, the kids do well. The best short answer. Any public school that works at all works because of parents investing themselves in their children. Also wh...

We seem to get along better with those we've fought - Britain, Spain, Germany, Japan, etc. So to get along better with the French we should declare war on them! On a lighter note, you forgot Mexico, Narnian. We seem to get along fine with them too. I'd say Canada too, but they were British at the t...

I would have more sympathy with the doctor if he said he screwed up bad and took responsibility - but he didn't. He laughed off his wrong diagnosis.

When I was a kid the alphabet only had 8 letters and fire was new. I went to public school myself to learn cave painting, hunting and gathering. We sent our daughter to a small Christian school and later homeschooled her for a few years. When she went to high school she had among the highest test sc...

When I read this at first I thought you said "Ru Paul Republican". Had me worried for a moment.

Too bad Lily didn't deliver it herself, then we could have had a cheesecake shot of Lily ...

Let's say you have a neighbor who appears to be a nice guy - you chat and exchange pleasantries on occassion and all seems well. But then you find out he is hanging around the children's playground and talking with kids. Then you find out he was arrested for exposing himself to kids. Would you trus...

You seem to enjoy reading into what someone says - I never said that and would not advocate it. But I would say someone who is a member of a group that supports the violent overthrow of our country (communists, Islamofascists, Girl Scouts, etc.) should be monitored. I'm not reading into anything. I...

The problem is true communists and far leftists do not view their opponents as human beings created in the image of God but as obstacles to be overcome - the gulags in the Soviet Union, the killing fields in Cambodia, the Red Guard in communist China and the concentration camps of the National Soci...

What I meant was send them to Cuba for a few months, show them how fun and wonderfull it really is. And hate to break it to you, there were and still are cummie pinkos in hollywood. And what if there are? What is it to you someone else's views on politics? I am well aware there are communist among ...
