    What the heck is up with shipping companies lately?

    I had a FedEx delivery man leave a LCD monitor on the back porch of my apartment, which is in full view of the rest of the aparment complex instead of leaving it up at the front desk of the apt complex. Thank goodness no one took it. Sometimes you've gotta wonder about people's senses.

    Navy reusing state names as ships. All are now subs.

    The Ohio class subs carry 20 ICBMs that have the capacity of almost 200 thermonuclear warheads that can strike any target on the planet. It alone could wipe out an entire continent!! Any other ship pales in comparison to the amount of firepower these subs carry.

    Headache behind my left eye and my eyesight has gone to crud...

    I'm sure not a doctor, but it sounds to me like you're having a migraine. Do you see spots that shimmer? When I get them, that's what usually happens first though, then the pain comes usually behind one of my eyes. Not to scare you, but heres a link on acute angle closure glaucoma...

    Wanna go down south and hit up the rustic eateries, and take pictures :)

    Old Country Store on Highway 61 next to Alcorn State in Jefferson County here in MS if you want to go out of your way. Best fried chicken you'll ever eat. The owner/cook even comes out and sings old folk songs!! His fried chicken was featured in Southen Living Magazine I believe. It was on...

    Umm, our tax dollars paid for those aircraft, so I think we can say "we" if we please!

    Dawkins' "The God Delusion": One of the best books I've read in a while.

    Why am I jumping into this melee?! Anyway, an atheist from another board made an excellent observation. "Science attempts to exlpain how, while religion attempts to explain why." Most people want to know WHY they are here and for what purpose, not how they were made. Science cannot explain...

    So god damn cold this morning

    It's in the 70's here in the south. I'm wearing a short sleeve shirt in the middle of January. Of course we will get a 40 degree drop in temps overnight Monday making sure everybody gets sick. Crazy.

    Iraqi Insugents get PWNED!

    Those insurgents really seemed to be a really enthusiastic bunch at the beginning of the film. It had the look of, "yeah yeah, lets just get this over with." The instructors presentation must've bored them to death, literally.

    Why are so many Republicans intolerant and hateful?

    No I don't agree with the town. But, you are completely missing what I am arguing. The federal government should not actively promote promiscuous lifestyles. This is what it would be doing if it legalized homosexual marriage. Finally, you're pulling the old trick of putting the other person...

    Why are so many Republicans intolerant and hateful?

    Way to twist what I am trying to say. My argument is not about stopping homosexuals from what they do. My argument is about the government promoting the lifestyle which they will do if homosexual marriage is allowed.

    Why are so many Republicans intolerant and hateful?

    You choose to engage in the risky behavior. No one is forcing you to have sex, unless you think man is an animal and has no free will.

    Why are so many Republicans intolerant and hateful?

    See my post above where I had a link to the Washington Times article about the CDC report on AIDS. And to reply to your quote about heterosexuals getting STD's too, if you engage in risky behavior whether your a heterosexual or a homosexual, your going to reap what you sow. My point is the...

    Why are so many Republicans intolerant and hateful?

    Wow. Just Wow. Comparing inter-racial marriages to homosexuality is like comparing apples and oranges. First off, people who have Sickle Cell and other race related diseases CANNOT help it. They are born with it. AIDS on the other hand, is mostly caused by lifestyle choices with the...

    Why are so many Republicans intolerant and hateful?

    I quick google search brought this up. HIV rate for gay men rises, CDC says Look at what happens when people do not view marriage as sacred. Adultery, divorce, damage of reputation, loss of trust, destruction of families, destruction of finances, kids who have to go through which parent...

    So instead of debating the issue, you just decide to put me down.

    Why are so many Republicans intolerant and hateful?

    So you would just rather see them continue living a lifestyle that could possibly kill them? Thats really thoughtful. I don't like homosexuality because it KILLS people. Its akin to watching someone play Russian Roullette. Would you allow a friend to put a gun to his head and pull the trigger...

    Why are so many Republicans intolerant and hateful?

    Many people are against gay marriage because it would be a sign to the nation that the government considers homosexuality an acceptable lifestyle. Many people (including myself) view homosexuality as a destructive lifestyle. How many people must die of AIDS and other STD's before we realize...

    Religion

    Well DVK916, those wonderful athiests Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Kim Jung Il (sp?), Lenin, etc. have been wonderful contributors of society haven't they? Those fellows have probably murdered more people than all the inquisitions, crusades, etc combined. So to say that removing religion is going to...

    Religion

    Then tell them that they are not following what they believe. Jesus stated that if a person does not accept the gospel, the person witnessing should "knock the dust off their sandals" as a sign and move on (in other words, leave them alone).

    Religion

    Why does it seem athiests are the people who are most interested in God? It's seems to me an athiest would care less if people believe in a god or not. I mean, we all end up in the ground as worm food.

    Mississippi is even more backwards than I thought

    Frankly, this whole issue of kids having sex shows the lack of common sense in people today. Shouldn't the consequences such as getting pregnant, catching STD's, damaging your reputation, and so forth cross the minds of these kids and their parents? Furthermore, something is seriously wrong...

    Mississippi is even more backwards than I thought

    Being a fellow Mississippian, I would advise you to put your child in a private school if you have the funds. Several areas of the state have notoriously bad public schools (the delta region especially). Some areas though have good public schools such as Tupelo and Madison, but most of the...

    What will happen

    The US could easily defeat China without really even having to fire a single shot. With over 1 billion mouths to feed and not having sufficient natural resources, a naval blockade would bring China to its knees within a matter of months. China currently has an small blue water navy and would...

    College Football?

    Yes, most of the schools in the major conferences make A LOT of money off of football. BCS bowl teams get $15 million for playing in the bowls. In the SEC, the money is pooled and split up among the 12 teams. Tickets for most games cost around $30-50, so football does generate a good bit of...
