  1. I second Adam. You sometimes present real points for discussion, but your sarcastic repetitions just make you sound stupid, even for a primate. Do you speak so in real life?
  2. jts, IRONY IS NOT YOUR FORTE. Leave it to pros.
  3. Pitiful -- sounds like me in delivery room sans meds!
  4. Of Pearsons 5 years. so momentous for my future life, I remember little of political debate except for nukes (we discussed in Current Events class) and Red Ensin/Maple Leaf (wildfire all over town). In our family Dad was quietly pro new emblem. Stuart matriarc and formidable stepma Lib was loudly pro Union Jack. Late beloved Stillman was encasketed under Union Jack, end of story. Aunts were on side of Dad but did not dare say so. My traditionalist Ma was torn - Da Farnam took opposite side to everybody, just to be ornery - uncles did not care and just wanted peace and quiet. j Resurface in 1984, Lib told funeral director to put Union Jack on my dads casket, and it was my task to countermand as instructed by Ma. I was never really pardoned.

    No Fun Cities

    I am a fan of Las V Jail and Strip on TV reality. Cops are so cute.
  6. Coincidence, Zombieland is on TV now! Bill Murray is fabulous.
  7. I yell a lot about Mayor Rob Ford to students. And I leave astute comments on blackboard.
  8. A closer analysis would establish that it is your right eye...and you should see the other pictures that I have...I know you want to forget that weekend...

  9. Carol: "Not yet learned" would be understandable for not liking Rush Limbaugh. However, the simplicity of copying a phrase and then pasting it is not open to the "not yet learned" excuse. http://www.ctdlc.org/remediation/copypaste.html <<<<enjoy a new skill... Yippee! Now I can borrow superior content and pass off as my own!
  10. So you're going to station a gestapo jack boot agent at every machine shop in commercial culture and homes to make sure hundreds of years old technology to protect life and limb are not produced - so only the jack boots can decide the intent of commercial culture? I can see you are serious - which makes me wonder if a few words by Rand about something she knew nothing about over-rules every other aspect of her work. Why do you think Objectivism gets labeled a cult so often? Rand and Peikoff are/were allowed to make mistakes - and this is an unfortunate example of a mistake contrary to the rest of the body of Rand's work. She was raised in a Marxist culture then lived in cities with Marxist leaning culture. Taking away weapons is the first step to tyranny. If the US were not giving Western civilization a free rider on security all those social democracies which don't permit gun ownership would have collapsed into total fascism or communism by now. It is not a complicated topic.

We do not live in Cold War mode anymore,and importation of American pistols does not improve our lives.
  11. Now Adam, it is your territory and your scales of justice, I can only look at your leaders from outside, I only asked you to take a look at one of ours, a contemporary of LBJ (um, no love lost between ) I did enjoy Lyndons colourful injunction to our poor PM --Dont come in etc
  12. I stand corrected. Maybe Just Say No Nancy invaded my brainwaves. Nixon is underrated, I always disliked but always respected and in a way admired your pivotal president. Personality overcame policy for Tricky Dick.
  13. War on Substances does not proceed all so well, also ... a Ronald R initiative I believe.
  14. Autres temps autres moeurs I suppose. Autre pays. I still revere Pearson.
  15. I just mean, said letters will not respond to touc on keyboard. I mean on my keyboard not for paste and cut (not yet learned)
  16. O my lord , Kea is a real find, I would alter one word from trouble to....a more positive one, but all else is so fine. I am on Team Persuasion forever and infact wrote a fanfic continuation, I love Anne and Fred so. (Was forced to kill off for plot reasons, but)
  17. O Ellen! iwayman was required memorisation in my 7 class...maybe Davies was in same system... it aderes I can tell you. I can still recite it and many more. O I detested I must be up and doin every minute, (Cemetery allows)time for rest wen we are in it... times miserable old jalopy revs its motor near...tow it away I say.
  18. Oooooboyz... now LA knows, everybody loses sometime. Back to desert.I only pray new Coyotes owner now dickers avec Quebec.
  19. OK, fair comment. It is still of interest to me. I used to work in Personnel - it was soon renamed. US and Canadian employment laws are very different , and work is an arena of fascination.
