Great role in NCIS, I will have to watch that one again. He played many great parts over his career.

This is at the center of the OP. Not forcing someone to go against their beliefs by reciting something they do not believe in. Why should anyone be forced to pretend to have a belief they do not in order for society to accept them?

Not a sports name like most assume, picked for Ma-ka-tai-me-she-kia-kiak. He, Wapello, and his rival Keokuk, had statues, and lots of things named for them where I grew up.

It was between the Stones, and Black Sabbath for me, but gotta go with Black Sabbath. No CCR?

I'm still waiting on Puerto Rican Statehood. Where the hell are we on that? They voted for closer ties including statehood, and dammit I want a 51st state! They have been a US territory for over 100 hundred years, and have sent troops to every major war we have fought since the beginning of...

Massachusetts, I don't like they way they pronounce "chowder". We have to keep Louisiana, they have the best food (Cajun & Creole), plus the best music (The Blues). For those two thing I can forgive a lot.

I save the long ones for tooth picks, economical that way.

1-are you religious? No 2-would you legalize prostitution? Yes 3-should condoms be required in pornos? No 4-do you support abortion? I don't like it, but should be left to a woman, and sometimes her doctor. 5-do you think marijuana and other drugs should have the same status as tobacco? (either...

I confess, I actually think the video for Taylor Swift's new pop song is actually funny. She is surrounded by professional dancers, and is obviously not as good as they, so she acts the dork also I am now listening to ABBA and thinking of jacking it. Oh, and I like listening to Enya, there I...

Yeah i get a feeling similar to that, I usually wait if I can to let it cool down. If I can't wait I do this:

Downloading the preview release now to install in a virtual machine. Free and good through March if you sign up for it.

Koch Brothers: is it pronounced kosh, coach, cooch, or cock?

Actually I preferred Contagion over Outbreak. Gwyneth Paltrow cheats on her husband, gets a disease, and dies a horrible death. A good movie, there were other parts, but that's what I remember most.

Once again I find myself in agreement with Rey (we've got to stop doing this). The point of the thread was to show how silly it is to believe the issue can be resolved with a quick sound-bite. Both sides plus the middle need to stop pointing fingers, and work together on the parts we all agree...

Oddly the deadlier the disease the less likely for a real outbreak. It needs hosts to spread it, thus if it kills most of the hosts, and kills fast it isn't likely to be a pandemic. As much as the media tries to convince us that Ebola can become a pandemic they're full of shit. The seasonal...

Originally a fertilized egg in a cozy little womb, currently Iowa.

It is still a touch cheaper to build a high-end gaming system than to buy a pre-built, not by much though, and I mean high end! Did you hear the new Windows was announced today, the successor to Windows 8 is Windows 10. WTF!

So far I like Gotham a lot, i like the re-imagining, and to be honest there really is no canon in the DC universe. They have done two full reboots, plus numerous partial reboots over the years, so that no character has had the exact same origin. At this point 90% of the stories pre 1985 are no...

Do you live in a hole? I have worked with Muslims before, the ones I worked with followed the dietary habits, and that was about it. Hell one of my female team mates was a Muslim immigrant from East Africa, I worked with her everyday for three months, before I realized she was a Muslim. There...

Where is your avatar from? Looks familer, but I can't place it.

Sadly the overwhelming majority of people know how to use a computer, but know nothing about them; however in the late 70's through the 80's people who had computers usually knew a fair amount about them. On the surface technology is now so simple anyone can use it without knowing anything...

Had to look that up, now that I know what it means: 1st an accurate description, 2nd adding that one to the vocabulary! Thanks Ace!

You would really think some basic safety would be in the curriculum. Even some minor stuff on routers, and firewalls would help.

:goodpost: "You must spread some reputation around before giving it to D-rock again" You summed up my views of it quite nicely.

I used to have a cut off statement: If you can remember where you were at when you heard that President Kennedy had been shot you are old.

She is under the C, in fact on her page the fitness gallery, 2nd from bottom still leads to a partially working gallery. When the archive takes a snapshot of a web page they trawl all of a sites internal links and preserve them, and they occasionally even link to a few external sites if those...

Wow, that was Internet Explorer 3 days. The Dragonball audio still works! I forgot all about 1 by day, I think I had a membership at one point. Please tell me you are joking about the Dreamcast? One of my favorite systems I still have mine hooked up! You could get it to run anything by...

So kind of like teaching them to drive, by putting it in gear, and pressing the accelerator, but not telling them anything about the brake?

Hosted by The Internet Archive it lets you view websites as they once were. Playboy 1999 I remember this layout: http://web.archive.org/web/19970306220718/http://www.playboy.com/ I was actually a beta tester one of the lucky few who signed up and was given a free membership before it went live...

I haven't been in school for a long time. When I went you were lucky to get 30 minutes a week on the lone Commodore the school owned. None of the teachers knew how to use it, you just sat there alone with a book on Basic, and hoped you could make it do something. I was checking my own network...

Caligula was a bastard but he did one thing i find funny; He was convinced any one could do a better job then the current Roman Senate, so to prove his point he made his horse a member of the Senate. Fucking kills me :) We all know who the real monster of history was: I had to watch that...

I'm a depressed whiny drunk, why I don't drink any more, that and it takes a shitload of alcohol to get me drunk.

Thanks for the rep, glad I am not the only one driven nuts by that look!

Thanks for the rep, glad I am not the only one who finds that sexy!

Guess I am odd, when a woman wears something comfortable to bed, t-shirt, panties, socks. Drives me nuts.

Yes it would be cool, per my Google search Aristotle was believed to be buried on the other side of Greece from where this tomb is at. Plus he and Alexander had a falling out before Alexander's death. The only link to Alexander right now is the age, per the article it was built during his...

Great now that you said that the sun is going to explode before morning, just like washing your car causes it to rain. Think Dino think!

A sign of age for me was having co-workers who were born after I had graduated from college.

I wish my prediction of this hadn't come true, it will get far worse.

My definition of old changes as I age, you are still wet behind the ears.

I can see an independent Texas invading the Northern neighbors over water rights. Oh it isn't the iPhone itself that people want, just a bigger screen to view porn that keeps the piece :)

Per the BBC this tomb is larger and grandeur then King Phillip II, Alexander's father. Alexander's burial place has been lost to history though he is believed to have been buried in Egypt. Archaeologists think this could be his mother's or another member of the family. I really hope this...

What I was thinking as well.

:goodpost: It is the same nincowpoops at every level of government.

Yes, because Europe has such a long history of peaceful co-existence. :nanner: Granted the US government likes to drag us into foreign wars at a drop of the hat, but there hasn't been a war fought in the continental areas of Canada or the US since the Indian wars of the 1890's, major battle...

2nd! Oh great wise man Dino please reveal this hidden knowledge to your unworthy followers!

That was a good story-line, J. M. DeMatteis had a good one around the same time in Spectacular Spider-Man "The Child Within" #178-184. Harry Osborne returns as the evil Green Goblin this story-line finally led into Spectacular Spider-Man #200, another great issue. free image host Summary on...

They have odd prohibitions my friend is member, and shaved his beard due to a prohibition. Mustache = OK, Beard = No. Makes no sense to me, but he is happy in life, so whatever floats his boat.

Jehovah's Witness also prohibit smoking.
