  1. Oriental. 22 years ago as I was vociferously ingesting any literature I could about the ME and Islam, I noticed this term used a lot in literature. (Occidental being the West) Both of these terms are so twisted now I just don't use them.
  2. Yup. I grudgingly admit it can look impressive. But it ain't hard.
  3. Which is great when hunting ducks but the Harris there is more agile. Gyrfalcon for the colder climes.
  4. I had to go to the ER about six months ago with a fairly urgent need. (turned out fine) On the advice of a family friend I went to a more central Austin hospital. I was the only one there with any kind of urgent need. I waited a long time nearly passing out as person after person went up with a minor cough. When my turn came they didn't even bother asking me for insurance though I had my card out. It was eye-opening. I was hospitalized for a couple days. One early morning someone came to my door saying they were ready to take me for surgery. It took a little while to convince them I wasn't having surgery though they showed me the form with Mr. Walser on it. Though it likely put a damning entry on my patient note (a la Seinfeld) I checked myself out shortly afterwards.
  5. I learned last week that my boomer mother believes in chemtrails and my boomer aunt is going to school board meetings in an effort to ban books. She's doing this in an ISD in which she doesn't even pay taxes.
  6. It's the smell when you haven't taken a shit for a couple days and the dookie simmering.
  7. Brilliant. Sex: It's Fantastic!
  8. Recommend the podcast "About a Boy." It goes into depth about the life of Putin and the Russian psyche in general. In the historic consciousness of the Russian people, and the horrific experience of 27 million dying in WW2, this is nothing. Putin sees any number smaller than that as an acceptable cost to get the band back together. He believes at his core that the West is weak and will eventually get distracted and lose interest. Unfortunately he is probably right. We need to push hard and do it now.
  9. Ok, maybe I should have specified your PAT and not your RFC1918 addy. It's been a long day.
  10. Reminds me of that dirty hit George Harrison had on Colt in the NFL.
  11. You as well. Why are you so nice? I thought this was the Shag? Let's go argue in the recruiting forum or something!
  12. I also disagree. But I also respect your perspective. The thing is it's not just about the dog. It powerfully communicates the greater horror in a subtle manner. I guess I just feel it. But I could be wrong. Whatever you do don't go watch Futurama episode 61.
  13. hey what are you guys up to
