So the trial of Saddam Hussein has begun. The question isn't how will it end, but when will the trigger be pulled? Does anyone think he's getting a trial that isn't already decided? Does anyone think Saddam will walk? I'm on the edge of my seat! From the Washington Post : The trial of Saddam Hussein is just beginning, and already it h
What?! Pardon me?! You're gonna hold the guy for a week before deciding on bail? Didn't the mo-fo just escape from prison?! Why isn't he being immediately sent back there? (Yeah, I know he just got a bunch of new charges piled on that he has to appear in court for, but really!) Seems the judge thinks Thompson might be a

My kids are so funny. We just moved here from Texas, so this is our first true winter since 1998. We're not used to snow. We're not familliar with snow. We see movies about snow, but we just don't seem to get any snow. Not the real lasting kind, certainly. We had ice storms in Texas, but no real snow of any volume. So last night my kids were in a tizzy.
I will trust that the link was an honest mistake and comment on Hillary's opposition to flag-burning... she is just trying to endear herself to the "moderate Republican" and the "centrists" out there. Even though she is a militant left-wing nutcase just like the rest of them. Take that flag off, youngster! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/JU/smiles/Cool.g
that's about how high i rank the intelligence of the dog-brained official who was so overawed by the brilliance of richard reid's nefarious shoebomb scheme, he or she proclaimed no uninspected shoe would ever step onto a commercial flight again. It's absolutely true... they claim random inspections, but
rankless peer-peer TS/SCI discussion forum in the fasion of a JWICS Joe User. It's a good idea that has been adopted on the server at work. I hope more people use it. A lot of people don't know about it and those that do are afraid to post ideas to it in fear that it will be used against them one da
By the way, that took about fifteen seconds to get the actual figures from the Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics. Thank you Google! Why do we have to do your homework for you, COL Curmudgeon?
In my humble opinion, I think if the actual rate of unemployment works out to only 1.5 million people in the whole United States, that's a pretty good figure. But unfortunately it doesn't. Let's not look at unsubstantiated figures, let's look at the real figures, from the real reporters of government statistics... As of December 2nd's Bureau of Labor Statistics Job Report , the numbers were thus: Nonfarm p
So a grayish blob of liquid is someone's idea of his digital representation? Do you like my avatar's t-shirt?
It is so tough to keep my son, Benjamin, focused and motivated to practice his saxophone. He recently took up the tenor sax and it's very daunting for him. Mostly because he's such a perfectionist! He feels like he should already be able to play every note without any errors. He feels like he should get the sax to play "Greensleeves" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlem
Ballad? How about "Daniel" by Elton John. Or "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald"? I broke a key clean off of my piano tonight. E above middle C. Yikes. Sublimating your anger? Rage? Frustration?
The first step is to get Rummy to resign. Ain't gonna happen, my friend. along with hearing a lot republicans who have been trashing Leiberman (since he ran as Al Gore's running mate) singing his praises. He's one of the few Dems who is unshakably behind the war.
They may indeed be our servant, but their safety MUST take precedence. There is a price we pay for keeping our leaders safe in this post-9/11 world. Everyone would love to take potshots at the current administration. If we let everybody know that Cheney was in town, the wrong person might find out. I
I got a link in my spam email today for trying out Yahoo! Avatar : And I came up with this: "YIKES! <
DICK IS DEAD! LONG LIVE THE DICK!
We had not been attacked when Clinton was President. Then the sailors who died aboard the Cole meant how much to you? Let me refresh your memory, Colonel... From Wikipedia : On October 12, 2000, USS Cole came to the harbor of Aden, Yemen for a routine fuel stop. Cole comp
That way they could be heard inside the casinos across the river. "Laughlin, baby! What happens in Laughlin... ummm, sorry... nothing happens in Laughlin."
The tragedy of September 11th caused America to do some self-examination: How did it happen? Why didn't we prevent it? How can we prevent future attacks? The 9/11 Commission issued this report on how well Congress and the Bush administration have done in protecting American lives after 9/11... From the Washington Post</
Now I know why I dont eat peas! And I sure hope you didn't eat THOSE peas, Dharma baby.
A recent article by one of our esteemed members of JU (he will remain nameless unless he chooses to identify himself) got me to thinking. Thank you for esteeming me, Doc. And how would you have known if I hadn't outed my own intentions on this very blogsite? <a href="http://singrdave.joeuser.c
singrdave, I would agree with Bush if he adopted policies that solves our problems Okay, let's examine them one at a time. On the Budget - cut the Pork <
Bush's policies are failing on all fronts E.J. Dionne Jr., Washington Post Writers Group One man's opinion; no more, no less.
Population growth required 125,000 new jobs EVERY month just to stay even. During the past three months we have NOT added the 375,000 new jobs. This month's Kiplinger's magazine quotes 2005's job creation figures at 1.8 million (150,000 per month - that's over yo
To include him had to be a hoax I disagree. To not be a registered voter (from which lists of potential jurors are drawn) would be a crass oversight. The Bush staffer who didn't register him to vote in Crawford, Texas? That person's head would roll. Especially if Bush showed up on voting day in 2000
