  1. Dave has rule of thumb Tourettes :lol:
  2. The united states has interests in Iraq. So we are focusing there. Iraq also posed a much more global threat then say Darfur. I am pretty damn sure we'd be in Darfur right now if they were developing nukes and setting oil fields ablaze.
  3. Just a quick FYI, sarcasm on the internet doesn't really work unless you type it properly. And even then it is hard to tell. So I stand by what I said. I think McCain will have better luck dealing with world wide affairs. Experience is definitely needed there. However, I feel that whomever is elected cannot go into their Presidency with the mindset that we will tell other countries what to do. We are in debt to a lot of outside sources, and need to respect that.
  4. For some reason people think that because the guy had a private life, we should ignore space exploration/civil rights movement/cuban missile crisis.
  5. You said you "bet" JFK was not a good president...you have no idea. "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country". He resolved the Cuban Missile crisis. Do you know what that was? JFK created the Peace Corps. "I bet" that was a good idea. He was going to pull out of Vietnam before it turned into the big mess it was. On top of that, he contained Nuclear Testing to underground areas to prevent radiation. He was also much more subtle with how he handled Iraq. Everybody focuses on the Bay of Bigs, as that was a bit of a blunder (casualty wise). A lot of what Kennedy said could not be carried out because he was assassinated, but if you look up "New Frontier", you'll find a lot of info on his tax ideas. I'm guessing you don't know about the children (black children) who were not let into an Alabama school by the state. Kennedy sent troops down and intervened, allowing them to go to school. That would be that little thing called the Civil Rights Act of 1964. He also focused on allowing more immigration from Latin America and ASIA, so you might wanna thank him. And he wanted to explore a little bit of that area in the sky called space. He was awarded Pacem in Terris after his death. If you want a good read, Profiles in Courage has a few stories about some ballsy Congressman. It might help you figure out who you bet was good or not in our country's history. Any guy who has like 30 memorials to his name probably wasn't much of a president... :arob:
  6. You know you can look him up before saying something like that...
  7. In highschool? Where it is free? The actual AP test is like 70 bucks. And you get to miss a day of school. Or just shell out 3 grand and take it at the college level.
  8. Take AP calc and AP stats if you can. They teach to the AP test and as long as you get a 4 or 5 on the test, most colleges will accept that as credit. I didn't have to take college calculus because I got a 4 on my Calc AP test and it counted toward the Calculus class my school offers.

  10. There is a reason all of those "ideas" are called theories. Nobody fucking knows. But to say some dude started going woogity woo and created life...well. I see religion as more of a story. A couple of old school intellectuals crafting morals and ethics into a belief, that spread like wildfire in a time where people were ruled by fear and needed something to guide them.
  11. You could say, "how daft and dumb do you have to be to believe that one guy created everything and now just kind of sits back and chills". I can barely recite the Lord's Prayer, and I only have that one down in case I do go to church for some odd reason. Haven't gone in 6 years. I feel if I had gone for these past 6 years I'd be a bit more close minded...
  12. Yeah but he's probably that driver. :lol:
  13. No I stated my reason for not clicking it
  14. Why on earth would anybody click that when your previous post was about gay porn.
  15. That's because they can scissor. I was looking for South Park: but I found this: But seriously, child molesters catch less flak then gay people. I don't get it. If you're straight and you know it, why would it bother you so much? Live and let be. There are two gay guys in my fraternity and we're pretty damn sure a third is a closet case. But that doesn't affect who they are as people. If the one gay guy gets too drunk, he will actually take home girls. I wouldn't be surprised if the gay community (the normal part) was also in the same boat as you Dave. By that I mean sick of the flamboyant one's that have to get attention and make this whole marriage deal bigger then it really is. Marriage isn't a binding contract from God, everybody has different beliefs. Marriage is based on love and respect, and if two people want to do it, why get in their way?

  17. Pretty interesting read! Driving with buffers was probably the most practical thing that'd I would do off of that list.
  18. I think I made one of those in the earlier Need For Speeds And yes, I'd take it. Then sell it.

  20. And how exactly did you find that picture? haha
  21. I mean I'm only paying 1500 a year...for a 19 year old driver with 2 clean years of driving I'm pretty okay with it.
