I voted for McCain, yet I now support Obama. His cabinet picks give the impression that he will be govern as a centrist. I don't agree with his trillion dollar stimulus package. But I didn't agree with W's banking bailout either. He has inherited a difficult position, both at home and globally...

[more] As for the idea that the center is the place to be... Take for instance secret abortions on demand for girls as young as 12. I don't want to get anywhere near that. I am radically opposed to school councilors getting into the abortion business. There is no centrist position that is...

Right wing! I believe in low taxes and smaller government. I believe we need to fortify our southern border, then sort out the illegal alien issue. I believe we have liberated Iraq, and were justified in doing so. I believe the earth was warming long before the industrial revolution. I believe...

It's probably been said, but it deserves to be said again... Pirated software is not free, it's stolen. There is a difference. Freeware and open source software is free. That is the price of it. If you download a $40 game, it is still a $40 game, it's just stolen. Software houses deserve to...

Considering I'm on death row, and I'm innocent of the crime, I think I would like to explode. I want mine to be the messiest, most nasty death possible. Serves those sons-of-b's right. I don't puke alot, so I don't know what makes for a truly nasty puke, but it has to have some milk in it I...

I don't think it's going to stop. To one extent or another I believe that it is ingrained in people. It is healthy for society to have certain prejudices. You have certain feelings regarding gangster types. What if the gangsta is working at your bank? Society demands that bank workers present a...

You want truthful? OK! I'll probably be called a bigot, but it's not the worst Ive been called. I think the politically correct world we live in is slanted against the middle aged, heterosexual, white male. I have no problem with skin color or sexual orientation but don't expect me to accept...

Earlier I stated I was happy riding a dinosaur (Win2k), well things have changed... My laptop took a leap from the table and has been declared dead. It had WinXP home but no OS media, just recovery cd's. So I got onto bittorrent and downloaded a bootleg copy of XP home. It had cracks and...

Other... I use Win2k pro because I own it. Microsoft is making it as difficult as possible to remain current with apps. Lots of the new stuff(express 2008 dev tools, silverlight, ie7) require XP or greater. I won't upgrade until I have too. My laptop has XP Home. It is stable and fast, but not...

I don't believe God created us to worship him. That would be narcissistic. I believe we were created to allow his spirit to live within us.

According to the Hitchhikers Guide the answer to life, the universe and everything is 42. According to string theory our entire reality exists in only 3-1/2 of 11 possible dimensions. There is plenty of room for God to exist. That's enough reason for me to wear clean undies.

Yes, it's true. The recorded history of mankind is just a flash in the pan compared to geological time. The planet is billions of years old. We are rather amusing creatures when it comes to our reference of what is really old or big. We think the speed of light is fast, yet on the scale of...

The US auto industry is teetering and the credit bubble has burst. The US is in a recession and they say it will get worse. Myself, I'm OK. Times are tough but my job is secure and I've recently received a 20k settlement for an auto accident. How are you affected by the current economic situation?

I want to know! I don't live my life scared of germs. I grew up playing in the dirt, and as a result I believe my immune system is better than those who live in sanitized fear. But if there is a killer flu, or new AIDS virus running around I can adjust my routine to help prevent exposure. I can...

Just a quick funny from back in the day... Bill Gates bought ten million vaccinations for impoverished children. Apparently the vaccines come bundled with internet explorer.

Winter is best! People should play like otters in the snow, slipping and sliding for the pure joy of it all. One of the great inventions of man, is the chairlift. Skis or snowboard? It doesn't matter. But you should really get good riding one board, before you try to ride two. :)

Something that aggravates me about the abortion debate is the phrase 'pro choice'. Except in the case of rape there has already been a choice made. They chose to have sex! Had they chose to keep their pants on, there would be no issue. In my mind, abortion is akin to murder, yet there is an...

I favor South Ossetia. I saw one interview with a south ossetian refugee in a russian refugee camp. He stated that the Georgian forces attacked civilians. He stated that the Georgian forces drove civilians from the streets, then threw hand grenades into basements where civilians were seeking...

Hi kllctcat, Thanks for the suggestion. I have ADD(attention deficit disorder), and truly, even my own code, seems like random nonsense much of the time. I can usually think up a solid solution to a problem, but when it comes to coding it, I spend most of my time trying to figure out what...

Okay, we've already determined that this programming bit goes beyond the scope of the SD&D forums, yet I think this post is necessary to place the previous posts into proper context. If you've read the thread and are still wondering what the heck I'm talking about this image should do a lot to...
