keep yr filthy keystrokes offa mah Texass.

ps: the sun never sets.

I wonder what state we'd be in if Iran where in power...

Ya think Exxon-Mobil and BP would be up for that? No, probably not.

Iran will never be in power, who gonna believe in someone (Ahmadinejad ) who looks like a crazy homeless with a special fascination with nuclear energy?!?

Imagine!

It kills me the way all the other nations rip us to shreds yet when they can't handle their problems they run to us for cash or might. We're so lousy yet
everybody seems to want to come here.

Yes we got a future cause if we don't then no one does

Yes, it's quite daft to claim that America is the root of all evil.
Remember that we're all in this together.

uhh?
The world needs America?

ladies and gentlemen, good evening, it is now time for the main event: in the red corner, weighing at 112 lbs, the sociobiologists-- in the blue corner, weighting at 113 lbs, the jesuits

the kids feel good now.

New Jersey Police Stop High School Students on School Trip



NEW YORK (WCBS 880) -- Fallout from an incident involving New Jersey police and black and Hispanic students along the New Jersey turnpike has students asking for an apology.

WCBS reporter Paul Murnane says it happened back on November 21st, when Queens high school students were coming back from a trip to Washington and were stopped by police who were looking into a 911 report of a black male with a gun.

The kids say when they were pulled over on the highway, they were forced to march backwards from their bus, cuffed, and questioned.

The kids say they felt singled out; that the police response was excessive.

Christine Molnar President of "Safe Space" which organized the trip says the kids would like an apology. "They were scared, they feel angry and now they feel good. They feel that they have had a chance to talk about what it meant and who they are and have a chance to set the record straight," said Molnar.

A state police spokesman tells Channel 5, the incident was regrettable.

the roman empire lasted more than a thousand years and the world didn't exactly come to end when it fell. The same with the British Empire, which lasted about 500 years. America has only been the dominant world power since the end of WWII, so I think the rest of the world will carry on quite nicely after it falls.

flotterz has a theory about our future chinese overlords, but i think they might collapse under the weight of their own pollution before they march over europe or cross the pacific and all of our base are belong to them.

i say the united federation of planets is next, but the klingons are going to be a bitch to deal with.

I say keep an eye on Belgium. It's been awfully quiet of late. Suspiciously so.

do not underestimate the willpower of a people that earn their living by farming imaginary gold.

there's no telling what someone like that is truly capable of.

Just sayin'.

Trust me, we'll be living on a diet of these in ten years time.

pastry tits? magical realism!

Beware of Belgiam's very own answer to it, Rene Magritte:

Why not? I'm sure the Russians would offer them a good deal. And let them get away with a lot more shit.
