"...or the abridged version thereof." The line was funny, but it was about something that wasn't. The entire article had a more tongue-in-cheek quality that had the smugness of someone who had been against the entire idea of the war from the beginning. John Halsen had just come back from Beringova; the Civil War was shaping up to be bigger than the international one that sparked it, and most of Beringova's population was either Quebecan settlers or refugees from one big progrom or another on the other side of the world. Lately that had changed; Vladivostok had, after one big surge of refugees riding anything that could float, fallen into Red hands. Beringova was bad enough without direct Red support to Russian militants in the area. Quebec would, of course, roll over on the issue. Doing otherwise would have lead Germany to sit on Britain some more for the fun of it. Next to all that, Halsen had thought the prohibition issue small potatoes -- what was a little corruption against the collapse of Western civilization? The explosion that took out the office of the local Southern Sunshine changed around his priorities a bit. He thought fast: he had exactly five hundred and fifteen stirling and a loaded pistol locked up in a wall safe. Had he been five minutes faster, he wouldn't have to worry about how to keep eating dinner next week. That he wasn't, at least, he could be thankful about. -------------------- In a word, gay. --Bob the Impaler Posts: 2367 | Registered: Friday, June 27 2003 07:00 |

A better analogy would be you living in the house your family has owned for generations, the mayor selling it to Chinese tourists for a pittance, and then calling the army on you because you refuse to move your family to a homeless shelter quickly enough. The majority of the Palestinian people had no part in Britain declaring Palestine a Zionist state, much less did they agree to and profit from it. Yes, the terrorism has made the Israeli government extremist. Claiming that the Palestinians were acting willful, that they had it coming to them, that the Israeli government is the victim here, or any other such unilateralist nonsense is not only untrue, but it's dangerous and irresponsible.

quote:I disagree. They were not given the land because they are white, they were given a homeland in reparation for the horrors carried out against them in the holocaust.[/quote]In 1949, it was more than obvious that something like the Holocaust wasn't going to happen again; genocide had been tried and hanged from the neck until dead. The zionist movement traces its roots into the late 19th century, before the majority of Jews had much more to worry about than being born in Poland. By the time the Holocaust occurred, there were already several major Jewish settlements in Palestine, for no real better reason than religion and ancient history claiming they had a right to it. The question of, 'Why Palestine?' is a perfectly valid one. The Palestinians were there for centuries, if not millenia; they had more claim to the land than a gaggle of people who were culturally, genetically, and societally European, but fervently believed that their ancient ancestors lived there once. Zionism sprung from the late romantic era, and is as stupid and dangerous an atavism as every other religious concept to come out of that era, in my opinion. You're not entitled to invade someone else's land, slaughter thousands of them, and grind them into the dirt because your religion says you are.

My family is rather average, all things considered. One dog, five cats, two point four children. How, exactly, you get point four children is a little muddy with most people; suffice it to say that one of these children is actually a large, principally fungal homonculus of whom the two others lived in perpetual fear for a few years and have since viewed with little more than occasional unease. My paternal grandfather was a flying ace in the RAF, although it is worthy of note that the title of 'ace' was awarded to him more out of pity than respect; he killed seven pelicans escaped from the Berlin Zoo after an intense bombing, and destroyed the Dutch air force in its nascent entirety in a freak interrupting-gear accident. The identity of my paternal grandmother is entirely uncertain, although we have come to believe her to be the principality of Nizhny Novgorod. My maternal grandparents were distinguished ex-carnies who, in the greatest espionage caper of the 20th century, leaked Soviet nuclear secrets to America. The Soviet Union, as well as all former Soviet repbublics with the sole exception of Kazakhstan, have hanged them in effigy, as did the People's Republic of China, although this was denounced by Taiwan in 1955 and China itself in 1984. My father and his elderly Mongolian manservant, Hu Tzao, were bandmates of current prime minister Tony Blair for a brief time in the 1970s. They called their band 'The Sex Pistols' until it was broken up over a matter of copyright infringement. My female relatives on both sides of the family are subject to fits of mass ovulation, which has been known to cause births in a cluster in August; one such organized birth was engineered in such a way to cause a butterfly to panic in the highest mountains of Chile, which, according to chaos theory, was what caused James Brown to drop his would-be successful plot to assassinate Pierre Elliot Trudeau. The unfortunate side-effect was that he instead assassinated Salvador Allende. My mother is prone to flights of seasonal lucidity, in which she claims Colonel Sanders was given aluminum testicles to replace those he lost in the Spanish-American war and blames Richard Nixon for the brief prominence of the Guomindang during the Japanese invasion of China. It was in one of these seasonal fits of lucidity in which I was born, at which point Jupiter achieved perihelion and Sunny Bono's penis suddenly and permanently assumed the exact shape and size of a Shetland terrier. It is believed that this is what caused his fatal skiing accident, not to mention the frequent accounts of beastiality. One of my paternal uncles is known to smoke ganja and engage in violent sodomy with David Gilmour, and has been considering purchasing the head of Kurt Cobain for nefarious purposes. Two of my maternal uncles have been locked in a blood-duel for the Black Antipapacy of the Ukraine since October 13, 2002; my maternal aunt is, for whatever reason, unique in our family by means of being directly related to Adolf Hitler -- by means I cannot be certain of and do not wish to divulge in any case -- and to celebrate this, she cultivates a toothbrush moustache. On my spare time, I interpret scrolls left to my double-paternal great-grandfather written in several obscure codes by a wandering gypsy. I have made quite a breakthrough, I believe, hindered only by the fact that I do not speak a solitary word of Columbian-dialect Spanish, to which the manuscript decodes. As I said, perfectly average.

quote:? The concept distresses me. quote:I think the 'no sex before marriage' movement is terrible, personally. It denies an important part of a relationship...[/quote]Postpones, not denies. It just slows the whole process down a bit, and puts different priorities first. I could see this kind of nonchalance used towards things like shared bank accounts, but sex is a hardwired thing. Some would say it's the motivating force for all human behavior at some level, and I'm inclined to agree. To extend the car analogy more than it deserves, people who worry more about flat tires than broken brakes don't come out of things too happy. quote:...can drive a wedge between non-married couples...[/quote]It shouldn't. If both parties agree to no sex before marriage, and love each other for things other than proficiency beneath the covers, why should there be a wedge? And sex isn't the only way of physically expressing love. Fair, but I'm talking about a situation in which one partner or the other doesn't want to rush into things w.r.t. marriage, but would be perfectly fine with sex beforehand. I'd consider someone who forced abstinence on someone else for 'moral' reasons to be a heel, no two ways about it. (And as for the 'she/he can always walk away if she/he doesn't like it' card, I would remind the reader as to the concept of love, on which much of western society is ostensibly built.) quote:...and often results in pants-marriages, which end once one party or another realizes that marrying into someone's pants isn't all that great.[/quote]I think many 'no sex before marriage' people feel that their religion is keeping them from sex, which is wrong; if they disagree with their religion, why should they be part of it? I believe in no sex before marriage for reasons other than that the Pope doesn't want me to, or a preacher advises against it. If all 'no sex before marriage' people felt the same way about it, this would not be a problem. I suppose not, but think about it: if you're using lack of sex as an incentive to get married, aren't you more likely to get married, even if not only for the sake of getting into bed with someone, at least before having thought *everything* through? When and if I commit to a permanent relationship, I don't want to divorce her after a few months or spend years living a lie because I married for the wrong reason, or because I didn't think everything through. Anyway, aside from that, why do you think that those who are against pre-marital sex would marry for the sex any more than thse who are experienced would? It seems to me that many divorces are caused by people marrying because their partner is good in bed; that fact obscures their vision, and they don't see their spouse clearly until later. Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free? Also, I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd really prefer to be a married father, not an unmarried one. Abstinence is the best way of preventing pregnancy. And STDs, for that matter. I doubt I'll ever get married, even if I do settle down with someone. I don't want to leap through legal hoops to break off a relationship if it doesn't work any more. The only time at which I would get married is whenever I'm absolutely sure nothing is going to go wrong with the relationship. EDIT: Logo: fundie? Not necessarily. Also, why wear a cross, or a Star of David? It's a matter of pride, I think. The money probably goes to some pro-abstinence program, too, so if you're pro-abstinence, it wouldn't be wasted money. Also, it could help to discourage people seeking a sexual partner, and might help you to meet new people who feel the same way abotu pre-marital sex. That doesn't mean I'm going to buy one, though. Bully for you I find abstinence-ed horribly irresponsible, BTW. You don't tell someone, "Never, ever do this, ever." You tell them, "This is what will happen if you do do it, this is why you shouldn't do it yet, when you feel like this you shouldn't do it, and when and if you do decide to do it, this will mitigate any damage that happens." States that provide only the former tend to have much higher rates of teen pregnancy, teen STDs, and teen AIDS than the states which principally rely on the latter.

Abstinence rings? Dear god. I think the 'no sex before marriage' movement is terrible, personally. It denies an important part of a relationship, can drive a wedge between non-married couples, and often results in pants-marriages, which end once one party or another realizes that marrying into someone's pants isn't all that great. -------------------- In a word, gay. --Bob the Impaler Posts: 2367 | Registered: Friday, June 27 2003 07:00 |

Not necessarily. The US has gone a long way towards legitimizing the PLO, which is one of the biggest obstacles toward a shared or peacefully divided state in Palestine. To be honest, I've always somewhat questioned the motives of the zionist movement (giving one people their promised land over another because they're white, in essence), and haven't seen the necessity of heavy US support for the jingoists in power. If the US demanded that Israel demarcate and recognize a sovereign Palestinian state and, in so doing, refuse to recognize the PLO as a middleman, there'd be quite a bit of peace in Israel. -------------------- In a word, gay. --Bob the Impaler Posts: 2367 | Registered: Friday, June 27 2003 07:00 |

A while ago, I got a new hard drive. 80 gb, w00ts aplenty. I installed Windows on it and used it as my primary from then on. Problem is that it didn't have any of my software configurations on it, so I ended up copying my old Windows directory into the new one. BIG MISTAKE. There was an ActiveX haywire of some sort, and installing XP over it didn't help much. So I installed a new XP on my old, now empty primary, and things, for the most part, are working pretty well. Problem is that, with quite a few games, my computer works fine for a while, and then after about 30-60 minutes (there's an exact number, I think, but I haven't bothered finding it out), it hangs without any kind of preamble or warning. I don't mean that the game hangs, I mean that my entire damn computer hangs and it has to be force-restarted. I've tried reinstalling DirectX, which hasn't changed matters. So far, the games which cause this are, but are not limited to: Fallout 2 Might and Magic 6 Warcraft 3 Since these games really only have the fact that they're all full-screen in common, I'm kinda stumped as to why they all crash. (It's not all full-screen games, either: Call to Power works just fine for hours on end, and Europa Universalis II hasn't had any problems I've noticed.) Any suggestions? EDIT/NOTE: Say 'Get a mac' and I'll punt you in the penis.

Hmm, a Paladin class?
