[Hidden Content]   Since there have been so many threads about feminism lately, I thought I would post this.

Fine, but don't you dare put me in the same car as Big girl.

Really? I thought everyone around here knew about them. It's a local legend.

I don't want to get too much into it, but I will say this: there's a whole lot more to the Tom Delay story he's lucky the public doesn't know.

Almost sounds like the LA riots on miniature.

  Are we talking about cigarette lighters or actual 120V plugs? Because I'm about to be outraged about unnecessary government spending.  :D

I'm just wondering when Quanell X is going to show up in Missouri.  :D

  How many of them were won by Alabama?  :D

  See, I would say that too were it not for two things. The first is a story a family member used to tell about a personal experience. The second is that weird thing I saw on my first trip out there. Like I said, it wasn't significant enough to call paranormal and there wasn't much time to try and collect information about it, but the one thing I can tell you is that there's no way it was the reflection of a vehicle.

[Hidden Content]   Round 2?

I don't have a problem with the police having the best equipment available at all, just as long as I have access to it as well.

  First off, I don't think Rick Perry has much of a chance at getting the nomination regardless of what happens with this.   That said, exactly how this affects his chances for the presidency really has yet to be determined. The DA he wanted gone was completely wasted when she was pulled over. I realize this is from a very conservative site, but here are GIFs from police cameras of her arrest:   [Hidden Content]   I don't really blame Perry for wanting her gone under these circumstances. You have to wonder how fair it is for a DA who's been caught driving under the influence while in office to be entrusted with prosecuting people for, among other things, driving under the influence. The question the courts are going to have to answer is whether he used appropriate means to push her out.   I personally don't think he did, but from a political standpoint as opposed to a legal one, that isn't really what matters. The message is what matters. Perry could take this and tell the world that he's being unfairly targeted by Democrats for trying to be a responsible leader. That may not play well with the moderates out there, but it would definitely appeal to his base. Like it or not, playing the victim is an effective political strategy under the right circumstances.

Interesting topic to post late at night.   Has anyone actually seen something out there? I've gone with friends about six times. I only saw something worth mentioning the first time, and it still wasn't significant enough to be considered "ghostly" or "paranormal." The rest of the time, it's been a gravel road with too many people around and too many sets of headlights in the distance.   The last two times I went out there, some friends and I even devised an amateur "investigation" which, not surprisingly, turned up nothing. We also ventured into the woods on the north side of FM 1293 beyond the railroad tracks trying to find something noteworthy. So, I'm curious to know if anyone else has seen anything or if this is just local legend.

Men won't ask for directions, but could point in each of the cardinal directions and get their general bearings from there under virtually any conditions.   Women don't know east from west and can't tell you which side of the landscape the sun will set on, but they'll ask for directions.   Who's smarter here?

Do we have to ruin it for everyone? Can we just ban specific posters from this part of the board?   This site has been a resource in the past. I write for the UA student newspaper, and I frequently participate in public debates. I've utilized this site to discuss topics of interest so that I could consider things from different perspectives, figure out what the "other sides" are thinking and anticipate what I might run into in the real world. On occasion, I've literally copied and pasted from my posts on this board to use things I've already written in papers and articles. It's also allowed me to refine points and have a centralized collection of sources and data. I would really hate to lose that.

Forums typically have built in censorship routines that block or change profane words. Could we add routines for terms like "teabagger," "low information voter" and so on?

I suggest both of you stop. Now.

I'm personally for a (semi-)flat tax with a small deduction for charitable donations and no other deductions at all. The more complex the tax code, the more easily it can be taken advantage of and the more corruption sets in. It's easier to hold people accountable when the laws are simple.

  Finally! Validation!  :D

    How much less they pay their minority staffers? You realize the GOP's last chairman was black, right?

  I don't know about DeQueen, but Memorial wasn't designed well as I understand it. To make a long story short, too many offices, not enough classrooms. If the're doing anything at Memorial, I would imagine it would be correcting that problem.

  If you have a set number of people you would like to debate, then do what I do and only respond to their posts. Instead, you're just egging it on with those sarcastic remarks.   I want you to go on your profile and click the link to all of your posts. Look at the last fifty or so, and then ask yourself who you're responding to in those posts. If you really only want to have a debate with the prescribed list you've given above, you sure aren't acting like it.

  I already told you how to end this. You won't stop perpetuating the cycle. You're every bit as much to blame here as they are.

  You know, it's hard for me to take your "commitment" to "real discussion" as the actual reason behind your constant trolling when you've completely ignored legitimate responses to your posts and questions about your premise while making posts like those above.

Just how are we talking about taxing them? Extra income taxes?
