Ahh we got a MTech Huskie among us! Even though we smoked you guys at football this year, it's all good :) Essentially no one in NASA is saying there was life on Mars. They are just admitting that having water on the planet once is just the first step toward understanding what happened in...

Just to be curious, I'm wondering how many of you check up on what's going on in the world at least weekly through an objective news source. I get Newsweek every week, and I'm signed up to the NYTimes online. When I say objective, to avoid fruitless debate, I'm not referring to publications...

Nonsense...you are a part of Michigan! You're just like that moonshine drinking uncle who lives alone in the woods...:) But honestly, to anyone who ever questions the wisdom of Michiganders, point to that arcane section of American history known as the Toledo War, and say, thanks Ohio for the...

Feral this goes against all of what I've ever known. Are you sure you didn't see a badger? Or perhaps a woodchuck? Having shot at (and missed) the woodchuck that had taken up residence in my back yard, I can assure you that they are all very nasty animals, regardless of name.

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040225/ap_on_re_us/wolverine_sighting_2 All I can say about this is...wow. I went all through school being told that the wolverine probably never even existed in the state at all, but now there is a sighting in the thumb (where Ubly is)...

People who attended school beyond the 6th grade actually believe that the Earth is 6000 years old? I've only met one person who's like that...and I'm glad I left her and her crazy fundamentalist church behind me.

I can't foresee anytime soon the Deep South exactly being havens for gay marriages. This isn't really a shock to me, as the bastion of American conservatism is always the last to change to progressive policies (segregation, women's suffrage, etc).

The Patriot Act - destroying America so that we may be free.

In all fairness, the 'Maternity Ward' show on TLC blurs out the woman's genitalia, and usually just shows the baby being born. On an interesting sidebar, seeing a child being born makes me come close to fainting...never going to watch a live birth or else I'll end up in ER too. Maybe so many...

What I meant was that as soon as we eradicated some of the planet's deadliest diseases (smallpox, to some extent malaria, polio), new ones pop up in their place (AIDS, Ebola, all these weird flu strains in Asia). I'd bet thet house that as soon as we find a cure for these diseases, new...

Even though they fought against us, I've always liked the little Japanese Zeroes...thought they always looked pretty cool, even if they were sort of inferior to the US planes.

Ok I realize this is going to get a lot of flack...but does anyone else here believe that God (or in the view of another religion, Mother Nature/whatever you want to believe) is putting epidemics (HIV, Ebola, all the weird strains of flu) to help curb our population? I mean it seems as we keep...

Yeah because that Democratic bastion CNN didn't reply the Dean concession speech twelve times per hour for a week straight, knocking out the candidate almost singlehandily. CNN is the most objective of all the major news channels, but even they are definately not a 'liberal' station by any...

I'm not the type of person who prays a lot, so I need all your help and prayers. I found out that my girlfriend of a year kissed another guy, so I am asking for your help in overcoming the rage I am feeling. I'm also praying that I don't do anything stupid to the guy this weekend while home...

These overt religious institutions are fine, but you have to take some of what they will teach with a grain of salt, especially in areas that may contradict the Bible (geology, biology, history, etc.) Personally I'd rather attend a Christian-lite college, ala Georgetown (which was my dream...

Clothing is something invented to keep modesty...or so they thought. And it works well in the sub zero temps I've faced for going on 4 weeks. In the words of Stewie Griffin, "I'm freezing my nips off over here." Anyone wanting to be nude in a resort should be. All I hope is that they don't...

I believe that Jackson shouldn't be faulted for having slaves, since so many of the early presidents have. While nearly everyone today finds slavery morally wrong on all accounts, a Southerner (and many Northerners) in the 19th century would find nothing wrong with it. I did forget about the...

Some people want this... http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2004/01/19/EDG644BTUO1.DTL What are all your opinions on this? Personally, I feel that while King represents the moral fiber that our country should have, and often is lacking, I have issues over whether we should adapt...

Whats the problem with having more then one wife? If someone can financially support 5 wives and 30 or so kids, then whats the big deal? I guess my anger would prevent this from happening...or I would be in jail for murder, but seriously, these people who want to marry should...and I'm not...

Ahh not everyone may have gotten this reference. Here is the transcript from the South Park episode it appeared in. Sorry that its off topic and I have no real life... Ladies and gentlemen of the supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider: this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a...
