God is a comedian playing to an audience who is afraid to laugh - voltaire.
what you say means nothing, what you do means everything.
they may not remember what you have done, but they always remember how you made them feel.
experiance is the best teacher, unfortunately it is usually the most expensive.
if you lack the proper equipment to complete the task, do not start it.
just because you've never been in a car wreck, doesnt mean you need to be in one to know how bad it sucks.
the greater the opinion, the less the facts are known.
95% of all of the species to ever exist on this planent are now exstinct, so dont look so smug.
we used to build a premium american automobile, now we just build cars.
on a side note, why aren't we building nuclear power plants? i know some drunk russians blew one up in 1986, but with modern computer science, nuclear physics and polymers how can we not be building nuclear power plants left and right, and dont give me that harmful to the environment thing, they are currently the cleanest operating power source we have. sure the nuclear waste is a concern, but so is all of the nickel and lithium in your hybrid cars that are supposed to save the planet? and those plug in hybrids, thats a wonderful idea, lets tax and already over burdened power grid.
history admires the wise, but elevates the brave.
beware the fury of a patient man.
another side note, can someone who understands economics tell me how we can hope to compete with china for oil in the next couple of years? heres a thought, considering we export more rice,corn,and wheat than any other country in the world, why not jack the price of foodstuffs up to oil bearing countries? if they dont want to lower the price per barrel, let them eat all that sand they have. we as a country should stop being as generous and realize we have the greatest piece of land on this planet and that we need to make that, and what this land can bear work for us.
also the next person who wants to complain about oil companies and how much of a profit they make can bite my pasty white ass. the government, federal and state government could help us out by eliminating the average of 47 c gas tax on every gallon. then demand picks back up, and prices go down.
who the hell thinks we should tax our way out of a recession? oh just a bunch of idiots? good job.
i want everyone to think about how their tax dollars are spent....
now are you happy with how they are spent?
are you happy with the below average schools.
the shitty roads?
the corrupt politicians?
the under-funded colleges ?
the police that only enhance the township's revenue?
now do you want to elect someone who wants to fix the problem by taking more of your money?
im all for paying my taxes, personally i just want them go to a good cause, that has an affect on THIS country like schools, bridges, making sure firefighters and police are well equiped to do their job.
not to donate or spend money in foreign aid so that starving kids in africa can continue to live a terrible life and grow up to hate america, because we didnt do enough to help them. the europeans are the ones who fucked africa up, did the US have a colony in africa?.... why is it our job to fix the mess even the europeans wont touch?
we as americans need to change our perception of our country, we need to shift from, thinking we are the superpower, to understanding we can no longer exercise our will without excessive entanglement in the world.
also, a global economy can only hurt the wealthiest countries because greed will force business owners to do work for cheaper elsewhere.
saying someone has the entrepenurial spirit is just a fancy way of saying that person is cheep and greedy.
not that i have anything against money, but its called excess for a reason.
also, what are we supposed to when china calls in the 1.78 trillion we owe them?
on a brighter note, the supreme court affirmed our 2nd amendment rights :-D
but how far does that go? if the purpose of a well armed citizen is to keep his government in check, shouldnt i be allowed surface to air missiles and a 50 megaton thermonuclear device?
also, i cant remember the last time i heard about lindsay lohan, or paris hilton in the news, that makes me so happy. remember, its not news, its FARK - www.fark.com
i cannot wait to go to school, and i cannot wait for the hockey season to start up.
goodnight.
-that is all.
