Of he could keep his own name and be Pope Scola.That hits the spot!

I take Scola and it's time for another Leo. Leo XIV. Scola looks like a Leo.Gee, and I would have guessed Sagittarius.

What a sad loss. So sorry, MsDaisy, and please give Murphy a lot of extra hugs.

Jumping in real quick to say that the vet just called, Flossie is out of surgery and everything went fine.Excellent! All that sweet-talking paid off.

Ms. Flossie goes into get fixed tomorrow. This evening I had "the talk" with her, I do not know whether or not you guys do "the talk" but it is required for me whenever a pet goes in for surgery.Xena got done last week, and I had the talk with her. I explained that it would be scary and a maybe a li...

If, by close, you mean "possibly within the limits of the same galaxy," I'd agree that she might possibly be showing signs of approaching. But she's on a tangental path.LOL! When I posted it, I almost added something about wondering how long it would take before it got FIFY'd up to a country ... or ...

I find it encouraging to imagine that She Who Never Learns may actually have learned something.All these years of not having standing, not being able to find one honest judge, etc., etc., she's been told repeatedly that the problem is that the courts don't have jurisdiction -- only Congress can redr...

Addiction is one of those words that is really meaningless because it has too many meanings and no one is sure what is meant by it or what it is or what to do about it. It has to do with the release of natural substances in the brain that give us a sense of pleasure or well-being. Who wants to give ...

I haven't seen anyone on this thread arguing against a "talking" filibuster and getting Eric Holder to clarify that the government doesn't have the right to use lethal force on US citizens absent an immediate threat is, in my opinion, a worthy result. I don't see Senator Paul's actions here being in...

Do our medical experts classify some drugs are "instantly addictive" for a large proportion of the population and would Methamphetamine be one such drug? I have seen evidence of recovery from addiction to heroin and cocaine...Good questions, though I should note that the point I was making had less ...

Many people believe that one must use a drug repeatedly before one can become addicted. Experimentation with speed is "not dangerous" if they do it only once or twice.For some people (and I would guess the majority, though it's just a guess), that turns out to be true. In my experience, individuals ...

I'm not totally against the drones. The FBI and other LEOs have the authority to kill terrorists in the act on US soil; police, the same. How is this different? Paul the Lesser makes it seem like the drones are all just sitting there in the sky with all of our names on them, waiting for the kill sig...

I remember singing "das deutsches Vaterland" but you're probably right. I bet the genitive is des deutsches Vaterland. Hmmm, do you use genitive after für? I really suck at definite articles.Genitive (IIRC!) would be des deutschen Vaterlandes, and it's the accusative after für. But I will happily de...

Singing, "Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit für das deutsches Vaterland...". Unfortunately, I can't put an umlaut on the u in fur. --> KEFS (Korrigierte es für Sie) I believe that vollkommen korrigiert would be "für das deutsche[] Vaterland." (Similar error in the original Producers song lyric, "Habe...

I thought part of Jeb's appeal as far as the GOP was concerned was that he had some draw from the Hispanic voters. It seems to me that he just cancelled that out with his 'no path to citizenship' stance. That's not going pull anybody in that's not already in and it might drive more away. Egad!Here's...

FWIW, Dan Arshak will be moderating some of the discussion groups at the conference, including the one on Ethics.[/break1]esil-sedi.eu/sites/default/files/ICL%20Forum%20Preliminary%20Agenda%20Jan-30-13%20.pdf]http://www.esil-sedi.eu/sites/default/f ... -13%20.pdf

I mean, the whole thing is too mucking fuch, but --- Royal Mountain Police???

Being, as Tolland taught me recently, a Collapsed Catholic you'd think I'd know more Catholic jokes.Come on, you must know the one about the Pope and Raquel Welch.

Thanks for the tips about Finney Haddock MS. Looks like they do ship their products so I will look into it.OK, good! I happen to like the entire [link]Ducktrap,http://www.ducktrap.com/index.php[/link] line (at least those varieties I've tasted). Just last night I had some of their smoked salmon on b...

It's on his tie rack next to the piano keyboard tie.LOL, close! It's next to the Mickey Mouse tie, DisneyWorld '67 (?? not quite sure on the year).

I still have my Nessie necktie that I bought there in '69.Very personal. And very narrow.Bolo?No, it's two-dimensional, but barely.

Finally I would kill for a decent portion of Finny Haddock. They have smoked everything else why can't they smoke haddock?Actually, it's pretty easy to get -- and damn good! -- here on the Maine coast. Here's one source:[/break1]harborfish.com/products/product-detail.php?id=102]http://www.harborfish...

I still believe in Nessie, UFOs and Bigfoot. I have seen and heard things at Loch Ness that I can never explain, for me it is personal.I still have my Nessie necktie that I bought there in '69.Very personal. And very narrow.

"The original documents, if I understood it right, the way they had laid it out, were copies," Casperson said...And yet I can't help thinking that Mr. Casman is yet another victim of Political Correctness.
