REPORT: Torre fired - Lou piniella in [Baseball]
1.2 billion in payroll in the past 5 years. 3 out of the 5 years they didn't make it past the first round. You can't say he's a bad manager, in fact he's a tremendous manager but I think with that kind of payroll the owner has a right to be dissapointed with those kind of results.

The thing I would bring would be...Macgyver. And yes he is a "thing." No human is that resourceful.

television ads. getting annoying?
The only commercial that really irks me-Cellflirt. For $0.50 a message you can have interactive text messaging with "hot girls" on your cellphone. So it's like having phone sex except you read it. Pathetic in a desperate sort of way.

Stupids thing youve done for money
I took an almost full box of benadryl at one time last night for 5 bucks. I think it was about 20 pills which came out to about 500mg of diphenhydramine. I don't know if this would constitute a "drug post" so I won't go into details but I'll just say last night was maybe the worst night of my life.

Favorite Literature Quotes/Excerpts
Yes, it is very repetitive. The first time I read the book it took me eight days, one of those days was just reading those 80 pages. Kind of hard to get through. I just finished the Fountainhead, and everytime I think of Howard Roark it makes me feel good :D Roarks speech at the end where he's defending himself, to me, is about 10 times better than Galt's speech. After about 20 pages of Galt's speech everything started sounding the same.

Do you bite your nails?
I can bite my toenails. You have to be very flexible around your inner thigh and groin areas.

The value of a promise.
34 posts in over 2 years. Holy snikes that's a lurker. When I say "I promise" I mean that it will now become my number one priority and I will do everything within my power to do whatever it is I said I'd do. After you break a promise or two it just gets hard to have people trust you.

Is it nessesary to be mean?
You'll notice how all of the flaming/spamming in this thread was completely unfunny, not even mildly entertaining, and in no way came close to being thought provoking. The problem we have is not the fact that people do flame, it's the fact that they don't do it right.

What is more important to you safety or freedom?
To me, these quotes are completely different and can be interpreted in completely different ways. Well, he only said one of them, but every "quote" website you go to will have it slightly different. I'm not seeing much difference between them though :? . Maybe I'm just being picky, but the phrase essential liberty to me makes a huge difference. As Barihawk said, he wouldn't mind giving up some rights that he wouldn't consider to be major, but he wouldn't give up rights that he believes to be essential. The first quote seems like a blanket statement that says no rights whatsoever, no matter what, and I find that to be unreasonable.

Is it nessesary to be mean?
Can't open debate with both sides being respectful be just as interesting? In my opinion, no. I'm not saying every single post has to be an obnoxiously mean personal attack on another poster but I believe this forum has just the right amount of flaming and rudeness to give it character. I think the abundance of pointless unfunny spam that occasionally crops up is more of a problem than flaming.

I used to think him and Lionheart_0 were girls. Now I know better-only Lionheart is.

Could you take anothre person's life?
Impersonally, with a gun or maybe even a knife-yes, I could. But up close and personal like beating a man to death with my bare hands or maybe biteing him to death, I don't know. I get a little squeamish in areas like that.

Stupids thing youve done for money
I licked the boys locker room floor from one end to the other (about 30ft I'd guess). 50 bucks and a mouth full of cooties.
