  1. (Well, I can't vote, and I don't even think I'd vote this year if I could - at least not for the major two.) But I still think she's a little off in the head. I mean c'mon, people call Obama black, while she has five kids (one of whom is a teenage babymomma) and packs heat. Obama plays golf in Iowa. Seriously.
  2. Heh, I remember that. That was fun.
  3. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because we're human. How very narrow-minded of you. Sorry, but you won't find God with a microscope. Chuckle. Anyways. Something I truly believe in is that all religions are wrong. Period. Not because they're lying, or because they don't understand, but because they have been reduced to words. You can't do that to God. Which, I believe, connects us all and was first created when the very first creature in the universe became self-seeing. Whether us or not, I don't know. You could really call my belief in God a number of things, but love would be a good example. And thanks to this self-conscious love, I believe we literally enter God - and, thus, enter everything in the universe - when we die - existing forevermore in the magical, evolving land of this void full of and minus God. I'm sure you know of the Last Supper, correct? Well, I believe Jesus of Nazareth could constantly see into this universe of love. And at the Last Supper, He realized that we could not see into this region (as a living mortal being) as He could. So, a few scrapes of skin into the bread and a few drops of blood into the wine. His Disciples literally ate of Him. And thus, they could see as he could. They tried writing about the experience, but whether it drove them mad or whether they could not simply put it into words, I do not know. So, they could see as He could, and as only we humans can at particularly climactic moments of joy in our lives. The Disciples did not carry on Jesus' work, instead hoping that words could help teach people this. Words cannot. So, there are my beliefs in a nutshell! :

    Mark Twain would be my several generations-great-uncle. Think he was my great-grandmother's mother's father's father or something like that. I love doing these kinds of books for book reports. Too bad this year they're are biographies. At least I can do Che and whatnot. I'd do Mein Kampfe, but it'd be hard to find. Plus, that'd be hard.
  5. It'd be better if both parties broke up into smaller ones with better chances. Just to let you know, when you're criticizing someone for being ignorant in English, it's best to do that with fairly good grammar and spelling. Dunno if you just didn't feel like typing perfectly or if English isn't your primary language, but I'm-a just sayin'. Criticize someone for disagreeing with your views and categorizing them as "Americans," I'll pull grammar on your [wagon].
  6. My family owns about 1.3 cars per person (if you only count the ones that can drive, since we have one that I'll probably get in another year), we all drive twenty miles a day, we leave lots of electrical things on, we don't recycle... Oh, and we airbomb sea mammals with crude oil. FOR THE GREATER GOOD.
  7. Ha! You guys think your snow is awesome? Wait until you see the flat, empty, barren landscape of the south plains covered with a yearly max of 2 inches of snow! ...Poo.
  8. Are you deliberately pointing out the very worst Catholicism can make you feel?
  9. Yeah, you're right. But, still, any big impact on American oil companies will probably reverberate to my family through them.

    I loved Fahrenheit 451. We read it last year. Then again, my English teacher that year was so cool. Wonder how he is...
  11. Anything that affects oil companies, particularly Exxon, in major ways, I have to look into. My brother-in-law is probably getting an engineering job there, and he's worked in oil fields his whole life. Thus, if [cabbage] goes down there, him and my sister are in trouble. I do not like that.
  12. If Alex can throw a shotput into orbit, he's got some damned mad skills.

    We do that here, too, True. In Texas. What the hell.
  14. Well, it does work, even though I can't say I condone it.
  15. Haha, all those sentences combined, ending with your number two, made me laugh very hard.
  16. Yeah. That's the point of "faith". Believing in something that can't be proven.
  17. Why can't we get snow here in Texas...

    Are you sure these books are banned across the States? I have a copy of all of those. Bought at Barnes & Nobles. If it was banned, it would be because of the 1984-ish government views. I seriously don't think that any of these books are banned. Anywhere. The only place I've heard of a book being "banned" is at a library, particularly school libraries. But that isn't banned, as said.
  19. Go starwatching. It's how my parents both died my very first day of playing the game. :/
  20. Meh, I can't really complain. It's been beautiful here for the past two weeks. Highs in the 60's, lows in the 20's. Wonderful.
  21. : I don't trust Snopes. Many of the things that circulate around the internet are made by them, so they get more clicks that wonder whether or not they're true.
  22. Um. It's AWESOME? In the summer I have to face daily 105+ degrees, in one of the driest places on the planet. I love a little cold (well, a lot...). At least cold and dry is a lot less annoying. No more sandstorms either.
  23. ... AAAAAAAAAAAANYways. Now I'm pretty sure that most of my town will easily be infected by my pinkeye.
  24. Well, that's awesome. Limp gave me all his money.
