    I think that's the idea.

    I really want to make up a protest sign that reads, "Got Hates Sign-Waving Protesters" and crash other people's protests. I don't care what their position is.

    Phelps and his crew need to get straightened out. That's some of the most disgusting people I can think of; far worse than the gays they try to condemn by protesting at soldier funerals. I have far more respect for gays than I do those freaks.

    gays can't help what they are... those freaks of Phelps made themselves into what they are.

    Lesson # 3 in life:

    Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level, and beat you with home field advantage.

    I want to hold up a sign at a Phelps counter-protest that says "Remember Ezekiel 23:20!" I would suggest not looking up the Ezekiel verse at work.

    Phelps is slipping - his logic for protesting ComicCon almost made sense (that is, if you think comic book fandom is immoral, protest where there are a bunch of comic book fans), compared to his previous efforts at showing up with protests at the funerals of straight men from an organization that doesn't allow openly gay members - and bringing anti-gay signs. I'm another one of the "sort-of-fundementalists" who thinks that guy's a nut case.

    I prefer Rule #4: Doubletap.

    Rule #3 is actually "Seatbelts" not "Never Argue With an Idiot".

    considering Phelps and gang have become parodies of themselves.. I am not sure anybody has to do anything to discredit them

    Why the berkeley has no one killed this shiny happy person yet? Not a jury in the world would convict if you shot this berkeleyer in the head while he was protesting at a funeral. It would be easy because when they show up at funerals "rolling thunder" shows up so no noise from the gun shot. Just a thought to keep these berkeleys out of the gene pool.

    Well I guess I shoulda gone ahead and run but somehow I couldnt resist the fun of chasin em all just once around the parkin lot. I had em all out there steppin and fetchin like their heads was on fire and their asses was catchin but i figgered I better split before the cops got there. I wonder what Charlies opinion of Phelps crew might be?

    I admire you, and have great respect for you, but I have no idea what the boink that means.

    Perhaps we need to settle on some sort of list of life lessons. I figure nothing car related is in the top 7; one must master the first 6 before even being able to buy a car.

    For the sake of arguement, what would you say is #1?

    Yeah, NYG... if you haven't seen it - put in the queue. Its a pretty funny movie.

    For the record... #1 is Cardio.

    Personally, I'm trying to stay away from anything zombie associated. I'm scared enough withut getting infected with that crap. Movies can infect you, by the way.. watching The Big Lebowski took 27 points off of my roll.

    Sometimes I can now get to 3 digits..

    (Shut the F--- up, Donnie, you're out of your element.)

    I was gonna quote the Golden Rule as #1, but the nose thing is really much deeper.

    My dad always told me that rule #1 was"Don't take yourself too seriously". Is it me or is that one constantly broken? But, because the nose one is quite good, we could make this one #2.

    "Pay attention to what is going on around you" has worked pretty well for me.

    I was trying to remember what rule number Robert Heinlein's "Dont get caught" was but it was his first commandment, so I will just add this simple rule

    Your dad is pretty smart.

    I would put "Don't take yourself too serious/ly// Don't believe every thing you think.".in 4th place.

    We are smarter than we think, but dumber. It'a a diffiucult concept, but true ..Wrap your head around that, then stub your toe and fall down.

    First you have zero-tolerance policies in schools, where you send a kid home because he has an Army Man (which has a toy gun).

    Zero-tolerance policies just tell people that the world is a black-or-while place. You're with us or you're against us. You're a hardcore liberal or a staunch conservative. Make sure to read this week's newsletter so you know what you think.
