The armor-plated door that guards the LGF registration vault has swung open. If you can make it through the maze of disclaimers and conditions and supply a valid email address, now’s your chance.
A cadre of highly brainwashed monitor lizards awaits. New hatchlings are scrutinized.
UPDATE at 7/24/08 6:56:18 pm:
Now closed with 72 hatchlings.

And I have turn the corner the other way. Most of my reading in the past has been scientific, history etc. But the last year I've gotten hooked on some of these "screenplays in the form of a novel," quick 500 page reads. (my description)
I really enjoyed the Simon L. Green "Nightside" series.

Were are you getting "cool" air?
Normally in Ottawa at this time of the year we've highs in the 90s loaded with humidity you can carve with a knife but due to Gore-bull warming, we've had one of the coolest summers on the books. I'm really disappointed because I love lots of heat/humidty (who else would visit Texas at the end of July but a finally defrosted Canucksicle?) and this summer is a write-off. Because I've been really burned-out at work I'll take the cooler weather blessing anyway.

The appeal was not without effect. The keeper of the gate slid
down from the cedar block, and, laying his hand upon his beard,
said, respectfully, "Rabbi, I cannot tell you when this door first
opened in welcome to the traveller, but it was more than a thousand
years ago; and in all that time there is no known instance of a good
man turned away, save when there was no room to rest him in. If it has
been so with the stranger, just cause must the steward have who says
no to one of the line of David. Wherefore, I salute you again; and, if
you care to go with me, I will show you that there is not a
lodging-place left in the house; neither in the chambers, nor in the
lewens, nor in the court- not even on the roof. May I ask when you

re: #221 ggt
yes, that is one. There was another, where the author was describing the interior of the kahn (lintels and lewens). So, I got the idea that it described some architechtural feature. As lintels are horizontal, I thought maybe it was what the lintel's were supporting.
D@amn, you are good.
Since he's referencing a rest place, it would need to be a place where a man could lie. There are lots of people named Lewen and Lewens, but I am not finding a definition.

Don't buy into that muslim dodge about Barry O. That is just a decoy. Every time that gets brought up whoever does so gets their head chopped off by the media. It really is a brilliant ploy to smoke out the opposition and paint them as racists or haters or whatever. In the muslim faith (so I am told) a child has to reach a certain age and make the profession of faith to be considered irrevocably muslim. This is really all beside the point anyway. The man as much as recited the communist manifesto in Berlin today, THAT is something to be worried about.

I don't really think there's any way to take apart Iran's nuclear program between now and the election. (You assume Obama? Ah, well. I sort of do too.)

Speaking about baseball - did anyone hear the story about Manny Ramirez in Seattle? He was leaving the stadium after the game and crossed in the middle of the street to avoid the crowd. Officer sees him, asks for his ID, tells him to go back and cross the street at the light. The officer starts up with him that there is a $500 fine and he could go to jail for disobeying a police officer.
This is so typical Seattle. I've been yelled at for crossing in the middle of the street when there was no traffic. In fact people say they can tell someone from Seattle as opposed to elsewhere. The people from elsewhere will cross the street against a red when they can. A person from Seattle will stand at the corner in the middle of night waiting for the light to change even if there is no traffic in a 5 mile radius.

You may be right Cognito. It does seem to me that the inexorable grind on international relations and the global economy cries out for resolution. Something is sure to break the status quo with Iran. I'm trying to think of an historical precedent where these serious tensions were not released in violence aside from the Cuban missile crisis, and even that may have been ultimately defused in Vietnam?
And by the way, I do not for a moment think that any bombing would be "willy-nilly".

Sorry I should'a said "male child" as you are well aware female children aren't true human beings in this society. Less than donkeys, more than dogs I believe the saying goes. As to the age, They circumcise males at the age of 13, without benefit of anesthetic of course (be a man!) and that I believe is part of the same ceremony where the youth proclaims his allegiance to Allah. (Swear! or we cut the rest of it off!)

I once got into a discussion with a guy and I said it was completely crazy that they are so nuts about jaywalking here. He said that I could get hurt jaywalking. I told him that I wasn't actually walking into traffic. I have eyes and they are in fact connected to my brain and I knew how to avoid getting hit by cars. What a stupid conversation that was.
I was walking in a pedestrian crossing with the light near Times Square when I heard screeching tires. Some instinct made me dive for the curb. As I landed in a heap on the curb, I heard a tremendous crash right where I had been standing. Two mini vans were demolished. I never had any such thing happen while jaywalking.

re: #296 Killgore Trout
Don't underestimate the Israelis. They know where things are and how to take them out. Although Olmert is very weak I strongly suspect they''ll do it before the election, there's no guarantee President Obama will cooperate with logistical support. A series of tactical strikes could safely and easily eliminate the Iranian threat.
You have a very high estimation of the Israeli ability to "eliminate".... may I suggest that "delay" might be more likely? Unlike the single reactor that Iraq had, Iran's current nuclear program has many compenents - research reactor (how many?) and enrichment facilities (how many?), and perhaps a weapon (bomb design) program located among a disperse scientific/engineering establishment.
On whether a strike would cause the population to coalesce around the current regime leaders.... I am uncertain. I've posted at LGF various links to news items indicating the Iranian populace is getting ripe for a counter-revolution of some sort (against the increasingly oppressive enactment of Islamic-inspired laws), yet I don't know if any action by Israel (or the US) would cause these people to act on their discontent, or to fall in line behind the current leaders in whatever military retaliation they might take.

re: #325 Cognito
No, I don't think it would be willy-nilly either -- which is why I seriously doubt our nation would link such an act to anything as ephemeral as a Presidential election. Maybe I'm wrong on that.
I think we'll go back-and-forth with Iran until the final moment truly does arrive -- when our sluggish European allies, such as they are, must recognize the problem -- and then we'll dismantle the place with a combination of political and military levers.
I hope, anyway.
I pretty much agree with you, however the timeline is not likely to be political assuming there are adults making decisions. It will happen when it must whether the Euros are on board or not - most likely not. We can only hope we know just where the brink is and that can only be judged through intelligence gathering. This leaves me cold since errors now only favor the Iranians. It will take someone with guts to do what needs doing - American, Israeli, whatever.

I was reported over a year ago (I think) by none other than the National Enquirer and got a little play in the LA Times before being denied by Edwards. Then apparently the Enquirer stalked Edwards and caught him more or less red-handed. It is the Enquirer, so I must remain skeptical, but the left seems to be conceding it as an inevitable truth to some extent, which is something since it is one of their Gods we are talking about here.

re: #226 The Shadow Do
Oh my, oh my. You do have a story to tell. Share?
/old guy who once campaigned for "Clean Gene"
I dunno. I guess I just got stupid for a while. I was exploring liberal Christianity at the time, and that moved me a bit to the left.
Another part was, I felt the world had changed drastically with the fall of the Soviet Union and I didn't think Bush I was prepared to grasp the opportunity. I really felt Clinton might do a better job. And then, Rush Limbaugh burst onto the scene and frankly, he turned me off. I didn't think Republicans needed a guy like that to make their case.
With the peace (yeah, I know there was the Balkans conflict, but no American pilots or troops got killed) and prosperity of the Clinton years I found it hard to criticize the guy, even though I didn't agree with everything he did. However, I distinctly remember being very concerned during those years that we were simply not doing enough to secure the peace after the fall of the Soviet Union. Too much was being allowed to fester.
Even so I still voted for Gore, but accepted Bush II as my President. I was impressed by his poise and actions following 9/11, including the routing of the Taliban in Afghanistan, but after the increasing violence that followed the initial success of the Iraq campaign I began to wonder if it hadn't been a mistake. I was excited by Dean's campaign, guess I got swept up in the enthusiasm, but the glow wore off after a bit and I lost interest. When I went to the polls I almost flipped a coin to decide who I'd vote for. Finally went "meh" and punched Kerry.
I spent a lot of time on Internet Infidels, a primary atheist/agnostic bbs, and although I enjoyed many of the forums, I got increasingly disgusted with the anti-American rhetoric in the political forum (and the gratuitious BDS comments in forums unrelated to politics). I complained about this several times. Then I saw a post referring to LGF and calling it a "right wing hate site." When I visited and actually checked it out I saw it was anything but, and after reading the posts and the links over a period of time the scales began to fall from my eyes. I realized there was so much going on that I hadn't known about. I visited Internet Infidels less and less and when I saw a Troofer thread on there, that was the last straw. I haven't been on that bbs for a long time.
And the Dan Rather national guard memo thing really put me over the top. Being from Missouri, I say "Show me," and Charles sure SHOWED ME! Cue the throbbin' memo! I was astonished at the naked arrogance and bias of the media, and it's only gotten worse...much worse. As have the Democrats. As far as I'm concerned, with the exception of Joe Lieberman and maybe one or two others, and a very few members of the media, they are all a bunch of filthy traitors. One thing I NEVER stopped doing while I was voting Democrat was loving my country and appreciating the preciousness of freedom and democracy, as well as the magical results of the confluence of political, intellectual, spiritual, and economic liberty. The vast majority of Democrats these days clearly do not appreciate these things.

We all know how well the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) works -- right?
Well here's one that will really drive you nuts: [Link: news.yahoo.com...]
UNITED NATIONS - A Swiss-led, five-nation panel proposed Thursday that the United Nations assert itself as leader of a global fight against terrorism and establish a new agency or program to coordinate that effort. (ha, ha)
It also recommended that the U.N. assist counter terrorism officials from individual nations in promoting "a human rights-based approach to counter terrorism" that disdains torture and preserves prisoners' rights. (ah, your joking)
"It's an attempt maybe to shift or, should I say, to rebalance the focus away from the war on terror to a more comprehensive way in dealing with terrorism," Swiss Ambassador Peter Maurer told The Associated Press. (Obama will just love this)
"There is a need to deepen interagency cooperation and cooperation, both at the national and international level, and this should not be limited to traditional counter terrorism actors, but also include human rights, development, health and social services," he said. "We continue to advocate for the creation of a body that unites all current U.N. counterrorism efforts under one roof, and gives it a clear mandate and direction." (Yeah, lets give OBL free healthcare for his kidney disease)
Only a idea like this could come from the UN.

But what do we do if they poke a few gaping holes into the Enterprise or the Ronald Reagan? start carpet bombing the civillian population? we can destroy/degrade their military and all they have to do is have a nuke in a container ship on a scud B and it's bye bye NYC or DC. do we trade capitols with a bunch of goatherders?
I want them to be stopped, I just don't see how this plays out without us getting hurt.

I hate to say this and I mean no offense, but I've been thinking about why this is lately- and the only reason I could come up with is that so many humans are raised to view God as a human, so idol worshiping a human seems like a natural next step.

I might be wrong but I think the Iranian threat is much easier to deal with than most people think.
So after these 'few short hours' the threat will go away and we can all return to Major League Baseball? Who handles the retaliation? I'll tell you: American infantry in Iraq.
I hope you don't misunderstand me. I want a democratic Iran at peace with itself and it's neighbors. I do not believe an Israeli air raid will help achieve this goal.
The only military solution to Iran is regime change and victory. Anything less exposes American troops to unacceptable Terms of Engagement.

The rising cost of food means their money gets them about a third fewer bags of groceries — $100 used to buy about 12 bags of groceries, but now it's more like seven or eight. So they cut back on expensive items like meat, and they don't buy extras like ice cream anymore. Instead, they eat a lot of starches like potatoes and noodles.

Well, I'm tired tonight, and probably am not making my points plain. We are in one helluva bind here. If the Israelis attack, they are as much as dragging us into a real-live shooting war with Iran, and maybe a few other ME countries. Are we in any way ready to take them on? Sure we have this huge military. We can rain destruction down on anyone we choose. Our pols don't have the guts. Our media is made up of traitorous dogs who would swing from the lamp posts of any other country in the world. Most of our country is fat, dumb and happy and ready to watch the next football season and hope for another nipple-slip from some 'C' list celebrity. WAR is about WILL and although there are many hearts stalwart and true in this country, they aren't empowered to act. I won't even say they aren't the majority, they just don't have a chance. It will take another 911 to rouse the giant again, after 7 years of the media-sirens cooing words of sleep in his ear.

re: #419 Cartman
I'm glad Rush will say what most others are afraid to utter. He's been a consistent, vocal opponent of the madness that is political correctness in this country. God bless ya, Rush.
Rush had an impact on my political awakening also, but not quite in the way most would surmise.
I was in college when he started making the scene big time (especially his TV show) and everyone around me (students, friends, co-workers) would rail on and on about the right wing bigot spouting horrible, ridiculous things, and how could anyone ever take such a buffoon seriously, blah, blah, blah. Having no idea who the man actually was, I thought I'd tune in one night just to see what all the fuss was about. And after watching a couple programs, I still failed to see what all the fuss was about. To me he was just an outspoken commentator who many uttered things with which I found myself in agreement, and other things with which I disagreed. no big deal to me, so I couldn't understand the hissy fits he caused in those around me.
Then it struck me -- the reason he was causing such an uproar in my cohorts was because he dared do the unthinkable: present a critical viewpoint of politics and pop culture from the Right. To them, such viewpoints were completely nonexistent.
Later on I caught his radio show more frequently, and still find myself both agreeing and disagreeing with his various opinions when I happen to tune in. But I'm perhaps most grateful for his success for the opportunity it provided in paving the way for a bevy of many more (and often more insightful, to be honest) conservative radio hosts.

Carbs - particularly potatoes - are way cheap. And very filling.
However, if they spent the same amount of money on fruit and veg, with a little chicken, they'd do themselves a massive favor. They can also use eggs and cheese to fill in the corners.

re: #446 StinkHammer
Rush had an impact on my political awakening also, but not quite in the way most would surmise.
I was in college when he started making the scene big time (especially his TV show) and everyone around me (students, friends, co-workers) would rail on and on about the right wing bigot spouting horrible, ridiculous things, and how could anyone ever take such a buffoon seriously, blah, blah, blah. Having no idea who the man actually was, I thought I'd tune in one night just to see what all the fuss was about. And after watching a couple programs, I still failed to see what all the fuss was about. To me he was just an outspoken commentator who many uttered things with which I found myself in agreement, and other things with which I disagreed. no big deal to me, so I couldn't understand the hissy fits he caused in those around me.
Then it struck me -- the reason he was causing such an uproar in my cohorts was because he dared do the unthinkable: present a critical viewpoint of politics and pop culture from the Right. To them, such viewpoints were completely nonexistent.
Later on I caught his radio show more frequently, and still find myself both agreeing and disagreeing with his various opinions when I happen to tune in. But I'm perhaps most grateful for his success for the opportunity it provided in paving the way for a bevy of many more (and often more insightful, to be honest) conservative radio hosts.
Good point, but simply put, to us conservatives liberals are just plain wrong, because liberalism is based upon emotion, not reality. It doesn't matter to them that they're wrong, it's that they meant well.
But to liberals, we're evil. It's that simple.

Not so much "easy", as fun. I don't think I ever enjoyed myself as much as when I was running myself ragged in college.

How do I get an avatar? Any help would be appreciated. I mean, how do I upload it?
I got a nice one I can sell ya, barely used, few miles, like new, dirt cheap at $2000. A/C not included.
/on the top left, near the "Logged In" thing, click on "My Account", you should be able to figure it out from there. You wont see the avatar until you refresh the page.

Find image on internets or hard drive (under 32K). "save picture as" to desktop. Click your football, select "manage my account" and log in. The first thing you'll see is "icon". Browse your desktop for the image (.gif or .jpg) and upload it. Check the box to show personal icons.
/remember to save changes

I took aikido when that was the way my life was. It was three hours per week when I actually felt I was in some kind of control.
I haven't been doing martial arts training for about 3 years now. I think at some point I'll check out Krav Maga.

re: #630 hermeneutics
The funniest thing is, I'm not that young, I burnt out in my mid 20's, because I put myself through community college working full-time and going to school part-time. I got my Associate's at 26 and took two years off and hid in retail..(also had a terrible nasty bad no good break up from a 6 year relationship)..finally I sobered up and went back to college to finish what I started. Life is funny, you have to have a sense of humor to get through it sometimes.

re: #397 sojerofgod
But what do we do if they poke a few gaping holes into the Enterprise or the Ronald Reagan? start carpet bombing the civillian population? we can destroy/degrade their military and all they have to do is have a nuke in a container ship on a scud B and it's bye bye NYC or DC. do we trade capitols with a bunch of goatherders?
I want them to be stopped, I just don't see how this plays out without us getting hurt.
This is why we have to prevent them from getting nukes.
And it is better their civilians get hurt than ours.
If they stopped trying to develop nuclear weapons, we wouldn't have to do anything, but they are actively working on nuclear weapons, and threatening us and Israel.

The UN is clearly attempting to create nuclear Muslim countries. The votes are there. Muslims have infiltrated the entire scheme. China, Europe, Russia don't get it. Why? First they want America destroyed economically and militarily. China even envisions colonizing America. Pipe dreams. Secondly their intelligence and business people have been bought off by the Saudis who have badly miscalculated on Iran ( and Iraq).
It is a historical fallacy to believe that these countries are diplomatically superior to the USA. No regions have ever blundered more.

It's kind of fun... Back when I wanted to register I followed the site for several months without any door openings except one which happened when I was asleep. I then searched for the announcement in the archives and found that it usually happened at night for me, so I whipped up a small script that pulled the front page of the site each minute and searched for the "Register (closed)" phrase - whenever it didn't find it, I received a SMS/text message. Two weeks later it woke me at 2:30am and 5 mins later I was a new hatchling... ;)

re: #419 Cartman
Totally disagree. I'm glad Rush will say what most others are afraid to utter. He's been a consistent, vocal opponent of the madness that is political correctness in this country. God bless ya, Rush.
I don't think saying "Did you know there's a White House dog?" then showing a picture of Chelsea Clinton, and then lying and saying it was a mistake, displays much class.
And Rush has said some really stupid and ignorant things over the years. Conservatives/Republicans deserve a better spokesman. You can be a "consistent, vocal opponent" of political correctness without being crass idiot.
