    Capital punishment

    Then there was Prometheus. Chained to a rock, to have his liver eaten out by ravens, only to have it grow back every day. His crime.. he gave fire back to man..

    Capital punishment

    I dunno. Doesn't capital punishment render judgement that one's existence here, for whatever reason, is useless? depending on your particular belief.. what if "this" was a death sentence, one lifetime, after another.. maybe that would be a more merciful sentence.. One gigantic shot of Demerol and God knows what..
  3. Just curious. Before Opera Buff rebuffs me for the scientific inaccuracy of on-line poles.. maybe I'm just trying to figure out how uneducated the average wayfer really was.. current innies. You may want to look around and ask the same question.. The instructions for the pole. It is (or was) you level of education during your twi experience.
  4. Silly? my name is what I am, a Ham.. why do the demographics show the majority are going to grad school. Maybe that is just where the path is leading.. try doing mathematics at 54 years old.. well, I won't "retire".. I wish I had a few more friends..
  5. why couldn't he just stick at what he is good at.. no, the students he helps will never with devoted subservience call him "da mog".. it's a weird life. one takes what one is given.. I taught four semesters of intermediate algebra. The first semester, you are plain awful. Horrible. none of the other teaching assistants ever admitted it. But all of them, were as horrible, as I was.. The last semester.. the students started calling me "professor".. the title is earned. in da way, it was assumed.. probably the same today.
  6. even if one gauges the age by their self-proclaimed beginning of what.. 1942. they are just entering puberty.. in the big scheme of things, anyway..
  7. Or one which has not yet learned diplomacy..
  8. Maybe I've out done myself here but I am humbled by the more relevant and historic saying:
  9. That is less than four, or five hundred years old. Preferably older. They have.. already demoralized, assaulted, denigrated and done worse to their very own followers.. robbed.. etc. Well then, you know exactly what to expect, don't you?
  10. I dunno. Everything is a scam.. just some more self-serving than others.. we just chose badly..

    brain games

    not bad for a math Squirrel. One of the questions was flawed. He could not appoint *additional* justices who agreed with him, until some retired, or died.. I couldn't find a right answer in any of the choices.

      and it may be, in one sense, that we have been on a bridge all along.

      Hey lady..

  14. fair question, isn't it, rozilla.. maybe that's why a whole state got it's greasespot "foot" kicked..
  15. there are all kinds of guesses.. what about. what about the agreement you made, to enjoy this existence.. surely you can remember.. ha! about the only part of the agreement for me.. I would not be able to "attend" Woodstock.. I had the privilege of asking a dear, dear friend.. what the hell are we.. well, that is the big question, isn't it..
  16. don't speak for all of us. :) the last lifetime.. maybe I shouldn't say. the last lifetime.. I was an opportunist.. now I seek to rebuild. Will it happen? There is at least one human soul which agrees with me..
  17. would you cite your sources? I would really be interested to check this out.. human animals in captivity get all kinds of s*it..
  18. I wonder if "leadership" held him up as some kind of example of the "more than abundant life.."
  19. I wonder how he is going to spin pa's death.. no, I don't wish that on anybody. But it will happen someday. If he follows suit from the doctrines of the old organization.. it will be because of some sin, or weakness, or lack, of the program participants..
  20. I wonder if the "heir" of this nonsense realizes that gramps died of self-induced debil spirit possession.. at least by gramps own definition..
  21. yet we have evidence to lay that claim at the feet of victor paul. small v and p on purpose here.
  22. Sometimes.. the weak do no want their infirmities born.. I tried, once, or more than once..
  23. Hands, across the water..
