    Sunday, Lunch in Texas

    Bump. Anyone? Anyone? Anyone?
  2. Who else would go see them? Teenage girls. The same people who go to Aaron Carter and Hillary Duff concerts. I don't think Belle is particularly "come hither," especially compared to Jasmine and Esmeralda.
  3. Not the Peacemaker... "Oh, you're real cool, but you've got to take a bullet." "After @#$%ing your wife, I'll take two."
  4. And since Steve is apparently elsewhere... Shallow Hal Gwyneth Paltrow Duets (aka, Karaoke: The Movie)
  5. Woah!?!?! I stand by what I said, but not how you applied it. If I'm not allowed to use his abuses to taint his ministry, then neither am I allowed to use his ministry to sugarcoat his abuses. Not judging goes both ways.
  6. Not only that, but if it's the record I'm thinking about, the man actually confessed unbelief... and STILL got the deliverance he sought! No, wait, that's another record. Still...
  7. I didn't consider that. Well, if I were a decent South African man, I might find it insulting. As an ugly American, I withdraw my comment. :)-->
  8. I think teenage boys would volunteer to be at the receiving end of a firing squad before they'd be caught dead buying a ticket to a Lindsay Lohan movie.
  9. I did not hear about Terminator IV. I did hear about Indiana Jones IV.
  10. Ok, I checked. Hooray for me. "It doesn't look like a bomb, it looks like an apple with lines coming out of it. What are they gonna say, 'Don't open the briefcase, it's full of fresh fruit'?"
  11. My suspicion is that there were times in his life when Wierwille really felt he had something important to offer. I can't imagine that ALL the time he spent in studying and presenting teachings on the Bible was nothing more than a ploy to make himself rich, fat and sexually gratified. Unfortunately, the rich, fat and sexually gratified was a part of his motivation, and he let it get the best of him to the extent of overshadowing anything else in his legacy, especially to the extent that he distorted doctrine to serve his wealth and lust.
  12. I'm trying to articulate it, but I find that remark insulting.
  13. Cool map. This season isn't wasting any time.
  14. WordWolf: Some of these seem somewhat familiar, but the utter goofiness of the clues, combined with sharon's hint, lead me to go with.... Yellow Submarine

    A Thread For Quitters

    Last time I tried this, it was about now that my taste buds started coming back. This time, I feel like I just took a cigarette and began chewing on it. Nasty, nasty taste in my mouth right now. Oh, and Dave, I know what you mean about the smell. I walked into my apartment last night and I thought my cats had exploded, then realized it wasn't their litter box: it was the ashtray. EWWWWWW!!!!!

    A Thread For Quitters

    Coughing like a maniac. I think it's a thank you from my body, but it feels like a nn^nn you from Altria.
  18. Can we, uhh, um,... Can we shoot for a PG rating in here? Children do read.
  19. True. But why? Because for so long, if you were black, Asian or Latina, you didn't have a serious chance of being named Miss America. You got locked out, usually at the earliest levels. How long was Miss America around before they made room for a brown woman? I'm not a fan of beauty pageants, so I'm the wrong one to speak on this subject, but now that non-white contestants have a decent shot at winning, I would have no problem dismantling all the Miss Color Pageants across the country.
  20. You mean like when baseball had separate leagues for blacks and whites? Actually, why not start a competing organization that does not discriminate against gays? Why not have an organization set up to compete with the Boy Scouts of America, and see which one wins in the free marketplace? Rather than force the Boy Scouts to become something they don't want to be, create the organization you wish the Boy Scouts could be. And let them compete.

    Wow! That's a real close call. No plans to go back anytime soon.
  22. Sorry. Yes, correct. But I presumed you knew that based on answering within 4.7 seconds of the clue's posting.
  23. I will not judge the man. I will abhor his adultery. I will abhor his abuse of women. I will abhor the way he looked at the flock as a source of money and the fulfillment of his lust. I will abhor his distortion of scripture for his personal financial gain. I will abhor his paranoia and its manifestations. But I will not judge the man.
