I know I shouldn't laugh. I'm doing my best, honest. I hope it's nothing major and that you'll feel better soon mate. Next time around, leave the balloons to kids, there's a reason why they're for their amusement and not ours

Reply to Breaking News: Kerry Says He Wouldn't Have Ousted Saddam in Politics JoeUser Forums

We've been saying the same thing about Castro for decades. True, but while he's alive, the situation is more or less stable and even so, Cuba is hardly a threat these days. Neither really was Iraq, while Saddam was in power. A threat to its own citizens, that goes without saying, but I hardly believe he

Reply to Breaking News: Kerry Says He Wouldn't Have Ousted Saddam in Politics JoeUser Forums

They went in too early. Saddam is not immortal, he would have died sooner or later. WIth his death, infighting would have begun and that would've been a good time to invade, especially seeing that no WMDs were found nor a connection between Saddam and international terrorist groups (not a surprise there, Saddam was hardly interested in their endavours and vice-versa, just look at his past history for Christ's sake). Whatever the reasons for invading Ir

Reply to Hey! How did YOU get in here?!?! in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I've been a Stardock supporter since WB was still in beta, later bought the OD suite....sometime in 1998 I think, been following Brad around like the Messiah (lol) and jumped on JU as soon as I heard about it. Created an account a long time before I posted my first article though. And that's pretty much that as far as my story is concerned.

Reply to Gay Marriage Amendment in Current Events JoeUser Forums

If anti-gay people are fundamentally religious enough, wouldn't they believe that the gays will "burn in hell" anyway? What is the point of "punishing" them now? According to the Christian beliefs: They'll (gays) get theirs after they're dead. That's usually the cornerstone of my argument for legalisi

We have to maintain military presence. People somehow expect nation rebuild to occur in a year, that is simply not the case.

Reply to Islamatic muslims busted for recruiting terrorist from usa in Religion JoeUser Forums

What does it matter what his religion is? Are you trying to imply that people of certain religious beliefs (i.e. Muslims, as you've seem to have targetted them) are more likely to join and support terrorist organisations than others? In that case, throw me together with that group, because being a white, Catholic male, I'm right up there in danger of becoming one. Or have you forgotten that one of the very first terrorist organisations was the IRA, whi
