Ha! At your most delusional, I actually find you amusing. But at best...at the very best...you could aspire to be John Paul Jones aboard the Bonhomme Richard.

Like him, you have not begun to fight.

Clearly then, you've never had a former girlfriend hit you in the head with a copy of "The Fountainhead"

You should go after her weapons supplier. That thing is dangerous.

Reverse-Hank edit to remove smiley face...because the graphic looks much worse than the text version

The game isn't who can cover the most wall space IRL with shit smears. Here, we use teeny tiny letters.* There are 26 of them.

* I won't trouble you with numbers...although we use those too.

No. Here it is shit smears. Ty says we can't get bogged down in facts.

Stop confusing me with the President. I know we're both smart, handsome and popular, but really.

It's 2006, not 1996, Ty.

If only I were better and finding and pasting images, I would do images of some choice quotes, some pictures in which he looks particularly squinty-eyed and cross-eyed, and a graphic of approval ratings here.

Hank, you are being cruel. It wasn't that he didn't like them, it was that by then he just couldn't remember them.

So SHP when do I get to meet this women?

"Detective Bart Lasiter was in his office studying the light from his one small window falling on his super burrito when the door swung open to reveal a woman whose body said you've had your last burrito for a while, whose face said angels did exist, and whose eyes said she could make you dig your own grave and lick the shovel clean."

Hell, Bart won't let me near her. All I did for him, and he won't share. Pisses me off.

Besides, don't you have some tall Nordic thing going on?

I thought Hank's crowd was still in denial. You know, Iraq is going well but the media isn't covering the good news.

you still like your version- you want everyone to just leave it be, like how you would have Israel treat Lebanon, or how you admire the way Billy handled Afghanistan? status quo?

I'd have to disagree with you on this one, bub.

Where do you stand on "The Fountainhead" versus "Babar the Elephant"?

I find "The Fountainhead" tedious and nearly incomprehensible, but you can tell from my posts that I don't like to think hard.

"Babar the Elephant" is a fine book, but (being several decades old) is in my view a bit too violent to read to very small children without editing as you go along. A 2 year old does not need to know that Mommies can be shot to death, or that people can fall over dead from eating mushrooms.

I find people who like to talk about "The Fountainhead" tedious and nearly incomprehensible, present company excluded of course.

Thought you all might be interested in this. The author isn't sympathetic to either side--particularly the Israelis--but the description of Beirut and its history is vivid, humanizing and thought-provoking.
