Continuation of my saga from a long time ago (spring 2001)

Thank you for a blinding glimpse of the obvious.

A hurricane just came ashore today and he didn't divert it with the power of his mind and with prayer like he said he did before during his Presidential run. Nice going, Pat. Dick.
it wasn't heading towards virginia beach.

you're assuming that God is actually a man.

of course, if God is actually a woman, that fact would probably also freak pat robertson out

I went for the cheap joke, and ended up sexist. I was going to say "God is bisexual" but oh no, crap, now I'm sexist. That'll teach me to be cute.

A gay man who informs him upon arrival that yes, there was an Adam and a Steve would probably do it.

Never understood why Pat went after the gay thing with the teletubbies. I mean really, aren't they just fantasy fodder for plushies? NTTAWWT

no. It means that the true believers need to send that much more cash to make sure Pat can make this work, and if it doesn't happen quickly, more money next month. he can't do this alone.

Nice.
No, "nice" is veiled, unexplained anger expressed obliquely. You can go sit with the CA boys.

I think that people on this board are sophisticated enough to recognize that saying "Nice" is a direct comment meaning pretty much exactly the opposite thing.

Most who were paying attention to the topic would further realize that I was saying that based on your equating a "Footloose" joke with "kike," one could equate making a joke about Pat Robertson's experiences in the afterworld is equally insensitive. I'm sure Pat Robertson takes the afterlife very seriously, and there you are, making jokes about him wetting his pants and something he regards as abhorrent to his beliefs being smack in the middle of something he regards as central to his beliefs.

I was very disappointed that the dog race track owner in Sarasota ponied up the last $1.3 million. I was wondering what the press release would have said if he had failed.

"Kill Bill" Two-Part Release

Mark your calendars:

Kill Bill has an October 10th release date.

They have divided it into two parts.

"Kill Bill" is the story, told in chapters, of the world's deadliest female assassin, who survives being shot on her wedding day and, after five years in a coma, seeks revenge on the man who tried to kill her. The film's samurai-style fight sequences were filmed largely in China and take place in everything from a nightclub to a snow-covered garden to a suburban home."

I am MJWM. I say if you go on an anon internet page, chances are you'll get insulted, and have your ideas ridiculed. but, see Kike is the big one. Jewish mom actually warn their kids "If you marry a gentile, when they get mad at you they'll still call you a kike!". so you know it a flash point.

What's eating you sister? You don't sound so "pretty". I'm guessing your a homely man-hating feminazi who can't even find satisfaction with her vibrator.

Okay, now this has got to be a sock, right? This is a joke by TM, Penske, right? Bueller? Bueller?

Frankly, I'm about as confused reading this board as I was watching Matrix Reloaded.
