  1. Extremely simplified, but essentially true my son.
  2. So I was talking to my bro and somehow we got on the subject of becoming a Minister, he said it takes an internet connecttion and thats it, while I said it takes a while. Turns out I was wrong, and well I'm now an Ordained Atheist Minister. Seriously all I had to do was fill out a form that is less then our enlistment application. So I'm now Rev. Phil Morton I guess, and can marry people and stuff. The only catch I guess is that you have to pay $20 or so if you want to get your Letter of Good Standing which is required to actually performer minister stuff in some states.
  3. That was an interesting documentary Parker. I enjoyed it.

    War Plan Red

    So this was a real possibility, pre WW2 Americans apparently hated the UK, and actually wanted to "knock the Empire down a peg or two" After analysing it, historians and military strategists from all 3 nations conclude that the US would quickly overrun most of Canada, except for Halifax, which would have let the British reinforce Canada, or so the Canadians thought. However the British would have let Canada be overrun and conquered to preserve its greater Empire, since neither navy was capable of defeating the other, but the British couldn't fight the US on land. Crazy how History could have turned out. I honestly prefer the current arrangement as Plan Red would have been senseless slaughter.
  5. Right on. Work hard, play hard. I give two shits less about Americas so called "enemies". We have a whole cabinet full sitting in the White House sending this once great country down the shitter. What's interesting is that people have been sayings this for a long time, so we either been sliding down the shitter for hundreds of years, or people are over reacting. As for Chavez, he did some good things, and some not so good things, nobody is perfect.
  6. The second one O'Hare. I have nothing against hard work. Of course most Corps CEO's nowadays didn't get there by hard work. Another aspect of Corporate Greed is CEOs and Executives giving themselves pay raises and golden parachutes as their companies fail. Prime recent Examples, Hostess, The Banks, Automotive industry.
  7. O'Hare. I've studied Socialism, and I'm actually a Socialist. With that said Socialism is a broad term that has a lot of viewpoints and while all Communists are Socialists, not all Socialists are Communists. It is exactly like how all Catholics are Christians but not all Christians are Catholics. Now the modern Democratic Party is not a Socialist party, however it does share some Socialists Ideas, as does the Republican Party. Some of these "evil" Socialist views are Mass Literacy, Child Labor Laws, Minimum Wage, Social Security, Public Education, The eight hour workday, Workplace Safety, Food Safety Laws, and others. We are not a bunch of Evil "Commie Basturds" waiting in the "left" wing to swoop down and destroy America. I love my nation, and I'm proud to be an American, however she isn't perfect and could use some improvements. Mainly in how Corporate Greed is out of control, and how the Justice System favors the Rich.
  8. I prefer my News from America's finest News Source. ONN Story

  10. So my bits I ordered from the UK came in today. They look pretty sweet, can't wait to put them on my Guardsmen. Which just need to arrive. Should be anyday now.
  11. I do enjoy Engles brilliant geopolitical posts.
  12. We should try to get this style of typing in the the Americas. It is kind of a neat little way to type. However I wonder why they use this style of typing? It is almost a pain in the ass to make sure your text stays in a box like shape.
