Yeah, but I wasn't sure I was going to be up at that time, so I just waited until after midnight to get the date right... > BTW, aren't we supposed to sacrifice a troll or a spammer or something Easier to find them than trying to find a virgin to sacrifice... It's more fun looking for a virgin, even if you don't find one! Al >> And a tad early ;-) The solstice occurs at 12:41 on 21 Dec (UT) this >> year. Just a few more hours.

Nawh, they're more trouble than they're worth... Never understood why the camel f.ckers wanted an afterlife populated with virgins... Hell, I would want one populated with whores... Should be quite a bit more fun... >> It's more fun looking for a virgin, even if you don't find one! > >Nawh, they're more trouble than they're worth...

This reminds me of my father, when he was moving soil in our to be garden with a little Bristol Caterpillar, and just going backwards through the blossoming sunflowers, much to the "delight" of my mother who had planted them and was watching from the kitchen window. Matthias >> Yes it is all up hill - the days are getting longer! > >Yeah, I kind of hate the shorter days...

Of course, it's supposed to be 53 tomorrow, 42 on Thursday, 39 on Friday with a chance of flurries. Texas weather can suck some days. Gotta a take Toby and Ruby for a walk.

I liked this one "Both the language and history of the Second Amendment show that its subject matter was not individual rights," Henigan said, "but rather the distribution of military power in society between the states and the federal government." However, the second amendment is: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed Similarly, the 10th amendment is The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people Using the "distribution" idea, the 10th amendment applies only to states, and not individuals (the people). The Constitution seems pretty clear when addressing individual vs state vs federal rights & powers.

It has nothing to do with who controls it and everything to do with how well they fight as a group. >Similarly, the 10th amendment is >The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] >> The only working atomic bomb platforms the >> Japanese ever had were delivered via airmail.

And do you know what the phrase "the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed" means? :-) How about "being necessry to the security if a free state"? :-) Considering what the colonists just went through, to secure their freedom from an oppressive regime, they saw the need to have the people keep and bear arms as a matter of security for their freedoms - from external and internal threats. Again, my point is that the constitution is pretty clear (at least to me) when talking of state vs individual rights. I give as an example the 10th - "reserved to the states, or to the people". Hmm.....the people.....same phrase as in "the right of the people to..." :-) Dennis > >Similarly, the 10th amendment is > >The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > >> The only working atomic bomb platforms the > >> Japanese ever had were delivered via airmail. I'll second that.... the winter solstice part, not the part about you being old-fashioned. LOL Happy holidays to all and best wishes for 2005. |
