Ayep. Never underestimate how much Dumb Luck can contribute to a hero's success.

It's been said the most important thing to have on the battlefield is luck.

That would be the one.

Funny as hell.

Remember that FedEx ad from the Superbowl a year or so ago? Caveman sets out with a "package", ties it to the leg of a pterodactyl. Said pterodactyl immediately gets eaten by another dino. Caveman returns to boss. Caveman: Package didn't make it. Boss: Did you use FedEx? Caveman: It hasn't been inve...

If a church is burned, it could be because of Anti-chrisitianism, but also because (actually, history proves incredibly more likely) because of racism or dissent from the idealogies of the church. And some are torched by vandals or just plain crazy people, as we had here a while back. As I stated a...

Glad we can agree on some things. I wish you could see that if scientists outed the scientism advocates in their ranks for their misuse of science, religion and science would get on a great deal better. It's the scientism not the science that bothers most of the faithful, young earth creationists l...

Yah. Beltane is nothing more than a Wicca wannabe. I actually knew a guy like that--he wasn't chronically offended like Beltane seems to be, but he WAS bat-guano crazy. He claimed to be a Wiccan..then a ninja..then Persian (whatever the hell that meant--he never did explain it well). The boy should'...

It's that kind of moronic thinking that really pisses me off--"he's not wrong because he's black, he's wrong because he's religious". You aren't Christian? Fine. As long as you don't have a problem with me being Christian, then we don't have a problem. (I'm using the general you here, just to clarif...

...this cannot POSSIBLY be good.

I was adopted, AND I grew up in the California group home system after my adoptive parents divorced. I had a rotten childhood, filled with beatings and mental anguish and even rape. And guess what? I'm glad I'm HERE to remember these things that happened to me. I'm glad to be ALIVE. That wouldn't b...

-I'm against barring Mexican Immigration, illegal or otherwise -I'm Pro-Choice So you're OK with it if I break into your house, lounge around on your couch for a while and raid your fridge? America is our home. You want to live in this home, you play by our rules or you'll be shown the door. Then t...

Maybe I'm generally mistrustful of people who seem way too kind, but if I were him I'd be making tracks.

I wonder what evidence she has to offer? Zero. Just like Jack Thompson. I HATE Jack Thompson. Jack Thompson is a sensationalist windbag that's very good at getting media attention for stupid crap, but probably not so great of a lawyer (and the way he argues it's a matter of time before he's fully d...

I prefer the all-volunteer system, personally--and for purely selfish reasons I assure you. I am a craven coward. I despise violence and doubt I could ever raise a weapon to another human. I'd be a liability to any unit I'm in of any conflict except as artillery fodder. My vision is bad, my overall ...

That's not Beltane. She doesn't wear glasses. (At least I think those are glasses perched up there). Likely though cut from similar cloth--a member of the Society of the Chronically Offended. The types of people that ruin everyone else's fun. Wet blankets, killjoys, call them what you will. They fly...

I don't know what Robin Williams said to offend Catholics, but certainly Roman Catholicism takes more verbal abuse in this country than most any other Christian denomination Watch his 2002 HBO special sometime (it's out on DVD and you can find it at any decent video store). It's an absolute riot. H...

Bottom line on Affirmative Action A company has to hire the best people for the job they can reasonably get hold of. Race, gender, sexual orientation, preference of pizza toppings, none of that matters. There are only two things that really matter in a work environment. 1: Does this person work and ...

I can see why some people wouldn't like the recent spate of "Hard Onions" strips.

I kinda like them. Gives some insight into where the author is coming from--as did the discussions that came from them. (I never knew Ralph was the son of a preacher--but it explains a lot)

I guess I'm just lucky. Every time I've been to a casino I've left with more cash than I entered. (Granted it was never more than maybe $100 each visit, but that's still a net profit). The trick? 1. Stay the hell away from craps, roulette and poker. Too many variables and you rely too heavily on ran...

some of those questions on that thing are pretty loaded. The two major political parties, I think, got this way because they thought themselves invulnerable. The GOP has been in control of Congress since the mid 90s--and with a GOP president for the last six years they've pretty much run unchecked. ...

That, in my opinion, is the Purpose of Mankind. To provide God with company. And if you boil it down, the Bible really amounts to God saying "Don't Be an Asshole". That's how I've always thought of it. Don't be an asshole. Blunt, to the point, easy to understand. I can't say I disagree with anythin...
