  1. I voted yes. Kevin and previous posters have covered the subject well. You could argue that responsibility and culpability are not the same thing, culpability being a legal concept. One example: In some jurisdictions, parents may be held legally responsible for the criminal conduct of under aged children even though the parents did nothing to promote the conduct. The reasoning is that the parents had a responsibility to properly supervise the children.
  2. Me too. Haven't been to Nifty in a couple of years. I also like Ron, the only writer at www.themustardjar.com
  3. Go for it, Robbie.
  4. You may be interested in Dick Morris' article about Obama's flip-flopping. http://www.dickmorris.com/blog/2008/07/16/...-tied/#more-378
  5. Somehow, I don't think you will have any problem telling your sister. Good luck!
  6. That raises an interesting question: Do gays have a better driving record as a group than do straights?
  7. I really don't think that is what he meant. I do understand it is tongue in cheek.

    When the time comes....

    Downplaying your qualifications is a slippery slope. What employers want in a soft job market is to save money...you may or may not be overqualified; they just want to pay you less than you are worth. You get hired, then you find yourself doing a higher level job than what you are getting paid for. That has long term consequences; years later you are a manger being paid less than you should be. Voice of experience here. Be careful. Do what it takes to get the job, but be ready to jump when economic conditions improve. You are young enough to pull it off. Good luck!
  9. Hey now! I detect a little cynicism. Tennessee is a great place; don't lump us in with North Korea. All tourists are welcome here. You should keep your clothes on in public, but otherwise...a big howdy y'all.
  10. Bravo! Everyone is happy.
  11. E-mail and IM are the new pen and paper. I doubt many new penpal relationships depend on the postal services.
  12. I know a Montreal family that went to Myrtle Beach every winter.
  13. I suspect gay tourists are actually welcome in South Carolina by businesses that cater to tourists.
  14. I agree. Take a break. Just don't pull a Dom Luka on us.
  15. Hooray! Gay guys can be heroes, too. Great Story, CJ. In honor of your accomplishment, our dinner tonight included a salad with goat cheese. Looking forward to Changing Lanes.
  16. It's amazing that we got 70 posts on the topic of "?" while waiting for the epilogue which is finally here.
  17. C James has released the Epilogue to Let the Music Play. It appears CJ has had enough of the "?" business.
  18. Today is Friday in some parts of the world. What a choice! We can blame Shadowgod and get the epilogue sooner or we can maintain our integrity and wait.
  19. I never liked Microsoft.
  20. True.
  21. ? = ?. Caution...think before arguing with this equation.
  22. I'm beginning to regret having started this discussion. How can such a little thing (?) get all balled up in this numerology stuff?
