Love is an emotional form of addiction. It can cause incredible highs and lows. When you've had it, you always want more, kicking it is painful and difficult and you are always ready to score again even if you haven't had any for years. It makes you unreasonable, emotional and causes your judgment to be shaky. You disregard advice from trusted sources like family and friends. It can cause you to make incredibly bad mistakes and take stupid risks. I'm reasonably sure that if love wasn't an ancient and indivisible part of us that it would be illegal.

I must say that having my Twilight compared to the Harry Potter universe is quite flattering but they are two very different works. The kids from Twilight are trying to survive a rapidly escalating biological and nuclear war and the swirling chaos around them. The Harry Potter kids are... well magic users. While Harry Potter is a good fit for kids, I would think that Twilight's horrific detail about the nuking of Phoenix and San Diego would cause most kids to crap their pants and have life long nightmares.

This is one of the reasons that I don't use countries other than the US as settings for my writing. I just don't know enough about them. I actually do a lot of research in writing. I just wouldn't be comfortable writing about the UK or Australia without a LOT of work.

Last night I finished up a 4 day road trip to Meridian to install new PCs for a company that has their home office there. It was an unbelievable crappy situation. I was told by management to only migrate company approved applications and some people had loads of programs that I wasn't supposed to migrate. The fatass top Data Processing guy there couldn't bother to give me a list of printers, IP addresses and the required drivers. Last night at the Jamison Inn, a hotel that caters to working people with extended stays, I met a whole lot of people who were doing basically the same thing as I was: there's no work at home so you have to go get it. I saw a special on the history channel about the dust bowl days of the thirties. The term "Dumb Okie" meant anyone from Texas to lower Minnesota who went West in search of opportunities because an extended drought ruined the heartland and turned it into a near desert. Is this a recovery? I don't think so. The people that I talked to weren't making a killing. They were just getting by. I look at the corporation that I worked for and the new migrants and see no difference in character. Except for the lazy prick that ran their data processing department. He was the in-law of the local branch manager. I doubt that he would have to energy to make it on the road. It takes drive and some aggressiveness to get the good gigs. He couldn't keep up with me. I just wonder how much worse is it going to get before it starts getting any better.

Living in the south I've seen my share of this. The churches changed their stance on divorce and many issues but still preached about the evils of the homosexual like we were responsible for everything thay went wrong. I got outed at 13 and had my ass kicked by my Dad who was told in a blunt way that his kid was a faggot and keep him away from decent kids. His volcanic temper erupted on me. They made it clear that I was either queer and homeless or what they expected me to be. That simply drove me into the closet when it came to my parents. They refused to have or acknowledge anything to do with that part of my life. Growing up I saw all sorts of garbage: kids disowned, suicides or being sent away to live with relatives. It seemed that the only adults who were cool were looking to get in your pants. Another big problem that grew out of this was substance abuse. Drug and alcohol abuse was a rite of passage for my generation. This is the generation that stumbled into the buzz saw of AIDS and there are damned few of us left. We were sitting ducks for it.

Folks, Id like to sing a song about the American Dream About me, about you About the way our American hearts beat way down in the bottom of our chests About that special feeling we get in the cockles of our hearts Maybe below the cockles, Maybe in the sub cockle area, Maybe in the liver, maybe in the kidneys, Maybe even in the colon, we dont know Im just a regular Joe, with a regular job Im your average white, suburbanite slob I like football and porno and books about war I got an average house, with a nice hardwood floor My wife and my job, my kids and my car My feet on my table, and a Cuban cigar But sometimes that just aint enough to keep a man like me interested (oh no, no way, uh uh) No I gotta go out and have fun at someone elses expense (woah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah) I drive really slow in the ultra fast lane While people behind me are going insane Im an asshole (hes an asshole) Im an asshole (hes an asshole, such an asshole) I use public toilets and I piss on the seat I walk around in the summer time saying "how about this heat?"

Katrina was such a big storm that its effects were felt from Florida to Texas and far inland. Here in Mississippi damage was so bad that some small communities on the coast were practically wiped out and the infrastructure destroyed. It took weeks to reopen the roads into parts of Mississippi and months to reestablish the power grid. The scars of that storm are easily recognized all over southern Mississippi in the form of badly scarred trees and abandoned homes and businesses that were too mauled to rebuild. Everything from the coast to Hattiesburg was badly damaged and without power and water for months. Jackson, 150 miles north of the coast, was without power for week to ten days and we had to boil water for a month. This was hard on the young and the old because in Mississippi, August and September are some of the hottest months of the years. There were many deaths among the elderly from heat related stress. This house is in a low lying area near Moss Point that can no longer get federal flood insurance. Note the FEMA markings on the house which indicate that it is empty with no bodies found. Raised houses are required even in residential areas because of new ordinances and insurance requirements.

I make my own with a thick crust and vary the toppings depending on what I have. Pepperoni, sausage, onions, green peppers, mushrooms, Jalape

Now that's a tasty burger!

I guess it would depend on how you would define complete.

I agree and know exactly what you are talking about. There is very little difference in the parties and that is the problem. We need to ask them when they run as a republican or a democrat what they really stand for. Those politicians that are looking to buy votes with taxpayer money need to go. We can't afford it and they sit on both sides of the aisle.

I'd rather live in a small town an hour away from a big town. That way you can use the amenities of the big town and leave the crack heads behind at the city limits.

The Republican party was formed in the 1850s primarily in response to the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 that opened possibility of expanding slavery to new territories. The original founders of the Republican Party were anti-slavery Whigs and Free Soil Democrats based on "Free Soil, Free Labor, Free Men" ideology and a radical vision of modernization based on higher education, railroads, banking, industry and cities. Republicans argued that free market labor was infinitely superior to slavery. The basic idea of the Republic was a rule by law in which individual liberties could not be taken from a person without due process or regardless of popular whim. Republican foreign policy was almost isolationist. They wanted nothing to do with foreign wars and saw the entanglements of treaties as a threat to peace and prosperity. This was the party of Lincoln. A noble and progressive thing that fueled the fire of American growth and commerce. So... If I may be so bold as to ask: What the f**k happened? How did the party of individual liberties become the lap dog of the religious right? How did the party synonymous with isolationism become the party of preemptive and protracted wars? How did the party of progressives that championed education become populated with religious fanatics that believe in creationism? How did the party of fiscal conservatism become the party of record setting deficits? It's a long a circuitous route that milked the Red Scare in the fifties and went south in the sixties to court racists. In the seventies the GOP was tainted by Nixon, Watergate and Vietnam so it reached out to religious leaders and embraced "family values" and Reagen in the eighties. In their whoring for votes, closeted homosexual politicians ran on the fear of AIDS and gay bashing courting the religious right and the votes of a broad coalition of Christian and Mormon denominations nation wide. The failed Bush Administration of 2000-08 (unpopular wars, economic malaise) brought the GOP crashing to earth in one of the most crushing nationwide defeats in modern history. However- the lackluster performance of the Obama Administration and the democratic parties big spending policies, big money backers and elitist leanings have soured quickly. Republicans are set to make a major comeback in the mid-terms and Obama is pushing Bush's unpopularity numbers. The big question is has the GOP learned anything? I'm not sure that they have. Running as the opposition is a hell of a lot easier than actually leading and taking the heat for making decisions. I would suggest that if they really wanted to make an impact, if they really wanted to lead the country forward, the answer in in thier past. The progressive ideas on which the republican party was founded are every bit as alive and vital today as they were in the 1850s. Probably more so. At some point in the past, we quit building America and ever since then we have gotten progressive smaller: smaller as a player on the world stage and smaller as an economy. We have gone from an industrial superpower to a fast-food service economy without enough jobs or economic where with all to drive the federal behemoth of a government that both parties have built. It is time for a radical change in direction that changes our course from just another socialist nanny state to a nation ready to meet the future. Just like the 1850s platform vision of modernization based on higher education, railroads, banking, industry and cities, we need a new agenda for the next century that casts aside the trappings of the old world and its conflicts and leverages the power of our scientific and technological base. America can be that shining city on the hill again but republicans can not do it by pandering to peoples fear and bigotry. Republicans need to rediscover the ideals that they were founded on.

Here's a start: Follow it up with this: And they are pretty much writing the note. Oops... Mustn't forget the Obligatory Butthurt Incident Report Some things are just meant to turn out badly. Like playing with an old man's Wii Some things are inevitable. Like Rule 34 Or the way that I wished that the Twilight series would end. ...and math nerds never get laid. PEACE... through superior firepower!

My feeling is that Sex is neutral in a story. It may or may not even be appropriate for the type of story. No one even hinted at figuring out who the couple was in Twilight. Given everything else that was going on, a sex scene would have been an unnecessary distraction. FYI exclusive to this thread and this thread only: the couple in Twilight was Brian Lee and Jimmy Ross. They were best friends, attended karate classes together, roomed together at Eagle Rock and would not willingly leave each others side. What? Did I have to draw you a picture?

You CAN'T. You blow it and him the f**k up, you sigh sadly and you move on. But it's a situation that is suicidal to ignore.

You've been warned. If you are a politically correct sack of shit, read on at your own risk. You'll be offended and I'll be... heartbroken. Some of you have been asking about my baby pictures. Here I yam in all of my white trash redneck glory. So where are we? After getting told that I was a liar, a zionist and an ignorant redneck who should shut the f**k up because I was stupid, I'm pretty pissed. I'm a black sheep in this politically correct nut house and I don't f**king care whether you like it or not. I think Islamists are cowardly murders that like to kill unarmed people when its easy and run the f**k away when you hunt them. Now where could I have gotten an idea like that? Watching the Munich Olympics? Hearing about the Achille Lauro? The lynching of gay teenagers in Iran might have something to do with it. Maybe it is that big f**king hole in Manhattan. We are told that there are moderate Muslims. So why don't they speak up? Because they'll be murdered in very unpleasant ways. Me- I'm betting on this guy. And a shitload of American arms and an arsenal of nuclear weapons that would make you crap your pants if you knew the half of it. Why? Because they are our only ally that doesn't shit and sneer at us. Certainly not because I'm a Christian or even religious. I own one of these. I simply don't understand people that give political cover to a bunch of foreign religious fanatics that would happily cut their infidel heads off. Our local religious fanatics are bad enough. I say hold the line. NO NEW RELIGIOUS FANATICS!

Here's my forecast and its just as good as anyone elses: *rolls dice* There will be lucky 7 hurricanes this year! Look out Carolina and Georgia. Your numbers up.

We should remake a English language version of this movie with a cast of members from GA. I suggest Jamie D and Eros in the leading roles.
