Should we obliderate the coast of Somalia before trying to free the other 200 hostages being held by the pirates? It is my understanding that the President had to authorize the "shoot to kill" orders, before the personnel, on the scene, could do so. Is that not how the chain of command...

Wasn't Ted Stevens tried and convicted under the Bush administration, by the Bush DOJ?

I did a Google search for Ed Freeman, MOH(Medal of Honor) and it returned over 30,000 results! Thirty Thousand! Someone was paying attention when Mr. Freeman passed away on August 21, 2008, not four days ago. One of the results was a video piece, done by Brian Williams, on the NBC Nightly...

So much for the Michigan State rescue plan. They were dismantled by the Tar Heels from the opening tip-off. "I'm a Tar Heel born, I'm a Tar Heel bred. And when I die, I'll be a Tar Heel dead!". Sell your snow blowers, snow mobiles, and snow shovels and come on down to Gods' country. Mike

W was certainly a great defender of our Constitution, right?

I quit 5 years ago yesterday. prior to being diagnosed with Emphysema. Coming down the WV Tpk. smokin' the last Marlboro in the pack and, as I remember, I said out loud, 'why don't you try to quit', and I did! Regarding willpower, try that the next time you have diareah(sp)!

Hey Layout, just because you aren't paranoid, doesn't mean people aren't out to get you!

Darn MG, do you realize how hard it is for me to NOT say something? I would hold my breath, but this lung thing would make me cough too much! Mike

Let the cigarette tax increase take effect on Wednesday and then double it on Thursday!!

As a member 0f AA, for 22+ years, I. too, found it to be exremely funny. Mike

No offense taken Greg. When I quit smoking, April 1, 2004, I became a non-smoker. When I was diagnosed, with Enphysema, Nov. 2007, I became a MILITANT non-smoker. To answer your original question: I honestly don't remember how I behaved around non-smokers. Mike

The "offer" to put out your smokes with my oxyen bottle rings a little hollow. In addition to bad lungs, my knees ain't so hot either. So, if I were to extinguish your cigarette for you, and you became as angry, as I expect you would, I certainly would be unable to outrun you! So, I hope...

Mental Giant, your paragraph was relatively short and easy to follow; therefore, not a problem. As to Emphysema, which I have, 9 out of 10 cases are a direct result of smoking. The other 1% is from a genetic condition called Alpha-1 antitrypsin defciency. Whether or not smoking causes...

Hey Chi-Batman! Ever heard of paragraphs?

I scored 100%! I'm going back to bed.

You left out alcoholISM, which I have. But I haven't had a drink in a little over 22 years. I sometimes think that I still am bothered by the "ism" part".

"Come on Back to Nashville and Get Your Peterbilt" by Moe Bandy & Joe Stampley?

Detmike: Aren't you aware that "the powers that be" don't take kindly to posts that call attention to the misuse of grammar, spelling, syntax, etc. associated with the English language. My personal pet peeve? Not using paragraphs. Mike

Turtle's comments meet my definition of "tact": The ability to tell someone to go to hell and make them glad to be on their way. Mike p.s. Spud: Try to breakdown your longer posts into paragraphs it makes them easier to read and follow.

Didn't he mean that our DESCENDANTS will use us for oil? We are already waiting for our ancestors to be converted to oil! Mike
