Fighting is against the rules, has nothing to do with the game, and yet somehow is an accepted part of the sport. Other sports have dealt with fighting by suspending and fining players. Hockey could do the same.
You obviously don't know a lick about hockey.

I don't like the throat-slitting link(s) though. It's in very poor taste.

God made me do it.
Sooo, what conclusion(s) am I to derive from this lil' nugget of data? That religion is bad? That God doesn't exist? That people shouldn't read the Bible because (according to your link) it does more harm than good?
Or are we just to revel in the irony of it all.

The great battle of Armageddon has already happened? The two prophets with command over the elements, smiting the earth with plagues and turning the waters into blood has already transpired? Wow! And I only slept in till 8:30 this morning!

Zachsmind: A friend was telling me about an experience that happened to him many years ago. A coworker of his was a devout Christian, who had raised the ire of some other nonbelieving coworkers around him. The day after there had been a terrible plane crash which took the lives of several hundred people, one of the nonbelievers slapped down the newspaper with the grim headline and asked angrily, "where was your God yesterday?"
The Christian replied: "God... [more]

roll truck roll: The word "Belief" is a watered-down sissy word used in conjunction with other sissy words like "marigold", "lolipop" and "meadow".
I know God lives. End of story.

Burning our food
The bottom line (and likely the truth of the matter) was way up near the top, courtesy of eriko:
Fertilizer. In particular, the energy to make it, transport it, and use it. Add in the cost of planting, working, and harvesting. Add in the transportation cost of the harvest to the conversion plant.
It is, however, a lovely way to make ADM rich. Why do you think ShrubCo is proposing it?

Saddam Hussein is Dead
What's the deal with one link posts anyway? Am I supposed to derive great pleasure from clicking multiple links just to get the gist of a story?

Henry Rollins on Net Neutrality and Freedom of Speech
A big fat yay when I heard this. Spread the word. Democracy is under attack in America by a handful of transnational media corporations and a fascist government who have no interest in the well-being of the general public or in the truth.

the n-word
Here's another N word that comedian Paul Mooney wants us to stop using.
I myself have never personally used that word in any context, ever, and I'm totally behind him on this one.

How to get a Nintnedo Wii and Sony PS3 on launch day
I've been completely removed from video games for several years (full disclosure: I was an avid gamer from the Atari days right until the PS2 launch) and I'm ready to get back in with the Nintendo Wii. My kids will love it, and I think it may rope me in too. As for the other two consoles? Boooorrring!

Also: I have bilateral tendonitis, had it for many years, and the Wii looks like the only possibility of getting back into gaming with my kids (albeit in a limited way).
Button mashing is just too painful anymore.

The Book of Job
Job is a story, a true story. It's one one my true favorite stories of the Old Testament because it teaches me to be accepting of my problems and imperfections and the imperfections of others.
