    It Looks Like War: Israel - Lebanon

    Yeah, I also think that the word 'jerks' is very apt for the people on both sides and for practically everybody in the U.S. government as well as every other government. The people on the ground, of course, are the ones who will be harmed by this. The only people who stand to gain from this...

    It Looks Like War: Israel - Lebanon

    This is so stupid. Both sides are so stupid. This thread is almost certain to get out of hand at some point when people start blaming various sides. What a crappy day.

    is this an "antique" wrench?

    Peck, Stow and Wilcox is the maker. Looks about like the Agricultural Standard: http://tinyurl.com/jru2b The full catalogue, from 1923, can be found here: http://www.roseantiquetools.com/id199.html

    The American Way

    I agree with you about America. I lived in Italy for awhile and I have been a few places, and I know of no better nation. But a lot of the stuff about social mobility and "dreams coming true" seems a little on the mythologizing/nostalgic side for me. Those reservations aside, I think you are...

    Is my avatar "dodgy"? (i.e. "shady", "seedy", "questionable")

    It is Hank Williams in the jailhouse, but I am not certain of the when or the why. I recently saw a photo of Hank III copping the same shirtless pose.

    R.I.P

    Just put on an early collection of PF singles--Apples and Oranges. But man, Syd's is such a sad story. It was a bummer about Nikki Sudden too, he had just played here last year.

    No dodginess to my mind. And that dodgy character in my avatar is not me.

    An Inconvenient Truth - Moved From The Motion Picture Forum

    Are you saying that this part of Snopes is unreliable? Can you show evidence for that? Because if not, you are just blowing smoke. Find a quote where he said it, or stop repeating the lie. It is as simple as that. Snopes is just a convenient resource because I know that it generally has...

    An Inconvenient Truth - Moved From The Motion Picture Forum

    Speaking as a registered Republican who did not vote for Gore, you are completely wrong and misinformed. He never said that: http://www.snopes.com/quotes/internet.asp I really hate it when people repeat lies so often that they are taken by the gullible and the ignorant for truth.

    Confessions of a fragrance junkie (and other notes)

    Agreed, Acqua Di Parma might be my favorite too.

    Confessions of a fragrance junkie (and other notes)

    I know it has been mentioned in other threads, but 4711 is so classic and so inexpensive that there is no reason why everybody should not have it. A really nice unisex for the summer. It smells good--like citrus and a bunch of other stuff.

    Confessions of a fragrance junkie (and other notes)

    One question I would like to ask of a master perfumer is why people buy any of the scents made by Creed. They claim to use the best ingredients in the world, and they all smell bad to me. It may be my body chemistry, but I know many others who share my feelings about this esteemed line of...

    Who carries WW2 I/D cards on them?

    Yeah, I understand the reenactor thing, but Paddy's question "why do you like to have it on you?" and doc.freddy's reply both suggested that people also carry them while wearing civilian dress.

    4x4 - The Debate

    Personally the issue for me is one of intellectual honesty. Study after study has found that compared to other passenger vehicles SUVs are more dangerous to those in them as well as those around them. At this point the burden is on those saying they are safer to produce some evidence for that...

    4x4 - The Debate

    Vintage Jess, What does the U.S. automobile industry have to do with free markets? In a free market economy there would probably be no domestic auto-makers. As it stands now, the government subsidizes the american auto industry in a variety of ways including immunity from environmental laws...

    4x4 - The Debate

    Pilgrim, SUV drivers can't and don't "pay the bill" if their choice of car results in negative effects on others. For example, SUV drivers don't pay anything for the results of heightened road fatalities and emissions; instead, those costs are spread out over society in the form of air...

    Who carries WW2 I/D cards on them?

    This really got my curiosity up. Why do you do this, if I may ask? Do you show these cards to people, or do you keep them to yourselves? I am not judging you, lord knows I certainly do plenty of odd stuff myself, but the idea of carrying what is essentially a false or counterfeit identity...

    striped shirts

    I looked all over that poorly designed site and didn't find any striped t-shirts. Could you give some indication of where they are because I can't find them?
