Who will make us safe from highly choreographed crashes in which no one is hurt or killed? Has George Bush done anything about this since 9/11?

My favorite quotes :   "How many times must we watch an innocent man get thrown from the hood of a speeding car only to get up unharmed and continue to run from the agents who pursue him, only to get thrown into a stack of warehouse crates? How many street grocers' carefully stacked vegetables must be scattered to the four winds by haphazard, ill-conceived car chases before we, as a society, say 'Enough'?"

"I recall a time not long ago when a bullet in the chest meant a sucking chest wound, not a quick bandage job and a climactic final confrontation with a criminal mastermind atop an unfinished skyscraper."

(after filling the FBI report about Just Plain Horse's anti-american remarks)

Guess we'll have to cross out the "Firefly" Role Playing Game of the suspect list, then.

I'd be proud to be called unamerican... if it wasn't that very pride that's gotten America into so many unnecessary scrapes in the first place. Bay of Pigs, anyone? Vietnam? The war on drugs? The war on gay marriage? Shall I go on...?

The FBI can spy on me if I can go into the White House and leaf through Dick & Bush's private papers... whatta ya say?

Hey, relax, man, was just poking some fun at those paranoids who want to keep the Internet under control. And anyway, the FBI is probably more interested on those foreigners on this board... like myself.

As Charlie Daniels said in Uneasy Rider:

"He's a friend of them long haired, hippy-type, pinko fags!
I betchya he's even got a commie flag
tacked up on the wall inside of his garage."

"He's a snake in the grass, I tell ya guys.
He may look dumb but that's just a disguise,
He's a mastermind in the ways of espionage"

"Would you believe this man has gone as far
As tearing Wallace stickers off the bumpers of cars.
And he voted for George McGovern for President."

Actually, Neville, I knew it was a joke... no offense taken. I think Trek Geezer got it pretty close to my point... labels and all. If not for All in the Family, I would have never heard the term "pinko" either.... "Treehugger"! I forgot to add Treehugger!

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
