Shall the next song in the jukebox be "We Shall Overcome" or "Kumbaya?" :D

I harbor no random hatred, save only for those who would destroy our world. If you think radical islam is a good thing that should flourish and spread across the world, as is their goal, then you too have some socio-mental issues.

Can I have some fries with that personal attack?

Some of us just don't give a **** and are here for the show. I used to argue back and forth but I don't have the time or the interest. It is healthy to debate, it is unhealthy to take it personally.

NO I AM NOT

I haven't been in a church for anything other than someone elses's wedding or funeral in decades. And...Tom WTF is a Teximerican? Is that like a Madisonite?

not a personal attack, more a rebuttal of your failed attempt to demean me.

Come on. It's Txjake. Not many here take him seriously. it's like when Spdrun goes off on cars with automatic transmissions or wishes that some cop or other civil servant get killed or suffer some other painful fait because they did something he disagrees with. It is typically taken as the ravings of a lunatic and taken with a grain of salt.

I rather like the exchanges here. Lots of different points of view and a lot to be learned.

Very glad to see my old friends are still here. Where's CLK man?

MTI, I'm hoping for SYD. shine on You Crazy Diamond. Or Fruitcakes by Buffett.

JiveTurkey 03-07-2014 12:57 PM

Kuan, thank you for the compliment. I'm hopelessly attached to my vinyl.

Now now, don't let the negativity get the better of you.

I'm just going to quote myself and bump it up. Seems oddly pertinent.

We are (allegedly) like minded enthusiasts. If you have some vile filth you wish to spread about someone elses personal beliefs just keep them to yourselves. Slander and negativity will only benefit those who aspire to hold political office. I'm sure a way can be found to ratchet down the hate a few notches, yes?

Are you still driving your Grandfather's SL600 over 120 mph on public roads? Is/was doing that positive activity, or negative activity in your way of thinking?
