  1. Okay.I just added Jay Bouwmeester and Darren McCarty to my team,dropping Fleury and Oates.

    Another team in my league has Martin Brodeur (G-NJ),and is willing to trade for Cachmanek.I think I'll go for it.

    It was funny.As soon as I called up my fantasy team,Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll,Part 2" started playing on my radio.My brother was awestruck and is convinced that for whatever reasons,that that was an omen that bids well for my team. :assimilated:


  2. I think that the descendents of this person should be given the right to decide the body's fate.  I deplore what early archaeologists did to the egyptian mummies.  I think they even hacked King TUt's body apart.  I know they are just bones but it was a  human being and I think they should be shown some respect.

    I agree with you.


  3. As far as I know there is no shortage of black quarterbacks in the NFL.I can think of a half-dozen with no problem at all,and McNabb is an excellent QB.If Rush thought McNabb was overrated,he shoud have just said,"Hey,I think the guys overrated."and left it at that.

    I remember Chief Sambo.He appeared as a sketch drawing on only a single episode of Limbaugh's show,just long enough for Rush to show his audeince and crack a few very unfunny jokes,and then the drawing was put away and never seen again.I'm not one-hundred percent ready to call Rush a bigot.Maybe just terribly insensative,or my favorite,just plain ignorant.


  4. Okay.A few minutes ago,I checked out my fantasy sports teams and noticed that my hockey team has finally been drafted.Now,I am a huge baseball,basketball,and football fan.I know nothing about the NHL or hockey,despite repeated attempts by TrekkieBabe to educate me on the subject.This will be my 1st season participating in fantasy hockey.Here is my team.

     

    (starters)

    Jason Allison (C-Los Angeles)

    Mark Messier (C-New York)

    Marco Sturm (LW-San Jose)

    Dave Andreychuk (LW-Tampa Bay)

    Martin St.Louis (RW-Tampa Bay)

    Viktor Koslov (RW-Florida)

    Barret Jackman (D-St.Louis)

    Scott Niedermayer (D-New Jersey)

    Brian Leetch (D-New York Rangers)

    Darian Hatcher (D-Detroit)

     

    (goaltenders)

    Manny Legace (Detroit)

    David Aebischer (Colorado)

     

    (bench)

    Roman Cachmanek (G-Los Angeles)

    Theo Fleury (RW-Chicago)

    Steve Yzerman (C-Detroit)

    Adam Oates (C-Anaheim)

     

    For the more experienced hockey fans here,does this look like a good team?I recognize a few names like Messier and Yzerman,but not the others.Let me know if I should trade somebody and pick up somebody else.My little brother,who is an Anaheim Ducks fan says this team looks pretty good. :lol:


  5. Great.Glad to hear it.But I'm certain Nigeria's infamous Shariah(I spelled that wrong,I think)courts who judge by the laws of the Qaran(koran?),will find plenty of other innocent victims to "stone". :lol:

    This is what happens in a society when you do not have the seperation of religion and government(I don't like the term "church and state",as muslims and other religions do not attend church).I have heard heartbreaking stories about similar incidents all too many times,and in too many parts of the world.I feel everyone should feel free to follow the faith of their choice,but nobody has the right to impress their faith on anyone else.


  6. It was a toss up between the "whale probe" and V'ger.I don't believe you 21st century humans understand how close your planet is going to come to getting scragged in the future.Ultimately,I chose V'ger.Just be glad that James T. Kirk will be there to save your descendents(because,I have to tell you that Earth's protectors from the 24th century are a far sight less capable than myself and my partner,or Gary Seven and Isis.....they are more like this century's "Beavis and Butthead").Hmph!
