-i'm thankful i finally buckled and bought new headphones, so that i'm able to listen to my ipod for the first time in two months. music helps. -i'm thankful my mom offered to splurge and over-night my little red ridinghood cape to me. without her, i'd be costume-less tomorrow night. -i'm thankful m...

this thread just makes me want to smash my head up against a brick wall repeatedly. it's a swell theory. and it has no practical application whatsoever. and if you think about it, people are already trying to make voting "cool." and make people WANT to bei nformed and involved. remember th...

see, me? i'd go with the flask. i like gifts that mean something, even if they aren't flashy or expensive or even if i'll have to explain it to everyone but the recipient because no one else will get it. my favorite gift from my ex, in the three years we dated, was not any of the expensive stuff he ...

I think of the voting as a â€œprivilegeâ€ not as a â€œrightâ€. Maybe thatâ€™s where we completely disagree. For me, itâ€™s like driving a car. You have to pass a test in order to get a driving license. That way it is safer for everyone who uses the roads (compared with no test at all). Mmm, but t...

it's interesting, and supported with canon text, which i appreciate.

however, i don't believe a word of it.

i'll back up my opinion with canon when and if i summon the energy to do so.

great find, though, adam. one of the most original and interesting theories i've heard in ages.

...what would these "tests" be on? candidate's age? party? scandalous past? who administers this test? how is it graded? resticting the right to vote based on whether or not the voter in question passes a test? this idea is ridiculous. Thanks for your vote of confidence ;) It all depends ...

Narrator: You need an objective observer to pass the story along.

screw that. did i confess to being ashamed of that? cause no. real confessions, now. -i sing a lot now that henry doesn't live here anymore. i don't sing nearly as much as i ever used to, but i do sing again. this is a very good thing. but not for the reasons anyone would assume. -i put on my hallow...

I understand why you (and others) would like factual proof, however I prefer to debate "from my gut." I feel that having to pull all sorts of outside information into it would take away from the debate. I also didn't feel that factual backup was neccessary, because, when refering to the p...

Everything I say is said from my point of view, and unless I explicitly say it is fact, it should be interpreted as such, because I am often wrong. However, I will edit to point out that that is my view of American public education. ---Edit--- Actually, I don't need to edit any of them. In every ca...

i LIKE chris. i just like luke MORE.

i never liked jess. ever. i'm reserving total judgement on logan til the season plays out. i go back and forth on him.

personally, i alwasy liked dean best. but i guess that's just a pipe-dream now.

and i liked dave way better than zack (zach?) for lane.

Young Val

I don't know how to back it up. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's my perception. If you have evidence to the contrary I'll back down, but I'm sticking with it for now. i don't really care over-much at this point, but as it isn't my position, it's not my responsibility to prove or disprove it. it's all we...

Young Val

150 years ago it did.

if this is your view and you're stickin' by it, you're gonna have to back it up.

Young Val

Yes, but 150 years ago, people who had been educated in the public education system were well informed citizens, capable of voting well. Now, I'm not so sure about that.

....what?

Young Val

the roof thing was cute.

i HATE that lorelai is with christopher. i hate it.

...what would these "tests" be on? candidate's age? party? scandalous past? who administers this test? how is it graded?

resticting the right to vote based on whether or not the voter in question passes a test?

this idea is ridiculous.

in response to wigginboy, i was educated in the public school system of a moderately wealthy suburb 25 miles north of Boston, Massachusetts. leaving aside private schools which do center on a given religion and dealing mainly with public schools, i do not believe that religion of any kind ought to b...

i know this isn't saying much, but i have a pretty accute memory, and i don't ever remember being "taught" evolution in school. certainly not in high school or before. the first time i remember the subject being "taught" in any way is when it was mentioned in my college environme...

SPOILERS yes, they ended the movie as she left france. there is no exploration of her time as a prisoner, nor her husband's execution, her separation from her children, or her own death. we all know how it ends, and i found the conclusion of the movie to be emotionally satisfying. while i agree that...

i mean... at the French court. i saw Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette this afternoon. now, i'm very on-the-fence about Kirsten Dunst. sometimes i like her, sometimes i don't; it varies entirely movie to movie. and i wasn't sure about this whole 80's soundtrack/18th century mix either. but i absolute...

i know! isn't it almost seamless how those three actresses come off as one person, based on really selective cuts?

and yes, her name (the character's) is River Tam. you should watch Firefly. it's excellent.

poking around on youtube.com to get my buffy fix till netflicks arrives and stumbled on this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qdd2gOBqHsQ it's a fan-made trailer for a buffy/angel/(firefly) spin-off movie using clips from all three shows. it's really well done, in my opinion. and while it helps to ha...

Dear Bob, somehow, i feel that it's right for this post to be after Jayelle's. it's just... right, somehow.
