5 days until season 6! Make your predictions! (24)

Happy Fathers Day to all the players with children (hope you’ve had the chance to play A&A with them).

Spent five hours playing A&A this Fathers Day with one son and the other son who is living the dream in Colorado sent me this drawing.  He wishes he was here playing as well.  It’s been great to share these games with them over the years and in the years to come.

@Canuck12:

As offensive as the costume may be, it’s actually pretty clever. And well done…

Offensive LOL?  Really? ;)

I hope every would-be suicide bomber, or family member of one of these clowns is deeply offended.  Better file a human rights complaint!

lol

This is basically entirely to Cromwell_Dude

Cromwell_Dude, I was baptised Anglican but take the Bill Maher approach to religion currently so I am not backing any religion against any religion.

I note that you repeatedly used the spelling Moslem.  It tells me you have rather biased opinion and are looking for facts to support your view, perhaps I am wrong.

Why Do People Say Muslim Now Instead of Moslem?
http://hnn.us/articles/524.htm

From this I quote

A Muslim in Arabic means"one who gives himself to God," and is by definition, someone who adheres to Islam. By contrast, a Moslem in Arabic means"one who is evil and unjust" when the word is pronounced, as it is in English, Mozlem with a z.

To me that is rather inflammatory rhetoric and has little if any room for an enlightened discussion forum as this is.  Cromwell you say this"

The Christian Crusades were defensive holy wars by mostly sincere Christians against an enemy of rape, pillage, and murder.

So the rest of the world especially the middle east have it all wrong?  I suspect the reason why crusader is such a dirty word in the middle east is because bad things happened when they showed up.  Lets say for argument sake the Crusaders really were great nice folks.  How do we convince those who think otherwise they are wrong?  By calling them evil, hateful, rapists who love war?

Religion and Politics for good reason are topics to avoid during parties, particularly when there are guns and booze around.

I think we are mature enough here that these topics and be talked about if we all respect the others point of views and beliefs.  Frimmel and  LHoffman impressed me with their ability to agree to disagree.  The only reason I came to this thread is that you raised it from the dead so to speak.

The Dora Links doll also has a magical alert system; she knows when new mysteries have been added to DoraLinks. When you pet him somewhere that he doesn’t like he will show his anger and attack you. For example, studies have shown that teens who watch lots of sexual content on TV are more likely to initiate intercourse or participate in other sexual activities earlier than peers who don’t watch sexually explicit shows.

Haven’t posted in here in awhile… Coming up on mid-season now… Hate to say it but the Spurs are looking good! Orlandos addition of Hedo, Richardson, Areanas and Clark has seemed to be working. Won 6 straight and beat the 2 best teams (Spurs and Boston). If Hedo shines then I think we’re going to be a huge threat…

Damn Miami has picked up some speed too…

I wish we could’ve picked up Blake Griffin and Chris Paul… I can always wish…

@idk_iam_swiss:

I accept…terms are set. I slap you with a dead fish!

I burn down the white house

Brits already did that

And British North America.

What?? British North America burned the White House?

With Britain, yes.

Since Canada was a British territory, this was a british act

It was somewhat a separate colony

Canada wasn’t given any autonomy until July 1, 1867, which is what Canada Day celebrates. The Burning of the White House took place during the War of 1812 in 1814.

I never said Canada, I said British North America.

@Cmdr:

Bah, okay, fine, CC, you dragged outta me, you can have a good karma…. :P

Wha Hooo!!

@Yanny:

why should Columbus day be a holiday?

Guglielmo Marconi and Amerigo Vespucci don’t have their own holidays. Those of us with any Italian heritage need a National Day of Whoopee!

NO, not WHOOPIE! You filthy minded pervs…
