Do you take offense when 'Gargantua' Graces your thread?

James will never be a Laker and actually nobody good wants to be a Laker.

@Tall:

By the way,….this is reported as the World’s Tallest Flagpole, and it is so large,….

Actually this is North America’s tallest flagpole. I believe the tallest in the world are in North and South Korea.

Either way, very impressive and inspiring. Thanks for the read Paul.

If Germany didn’t lost ww1 we wouldnt have had:

ww2.
The consequences of the end of the Ottoman Empire (a lot of middle east shits thats happening today, like Israel).
Maybe NO SOVIET UNION and NO COMMUNISM.
USA staying isolationist and not trying to gain influence here and there, nor participating in any war.
FRANCE out of the annoyance of Europe.

What would happened next? Dunno!

But at least in ww1 although even Italy fought against the Austro/Hungaric Empire and the Prussians (My grandad was 18 in 1917 and fought ww1 AND ww2), I still think the “bad guys” where absolutely France+Uk+Italy+USA+THE REST OF THE WORLD.

@AgentOrange:

So that was YOU in that old Blind Melon video!!

HAAA! LOL

i’ve never seen that till now,

Yellow has the most pop-out, it has the most emotion of the colors, it is striking, fast and violent.

Other colors are plain, and thats a good thing, becasue all though yellow is the most powerful it’s not cool in fact it’s the hottest of all colors. so other colors are good in order to support yellow.

It dons’t take a queer eye to figure this out, just line up a bunch of colors and anyone can see YELLOW PWNs!

I don’t get the pay per views but I do find myself watching the fights if I’m not watching a movie or doing something on the computer.

so anyone have any favorites?  fighters they hate on there?    what styles do you think are the best?  like the militich fighting system, or kickboxing, judo, jujitsu, brazilian jujitsu, striking……?

No real favorites. I usually get a bit bored with the posturing and talk. I want to hate Tito Ortiz for being a punk with Shamrock but I can’t seem to bring myself to because Ortiz backed up what came out of his mouth.

I don’t think any style has an edge except for hitting hard and being fast and maybe it is just TV but these guys don’t look that fast to me. They are way faster than I am as I’m way out of shape and never was in much to be sure but it just seems to me that they should be faster. I suppose it is just relative–both guys are pretty fast distorting it to someone who isn’t.

I think it needs an epilepsy seizure warning…

Eh, I’ve got no particular take on ‘em. I suppose they could be cool, but I’ve never liked the whole atmosphere of collectable stuff. Give me good ol’ Diplomacy any day :D.

@HortenFlyingWing:

care about the environment. Loggin’ is their biggest business.

well, we do “care” about the environment - prolly more than America, as well as many other nations. We are the home of Greenpeace, afterall. Also there are many “renewable resource” programs in place, and dozens of friends of mine spend their summers working tree-planting for these logging companies, etc.
No no, not logging. Our shame is in Alberta - a province that is working against Kyoto and environmental measures (it’s the Texas of Canada - with the good and the bad), not that Ontario is so great either - much industry near Toronto etc. Also we do waste quite a bit. Nice having all that landfill room.
