well my dad was pretty tiring, all i can really say is that i really dislike the Uvic library, because it is the most busy(in terms of there being so much stuff in it) library in it. like seriously it was like walking into antique store the place is so crowded, i dont thing you could walk more then 5 ft in any direction without walkin into something and the isles are like 3 feet wide.

How do I Help?
Time
its not that far into it, i dont think he is so fasr gone that he will need rehab, cuase he just started, like cumlitively he has only spent about 60 dollars so far so that gives you an idea of where he is at. i was thinking about removing that friend that encourages it but its hard cause they both live in a res and on the same floor, whereas i live in a entirely different res. i donno i thought about it, and i think i have a plan of action.

edit, not 600 60 dollars

no no i disagree, if wayne is guilty the worst he will get is a fine or something cause its a misdomenor to bet. toccite is fucked if he gets conviced, but alas, i feel bad for wayne, caus eregardless of whether he is guilty or not, the accusation is enough to tarnish his reputation. he was one of the ONLY Icons in sports that was 100% clean, after this regardless of whether he did anything or not, he is no longer clean.

Unorthodox Star Wars Beliefs

good post man, we need more stuff like that. i like your ideas about the balance, just a little play on it, i think anakin as was meant to be a reset button for the force, if you know what i mean. like after ROTJ, all the true ideas of the sith and te Jedi were gone, only the major symbolic idologies existed, and everyone was left to start again, 1000 years of tradition was gone on both sides. that why i find the EU so interesting cause they jsut dont know whats right and whats wrong. thats one of the best things about traitor and all the NJO and post NJO books.

yeah, man its just hurts when you look at history and you see how the events and mentalities of today came about. we are pretty much paying for the sins of our grandfathers... well no tmy grandfather cause he lived in india and was just as opressed as all ther other people where the fanatics come from. you look at the british empire and how they pretty much cut up the middle-east as if it was a puzzle, and how the UN created isreal out of no where, its just a joke when you look back on it. (i just look at the idea of the creation of isreal, in the way it was made and think. Yeah thats a GREAT idea, cause thats NOT going to piss the islamic population off, here they are fighting for 1000 years over that very soil, for that soil. and all of a sudden they are thrown off as if they are little kids playing on there parents bed) but alas that is my rant of the day. and dont take me the wrong way i know that jews needed a place after the holocast, but look at it from the eyes of the palistinians. how would you feel if all of a sudden it was decided that the northeastern seaboard was an islamic state, and that all the people that live there have to leave immediately with no reperations for there land or anything.

The Things We Hate And Love Thread .
Time
yes i HATE that as well. you know i was just thinking that the other day when i was in my dry lab, its seems that this semester both of my partners have been completely clueless aobut the labs, and i have been left to 1. figure out whats going on and 2. explain it to them. and then it jsut further pissed me off when we have to do this perposal thing where we need to improve one of the labs, and i tell one of my partners to do the write-up, he does a crap one and the TA tells us to redo it, then just in small talk with another TA i come up with a brillent one. so now i am left to redo the perposal. its so fuckin annoying.

I have always felt that the word terrorism as it is currently used is a misnomer. Terror has always been a tool of the governing class, used to beat their opponents and their own citizenry into submission. Terror, or the application of terror in this context is nothing new. For example, when armies in the middle-ages would put entire villiages to the torch and slaughter entire populations, the terror of the people was at least a hoped for by-product.

I think a distinction needs to be made between the tactics of our current enemies and their desire to breed terror. Just a different means to reach the same end. In the past it was called "guerilla" tactics, which denoted a movement of a far-inferior group (in terms of weaponry, finances, support, etc) fought a non-conventional campaign against a superior foe, ie: Ireland, The American Revolution, etc.


hahaha ok your ight jedi, i didnt mean it directly, i was refering to all the conflicts with islamic fanatic and islamic nations, i should have clarified that.

I too am fascinated by WW2, Hitler's rise to power, and the final solution. If you guys are ever in England I'll take you to the Imperial War Museum and RAF hendon. While I was working in a hospital I met a guy who fought in the D-Day landings and the Korean War. Of the two, he said Korea was worse.

I see some people saying they find the cold-war era more intersting. I tend to look at the whole thing as one big war that is still ongoing - Colonialism and imperialism led to WW1, which led to Hitler's rise and WW2, which led to the circumstances that gave birth to the cold war and also added to the troubles in Palsetine/Israel. That is a simplified explanation but hopefully you know what I mean.


you could take that one step further and say that terrorism is also a product of the cold war and WW2

that wasnt the only one. there was the touch down for seattle that was disallowed, there was also a phantom call on a 40 yard passing play, where they called it back on a holding penatly that wasnt holding. also there was a 40 or 50 yard pass where the guy got it then ran and fumbled it and the ball went outta bounds. there were jsut too many momentum killing phantom penalties in that game.
