The bear story just made me sad.

[will641]

yeah the bear story is sad, but it also made me lol a little, because the first thing that popped into my head was winnie the pooh.

[ProZachNation]

wtf it had a jug on its head tranq it and pull it off don't kill it, the bear went to the city to find someone who would help him. Like the lion with the thorn in its foot.

That was like saddest possible news story, thread fails to deliver.

Also my dog a newfoundland looks like a bear and I fear people will shoot him when we got camping.

[a500lbgorilla]

just got back to my hometown after driving all the way from vegas. i had a very very awesome summer. i got to travel across the country twice (first time going nashville, birmingham, dallas, vegas, second time it went colorado springs, st louis, louisville, stop at uva, then home). of course between these two trips i was living out in vegas having too much fun, which is why i havent been on the internet (includes forums and playing poker) as much as im used to.

[wufwugy]

i think their bbq is inferior to that of texas bbq.

[DrivingDog]

Uh, yeah. What's wrong with tranquilizing it, taking the jug off and putting it back in the woods. I don't get why they had to kill it.

[gabe]

nashville was fun. we partied on that road with all the honky tonk bars or whatever. my 2 friends are fake rednecks so they loved it and i had fun getting drunk. carolina bbq is better than everything.

"We have word from people on the scene . . . that when the killer was alone with the body . . . that there may have been some small acts of cannibalism on the body," Oliver said.

So I was at this bar last night and was telling this story to my friend as if my friend was the kid so I started it "so imagine you're sitting there listening to your ipod..." Some chick made me stop somewhere around "so he's swinging your head around in one hand while eating your arm and trying to break out of the bus with his knife..." What ever happened to conversation? Bitches...

[Jack Sawyer]

they will ban fastfood in poor areas

[bigspenda73]

I mean I get the principles behind it but it is a restrictions on our freedoms as Americans.

However, if these are government subsidized low income housing they should be able to restrict whatever type of business builds in their area.

[Jack Sawyer]

it is a restrictions on our freedoms as Americans.

LOL American freedom

you didn't get the memo?

[Jack Sawyer]

Not to pick on you spenda, but I kinda found your American freedom comment amusing

Here's just a small recent example as to why:
Travelers' Laptops May Be Detained At Border
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...=moreheadlines

And obviously always present {from the article}

DHS officials said the newly disclosed policies -- which apply to anyone entering the country, including U.S. citizens -- are reasonable and necessary to prevent terrorism.

You guys really really really need to wake up and do something before its too late

This is Fargan scary. WTF is next, they come to your house, door to door like Jehovahs witnesses searching for terrorists.

Interesting events happened at my campus today.

There have been some protests regarding experiments done on animals lately at UCSC (which I attend). Last school year some of the scientists' homes were invaded by people with ski masks and they were threated. If I remember correctly they broke some stuff in the house during the process.

Earlier today a car of one of the scientists was fire bombed with something similar to napalm. The house of another scientist was also bombed in a similar fashion.

The car was completely destroyed.

omg i hate animal activists. such a poor poor poor understanding of reality is requisite to be one.

[mrhappy333]

Story and pics here http://www.santacruzsentinel.com/ci_...ce=most_viewed

from the article
Fliers identifying 13 UCSC scientists, some of whom use mice, fruit flies and other nonprimate creatures in their research, were discovered at a downtown coffee shop Tuesday. The fliers say, "Animal abusers everywhere beware; we know where you live; we know where you work; we will never back down until you end your abuse." The names, home addresses, home phone numbers and photos of researchers were published on the fliers.


Animal activists need to pick a better reason to fire bomb someones house. Mice and fruit flys is rediculous.

[wufwugy]

like i said, they must command egregious misunderstandings with related issues in order espouse their position.

fruit flies have super poor memories. not to mention many other factors that basically make them being experimented on harmless.

Yea. The thing that blows my mind is that they will endanger human lives, the most advanced animal of all, to protect mice and flies. WHAT!?

so whack

They're saying they can rifle through all the information in a traveler's laptop without having a smidgen of evidence that the traveler is breaking the law,"
