The link: http://www.lse.co.uk/ShowbizNews.asp?Code=YV124368Y&headline=steve_irwin_attacked_by_animal_rights_group

A quote for the lazy: "PETA spokesman Dan Mathews said: 'He made his career out of antagonising frightened wild animals, and that's a very dangerous message to send to young children.'"

They made the comment just days after he was killed. Indecent? Acceptable? Do you agree that Steve Irwin exploited animals?

Please don't say "I LOVE STEVE!!!" or anything like that. If you do, you will be reported for not answering the question.

I know tobaccos are very addictive substance so when I see someone who is old and still smoking I can understand cuz back then 50s -70s cigarettes weren't consider to be so dangerous but today I just find it ridiculous when I see people smoke especially now that it's confirmed that it kills you and linked to all types of cancers, now even HIV! (link below) But the stupidest part about smokers is that they go out of their way to pay for it!

and if so, does anyone ever "inspect" the facilities here in the US and in Israel? And has it ever been suggested that the US discontinue its pursuit of WMD's?

and if NOT, why not? for both questions?

My mother purchased a car for my sister to drive for work and sis agreed to pay notes & insurance. (1st mistake...) My sister then stiffed her on the agreed monthly payments for 6 months, and failed to cover the car with full-coverage insurance...Guess next!
New car, uninsured & now totalled. As an added bonus, my sister used the tollway without the proper tag and ran up $2600 in camera fines running the EZTAG lanes. The authorities are telling my mother she is responsible because the plates comeback in her name. My mother cannot go to jail for something my sister did! She is elderly, and lives over 80 miles from the occurances. What can we do??? Please anyone with good advice, Help me keep my Mother out of jail!

Subject: Denzel Washington, and

Brooks Army Medical Center


Don't know whether you heard about this

but Denzel Washington and his family visited

the troops at Brook Army Medical Center , in

San Antonio , Texas (BAMC) the other day. This

is where soldiers who have been evacuated from

Germany come to be hospitalized in the United

States, especially burn victims. There are some

buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher

House is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay,

for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying

in the Hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses

on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled

most of the time.

While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave

him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how

much one of them would cost to build. He took his check

book out and wrote a check for the full amount right there

on the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear

this story and want to get the word out to the American

public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it.


The question I have is why does:

Alec Baldwin,

Madonna,

Sean Penn and

other Hollywood types

make front page news with their anti-everything

America trash and Denzel Washington's Patriotism

doesn't even make page 3 in the Metro section of

any newspaper except the Local newspaper in San

Antonio .


























A true American and friend to all in uniform!




This needs as wide a distribution

as we can create.


GOD BLESS YOU DENZEL

FOR YOUR PATRIOTISM

The "pope, and all infidels, should know that no Muslim, under any circumstances, can tolerate an insult to the Prophet (Muhammad). ... If the West does not change its stance regarding Islam, it will face severe consequences," it said.


DISGUSTING....that place should be wiped off the map.

Completely disgusting people.

Any muslims want to defend their gross ideology and devilish faith?

A little healthy skepticism is a good thing. But how can people
deny their own experiences?
The word skeptic comes from a town in ancient Greece called
Skepsis. It was a place where the people knew nothing about
what went on outside of their own little town. The word skeptic
was a put down.
So whenever a person prides him or herself on being a skeptic,
they pride themselves on the fact the don't know anything!

How many Americans took to the streets and rioted or killed anyone after Chavez' insane remarks ? That the democrats embrace socialism , has never been more apparent -but we aren't going to stoop the hate tactics of liberals and their COMRADES , like Chavez , by taking to the streets like the terrorist group that is trying to destroy our people , our freedom and our economy .- WHILE those very same people are being praised by Chavez and the liberals . Since when does the U.S. have to defend keeping terrorism off our soil ?

As if the liberal democrats didn't lead the parade in denigrating our country and President - along comes the new spokesman for the democrats-repeating their sentiments exactly-and then some . Hugo Chavez is running his own economy into the ground - and if he has his way-oil prices will skyrocket . This socialist is going to come to America and bum-rap our country ; then go pump up the labor unions here ? Who's ready for a socialist government ? If we didn't know before that liberal democrats are / and have been trying to bring us all into socialism and communism . It has never been more clear .

Just try it, debate with a liberal and disagree with him on something.

The liberal will say: STFU u Nazi (or something like that)

Liberals claim to be for the people but really want absolute power.

Conservative people just dismiss someone who disagrees, but don't go violent unlike liberals.

Liberals do not want to work hard yet advocate that the lazy should be handed free money at the expense of the hard working.

This old man, George, next door, passed on a few days ago.
We found out he was flat broke when he died, and actually owed
money. He was a really friendly guy. Used to say hi when he'd see me reading on my porch, and say, "Go out and do something!
Stop reading and start living"! Regardless, he passed on, and now
I am worried about burials for people like that. The web, everywhere I look, says that someone broke with no relatives gets
buried in a pine box, in a potter's field at that.

The following description of a potter's field is beyond sad, and the saddest thing is they bury the bodies in one giant grave, stacked
like products at Wal-Mart. Some potters cemetaries dont even
use pine boxes, and dump the bodies enmasse off the backs
of sanitation trucks, like the holocaust.
I don't want George's body to be treated like this....what should I do? Can I get hima decent burial for a few grand? I don't have much, but I can cough just about that up. Suggestions appreciated.
