Yep, but they still teach kids in public schools that it was about slavery. :D I mean, if you believe that then you probably also believe in Santa Clause... or the idea the government can do anything better than the private sector.

Well he spent a lot of money slaughtering 600,000 Americans. (Something Osama bin Laden could only dream of). Interesting factiod: So much money was spent on that war, he could have simply used it to buy all the slaves!

TechnicolorGreenEyes, you should go to Charleston and get some shrimp & grits and she-crab soup. Oh and sweet tea. For some reason decent sweet tea is hard to come by up North. And you're right, the South is hilariously stereotyped-to-death on TV and in movies. It's not like that. But I suppose since you guys won the War of Northern Aggression, you can set the rules.

Living in the South has its ups and downs. Ups: The weather. The friendly, considerate people. The low taxes. The undeveloped land. Beaches. Downs: There are more churches than gas stations. Sassy, attitude-wearing black people. Hyper-religious white people. The cops. Fewer fancy restaurants.

lol I would totally play this card but right now I'm hemorrhaging money because traders are convinced happy days are here again. I'm not going to pare back my holdings of this short ETF just yet, I'm still convinced we'll test the bottom again soon. Limbaugh made a funny point today about how every time Obama leaves the country, the markets recover. Maybe when he returns they'll tank again. ;)

And I like the "Look Around You" series which is on Adult Swim, too. Actually it's funny you mention that because I never really considered it. Honestly I just have certain favorite cartoon characters, and they include Brian (from Family Guy) and Bender (from Futurama). I guess the people who put together Adult Swim have the same sense of humor I do.

One of these days I'm going to post a recording of my voice on here and you're going to be absolutely shocked. ;) Yeah, my name is Jay.

I'm not sure I'll be doing Ambien anytime soon, either purposefully or recreationally. :stunned: The best pill you'll ever take is Tramadol. I think that's how you spell it. Anyway, it's a powerful painkiller. One time my friend had some and I took a couple, and after about 30 minutes I completely understood why painkillers can be addicting. It was like a combination of going downhill on a rollercoaster (the fun part) and getting that great feeling in your muscles like you've been working out/running for the last hour. And you generally feel really happy. Gosh, I need some painkillers again. Maybe I should click on this hilariously-misspelled spam email I got saying I don't need a prescription. Here's my credit card number. And social. Man they feel good, I'll get rush delivery.

He said nice stuff about you, and that you two were friends. It was really sweet. :)

Hey Milika, Josh told me about you on AIM! ;)

My friend took a couple Ambien and stayed awake by smoking, and he started seeing faces in the walls. He said it was like dreaming while being awake... pretty creepy stuff.

Take four muscle relaxants with two cans of beer and you'll be out cold. If you wake up, you'll probably be laying in a puddle of your own pee, but at least you got some sleep!

I know... and I'm trying to gain muscle here, so this isn't exactly helping.

Now's not a good time to retire, with the stock market like it is. But yeah, I think I might go to bed soon also. :) But I'm hungry and I don't feel like going to get something to eat right now. Damn these paradoxes!

Hey guys... I'm still up. :P

Well they define "deflation" as a shrinking of the supply of credit, not as its true definition: But this type of thing doesn't happen too often.

Ok well don't let him get a hybrid, they're nonsense. Here's why: A hybrid's battery is lugging around the idle gasoline engine most of the time, and on the highway the gasoline engine is lugging around the idle battery/electric motor. Either go 100% gasoline or 100% electric. It's the least wasteful use of energy. I recommend a tricked out Toyota Corolla.

Tell your dad to get a Tesla. They're the real deal. http://www.teslamotors.com

Fois gras with veal... a deliciously sinful meal of tortured ducks and calves.

Josh is afraid of downloading torrents today because he believes they spread viruses like STDs on April 1st.

We have the same birthday. :stunned:

Is this seriously a vegetarian smackdown? Lame to the nth degree.

lol whoa there buddy. :sneaky:

*pinches cheek*

Ohh okay well I'll take it either later tonight or tomorrow. I've got some badass sunglasses to use!
