Are not very hard. Far more are made than missed. I actually meant to say the lay-up drill should be over a center. It would still be quite easy, and awful way for a game to be decided.

If you can't admit that penalty kicks are lame, that is better for you, as it happens so often.

I don't see how I am a glaring example of what Eugi...is talking about. I don't see the world Anon said at all. It is just silly to say American sports are not loved around the world.

Saying that baseball is just played in the US us grossly inaccurate.

Also, I have a friend in London, who is dying to move to the US, explain to me why it is so hard for the English to get greencards. She said if they could, England would be empty the next day.  

I figured there were others out there.

And the US is clearly committed to keeping Iraq intact. Isn't that why we are still over there? And anyways, accusing a foreign enemy of trying to divide and conquer would hardly take a crystal ball.

Me thinks you need not worry if the fear-mongering of the right has affected you. You need to worry more about why you give Osama far more credit than he deserves.

That makes for an embarrassing obituary...

 He came. He saw. He plotzed.

A black Darfuri is therefore much less likely to be a Bin Ladenist than, say, a white man from Warsaw claiming Jewish heritage in 1939 was likely to be a Nazi in disguise. This "official" argument centered on Israeli security is not so terribly compelling.

That is a wonderful point.

Create an exact replica of a Soviet-style political retraining prison, kidnap Natalie Portman, throw her into it and just before she thought she was going to be executed, I would let her know that the whole thing was a farce. That way she would finally get her priorities straight. Or has that all ready been done? Either way, I hit the Power Ball and that bitch is gonna get her head right.

I would name Boris's beard Superman IV, The Quest for Peace.

Shirt me.

I was at a Shabbes dinner last night, and the hostess went to my elementary school. She had a copy of an anthology from when I was in fifth grade. The anthology had what must be my earliest published work. A Haiku. I think that if you read between the lines, my fifth-grade self had a lot of the answers these poets seek:

Whales; by Mason Lerner, 5th Grade

Whales love the water.

Whales are so interesting.

They are vertebrates.

End

It is only through poetry that we can ever find our way in this crazy world.
