Banshees Scream

I think Armitage Shanks should log in. That's what I think. And as far as the probability of where the masters of DDP will stand at it's end ... there is no truth to that question until we get there. Analyzing the current statistics and visualizing the probable outcome is the only link to any knowledge at this point in the competition. If you live by facts, this approach is common sense. Then again, death is unlimited. The prospects who are improbable just might defy their general expectation at any given time.

Eee hemm .... O and Mr. Burrel it's been nearly fifteen minutes since I've asked for my teee ... bring it to me at once landarbeiter ..... Ehhhemma. Anyway, I think we all have seriously had enough of this discussion. So I wanted to change the subject and ask how Patrick Moore has been these days? I see he is even inspiring how you've been posting, Star Crossed. . I imagine him like the Don Rinkles of Astronomy. I wasn't privileged to watch a man who is still running his show after fifty something years. I bet you never miss an episode. If there is a wedding that Sunday night, Star Crossed is home with pneumonia.

In this day in age I really don't think royalty should have a place on this earth ... That's just my opinion.

Devon, The New York Times is only one of the most liberal news papers ever. Even as I know you felt it was an optimistic article at some level, you can't be surprised reading this when you see where it comes from. I actually think it's pretty funny how they are trying to persuade people with these 'statistics' but another source has a completely different mindset. This article explains McCain is not only fit enough for an eight year run but it states he will have five comfortable years of retirement. Overall that would give his life span another 13. 1 years - experts claim. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/worl...icle3511861.ece 'The man is an antique' but I doubt he will be put on the shelf any time soon.

On the latest trips and slips ... Robert C. Byrd, the 90 year old senator who is in fact the longest-serving senator in U.S. history is currently hospitalized after having a negative reaction to antibiotics. He was in the hospital on the result of a tumble last week, but recovered. This time he is back with a urinary track infection. http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5goXN0rC...R2-PQgD8V7I9H81 John Wooden, the legendary 97 year old American basketball ball coach is currently hospitalized after taking a slip in his Encino condo. He broke his wrist and collar bone, and has remained in the hospital since February 29th. http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5gWAm1g_...ufkAmgD8V891P84 Doctors seem optimistic, but I'm not falling for it.

Nothing is better then a shocker, but I'm never that optimistic. The minute I sat down with my coffee I saw the 4th 2008 success pole, and Sydney's thread was the most active. I only find out seconds later 'It was Francis Pym' who dropped dead ... and you know ..... I was sort of expecting a Pollack. It's that same feeling where you expect something really great ... and it turns out to be very mediocre. Anyway, I'm finally going with Sydney Pollack.

Swayze reminds of this Jehova Witness I knew. The guy literally use to poor a whole bottle of cologne on his head every morning. (Has anybody had to deal with a situation like that?) By just standing in the same room with him I felt like I was getting cancer.

Abdul Qadeer Khan, 'The Father' of Pakistan's nuclear atomic program is currently hospitalized for extremely low blood pressure and fever. The article talks about infection, but nothing explosive. Another article said the antibiotics weren't effective, so let's see what happens. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/feedarticle/7359319

Frederick Seitz, physicist and big shot skeptic on the subject of Global Warming who led the National Academy of Sciences and Rockefeller University down the same path has croaked in Manhattan at the age of 96. You know, I actually think Global Warming is a little exaggerated. Of course that doesn't mean it's not an issue. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/06/us/06seitz.html?ref=us

This is a true story and it's probably the most scared that I have ever been in my entire life. This is a drug story. But I'm clean now. Geovanni said he would be over in 20 minutes. It was probably four or five years ago. Any dealer that says he will be over in twenty minutes is like a jack pot find 'Some of you know that'...... reliability at it's finest. I'm in a suburban neighborhood now with a couple of my friends and we are already really high and on top of that I took like four or five Vikiden so the thought of getting in a car with somebody else driving was not really what I had in mind. We had to meet him, but I wasn't going by car. So I was like 'f**k you guys' 'and f**k you too' (When you are as high as I was, you think you can do anything) So I said 'I'm walking' and that's exactly what I did. I also had no idea where I was going but it was 85 degrees out and it was one of those highs where 'Everybody you see, is everybody you know' and out of nowhere I see this guy walking on somebody's lawn and from there he went to another guys house only he was going by their door. So I'm saying to myself 'this asshole is vandalizing property, this guys trying to break in!' So I took my cell phone out and dialed 9 - 11. I told the operator 'The guy has brown hair, 5'10\5'11 \black shirt ex ex. Right after I get off the phone I happen to see this huge truck thirty five feet from me and on the side of it in big letters it read 'UPS" ... it was the f****n mailman! Then I realize O my god.. 'I have brown hair. I'm wearing a black shirt. All of a sudden I realize I have one of my friends bags in my pocket and at the bottom of it there is so much coke......maybe three or four grams . . I'm going to jail. I'm going to jail. The thoughts were repetitious. Less then ten minutes later I'm getting dry mouth so badly I felt as if I were roasting in the Arizona desert. I felt as if all the houses were looking at me. I'm beginning to sweat and the sun was beginning to make that high pitched noise. At that very moment a cop car passed right beside me, I had never been so bugged out in my entire life. I was fortunate for it to pass me by. It was only along side of me for ten seconds, but it felt like ten minutes. By this time I was almost in some other town. It had just occurred to me 'where am I going?' and having that day been so lifeless I finally saw a human being out on their front lawn. It was a woman with this gigantic sun hat and she was kneeling down gardening. This woman ... had a fantastic body. Blond. From that view she was a 8\10. She was turned away and I needed a drink so badly ... I needed something. I said 'Hey, excuse me' 'Hello' No answer. Hello. No answer. I walked up up to the edge on the lawn and she remained in the same spot. Knelt down, with this gigantic gardening hat\ long blond hair and facing towards her home. One last time I said ....... HELLO She turned around IT was a f****n 85 year old woman........... I was never so horrified in my entire life. It looked like John McCains mother. I just kept walking and walking never more shaken. To this day I can never be sure how many miles I walked that afternoon.

Wow, five weeks to live. You don't even have time to be in denial. I don't even know how I would respond if I was given an approximation like that. Maybe this will at least give (Ghost, 1990) some air time. On the subject of time I recently figured out that to an adult one week seems approximately (4 Days) which would mean one day for the weekend and three days during the week. In the perception of a child (7 days) seems like eight days, making their perception of time practically twice the capacity for they have lived fewer years. As we reach old age, our feel for experience becomes more appreciated and we may regain some of the simple understanding of living for the moment, instead of living for the thought. If these reports are all truth, Patrick Swayze is no doubt at stance with his Final Show Down.

Sen. John McCain has now officially clinched the Republican nomination after managing to win Texas, Ohio, Vermont and Rhode Island which provided him with 1,191 delegates. Sen. Mike Huckabee has finally decided to face reality as he dropped out of the race almost instantly after the results came in. McCain just finished his victory speech on CNN. On the Democratic side of the race Hillary Clinton has defeated Barack Obama in Rhode Island by a reasonable statistic (59% - 40%) while Obama is surprisingly taking Texas at this minute (50% - 48%) and has won Vermont (60% - 38%) which the overall outcome of 'Texas especially which is practically dead even' will have significant impact. Hillary Clinton is maintaining a very solid lead in Ohio (57% - 41%) 'which assuming the probable outcome' her position in this race is still very competitive.

So even as the National Enquirer was never the most trusted name in news I guess they weren't bullshit when they come out with this story six months ago. Sydney Pollack's curtain is about to hit the floor. Or in other words for people who take this as entertainment It's ... Show Tiiiiiiiiiime.

Randy Pausch, media sensation who has been famed on result of his terminal pancreatic cancer was in stable condition as of February 15th. The original diagnosis was 3 - 6 months last August but six months after giving his 'Last Lecture' the man remains living the everyday life. His philosophies of living to the fullest and holding no regrets should no doubt be an inspiration for us all. On a positive state of thought looking beyond the current matter I expect nature to take it's course by .. May. http://www.independentmail.com/news/2008/m...ble-lesson-wil/

According to this article the former sex symbol of the 1950's is against organ transplants and dialysis. Her current condition is pessimistically described as growing 'worse and worse' and keep in mind she also is suffering from heart failure. http://www.javno.com/en/bestseller/clanak.php?id=127794

Hey Fransisco, I thought Castro resigned? Where you are getting that información? What world do you live in amigo que no sabe sh*t!

Ladies and gentleman, while we have to continue wasting time I wanted to share one mans view on offensive remarks which are virtually just common mistakes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywQ-DEqBKHA While I'm at it you have to see this genius take up a sixth grade $300 dollar question! I apologize for the quality of sound.

I'm speechless here. I can't believe what I'm reading. Un - f****n believable. Last night I was analyzing my opponents prospects and I was mentally calculating their probable outcome for this year. I do this about once a week and even as I hate to admit it I'm a pessimist when it comes to viewing the probability of my own candidates demise and I have the same mentality with just about everyone else. Now last night 'no sh*t man' I swear on my DDP teams success this year that I was looking over the Living End's team and I said to myself 'Norm O' Neil?' this has to be a selection based on impulse. I've never heard of him because I have little knowledge on the game of cricket sort of how most people in the UK have little knowledge on the game of American baseball. For this reason, I read a solid proportion of his Wikipedia 'so I could find an explanation for his selection' there wasn't one and on Monday, March 3rd 2008 he drops dead and they don't even mention a cause of death. It's unreal. Anyway, congratulations to those who selected Jeff Healey. At one point he was on my draft list but his updates on his website were very optimistic but the result proves my perspective wrong and I made a bad call. The bright side is I have several candidates who can match his value and now it does in fact get interesting as a three way tie waits to be broken.

From Rome - Italian Opera star Giuseppe di Stefano who survived being jumped handicap style by robbers back in 2004 - and who I had considered for my DDP team is now dead near Milan at the age of 86. http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/18...dead-at-86.html

Dundee United chairman Eddie Thompson doesn't have long left on this earth as every bone in his body is riddled with cancer. According to this article there was only a 5% chance of the disease actually moving into his brain which the cancer has defied all odds. The radiation therapy has proved ineffective and on my time table his show down is waiting for the summer. http://sport.scotsman.com/sport/United-he-...ddie.3834383.jp

Small world. Anyway because of Mugabe everything Zimbabwe is at it's record worst. His administration's policies have led to an economic collapse and he is accused of just about everything. I'm pretty sure this was the leader who had cancer eight times but never croaked. I'm very skeptical of people from foreign nations who claim they have cancer. How long has Obiang had terminal prostate cancer? How long has Fidel Castro been ailing? I doubted Drnovsek even being at his final show down until it all actually happened. I mean it looked like his face was caving in but I thought that's what Vegans looked like. Anyway talking political figures my focus is on Zeljko Sturanovic who is now the former president of Montenegro after he recently resigned on the result of lung cancer.

Bravo. Out of just about every single post that I have ever read this one has been by far the most human. I have to agree on several points you have demonstrated and I must disagree on several points you have demonstrated but I will not ask you to be any more magnanimous or to be any more direct on any proportion of this matter.

Based on the results in this thread I'm surprised Hillary has such an edge on Obama. I guess most of us really didn't see this coming. Hillary now has a new television ad and to be perfectly honest I didn't get it at first. It's a phone ringing at 3 AM while they film sleeping children. Th narrator says "Your vote will decide who answers the call," the ad's narrator says. "Whether it's someone who already knows the world's leaders, knows the military. Someone tested and ready to lead in a dangerous world." I mean seriously. Does desperation get any more breath taking then this?

Joseph Juran, pioneer of quality control who revolutionized how companies around the world made and sold products and who was even the author of the "Quality Control Handbook" and has been quoted as saying Never be without a project,' and he never was," is dead at the result of a stroke at the age of 103. A unique hit for 'Godot's Waiting List' if he gets the obituary. http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2008/03/01/...-Obit-Juran.php

But Star Crossed, around maybe 3\10ths of that 1% are likely illegal aliens. I'm right unless the article explains otherwise and after reading it once 'If it does state that' I missed it. Either way overall the results are unbelievable. Basically one in every 9 blacks from ages 20 - 35 are in jail! As I've said in other posts the increase of illegal immigration will only grow with time and in this (2004 article) a study finds (73 out of 100) illegal immigrants sampled were arrested as much as six times! My question is what is the percentage of illegal immigrants who have ADD? http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2007-0...s-arrests_x.htm I've always told myself that Ralph Naders idea of legalizing Marijuana was unnecessary for then the underground drug economy would change dramatically. 7th graders would be doing lines instead of joints. I was saying to myself 'Well then the Bloods could sell coke without the anxiety!' but them being so business- intelligent Crystal Meth would become the new scum bag drug. The statistics wouldn't really change much.
