I don't know about that.  I know a lot of people who could use a good punch in the face.  All of them over 18 though.  Tongue


I would never punch anyone in the face on purpose.  Pies are definitely in though. Tongue
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Sometimes I just have uncontrollable spasms in my right arm, that causes my fist to tighten and connect with someone's face.  Wink

Seriously, I haven't hit someone in the face since I was 16 (since my butt is too cute to go to jail), but I can still dream about it.  Tongue
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

Interesting how celebrity deaths even come by the threes in the philosophical/political sphere: Hitchens, Havel, and Il in just a couple days. The first two were far more important (and obviously much better people) in the grand scheme of things but the last will garner more attention.


Time always wins.

Thanks for not embedding the video Stoney - nicely done (how long it will be on YouTube anyway is anyone's guess...)

Just watched it & my God... words cannot express my disgust.

The images are sickening.

Still, at least Egypt is now a free, fair and open society, free of all oppression, now the evil dictator has gone...
