At least the Mexican food is edible.

Wait just a minute! Aren't you the same Ken Smith who said in the previous post (at least on this server):

I disagree. "Human rights" are the rights you have just because you are human. "The social contract" is an agreement between the the people and the government where the people choose not to exercise some of their rights individually but rather collectively. Those rights are not given up. They are still the rights of the individuals.

How do you reconcile these two statements?

Eagles eat beaver. So do we.

We eat that too.

Blame Gadsden.

While there would obviously be a coastal real-estate boom, annexing Baja would be a bad idea from an energy standpoint. It is an energy sink, not energy source.

Nah, it's Football, where a good defensive play may be a "blitz", a good offensive play may be a "bomb", and a good game will go into "sudden death".

The tooth brush was invented in Canuckistan. If it had been invented in the US it would have been called the "teeth brush".

They're called "mujeres".

...and eats the dead.

I thought the Canuckistani national animal was the fur-lined pleasure-palace of the same name.

Ankle biter.

Yeah, we'd have to put them _all_ on welfare after.

I thought the tooth brush was invented in Poland ?:-)

I certainly wish there were some way we could teach this to the sheeple.

But, I think they're afraid. They're terrified of not having Mommy or Daddy or Uncle Sugardaddy tell them every single move to make. Good grief, man! If they had to make up their own mind, and actually _think up_ what to do next, they might be ****WRONG****!!!!! And, of course, in that case, the world would end and they'd suffer eternal damnation.

Thank Goddess I'm not one of them!

Cheers! Rich

The "sheeple" that you mock have historically shown quite a lot of sense. Why do you think that you have a lot, or indeed anything, to teach them?

That's why the troops use GPS. No need to convert from those silly French measurements to real, usable figures.

I thought maybe you were dealing with my relatives in Kentucky. ;-)

BTW, didn't you hear about the lawsuits between Wiley and Acme?

And they would still have to choose a standard.

How would you like it if some group came to England and demanded that you change your standards, or else? You'd tell them to piss off, even if they landed on the lawn of Buckingham palace in heavily armed flying saucers and told you that you were in violation of the Galactic Standards Court.

The European Commission already did that, and Ted Heath let them.

I guess, in a nutshell, I want to present the opportunity for people to recognize their own Free Will, and if they follow some leader, to do so by their choice, rather than being bullied or intimidated or frightened into doing what their current authroity figure demands.

Or at least, to acknowledge that, no matter whom you install over yourself as your authority figure, it is YOU who appointed him to that job.

Thanks! Rich
