I don’t get it.
Who cares about Bush or the US, it is clear that Charlie can speak from a sofa in Canada like he is in the know. When he is in the middle of things and not just watching CNN and reading the paper his perspective might be more valid. He seems to get mad when others talk about his work when they are not in the trenches but loves to give his expertise on matters of war.
As a non-combatant resident of a free nation (Canada) I have the privilege to have an opinion, as do you.
I do care about the US as my mother was American and my grandfather was the Head of the History Dept at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis.
Now this is getting fun…Anyone with a picture of a young JC Santana and Chuck Wolf should lighten up a bit…can anyone name the others, or have I missed this joke
Oh, partypooper eh
John Davies, Chuck Wolf, Mike Mahler, Peter Twist, JC Santana, and Chad Waterbury are all jokes. Coaches such as Mr. Francis are in a small group of people that don’t sell out.

10 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong
Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.
Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.
Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.
Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.
Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America.
Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.
Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.

I don’t get it.
Its written in a sarcastic tone. Its making a mockery of the arguments that are against gay marriages.
I am pretty sure those are not accurate arguments against gay marriages. I am not saying there are any good arguments for or against gay marriages, but I am quite certain that this list doesn’t help the cause except to show that some people are willing to lie to get their side of the story accepted.
I get what it’s trying to do, but comparing polyester and air conditioning to being gay is a little of a reach. I never knew being a fag was an advancement in science.
I don’t know what you’re talking about Herb, but underwear is very flattering.
I don’t care if you do have a polyester suit, I can’t give you Herb’s number.
How about Herb’s underwear then? huh!?

EXACTLY. Thats what the writer is trying to show by stating them, he is being sarcastic. The writer is obviously gay or for gay marriages. Its like saying “John Smiths’ Training Methods are not effective, thats why none of his sprinters have ever ran sub 10 or sub 20 seconds for the first time after joining HSI” Its a sarcastic comment used to show that John Smiths’ training methods are indeed effective since 6 of his sprinters have gone sub 10 after training under him. Get it now??
You’ll have to ask Herb for them yourself.
That conclusion isn’t supported by the data. All you can say is that he’s mocking some of the arguments against gay marriage.
I was hoping that Herb and THEONE were engaging in very deadpan humor that I didn’t get.
Oh well then if Herb’s undies don’t support his data I certainly won’t be borrowing them - the undies I mean
Cricket’s Greatest Sledges…
1 Rod Marsh & Ian Botham: When Botham took guard in an Ashes match, Marsh welcomed him to the wicket with the immortal words: “So how’s your wife & my kids?”
-
Daryll Cullinan & Shane Warne: As Cullinan was on his way to the wicket, Warne told him he had been waiting 2 years for another chance to humiliate him. “Looks like you spent it eating,” Cullinan retorted.
-
Glenn McGrath (bowling to portly Zimbabwean chicken farmer Eddo Brandes): “Hey Eddo, why are you so Fing Fat?" Eddo Brandes: "Because everytime I F your wife, she throws me a biscuit”
-
Robin Smith & Merv Hughes: During 1989 Lords Test Hughes said to Smith after he played & missed:“You can’t fing bat". Smith to Hughes after he smacked him to the boundary: "Hey Merv, we make a fine pair. I can’t fing bat & you can’t f***ing bowl.”
-
Merv Hughes & Javed Miandad: During 1991 Adelaide Test, Javed called Merv a fat bus conductor. A few balls later Merv dismissed Javed: “Tickets please”, Merv called out as he ran past the departing batsman.
-
Merv Hughes & Viv Richards: During a test match in the West Indies, Hughes didn’t say a word to Viv, but continued to stare at him after deliveries. “This is my island, my culture. Don’t you be staring at me. In my culture we just bowl.” Merv didn’t reply, but after he dismissed him he announced to the batsman: “In my culture we just say f*** off.”
-
And of course you can’t forget Ian Healy’s legendary comment which was picked up by the Channel 9 microphones when Arjuna Ranatunga called for a runner on a particularly hot night during a one dayer in Sydney… “You don’t get a runner for being an overweight, unfit, fat c***!!!”
-
James Ormond had just come out to bat on an ashes tour and was greeted by Mark Waugh… MW : “F*** me, look who it is. Mate, what are you doing out here, there’s no way you’re good enough to play for England” JO : “Maybe not, but at least I’m the best player in my family”
-
McGrath to Ramnaresh Sarwan: “So what does Brian Lara’s d*** taste like?” Sarwan: “I don’t know. Ask your wife.” McGrath (losing it): “If you ever fing mention my wife again, I’ll Fing rip your F***ing throat out.”
-
Mark Waugh standing at second slip, the new player (Adam Parore) comes to the crease playing & missing the first ball. Mark “Ohh, I remember you from a couple years ago in Australia. You were st then, you’re fing useless now". Parore- (Turning around) "Yeah, that’s me & when I was there you were going out with that old, ugly slt & now I hear you’ve married her. You dumb c***”.
-
Yet another Australian witticism with this time porky Sri Lankan batsman Arjuna Ranatunga the victim. Shane Warne, trying to tempt the batsman out of his crease mused what it took to get the plump character to get out of his crease and drive. Wicketkeeper Ian Healy piped up,“Put a Mars Bar on a good length. That should do it.”
-
Malcolm Marshall was bowling to David Boon who had played and missed a couple of times. Marshall : “Now David, Are you going to get out now or am I going to have to bowl around the wicket and kill you?”
-
Fred Trueman bowling. The batsman edges and the ball goes to first slip, and right between Raman Subba Row’s legs. Fred doesn’t say a word. At the end of the over, Row ambles past Trueman and apologises sheepishly. “I should’ve kept my legs together, Fred”. “So should your mother” he replied.
Herb and the one are engaged?? I had no idea.
My number: 555-HERB.
My underwear are not available at this time. I only have the one pair and after the first month of wearing them it is almost like they became part of me.
Charlie, we haven’t set a date yet, but don’t worry, you are invited.
kitkat, here is another look at my undies, I think they support my data just fine.
Yep, no arguments there Herb. That’s a fine pair of undies. And I can see you are judicious about who else you let get into them.
