Okay before we begin can we take a close look at the facts and not call anyone a racist bigot? I have no racist tendencies whatsoever! In fact two of my nephews are biracial and I love them dearly. Now that my motives are...

stanleyws There is nothing remotely American (that is, most importantly and relevantly - CONSTITUTIONAL!!) about double standards. Is that too much to ask of our out-going President? Gitfiddleplayer, are you an American?

stanleyws Two points make this argument of yours rather unfair. First, the media didn't decide Obama's ethnicity. Yes, he has both Kenyan and Kansan heritage. But, in the 1950's deep south, if you were *one* percent black, you were a "less than" - you sat over *there*,...

So, what exactly was the *very* first manifestation of consciousness. Where (in space AND time!) did it occur? Did it happen a trillion years ago? Did it happen a trillion light-years away? In other words, where and when did...

stanleyws Another post that, although provides no definitive answer (which of course, I didn't really expect to find), somebody gets what I'm asking. Older than dirt - ha ha! Very clever!! ;)

stanleyws Love this, love this, LOVE THIS!!! I'm still sipping on it, so to speak, and haven't completely absorbed or comprehended it. Wow - now you've got me wondering stuff like "is there an absolute density" like there's an "absolute 0" (-459.63 degrees on the...

stanleyws Nah - those are inane and boring questions. What's your sign? Is Britney finished? Did you vote for McCain or Obama? Zzzzzzzzzzzzz....... I appreciate the hand on the shoulder, and there's know way you could know this, but I'm no newbie to myLot. I've...

stanleyws Well, to be blunt, I'm guessing they don't think they have to do that. Why would (a republican, let's say) come forward to say they did not find what they were trying to find - ie, dirt. Hell, I'll bet the Hillary Clinton team did their fair share of looking...

stanleyws Heh heh. I might use that term too, in my more - ahem - "spirited" moments/mood, if it weren't so cliche'. Just so you know, I wrote this response prior to our back and forth further down the thread. My sentiments are the same - but maybe my tone would...

stanleyws You know something? I got arrested for falling asleep in my car on a community college campus. The officer said "you know you're trespassing" don't you? I said "no - I didn't know.." and the conversation somehow continued until he said "look - you want to ask...

stanleyws Ughh....and then I see your next post. Well, thanks for the kudos where they were, spalladino. And no - I will NEVER EVER get the "unwritten rules" in any area of life. It completely sucks - and I have to be a pit bull to survive. I didn't learn that until...

stanleyws I wasn't loaded for bear at all! And the only reason my feathers were so ruffled lo those many many months ago is because the letter of the law (or "standards" or whatever) is just that and should be reliable. I'm a VERY VERY literal person, for clinical...

stanleyws Then why jump in? My beef? I was responding to a discussion. Why can you but not I? This is what I'm talking about. I was "making nice" if by that you mean complying with the stated (written) rules. So, I had something quite relevant to add to this very...

stanleyws No, this is not paranoia. Geofty is right. I know more than one person who has been banished and/or exiled not for breaking any clearly articulated rule, but because of the subjective whining of certain prudes who wish certain people still stayed at home...
