  1. My party? My party? What is my Party? Have you not read that I consider myself an Independent? If you have missed that, I can;t be sure of anything you think you say

  4. anyone can read a story, well, almost anyone, you do have to have a measure of volume and clarity. There is the telling of stories by memory, and my good friend Pierre has the following in his repertoire. This list is a must "hear" at summer camp and the boys request them by name The Cremation of Sam McGee Casey at the Bat The Bugville Nine The Ballad of William Sycamore Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening The Voyageur The Sons of Molly McGuire Rainy Day at Camp Little Bateste If* Monster Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald When Pirre gets rolling, he is a sigh
  5. I am not sure I would need a guideline to quote other other than shooting acorns and the like at other people is not very scoutlike at a pack event or other venue As far as "Punishment" at the next unit meeting levels of behavior have to be established and I am not talking about writing rules, just establishing that an action causing pain and possible injury is not a good idea, under any circumstances

  7. I went to Philmont this summer, had a great time, but is was not what I would call a "mountain top" experience, and that was even with climbing Baldy up the gully trail. Perhaps its because I have backpacked the Grand Canyon, Glacier National Park, Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. I have been west before and Philmont looks like the west. Its great and I had a great time but I have other things I want to experience as well. A trip up at Northern Tier, a trek at Sea Base, Being at the National Jamboree, such potential for so many experiences. One would think a group of Scouters would
  8. I said 1960, not the 50's and do you think the shinanigans in Chicago voting ended then? Indeed, are you willing to say all Democrats everywhere are totally above reproach and would never do anything to steal any election? Is that a horse you think you can ride? I beleive in scouting, but I am not willing to say everyone who is a member of the BSA upholds 100% of our ideals 100% of the time. All humans have their frailities and to be blinded by that is not being realistic Do we want to get into a corruption citation war? Sorry, I could be on both sides and give reams of ma
  9. I, or at least my good friend Pierre, will be staffing at the Buckskin Games. Anybody else on staff and where and who is going so far?
  10. What? No shortage? It was all a plot by the Duke brothers to increase the futures price of pork bellies? Where is Louis and Billy Ray when you need them?
  11. Would never say JFK was not brave, he was reviled as being a papist and many other things Just a question, does evolve and "flip-flop" mean the same thing, just depends on whose candidate is evolving/Flip-floping?
  12. I don't know what the statue of limitations is on voter fraud but if you want to talk voter fraud you must start with the place where the phrase "Vote early and often" was coined, as in Chicago, a Democratic stronghold since, well, forever It was often said Mayot Richard J Daley, the original "Hizzoner" and not the pale imitation his son became, was responsible for JFK's election in 1960 as the vaults and graves everywhere in Chicago opened and the dead all voted straight Democratic tickets. Or are we saying the Democrats have not cheated since 1960? Saying either side is clean
  13. No wonder Obama wouldnt meet with Netanyahu, it would be improper to talk politics with an Iraeli when your mind is on makin' bacon!
  14. awhile back we had a kid transfer in from a "scoutreach" troop. Very Poor, or so the parents always said. Active family though, mother an asset on the comittee and father a strong asst scoutmaster. Always needed help for summer camp money wise though. Always had old rusted cars and marginal equipment. Then at one meeting another scout just back from DisneyWorld started talking about his favorite ride, and the poor kid chimes in on where his favorite rides were and where the best places to eat was and where he just had to go "every time we go to Orlando, and did you go to Sea WOrld, we always d
  15. he does understand that you are not happy about his behavior during the incidents you describe right?
  16. I can assure you he is not Catholic
  17. I would think THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO! would be perfecvt, even better if they could move arms and legs in a stiff almost marionette puppet like action Having them come up with it is, of course, the best course
  18. I thought I would give an answer to the quesiton asked, a novel concept I know, but I gave an answer to a specific question
  19. I can understand the passing out of the morning after pill I guess. Certainly dont think its a good idea but society, for some reason, doesnt ask me my opinions on much. I would think that after sone number, say 3 or so, 3 times the patient asks for the morning after pill that some sort of consequence occur. Counseling, education, torture (just kidding) something that demonstrates that actions do have consequences. Was there sex going on in the High School I graduayed from? ALmost certainly although I don't know from personal experiene but I did know what caused pregnancy as did
  20. heck, thats easy Clear and Present Danger
  21. I understand this group has difficulty with focus. I have often used Forest Gumps feather as an illustration of how a thread meanders, herding cats is another, although over used cliche What would be G W's legacy if Iraq had used weapons of mass destruction in a Terrorist attack?

  23. The peace treaty that ended the first Iraq war called for UN weapon inspectors to visit the country. Iraq refused, it was this refusal, this not following the Peace treaty that lead to the UN resolutions. If Iraq did not have anything to hide, why did they refuse the UM inspectors access to the country? If Saddam thought that he would be seen as a hero for standing up to the UN by refusing the UN weapons inspectors entry into his country, he was also betting the Western World would not have the guts to follow up with all the resolutions. Now, lets not cloud the issue, what was my first i
