I was in "edit" mode when you posted that BTW, I hate spelling Nazis and "spellmar" is sooooo 2003

Why don't you try........ ..........nah, too easy

and she's rich

yea, the ugly girl next door

Yes, I compared it to individual nations tho. I didn't say Europe. You did. I thought that it would be unfairly grouping them to just say Europe Wait, how come you can group Europe together to compare it to the US, but I can't???? but about your point: I was in a rush and didn't address this as well as I wanted to: What I should have said it: almost America just didn't appear one day. All those people you talk about: Danes, Spaniard, Austrian, Greek, etc....they came here and brought all that culture and language with them. IIRC, Chicago is second to only Warsaw in terms of the city with the largest polish population. And there are even more Germans and Irish than there are Polish! The Almanac of American Politics 2004 states that "Even today, in Archer Heights [a neighborhood of Chicago], you can scarcely go a block without hearing someone speaking Polish". And thats just one city! So all that history, culture and traditions you speak of that seperates the people of Europe...that didn't just get wiped out when they came here. It remains. Except we also have lots of Asian, Hispanic, Muslim, and African American too. All these cultures remain, as do the languages. If your ever in Chicago I'll take Chinatown or Greek Town or maybe to the German or Polish sections. Maybe we'll go see the Puerto Rican day parade. Or the African American Pride Parade. Sure, it's obvious that we generally have one language to connect us all (tho if you go to a major city, you might not know it outside the touristy areas), but even that varies do to regional dialect. Which can be so heavy that I have trouble understanding everything. And of course, this is America, different cultures blend to become "americana". Where European countries, in my expirence, seem to be more focused on preserving their own cultures. So you see, it very possible that I can pick two random people from any European country (or hell, Europe) and two from America, and have the Americans be more different in culture and history. I mean, something tells me that a Cuban American from Miami and a Native Alaskan vary just a bit. And knowing is half the battle. Gooooooooooo Joe. I'm not defending the goverments response. Only saying most of those people arn't forming hunting packs and shooting to kill. Most are good people. You mean "poor" and "rich". Say hi to capitalism. It's not always pretty, but it stands the test of time well. tease I'll be gone for awhile, so if I don't respond, thats why

Welcome, Mr. "I have zero posts because all mine are in WoT" junai enjoy your stay

Wait till he gets to the part about the monthly fee.........

Please don't alter my meanings or put words in my mouth. I was simply implying that when you ask "What kind of society is this?", you have to know that there is a difference between people of this country. Just look at how we vote. While different senerios, this kind of thing didn't happen in NY during 9/11. I didn't suggest that you didn't. Just that your comments don't make that distinction. Much like you said mine don't. havn't been to the midwest, have you? For every "bad" story report, I promise you there is many more stories of some guy using his boat to rescue neighbors. Or people sharing food and water with those who need it more. You just have to dig a bit more for those. That, of course, doesn't excuse the bad. What do you want it to be

I'd do Grom (zing!), but Eldars got dibs: Well, if your going to make the mods an expansion, you need a ying to the yang (or vice versa, I forget which ones bad): jaguars4ever jaguars4ever has an attack of 5 (-2 for each "Mod" card in play) jaguars4ever has a defense of 3 (-2 if a "Mod" card is in play) jaguars4ever is a "Lovable Thread Derailer " type card Special powers: Twice per thread, jaguars4ever can invoke the "Prince of T.O.M.B.S." power and change the Attack or Defense power of any non-moderator card by +/- 1 for the remainder of the thread. For three "Strangely Hypnotic Laughing Avatar" tokens jaguars4ever can invoke " mini-semi-inviso-secret text!! " power, which allows all members to play thier powers regardless of any moderator power in play for 1 turn. No Moderator power can cancel this. For ten "Zing!" tokens jaguars4ever may play "Come Down to My Level" and cancel all moderator powers in play for 2 turns. His defense drops to 0 for 3 consecutive turns following this.

Fair enough, but when you and your gang of hooligans from Finland start to "bring it", you should realize that America is much larger and more diverse in most respects (good and bad) than your nations. So when you make a blanket statment about the US, it's alot like me making a blanket statement about Europe. Turn about is fair play and all that. What society? All of American society? We're one country, but we are very different states and people across this land. 1. N.O. is largely a "poor black city" fueled by tourism. I could find you some "poor white cities" in the south if you want. 2. Because many many guns stores we're prolly robbed. That, and it's the south. Everyone has a gun and a bible. Thats just what they do :shrug: I don't question the Italians about being able to legally pat a ladies butt I hate/love you

Then again, you come from near a place were they riot because of bad calls by a ref in a football match <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Our footballs fans are notoriously... peaceful, they're called "Roligans" for a reason. "Rolig" means calm, so I guess your jab at us wasn't as effective as you might have anticipated. Note that I said "Near You". I had no idea how the fans are in Denmark, I was referencing other spots in Europe. aka, Europe isn't some kind of magically peaceful place that isn't prone to dark moments. Hell, France to is having lots of racial issues currently. They just havn't had a big ole' flood in Paris yet.

Eldar doesn't make threats. He makes promises Everyone wishes we had a game to discuss. We're basically here because we like the company.

Donald Trump ......and Martha Stewert

I actaully had alot of fun saying those

Hostile much? I doubt this get offical sanction EDiT: dammmmmmn Eldar, you posted fast

I'd do it, but I have a feeling I'd suck at this

Then again, you come from near a place were they riot because of bad calls by a ref in a football match

Thats the spirit!

ouch what meet the press was that? I listen to it every Sun, our local news radio airs it, and I don't remember that EDIT: Just saw on CNN that Dr.Phil is counceling hurricane survivors.......

poll? and sure, why not. I'd have a problem with it if it was allowed in bars and resturants tho.

The mods should be in a new expansion pack. We would need a name for it to...
