  1. Narcissism = 23.1% Machiavelliansim = 10.7% Psychopathy = 67.4% You guys are aware that Psychopathy is a lack of empathy or remorse it doesn't mean you're a loon? I was expecting a much higher score for my Psychopathy, I can honestly say I have a hard time relating to other people's emotions and I very rarely feel remorse.
  2. Yes, I know about that, my parents are Admirals in the Nebraska Navy, they got their "commissions" because they donated the State Christmas tree last year. They hand it out for pretty much anything. I read up about that a bit last fall. It turns out that the Queen of England is also an Admiral, among many others. There was a thread about it last year or the year before I believe.
  3. That seems like an EA trade mark. The two sports game I play from them NCAA Football and Fight Night feel exactly the same, predetermined. It doesn't matter what you counter with the AI has already stopped it, or if it hasn't the algorithm kicks in and denies any success on your part even though all the animation clearly show you caught the ball/slipped the punch, made a tackle/landed a KO.
  4. One year ago today I weighed 260lbs after a weekend bachelor party in KC and stuffing my face at Fogo De Chao. Today I checked in at about 238. I feel pretty good considering I took off September through February, and I've basically been trying to regain muscle and strength since. Now that it's finally getting nice out I can focus on cutting again and get back on my bike and jog a little. I've still got a lot of work to do before I'm satisfied.
  5. That's not Nebraskan/Midwesterny, that's just being an idiot. Then you need to get out, because anyone who is from a county lower than 2 say it constantly. And it drives me nuts.
  6. I seen: The incorrect usage of the phrase "I saw" or "I have seen". Examples: I seen that movie before. I seen him an hour ago.
  7. Swearing aside, he is a really bad news anchor. Atrocious is what I would say.
  8. No... But I'm not in charge. So I guess you can...
  9. I have way too many dream cars. Camaros, Vettes, Lambos, Ferraries, Mercs, BMWs, '69 Charger, Cudas. If it's a beautiful or just stupid fast car I want it. But If I had to drive just one car the rest of my life it would be this: Simply the most beautiful car my eyes have seen yet. I just hope the saying you should never meet your heroes isn't true...
  10. The previous owner of my car did. (I removed them.)
  11. end of the article: It's vandalism in essence. A 64 year old man should know better.
  12. It could just be an aftermarket hood . . . mine wasn't a WS6 but I had the same hood. It could be but not many people take the time to put the Ram Air badge on the hood.
  13. I'd go with everything after. There may still be human interest stories that people want to share.
  14. Was that a random train of thought or something?
  15. No, he still has rights. Even a foreign national has rights under our system. If we disregard our system because we are mad, then they really have won. Our expectation of rights is the core of what makes the United States of America what it is. If we toss those rights out the window now, the slippery slope will really become a scary thing. This was a criminal activity, not the actions of a foreign government, or organization. Read him his rights, let him have a lawyer, and make damn sure everything is done right. Cross the 'T's dot the 'i's and make damned sure this is an airtight case. Agreed. This kid still deserves his rights. We've seen a terrible erosion of basic rights masked as "security" over the last decade. Bush started the trend, and all of Obama's "hope and change" bullsh#t was nothing but rhetoric. I have no illusions that our government would like any different with Kerry, Gore, or McCain in the Whitehouse during this timeframe. I just hope people wake the hell up, because we're giving away our rights and freedoms (hello 2nd and 4th amendments) for a false sense of security. First of all there's already a thread for that. Second don't worry about you're 2nd amendment rights. Nobody wanted to take them away to begin with. But you don't need to worry either way because your representatives are most likely taken care of by the gun lobby.
  16. I agree that it gets tricky but do not agree that it's an easy, black-and-white situation. The name escapes me at the moment but I'm thinking of the guy who joined Al-Qaeda and was taken out by a drone and thus didn't get his due process. I don't think you should be able to "hide" behind citizenship to actively plot against the US. You're right it's not black and white, but he was also on foreign soil and well known to be allied with a sworn enemy of the country. They've already set the precedent I guess and I'm not sure how I feel about that situation. I know where I stand in this case though. Really what advantage is gained by with holding his rights, he still doesn't have to say anything. Barring torture, you'd never get anything out of him either way if he's a true nutcase hardliner.
  17. So it came about because of a foreigner... I'm usually not a person to clamor on about our rights being taken away and what not, but when you start denying U.S. citizens rights well that's one slippery slope we shouldn't be going down.
