[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by .h4ck [/i] [B]hey, it happened once, ran like 3 towns over :D [/B][/QUOTE] I'm surprized, most gay men have better taste than that:laugh: I'm also glad that so far nobody has acted stupid about the whole thing...yet. I have to agree with Radaghast tho, Fred Phelps makes me :sick:. I mean exactly how Christian is it to protest a funeral? :mad: Just because the person was gay doesn't mean you have to ruin their afterlife:mad: Did you know that guy even tried to protest Mr.Roger's funeral because the guy didn't address the question of homosexuality?:angry2: Yes, he was a Presbitarian minister, but for the love of everything, the guy ran a children's show on Public Television. He wasn't on TBN!:cussing: This is what needs to be done to those political people thinking of overturning the recalled ban:modrod: 'nough said. They're thinking of trying to do this in NEw York as well. I think that'd be a good idea because then my husband's Aunt and her partner could get married even tho they've been living together for 17 years.

[COLOR=purple]Well, [i]I've[/i] never lived in Georgia (i've heard you have to pay $500 a year to register your vehicle and driving in Atlanta is not your friend.), but I've had a few lay-overs at Hartsfield International. I've also visited once and stayed for the weekend. My husband lived there for about seven months. He was stationed at Ft.Gordon (which was named after a Confederate Civil War soldier) for AIT. Seemed like fun, but it's too humid for me (high 80's in May)[/COLOR]

Plastic surgery doesn't buy self-esteem or self confidence. It may buy friends, but who wants friends who only want you for your looks. Of course one of my friends want to get her thighs worked on, but she's married and has two kids, so maybe I can understand that. Except that she's only 24. In my humble opinion, I think [plastic surgery should only be done in extreme conditions. Or if it's like on those Extreme Make-over shows. Of course, you realy shouldn't think about plastic surgery if you're under 40 (except for this girl I know, but we're not going there.) since you still have time to grow out and learn to enjoy ypour body for what it is. Including those moles and lines. Ooh, I didn't read about the boobs! I can do so much with this!:laugh: I'm 5'4 164lbs and I have a size 40C. That's standard for a lady like me. On the other hand, my mother-in-law is 5'2 92lbs and a barelyA (my husband has more chest!) of course, that's standard for her. Then there's my aunt marty. She's 5'2 and has 44DD and back problems. Trust me, you're better off w/o them. You'll look funnier than I don't know what if you're dumb enough to get something like that being so skinny the way you are! And You're boobs won't sag either!:laugh:

?WE DECLARE that barring an individual from the protections, benefits, and obligations of civil marriage solely because that person would marry a person of the same sex violates the Massachusetts Constitution,? the court majority declared. Under a 1996 law, the federal government does not recognize gay marriages. One state, Vermont, allows same-sex civil unions. The key difference between civil unions and marriage is that benefits from civil unions would stop at the Massachusetts border while rights from marriage would extend across the country ? giving gay couples equality under federal laws for taxes, health and retirement benefits, among other areas. The Massachusetts court left the details of the issue to the Legislature, but advocates said the case took a significant step beyond the 1999 Vermont Supreme Court decision that led to civil unions in that state. Attorney Mary Bonauto, who represented the seven gay couples who sued the state, said the only task assigned to the Legislature is to come up with changes in the law that will allow gay couples to marry at the end of the 180-day period. Vermont-style civil unions would not be enough, she said, because that would fall short of marriage. A constitutional ban on gay marriage could not be enacted in Massachusetts until 2006 because it takes seveal years to change the state?s constitution. ?This is a very good day for gay and lesbian families in Massachusetts and throughout the country,? Bonauto said. But the issue may find a hostile audience in the Massachusetts Legislature, which has been considering a constitutional amendment that would legally define a marriage as a union between one man and one woman. The state?s powerful Speaker of the House, Tom Finneran of Boston, has endorsed this proposal. And Republican Gov. Mitt Romney criticizing the ruling, saying: ?Marriage is an institution between a man and a woman. I will support an amendment to the Massachusetts Constitution that makes that expressly clear. Of course, we must provide basic civil rights and appropriate benefits to nontraditional couples, but marriage is a special institution that should be reserved for a man and a woman.? A key group of state lawmakers also has recently been working behind the scenes to craft civil union legislation similar to the law passed in Vermont. At the national level, meanwhile, the U.S. House is considering a constitutional ban on gay marriage. And Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, promised to fight back, saying lawmakers should now consider a constitutional amendment ?to protect and safeguard marriage.? President Bush, although he believes marriage should be defined as a union between one man and one woman, recently said that a constitutional amendment is not yet necessary. OTHER RECENT RULINGS Gay and lesbian advocates had been cheered by a series of advances this year, including a U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down anti-sodomy laws, the ordination of an openly gay bishop in the Episcopal Church, and a Canadian appeals court ruling that it was unconstitutional to deny gay couples the same marriage rights as heterosexual couples. Belgium and the Netherlands also have legalized gay marriage. In addition to Vermont, courts in Hawaii and Alaska have previously ruled that the states did not have a right to deny marriage to gay couples. In those two states, the decisions were followed by the adoption of constitutional amendments limiting marriage to heterosexual couples. No American court has ordered the issuance of a marriage license ? a privilege reserved for heterosexual couples. The Massachusetts case began in 2001, when seven gay couples went to their city and town halls to obtain marriage licenses. All were denied, leading them to sue the state Department of Public Health, which administers the state?s marriage laws. A judge threw out the case in 2002, ruling that nothing in state law gives gay couples the right to marry. The couples appealed to the Supreme Judicial Court. The plaintiffs argued that barring them from marrying a partner of the same sex denied them access to an intrinsic human experience and violated basic constitutional rights. The state?s Attorney General?s office, which defended the Department of Public Health, argued that neither state law nor its constitution created a right to same-sex marriage. The state also said any decision to extend marriage to same-sex partners should be made by elected lawmakers, not the courts. [COLOR=red]I think that this is a good thing and I hope that more states will follow in Massachessette's lead. I believe that the difinition of marriage is between two people who love eachother reguardless of everything else. As a married person I don't feel that this lessens the vows between my husband and I. Hell I think that if this movement becomes a mainstream thing maybe the military will revoke the don't ask don't tell policy. Of course that's just my opinion. Part of the reason I put this up is to get some discussion going. But let's just remember discussion doesn't mean people bashing.[/COLOR]

More funny anime moments from your's truely: The monk in Princess Mononoke when he asks a guy "Is this soup or donkey piss. Sailor Moon moments are classics to me, and Tuxedo Kamen doing stupid stuff makes it even better. Sailor Moon Super movie- He's dressed up as [spoiler]Santa Clause and riding in a balloon float in a sleigh. Tuxedo Mask stands up and says. "Have a Merry Christmas and-" The rips off the costume and says" And a happy new Year!"[/spoiler] Of course, then he makes a stupid speech and loses the whole thing, but the snow dancer looks confused and that's funny as well. Sailor Moon SuperS movie-Tuxedo Kamen gets beat up by a Bon Bon baddie and some kids. Of course that's funny. The teddy Bear in the second Tenchi Muyo movie was funny. HIs quote was-Did we scare you, did we hurt you? We're so sorry! I've also seen episode 82 of InuYasha. That's hilarious! Also the episode (I don't know the number) where [spoiler] Sota has a crush on some girl and when he goes to school Kagome and InuYasha shout Bonzai! at him:laugh: [/spoiler]

Akita? How old are you in the first place? If you're like 18 or something you could probably join the military and get a whole new living hell. Drill seargents will help you with that. All joking aside tho. I moved back home on Saturday and into another Hell completely. My brother and my dad have never gotten along and things have just gotten worse over the years. My dad comes down every night when my brother comes home from his girl friend's house and starts yelling at him and my brother thinks about moving into his car. There are other things entirely, but I'm not allowed to talk about it. My mom gets caught in the middle of it. Once she tried to talk to my grandma (My dad's mom) about the whole thing and tried to get some support. My grandma said that she should try to be a good Christian wife and support her husband. In other words-abandon her son completely. I don't know about everyone else's religion (except for Justin's :) ), but[ [i]that[/i] comment didn't sound all that Christian to me.

[COLOR=purple]Okay, how far in the past are we talking about? Because if it was rather recent I'd have to start thinking that my husband died or something. That aside, I'd probably have to ask a few questions such as: What have you been drinking? What are you smoking and why don't you share? Or even, hold on, I think I should call and see if there have been any escapees from the looney bin. Of course there is the possibility that somethink like this could happen since everyone does have a few past lives. So you never know[/COLOR]

I'd like to thank you guys for helping me through this so far. I am [i]still[/i] trying to figure out how LA and Iraq are the same (notice there is no . between the L and the A) You know except for the vowels and such. Of course I'm not going to cheat on him. I was apart from Lincoln for a year when he was in Korea and neither of us did that. WHy would we bother now? I'm happy that I get to see him on the 20th of December until the 4th of Jauary, but I wish that the army would've given him more leave time. However there's that stupid rail load. Okay well, Thanks for the support.

Basically Thanksgiving in my family means that my dad and my papa come back up from their hunting camp(deer season) by the PA boarder to sit in the familyroom and watch football only taking a break to pee or eat and if it's at my Aunt Marty or Aunt Kathy's house they don't even have to take a break to eat. It also means that us girls will spend our time going from the kitchen to the TV (well, atleast Football loving me) and afterwards doing dishes then playing boardgames) My cousin will play video games and my brother will sulk his stupid head off. Of course it also means that the next day is the rushing Christmas shopping day. Who knows, by next year it could also involve me paying my brother to change my kid's diapers while I wait for my husband to call from IRaq. Oh yeah, and it also means that we get around a table, hope my cousin doesn't say an obnoxious prayer and eat stuff. However, last year was my first Thanks Giving married and away from home. That one involved pot roast, pumpkin pie and porn.:laugh: I'll take Christmas /Yule any day

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by cloricus [/i] [B]ChibiHorsewoman if it's any thing to you the statistics are on you're side by a long way, though I guess you should have known that this might have happened even before America invaded Iraq. The only good thing about it would most likely be the danger pay... Out of interest what rank is he? [/B][/QUOTE] [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by AutoKill [/i] He's an E4 or a Specialist. If he wanted to he could go for E5 since he has enough points. As for the danger pay-I heard somewhere that it might be cut since Bush budgeted wrong for the war. However, an E4's pay + hazardous duty pay and hardship tour is better than just E4 pay with BAH and BAS. But I'd still rather have him. And yes I know statistics are on my side. The guy is signal and works in a box. (I remind myself at least 2x every 1/2 hour about this.) [B]I hate to seem like the realist, but i think you should of known this would happen when you got together with a military man. So don't point your anger at the military. [/B][/QUOTE] I'm a realist as well. And yes I [i]did[/i] know that the whole going into war thing was a part of reality. I also knew as of this past April that Lincoln's (my husband) unit would be sent over to Iraq for troop rotation for the 4th ID troops stationed out of Ft.Hood. However we first thought that he'd only have to be there until November 2004 since that's when his enlistment is up. The fact that I won't see my husband for over a year because they've decided to make Iraq one of those places where you do a year long over-seas tour reguardless of your ETS (don't ask me what that stands for, I'm still trying to figure out how Louisiana and Iraq are alike) date. (Maybe it's Enlistment Termination...) That's why I'm angry at the Military. Not because I didn't know that something like being sent out was likely. And Fizz, thanx for the support so far. :)

Now that I think about it, screw the voting, I'm gonna move to Antarctica and get the penguins to vote me as their queen:laugh: All joking aside tho, I don't think my post was completely understood, so let me clarify it a little. (as clear as one can make something at 1:17 in the morning) What I meant was that one person can make a difference. Maybe if more people had taken the time to vote (and the population of Florida wasn't so damn old...j/k) Bush wouldn't have been made President. Of course, by the same token, he could've become president back in 2000, but it would've actually happened because he was voted for, not because people were having trouble counting. Maybe thinking of it that way you'd understand what I meant by if 50 out of 180mil didn't vote.

:therock: Maybe the Oompa Loompa self tan appeals to some of the population? As well, as A really bad bleach job. Who knows. I think I'll get a copy when I get back home and find out what it's really all about. Besides, before I found graphic novels in regular book stores I thought that's how all of them came because the place I usually got them had everything wrapped in plastic. All hail the Oompa Loompa Manga girl!:laugh:

[COLOR=red]I know this is probably a bit early, but I got bored and this came into my head. What would you give your favorite or least favorite anime/manga characters for Christmas (Chanuka, Kwanzaa, Yule, twelfth night-whatever)? here's a short run down for me: [b]Naraku[/b]-Some Air freshener's. That Pelt has to get stinky after a while no da! [b]Fuu (from RayEarth)[/b]-Some arrows and a lesson in decisiveness. [b]Hikaru(also of RayEarth)[/b]-A truckload of Coca Cola Classic. Kekeke. you think she's hyper now, wait until she finishes all this stuff! [b]Sesshomaru[/b]-A mirror, (maybe he doesn't know he goes out with his face like that?) And some Philosophy Shampoo and Conditioner in Cinnamon Buns. (Maybe he'll share;)) [b]InuYasha[/b]-Philosophy 3-in-1shampoo/conditioner stuff in White Chocolate Hazelnut. (incase anyone's wondering, I'm reading from a Sephora catolog while typing this) and maybe a new Haori. [b]Kagome[/b] $100.oo gift certificate to Sephora. [b]Kikyo[/b]-Snowman poop and the Demeter Sugar Cookie set [b]ChibiUsa[/b]-a one way ticket to the moon [b]Chiba Mamoru[/b]-the ashes of that damned olive green jacket [b]Acione (from RayEarth), Berusch, SailorLeadCrow, SailorAluminumSiren, CereCere and VesVes[/b]-Some pants,loads of pants.

[b]Zelgadis[/b]-a $30 jar of Aquolina Pink Sugar Body Mousse [b]JunJun[/b]-a new pool stick [b]PallaPalla[/b]-Some new dollies so she can pull their heads off [b]Jadeite[/b]- a space heater. [SIZE=3]Merry Whatever![/SIZE][/COLOR]

[color=darkviolet]What would you do if you got to meet your favorite and least favorite anime or manga characters, what would you do? How would you react? Would you,. upon meeting the character of your dreams, turn into a hopeless drooling mess of fan girl (or fanboy as the case may be) or would you glomp him or her for dear life?:eek: And what if you met your most hated character, would there be blood shed? A mallot? A duel to the death? Tell me! As for myself. [b]Favorite characters from anime[/b] first character-Sesshomaru For a while I'd most likely stand there like my brain went on vacation and forgot all about me. Then I'd glomp him, call him Fluffy san and play with his tail. After that we'd go clothes shopping and I'd make a few of my friends [COLOR=green]green[/COLOR] with envy. Second character-JunJun I wouldn't stand there like a half wit this time. Instead I'd just ask her to teach me some gymnastics and we'd shoot some pool. I would say nothing about the unfortunate ChibiMoon Guardian incident. [b]Most hated Character[/b] First character-ChibiUsa We'd play football, soccer, baseball, rugby, lacross and darts first. ChibiUsa would be the balls and at darts, the target. After that we can play fetch with my aunt's boxer/shepard/lab mix. ChibiUsa can play the part of the stick. Finally the day would end with a smoothie. ChibiUsa can play the part of the fruit. Second character-Relena whatever her last name is. I'd take her to the hairdresser and chop off all her hair. Give her a stylish bob, so she can't do anything with it. Then I'd force her to watch Platoon, Saving Private Ryan, We were Soldiers, Pearl Harbor, Barney and Friends the Movie and Elmo in Grouch Land. Finally, I'd do the only thing Hiiro could never accomplish. I'd kill her:devil: So, what are your plans?[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Kyo no Ryu [/i] [B]I would also have no one from Gavitation of any other gay charachters and you should no why. O.o [/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=purple]No, I don't think any of us know why. Maybe if you PMed some people, you could say? I think it's kinda ignorant to say such things personally. As for other characters I wouldn't consider rooming with: Sae Kashiwagi from Peach Girl. I know it's manga, not anime, but let me just explain it to ya. The girl is a back stabbing little beyotch! She'd end up wanting to immitate me, and pretend to be my friend then she'd tell lies about me to everyone in the apartment complex. And at school/work where ever. She'd have to learn how to fly quite fast because I'd pitch her off the roof of the tallest building. This would be because I don't take kindly to back stabbing little beyotches. Another choise of no roomie with me is Masao from Mars (since I'm staying on the Manga path) Sure, he's not bad looking, but he's a bit nuts. In other words, a psychotic killer. Yes, that's right a [b]killer[/b]! [spoiler]Dude killed his friend. He also tried to kill Kira and knocked over a girl in a mall (along with a group of people on the escolator) because she bumped into him.[/spoiler] With my luck I'd do something to piss him off as well. Another choice is Tiger's eye from SailorMoonSs. I don't know what it could be, the razor blade earrings, the face paint or the fact that he'd try to take my dream mirror, but something about him just creeps me out to no avail. And Of course there's NAkago from Fushigi Yugi. Okay, he's a bihsounen, but he's a damnably evil bishounen. I don't know if I'd end up dead, manipulated, tied up skered or even worse, That guy just freaks me out on so many levels.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by the_fizz [/i] [B][COLOR=royalblue]Hello and how is everything? I know we really don't know one another but I understand how you fell my brother-in-law (station also out of Fort Hood) is over there right now and is currently serving his year (due back in April). He left behind my sister and their three kids and she is always watching the news to see what is going on over there. She just hates it when the kids ask for their dad (that is when it hits her the hardest). I would tell you to love him every moment before he goes and know that 1 yr is now that long in the grand adventure we call life he will be home before you even know it. Best wishes and good luck out there, and im me if you need some one to talk to I am always ready to listen to a needy voice. THE FIZZ[/COLOR]:wigout: [/B][/QUOTE] My closest friend down here has 2 kids. Her husband was sent over to Iraq back in April, But due to family reasons he came back in June and was recently discharged. Anyway, whenever the five-year old would ask where daddy was we'd have to tell her that daddy was at work, because she's too young to understand war. (Thank God)

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by wiccansamurai [/i] [B]It's not illegal. Things that send you to a mental institution are not necassarily illegal, just grounds to make people realize you may need help. Suicide isn't illegal, schitzophrenia isn't illegal, but they can all land you in the "funny farm". [/B][/QUOTE] Well, you could send someone into an institution for comminting suicide, but I think that'd be [b][i]extremely[/i][/b] pointless since they're already dead and stuff. As for the cutting thing, maybe you should think about seeing a psychologist about this. I know that sounds like a cornball answer, but it could help. It usually helps to talk to someone about things like this.

My husband is in the 1st Cav Division's 13th Signal Battalion stationed at Ft.Hood Army base inTexas. But that's not why I'm posting. The thing is that he's being sent over to Iraq between February and March (gotta love army intelligence) to help out with troop rotation. I know it sounds like I'm jumping the gun a bit since deployment is three to four months away, but I'm really hating life right now. Especially since before this deployment he leaves for Ft.Polk LA in about 3hrs. (since Louisiana and Iraq have so many things in common:rolleyes: like you know, vowels in their names) so I'll be apart from him for a month. Then we're in NEw YOrk for Christmas and I stay up there and he goes back down to Texas and I don't see him until March 2005. (stupid year long tours of duty:mad: ) Well, yeah, that about sums it up here. I hate the military, I'm depressed and I needed this off my chest. Thank you for listening, Chibi Horsewoman [COLOR=darkblue]Military intelligence, what kind of oxymoron is that?[/COLOR]

*High fives Wiccan Samurai* I'm glad you told someone and got if off your chest in an IRL POV. Also, I;'m glad that it seemed we could all help in anyway possible. I wouldn't go after the dude tho, he still seems like someone who has Pez for brains. Also, I'm sad to say Crimson Spider is right. My mother-in-law went thru 3 abusive relationships. 1 with my brother-in-law's father 1 with my husband's father and one with my husband's step-dad. None of them are in the picture anymore, but its kinda crappy to know that women are more likely to get assulted by an acquintance then a stranger so you should definately learn to defend yourself. Sincerly, Chibi Horsewoman

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by cloricus [/i] [B] So in the end does it matter? You?re what; 1 in 180 million voters? Why bother, it?s not as if you?re vote even counts in the long run. [/B][/QUOTE] True, if one person out of 180 million people doesn't vote, that may not make a difference. But what if 1 person in each of the 50 states decided not to vote? Maybe that would make a slightly bigger difference. Who's to say. Okay, what if 1 person from every large city in the united states decided not to vote and then say about 2 people from every company in the military decided not to send in their absentee ballot (FYI, there is usually an average of 4 companies to each battalion, sometimes 5, of course I'm also going by the US Army, so....). Maybe now you're vote would make more of a difference ne? That's just my annoying way of putting this opinion in a slightly mathematical (and doing it @1:29 in the morning) point of veiw. BEsides, by thinking you don't count simply makes you begin to feel like less of a person. Since it just takes one grain of rice to tip the scale. I didn't vote last year for a reason, and I didn't vote this year because I didn't registar to vote in the State of Texas. Mostly because i could care less who runs Texas, since technically I'm a resident of New York. However, I am going to vote in 2004, if for no other reason than to get Bush out of office. I don't have a political party of choice, I just don't like the way the dude runs the country and has decided that Iraq is a year long tour of duty:mad: (of course, that could just be the Military itsself sohat do I know? Not to mention the fact that I fear if he remains in power for another 8 years Roe vs Wade will be extremely reduced and so will the part about separation of church and state. Of course, that's just my opinion since I consider myself a moderate liberal.

[COLOR=deeppink]Damned if I know. Okay, in the last episode of Sailor moon Stars, what did ChibiChibi turn into so EternalSailorMoon could fight Galaxia?[/COLOR]

[color=violet]What would you look like and what accessories would you come with? Oh and what would you be called as well? As for myself I'd be Chibi the anime crazed Horsewoman: I'd come as an 11.5 inch doll which could beat up any Barbie. I'd have light brown hair with blonde highlights and so on.(basically a much shorter version of myself:laugh: ) My outfit would be boot cut jeans and a t-shirt with a horse and some sneakers and half chaps. The accessories would be a professional looking riding habit (tan breeches, black dress boots, navy jacket and white blouse) I'd also come with a helmet and Timely the Key-chain Eating Standardbred mare. Along with tack. Bright purple Ford Explorer a.k.a. the DUOMOBILE and Domino, the Kleenex eatting Neko sold separately. [b]EDIT[/b]-upon reflection, I decided I needed something bigger.[/color]

Since you probably don't want to stop drawing. And these kids obviously have tiny little pez brains (that's what my friend and I called the stupid ppl in our AP Biology class) who can't be allowed to play outside by themselves. And they are obviously a few neurons short of a synaps as well, you should think of it this way. Some day a few years down the road when these people are all flipping burgers at some McDonald's somewhere you may be sitting in some office somewhere drawing comic books and making all these other jokers eat their words about doing stupid crap to you and you can make them into villains who get killed off by the hero or heroine. Hey I know it's a long shot, but it could happen. And don't worry, we're all here for ya.:)

Let's see pets-My list won't be that big because my fish died recently. Stupid fish:mad: Wahh, poor fishy swimming in the sewer all dead:bawl: Anyways I have a small fuzzy black and white kitten named Domino. And my parent's dog thinks of me as hers (I've never known any other dogs to do this) Her name is Fudd and she's a beagle. She's dumb as a box of hair too. Last time I was up there she jumped on the hide-a-bed and fell off. I also have a husband-or could that be considered a kid? I don't exactly have to feed him or give him walkies, Infact, the Army does that part for me.

Sailor Moon probably had some of the most hilarious moments I've ever seen in anime. However, most of them are in theoriginal version There was the episode in R when [spoiler]Usagi and Naru are talking about the new bracelet store which had opened up and Usagi mistakes Promise Ring for Pro Wresteling[/spoiler] The [spoiler]twister scene in SMS with professor Tomoe and the witches 4 (no longer witches 5 because Eudial got knocked off) was funny because Mimette kept talking to herself.[/spoiler]:laugh: And not that Eudial's [spoiler]demise was bad but the note that Mimette had left which said: Snail woman in the Station wagon should curl up and die (or something like that) was kinda funny.[/spoiler] As well as Eudial's reaction to the snails:excited:
