[quote name='Annalisse][color=darkslategray]"Bootysim"...O.o. It sounds to me like your brother and his friend[s'] are just lonely fellows, and very bored lonely fellows at that. How in any way, shape, or form is that a religion, haha. Please don't take that personal, Chibi. I mean nothing by it. It's just that the whole idea (and that's what it is) is amusing.[/color][/quote] [color=darkviolet]YOu don't need to tell me that it's not a religion just a strange idea. It's not even my strange idea. I think this idea was brought up with help of drugs alcohol and maybe Romanian food. But they're not lonely, my brother has a bi-polar girlfriend that he doesn't want me talking to...as for boredum...maybe he shoudl try cleaning his room or doing laundry instead of creating religions...even ones that involve killing bugs. So no problems here...just don't blame me when bootyists come knocking on your door and asking to touch [i]your[/i] booty.[/color]

[color=darkviolet]Oh, did anyone catch the Tonight Show on Monday night? Jay Leno did a tribute to Carson and he had Ed McMan and Drew Carey among others on his show along with clips from the tonight show with Johny Carson. I flipped to CBS where David Letterman has the Late Show and he was just doing regular programming. It kind of gave me a bit of a shock. Does anyone know if he did a tribute show Tuesday?[/color]

[quote name='maladjusted'] :) Anyways, I'm Korean (obviously) and I'm proud to say...I eat kimchi on a daily basis. :3 It is quite good if you Americans get used to the smell. XD Excuse the discrimination, there. [/color][/quote] [color=darkviolet]Eh, I actually kind of really like Kimchee. My husband got me hooked on it after he came back from South Korea doing his over seas tour. (He was stationed at Camp Red Cloud in the city of Vi Jong Bu (sp?) ) I'm just trying to find out why the pickled cabbage takes on a strange pink tint. And why so many Chinese resturaunts in Killeen TX have it. Yeah, that's where I first tried kimchee, China Star on Trimeer in Killeen, TX near the Wal*MArt. I also know that I don't want to eat kagoge and there's a slight mispronounciation that could have you eating [spoiler]Dick[/spoiler] and rice instead of vegatables and rice. Oh and Bulgoki is really good too. PS, I have this big manwa book that's all in Korean..if I scan a part could someone translate? Anyways, on to my heritage: According to my background on my adoption certificate I'm Irish Native American. My parents (adoptive) are both IrishGerman. We don't do too many of the German traditions...actually I don't know any German traditions. But we [i]do[/i] celebrate St. Patrick's day with corned beef, cabbage :twitch: boiled potatoes and beer. Which can lead to :fart: and :sweat: at least at my house. It can also lead to my brother drinking the white vinager meant for the cabbage because he thought it was water...long story. My hubby and my daughter are hienze 57 people (ie they're Irish, German, English and Native American). Ok, that's enough. Chibi horsewoman[/color]

[quote name='Shugo54][COLOR=Navy][FONT=Book Antiqua]No, you are mistaken. What your brother created is called a cult. [/FONT'] [/COLOR][/quote] [color=darkviolet]You say that now, but wait until he tries to say you should join him...[i]wait[/i] Yeah, I guess that's kind of a cult. Actually I'd just call it an over active immagination. An over active imagination brought on by drugs and alcohal...mostly drugs...and maybe Andy Cap's Hot Fries.[/color]

[quote name='MehrLicht'] hm, i didnt know it was make flash judgements on Mike's character day. well for starters im not a punk. I dont place labels on myslef and dress like a member of a social group. I am completely open minded about my music; in fact im the only person i know who owns/ listens to CD's of symphony orchestras and African Tribal music. [/quote] [color=darkviolet] Hi, I'm Megan, and I will be giving my rebuttal tonight. I wasn't saying that [i]you[/i] were a 'punk' I just meant that you [i]reminded[/i] me of the kids that say they're 'punk' and therefore get to decide what's good and what's not. Sorry you took it that way. I don't place lables on myself either, I think it's stupid and exspensive..and really hard when you wear a size 16. And I'm open minded about my music too, Broadway musicals share space with Country, death metal, pop punk, head ache punk, Disney sound tracks, movie sound tracks and gasp! Avril Levign! However, you didn't seem too open minded when you made your statement about how since Lost Prophets came to america they've become 'sell outs'. Why is it that whenever a band (especially a punk band) becomes popular they're sell outs? Ahh! Just shoot me![/color] [QUOTE=MehrLicht] So with that aside... I have never been one to blame things on America. However, The sudden Wave of popularity LostProphets recieved led to them being the kind of band where somoene hears their two singles and goes and buys three T shirts without once thinking "hm, maybe i should listen to them more first..." And i said this is America's fault cus of the oh so wonderful UPSTART BANDS craze going through MTV and FUSE right now. In 2004 with the release of START SOMETHING LostProphets was tossed around everywhere as an "upstart band," which meant everyone played them EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME. THE BAND FORMED IN FREAKING 97 AND RECIEVED UK ACCLAIM ABOUT A YEAR AFTER! They sold out COUNTLESS concerts in the years before they came out with their first album in 2001 (fake sound of progress). And then America decides to call them an upstart band just cus WE have never heard of them??? That, ladies and gentlemen, is the fairy tale of how America ran LostProphets into the ground. [/QUOTE] [color=darkviolet] I do agree with you about the upstart band thing. I remember buying New Found Glory's [b][i]THIRD[/i][/u] album at Target and it was being called an up and coming band, my husband, his friends and I were all but rolling on the floor laughing about this, but hey $7.00 cd! Good Charlotte and Evenecessence, same thing. Ok, so I didn't hear of Evenecessence until the Dare Devil soundtrack, but I

[ [quote= Shugo54] hmmmmm, well I created my own religion. well it's not a religion it's just a new way of believing in stuff. My religion bases itself on Nature and Animals. It also has reincarnation. The main philosophy behing it is that" Every action has a positive and negative Effect" so basically everything you do is good and bad. I have 5 Animal Deities and 2 gods/goddese's.the sun god and the moon godess. my religion (which has no name) is a mix of everything I have liked about religions. It's my oen way of thinking. each religion has it's flaws and good points so i decided to make one that I will like to follow.[/quote] [color=darkviolet]My brother and his friends did the same thing. They call their religion Boodyism (I think that's how it's spelled.) From what my brother tells me the religion is all about squishing ants and touching booties. I don't know what else it involves. Your religion kind of sounds like a form of eclectic paganism...[i]very[/i] eclectic paganism. While we're on the topic of making up religions and combining beliefs, I'm thinking of integrating the Satanist belief that your birthday is a holiday into my beliefs that good and evil coexist in everything and that you have to take responsibility for your actions. I think that's because I like to celebrate myself because I am part of the divine. Ok, I think this is still on topic...I ended up talking with a Jehova's witness today while I was in radiology with my daughter. She wasn't pushy and she really knew her bible passages. It was a very interesting conversation. I even learned why they don't celebrate birthdays, Christmas or Easter. However, it doesn't quite sound like my type of religion. However, it was nice to get some insight into another religion with out being interrupted while I'm doing something.[/color]

[quote name='MehrLicht'] That really makes me sad, how ruined and Sold-out overpopular LostProphets is now. America and her retarded thirst for nothing but punk music all of a sudden has completely ruined this talented UK band. No one knew who they were when their first album hit, "THE FAKE SOUND OF PROGRESS." If you came up to someone with one of those retarded black skull shirts thats says "we still kill the old way..." on it and asked them which they liked better, "Kobrakai" or "Ode To Summer," theyd probly do nothing but stutter at you for about two minutes.[/quote] [color=darkviolet]It makes me really sad when people say some band is sold out just because so many people listen to them. And then you blame the US on top of it. Damn, I didn't kow it was our fault that some bands suddenly became more popular.... You sound like all the other 'punk' kids over here that think they decide what's punk and what isn't and what's good and what's not...get over yourself. Oh look, I have to go do something more important.[/color]

[color=darkviolet]Yeah, I figured it probably did after I posted this thread, but hey, you never know. Thanks for your time Chibi Horsewoman.[/color]

[color=darkviolet]I was on a message board a while back that had a place to post strange but true news and have other people comment on it. I don't know how well it woudl work here, but I figured I'd suggest it anyway. Maybe the Otaku Lounge already serves such a purpose, but I figured I could at least try to make the suggestion. Thank you. Chibi Horsewoman[/color]

[color=darkviolet]I'll have to send this thread to Lincoln if I get online with him tomorrow. I think he may have had an experiance like this before. The closest I've had to a strange meditation is during ritual when I kept getting a large red dragon by a tree in my sacred space. I don't know what kind of tree it was. all I remember is that we were sending energy to soldiers looooong story. Yeah, ok, now I sound weird. I had a semi out of body experiance about 12 years ago when my grandpa died. I fell asleep on the couch in the family room and kept hearing voices...turns out it was the relatives from my dad's side of the family. They had been in the dining room talking. I really should meditate more but lately all I want to do is sleep...I should poke myself for that.[/color]

[color=darkviolet]It's 9:32PM EST, time for another thread. :D I'm in the middle of watching Desperate Housewives right now and I noticed that there hasn't been a thread on this show yet...so I figured I'd make one up. I don't watch the show on a regular basis. But from what I understand the show gets started when one of the neighbors (Mary Alice) commits suicide and nobody knows why. Then there's a few other stories sprouting off. [spoiler]Like one of the women (Gabriel) is having an affair with her gardener (and I really don't blame her because he's hot, but it's stil wrong) and he just asked her to marry him since her husband is in jail for embezzelment I think[/spoiler] There's another one who has four kids and then one who's seeing a guy that's pretending to be a plummer. Then there's Eddie. I keep hoping something bad will happen to her since she seems like such a [spoiler]B[i]tch[/spoiler]. But those two are having the most easy on again off again of it. The fifth one (good Goddess, I can't remember anyone's name but Eddie's) [spoiler]her husband just broke up with her...kind of. He was having an affair as well with some really snotty woman. Then he had a heart attack and something else so he had to move back in with the wife...oh and their kid got drunk (he's underage) and hit Gabriel's mother-in-law who was staying with them because she suspected the woman of cheating.[/spoiler] The show is really great from what I've seen at least. I like how the story just gets more and more twisted episode by episode. So, has anyone else seen it? and if so would you please share your comments on it?[/color]

[color=darkviolet]Okay, here's the whole story from CNN.com. I even copied and pasted it so all ya'll can read it here. [b]Johnny Carson, late-night TV legend, dies at 79 Sunday, January 23, 2005 Posted: 5:23 PM EST An estimated 50 million people watched his final broadcast in 1992. (CNN) -- Johnny Carson, host of NBC's "The Tonight Show" for nearly 30 years, died Sunday of emphysema. "He passed away this morning," Carson's nephew, Jeffrey Sotzing, told CNN. Carson, a longtime smoker, was 79 and had announced in 2002 that he was suffering from the disease. Carson was host of the late-night talk show from October 1, 1962, to May 22, 1992, taking over from Jack Paar and handing off to Jay Leno. "The Carson show changed your life," comedian Joan Rivers said. "If Carson liked you, you were set. He got the bright comics. He picked the ones who were different, who were smart." Born John William Carson on October 23, 1925, in Corning, Iowa, he is survived by his fourth wife, Alexis, and sons Christopher and Cory from his first marriage, to Joan "Jody" Wolcott. Another son, Richard, died in a car accident in 1991. Despite decades on television, Carson was never open publicly with the details of his personal life. "Nobody knew him," said Rivers, who often substituted for Carson as a "Tonight Show" guest host. "He was very private." Carson began his show business career as a teenage magician and ventriloquist before serving in the Navy during World War II. After the Navy, he attended the University of Nebraska, graduating in 1949 with a bachelor of arts degree. While still in college, Carson took a job as an announcer with KFAB in Lincoln, Nebraska, and two years later moved to Los Angeles, California, where he took an announcer's job at KNXT-TV. A year later, the boyish-looking budding comedian had his own show -- "Carson's Cellar" -- 15 minutes of poking fun at the news, on which Carson persuaded stars of the 1940s and 1950s to appear for free. In the midst of the show's run, famed clown Red Skelton hired Carson as a writer -- and even put him on as host on live television when Skelton was injured during a rehearsal. "The Johnny Carson Show" spent 39 weeks on CBS in 1955 and 1956, then he moved to New York, where he was host of ABC's quiz show "Who Do You Trust?" and met Ed McMahon, who became Carson's sidekick until Carson retired from "The Tonight Show" 35 years later. Under Carson, "The Tonight Show" earned 42 Emmy nominations and won seven trophies. Carson picked up a Golden Globe nomination in 1975, three years after moving the show from New York to Hollywood. Carson was inducted into the Television Hall of Fame in 1987. An estimated 50 million people watched his final broadcast in 1992. "And so it has come to this. I am one of the lucky people in the world. I found something that I always wanted to do and I have enjoyed every single minute of it," Carson said to close his final show. "I bid you a very heartfelt goodnight." Carson's departure led to a bitter battle to replace him, between David Letterman, whose "Late Night with David Letterman" followed "The Tonight Show" on NBC's schedule, and frequent guest host Jay Leno. Leno won and remains the host; Letterman jumped to CBS, where he is host of "The Late Show." President George H.W. Bush awarded Carson the Medal of Freedom on December 11, 1992, and the following year he was awarded the Kennedy Center Honors Lifetime Achievement Award. "He was kindness personified," said Dr. Joyce Brothers, who said she appeared on Carson's show about 90 times.[/b] He was truely a very talented man. And will be missed by many, myself included. [/color]

[color=darkviolet]Well, I'm flipping through channels waiting for the playoffs to begin and I hit 1-3 (13) which is on of the news channels where I live. They have a special Report that Johnny Carson has died at the age of 79. For those of you who may not know Johnny Carson was the original guy on the Tonight Show before Jay Leno and he helped both Jay Leno and David Letterman get their start. There aren't too many more details out right now, but I'll update when I find them. So, a moment of silence for Johnny.[/color]

[quote name='Drix D'Zanth'] Look at Kerry.. he was against gay marriage, but he didn't take any action against it because "he didn't think the govn't should be involved." I smell BS, since when didn't he want governmental involvement (think socializing basically everything...)? My guess, his backers just didn't want him touching that issue, it wasn't the Democrat's way of dealing with that.[/quote] [color=darkviolet] Yeah, it [i]can't[/i] be because Kerry thinks that the government shouldn't get involved in people's personal lives. It's all a big conspiracy theory. Get over it. Some people have to deal with the fact that this is a Judeo Christian country and others have to deal with the fact that maybe some politicians just don't think that the government has any business telling people what they should and shouldn't be allowed to do. It's not because of what political party the guy is associated with. Hell, I consider myself more Democrat than republican, but I think that if someone kills soemone and theyre's solid evidence that the person who is suspected did it then take him out back and shoot him. Of course I'm also pro choice so...yeah, that thread is somewhere else.[/color] [quote name='Drix D'Zanth']Sure, Bush has made some people angry. But to protest his innaguration? He was voted by the people, and we need to respect the people's decision. Those protesters at DC aren't just protesting Bush, they are basically protesting my vote for him. Hey, free speech, doesn't really bother me... but if they want someone to blame for getting Bush into office, they probably shouldn't lay it on him. [/quote] [color=darkviolet] Well, maybe in the end the Republican party just ran a better campaign...ok that's obvious sicne we have a republican president. And since it would take too damn long and too much money to go and protest everyone who voted for Bush not to mention the fact that who people voted for is private of course they're going to protest the president. You can't say yes, I'm for freedom of speech one minute then complain the next when someone says something you don't like (ie protesting a guy you voted for) That's the thing with freedom of speech that I learned in my US History class back in 11th grade..I may not like what you have to say, but I will let you say it. That's why klan members are allowed to have rallies and not be arrested. You just got to love America! Oh, and Bush may have won a second term in office, but not [i]all[/i] the people voted for him. I know I didn't. But hey, I wish him luck. Drix, if you ever want to debate anything, you know where to find my yahoo screenname[/color] [quote name='Japan_86][COLOR=Navy']If they don't like Bush for the war, here's an interesting fact. There's 100,000 soldiers in Iraq, while 400,000 police in the state of California. My teacher says that there is just about the same amount of violence in California as there is in Iraq.[/COLOR][/quote] [color=darkviolet]Not to sound immature, but as my husband would say, your teacher needs a poking. Ok, so there may be as much violence in California (or New Jersey for that matter) as there is in Iraq, but it's not on the same level as the violence in Iraq. Nobody takes a bunch of national guardsmen in California and shoots them execution style. And nobody does a bunch of car bombings on schools in California. Iraq is not California and California is not Iraq. No, I'm not blaming Bush for the insurgents doing all that stupid crap in Iraq. How was he to know that people could be that violent even after 9/11? But I think that the methods were a bit off. I don't think he thought it through long enough and I don't think he learned too much from seeing what happened in Afghanistan, even if there hasn't been as much opposition in Afghanistan as there is in Iraq. It's like burning a candle at two ends, starting two wars is never really a good idea. And don't even get me started on how the National Guard troops are over there for longer than the enlisted men and women even though they don't have the same kind of experiance asw the enlisted men and women and are experiancing more casualties because of it. Now all I have to do is dig myself a whole and live there for the next four years, Chibi HOrsewoman[/color]

[color=darkviolet]You have to explain why. If you don't I'll request a closure faster than you can type ' I want to have INuYasha as a roommate because he's soooooo hot!!!!!!!!' Yes, I know we did this thread before...I think I initiated it. But it's dead now and too long gone to be revived. So I'll start again. [b]the uh nuhs[/b] First and foremost will always be CHibiUsa from sailormoon. The girl is pure evil I tell you. She's so annoying (whether voiced by Kae Araki or whomever did her NA dub) it'd be time for ChibiUsa smoothies with all natural ingrediants in no time. Or maybe we'd just see if she could fly. Next are two characters from Princess9 simply because they're all I can think of right now. Yuki is the first one. She's such a nit wit she'd probably throw herself out the window before I did it for her for stealing my makeup. Or spending her half of the rent on getting tanned. Then Izumi. Yeah, she did confess to Ryo about Tagasuki, but before that she was such a witch with a capital B! I don't like how she's so nasty to everyone even when she's supposed to help them. Izumi, welcome to my no List. Vash the stampede from Trigun...well yeah he's a nice guy. But 's a bit of a freak. And what if something happened like he had to go kill people and he started not talking. Or even worse if Knives stated messing with him. Those guns aren't cool. Plus he's a doughnut snarfer. [b]Okay, you can stay[/b] So far the only one on the list right now is Ryo from Princess9. She knows how to cook, even if it is just oden. Plus she seems like a nice person. Even if her dad did die (and they never said why) and she seems to have relationship issues. I can't think of any more right now since I'm a bit hungry. I'll probably add more later, after everyone else.[/color]

[QUOTE=Japan_86][COLOR=Navy]Chibi, you and a couple of my teachers been complaining about the costs of this event. I mean, this is a tradition. Would you complain if it was Kerry getting the inauguration instead of Bush. That being a tradition, there would be an inauguration for the president regardless of it being their second term. Look at Clinton, did you truly feel that way about him? [/COLOR][/QUOTE] [QUOTE=James][color=#811C3A]I just wonder whether or not your objection actually relates to the cost factor itself, or because you simply don't want to reward Bush in any way. lol I mean, the figure isn't exactly small, but I have to admit that the cost was a lot smaller than what I'd expected. That is particularly due to the fact that far more frivolous events in the United States have incurred much higher costs.[/color][/QUOTE] [color=darkviolet]My brain isn't working properly because I haven't gotten 8 hours of unintterupted sleep since I think November 2003 so that's why the quotes aren't separated, so give me some credit for knowing what I'm talking about...I hope. I was only 15 when Clinton was reinaugurated so asking me how I feel about the costs of those balls back in 1996 (that just sounded so wrong) is a bit irrelevent since I wasn't paying much attention to [politics in 1996 and I can't remember too much of what happened outside of my personal life then. Yeah, I think spending too much money when peopel can't even afford to buy medication and don't know how long Social Security will be around is quite obscene. From any party. I don't think spending a lot of money on your first inauguration is bad. It's your first time being president, you're excited go all out...democrat, republican or crazy freak with a bad hair cut. Actually I think I'd be as poed about Kerry since the economy is in bad shape and so many of the american people are either out of work, or making less money than they are now because the good paying jobs they did have went over seas. That's all I have to say.[/color]

[color=darkviolet]And why. You have to tell why or else the thread is just pointless, right? And it doesn't have to be your favorite favorite. It can just be one that stuck in your mind for a while. And don't forget band name and maybe the name of the song too. Oh, and you can do more than one. Mine is one I saw last night/this morning at 4:58AM on Nogin. It was NewFound Glory's I don't want to know video from their Catalyst album. The reason it's so memorable to me is because they showed an interacial couple going through all this stuff in a relationship on a park bench. I liked how they went through the seasons too. But I think the most memorable part of the video was the fact that it was an interacial couple. You don't get too many of those. I think my favorite one of all time was Cyndi Lauper's Girl's just want to have fun video from back in the 80's. She had a pro wrestler playing her dad and all these girls were running through the house freaking the guy out. I remember this one because Seaseme street had Prairie Dawn doing a version of the song where she sings about brushing her teeth. Aw those were the days... sorry, flash back. So, what are some of your favorites and most memorable music videos?[/color]

[color=darkviolet] Wel, my husband's online and I asked him where my lower cost gas was, and when he was going to send some to me, but he just said it was wrong to ask. A few places around my neck of the woods are finally going under $2.00 a gallon Of course those are the places that are near the Delta Sonic which always has cheap gas. So right now Delta Sonic is about $1.96.9/10 (don't ask about the 9/10) a gallon. So the HEss across the street will be $1.98.9/10 and the Mobil a bit further down will be $1.99. However the A+ near there is $2.01 a gallon and there's a Gulf down on Stone Rd (I'm mentioning where it is so if anyone is in my neck of the woods you can go bug the nasty lady who works there) has been $2.09 since last Christmas when Lincoln was up here (ie x-mas 2003) and when everyone else was at the most $2.11 she was $2.20. Maybe I'll just go my brother's route and ask my parents for gas money...heh, like that will happen. I'll agree with Boba, but what I think needs to happen is some more reliable public transportation in the smaller cities as well as the larger ones. [b]Edit[/b] Hey, after reading Lcrisler's post, who wants to go over to Iraq for some gas? Raise your hand![/color]

[QUOTE=Zenriek]I'm not that old, really. I can't pursue my career dreams for several more years, but here goes (three). 1.) I want to be a manga artist. Wether it's drawing and doing the whole thing on my own, or with people helping me, I want to be able to get at least one manga book out there (a good one) before I'm 28. 2.) I want to be an anime artist! I know this prolly ties in with the manga artist thing, but I think I'd really enjoy it. I know it takes a lot of patience to do these things, but hey, I've got time.[/QUOTE] [color=darkviolet]Not to bust your dreams or anything because I hate when peopel do that to me. But I read in one of the anime magazines a while back that it's very rare and almost impossible for a non Japanese artist to become a Mangaka or an anime artist. However, that being said with the influx of anime inspired drawing in newer american cartoons I don't see where actually having a goal towards american (yeah, I'm assuming you're american) animation and comics with manga styling...even though the american comics (buldging muscles and huge chests aside) have more realistic looking characters. Maybe you should try that. As for my college experiance, I know I could have made it if I had bothered to work at it. The college I attended was about an hour away from where I live so I lived in off campus housing since community colleges in NYS don't have campus housing. BUt my parents gave me about $100 a month and I had a job withy the campus works program. They also supplied food and since i didn't have a car yet they drove me to and from Canadaigua. If I had gone to the college I was accepted to i would have been living on campus at a dorm and would have been about 3.5 hours from home. The college was SUNY (state university of New York) Morrisville about half an hour from Syracuse and higher above sea level than where i live. It's pretty far from the town of Morrisville so the campus store doubled as a grocery store. I would have gotten more of an independant college expericance living there instead of FLCC, but I wasn't quite ready for that yet. I guess I got it full force though when I got married and moved half way across the country huh? [/color]

[color=darkviolet]Oh yeah, I do know someone on here. I've met him, and slept with him and had a kid with him...no it's [i][b]NOT[/b][/i] Deathbug. It's[b] LCrisler[/b] and if you don't know why I know him You're very new. I'm married IRL to LCrisler, and I recently talked him into joining because I managed to get him into anime back in 2000 and since he's smart enough to marry me I figured he'd be able to add some more insight to some of the topics. Unfortunately he's preoccupied with messing around with his bass or his guitar or watching anime. Or maybe even doing the unthinkable and working (like oh, I don't know getting his stupid self shot at on a convoy. He never listens when someone says don't go play near guns :rolleyes: ) So yeah, I know LCrisler, but that's it. Anyone else want to know me? I want to meet [b]anatama[/b] so we can compare underwear collections.[/color]

[quote name='James][color=#811C3A']Did you object to President Clinton's second inauguration in the same way? I just thought I'd throw that in, lol.[/color][/quote] [color=darkviolet]Well, yes I did (atleast I think I did, since I think I may have been starting 10th grade when he had his second inauguration). I think it's nuts to spend so much money for something you're doing for the second time. Whether it's a second marriage (unless it's because a.) your first one was seriously screwed up or b) because your first spouse died and you're getting remarried) or a second term. Hell, if I was president and I was elected a second term, I think I'd have a pizza party or something. Maybe a back yard BBQ...on my ranch. I have no problem with security, give the guy all the protection he needs because he has to show his stuff this time since the country decided he needed a second chance. He sure can't screw it up any more unless he suddenly decides to invade Iran or North Korea...or enlarges or deficite some more. Yeah, I'm such an optomist aren't I? Yeah, so I don't care much for Bush, but I think that question was unfair to me since I was only 15 when Clinton was reelected and I didn't care about politics. Can I Shami your head?

[quote name='Morpheus'] I thought protesting there was retarded. People said that DC voted against him 9 to 1, and that he disgraced DC by being here. It's the freaking capitol! Where do you think we'll Inagurate him? Paris?[/quote] [color=darkviolet]Good Goddess, I hope not...the cost for the whole inauguration and the balls are bad enough! But having to pay the dude's airfare to Paris (you do mean Paris France right? Because there's a Paris Kentucky...personally I think it would have been funny to hold it there..duh, of course it's France.) I think it's stupid to get someone re-sworn in. Bush really hasn't changed much in the past 4 years, he still has the same hair style he did four years ago...and those shoes. But hey, tradition is tradition. What really got me was how much they're spending on all these inaguration balls, over 3 million or more I think. It's obscene in the light of what this world is going through right now to waste money on a bunch of parties to celebrate yourself...how vain can you get? I think Bush should have just done his speech and had a quiet evening at home and instead of spending all that money on a bunch of parties he should have donated it to some after school programs, the Red Cross and the Susan Coleman Breast Cancer research center. Then just taken all his supporters to Crawford for a BBQ. Go annoy the Texans for El's sake. Of course, that's just my opinion. One party for one 'victory' is enough. Two is just vain and an over kill. I will not eat them here or there, I will not eat them anywhere, CHibi Horsewoman.[/color]

[quote name='anatema][size=1']I collect underwear. I don't really know how I got started but I've always loved having really pretty panties. [/size][/quote] [color=darkviolet] I am so glad to know that I'm [i]not[/i] the only one who collects underwear...:bawl: I'm soo happy!. I have Hello Kitty panties one pink gingham and the other is green gingham. Lincoln's cousin has the same two pairs. I think right now my favorite panties are the purple boy shorts with the silver glitter that go with my tank top that has the same material. I almost bought four more pairs at Target today, all with Tinkerbell on them, my newest obsession. Lincoln's cousin though is a rabid Hello Kitty fan. If it's Hello Kitty she has to have it. She has all the Hello Kitty make up, Hello Kitty socks, Hello Kitty panties, Hello Kitty body wash a Hello Kitty purse. She's trying to get her boyfriend to buy her a Hello Kitty bustier-don't ask. I told her if she could find me a new watch I'd give her my Hello Kitty one, and she keeps eying my Hello Kitty steering wheel cover. I swear if we ever went to Japan, she'd try to steal one of the Hello Kitty taxis they have. Why? Because when we were at Target on Monday she wanted to see if the Hello Kitty face could be ripped off the wall in the girl's department so I don't dpubt she'd steal a Hello Kitty taxi.[/color]

[color=darkviolet] If anyone says dust they are so voted off the island! I'm just really curious to know if people collect things and if the do what are they and why. As for myself well, I collect make up and underwear. Yeah I know strange collections. I have panties I haven't even worn yet and then when Victoria's Secret has their semi annual clearance or I see some cute ones at Target or somewhere like that I just go and buy them. Not so much with bras though because with bras they have to be Victoria's secret, but panties just have to be cute. So far I have 13 thongs, some hello kitty boy cut ones panties, a few bras (lime green, fuschia, turquoise, white, black, pale pink, light pink, purple ect ect. ) and some other things. Then the make up, well, it really doesn't matter where the cosmetics come from although I'm quite partial to Stila eye shadow. I bought an eyeshadow, blush and Lipstick set from Stila because the net proceeds went to breast cancer research. I also have flavored body powder (Peppermint and Caramel) from Urban Decay, some perfume by Taste from Jessica Simpson that smells and tastes like coconut and a bunch of Lipsticks I bought because they were discountinued at a grocery store (Max Factor I think) I barely wear make up, but it does fill up my medicine cabinet nicely...I hope Lincoln doesn't read this because he's be a bit pissed. Well, that's me, check in next time when I discuss my t-shirt collection. Hey, it [i]does[/i] taste like caramel, Chibi Horsewoman[/color]
