sad but true...especially last few years. I don't get it.
With last change of governament, things had gone really baad way. Jurnalists are being disrespected and some ended up in jail.
There is only one truth - the truth that governament says and everything else is a false.
Basically.
You still can express your opinion. But you can't be sure if you wont end up in jail.
BTW:
as a bulls fan, i used to read Chicago Tribune sports section daily. That really helped me to learn everyday english.

maybe not disappear, but you could get a 1-2 years in prison sentence, or for example 4 years of probation... |

Location: closely held secret | Speaking of DVD's, a whole bunch - see, on any other board I could say a lot, but like politics... but I digress.
A load went out Saturday, so if you see a brown package in your mailbox, and you don't subscribe to any of those magazines, don't be too quick to call the bomb squad.
International orders, those that also requested the 2005 DVD and those who were later in ordering and shall remain nameless (Jeff W.) will go out tonight. |

Got it! Thanks, Shovel! I missed the nuances.

Why DOES Hawaii have an Interstate? very interstating question, mike. it should be an "intrastate".
perhaps we just want all the tourists from the mainland who drive on interstates to feel comfortable? |

My apologies. I now realize what you are going through.
Protesters march in Seattle against War
Often, after a band practice or a set I just want to keep on going. It's like "come on guys, just a few more songs!". It's harsh.
There will be another parade next year. It'll be alright. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I'm betting that Hawaii had to have an Interstate in order to get federal funding for roads. Seems like most things that defy logic are "logical" only in the context of politics. Oops. I broke the rules. |

Location: Upper Left USA | The interstate joke is one in a long line of George Carlin's Jumbo Shrimp routines.
Mark had the right answer of sorts. Hawaii has an Interstate because everyone else got funding for one. And more importantly, to connect the Air and Sea Ports.
The Subsidizing of the Interstates is actually based on the need to transport the Military during extreme need. So that 10' road easement in front of your house could revert to federal Property during Marshall Law!
That's why we need to end all War!
Next issue please. |

i ain't sure if hawaii's "interstates" are part of the eisenhower interstate network that now wends its
tentacles all over the U.S.
'tis ironic how eisenhower warned against the "military industrial complex" and now the NWO has named its marshall law use interstate after him.
we ain't got any interstates on the big island...yet. no snakes, no interstates and very few consonants! |
