I never said that oil was not a reason, I was saying that what sharrakor said is not true. We have not turned into what the founding fathers were fighting against.
Yeah, I was just going towards a different point.

'eh I hear what both of you are saying...as in understand...
TheMercenary- 07-22-2006
Doc, you have a great point.
rip, it doesn't even matter anymore...why bring back the past? What's done is done. We've got larger problems to worry about right now. Heh....if you ask me, all these other countries minor problems don't even match up to what we have on our hands right now. IF we don't take care of this huge problem in the Middle East, there might not be any other countries to help.
sharrakor- 07-23-2006
we're supposed to be pulling out of Lebanon by Sunday next week. I sure hope that's true.
TheMercenary- 07-23-2006
Yeah...weren't we just evacuating civilians or something? I dunno....a week of being outside with no news updates can really make yu fall behind.
sharrakor- 07-23-2006
you might be right about that...

okay, i will post that stuff about coke (or coca-cola, or whatever it is) now even tho i know i am a little late with it.
WATER
1. 75% of Americans are chronically
dehydrated.
2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak
that it is often mistaken for hunger.
3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism
as much as 3%.
4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger
pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of
Washington study.
5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime
fatigue.
6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of
water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up
to 80% of sufferers.
7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzz
short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty
focusing on the computer screen or on a
printed page.
8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk
of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast
cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less
likely to develop bladder cancer.And now for the properties of COKE:
1. In many states (in the USA) the highway patrol carries
two gallons of coke in the truck to remove blood from the
highway! after a car
accident.
2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it
will be gone in two days
3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the
toilet bowl and let the \"real thing\" sit for one hour, then flush
clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous
China.
4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the
bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds wrap aluminum foil
dipped in Coca-Cola.
5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a
can of Coca-Cola ov er the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.
6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Applying a cloth soaked in
Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several
minutes.
7. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of coke
into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a
regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains.
8. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.
For Your Info:
1. The active ingredient in Coke is PHOSPHORIC ACID. Its
pH is \"2.8.\" It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days.
! Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a
major contributor to the rising increase in osteoporosis.
2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial
truck must use the Hazardous material place cards
reserved for Highly corrosive materials.
3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean
the engines of their trucks for about 20 years!
Now the question is, would you like a coke or a glass of
water?
srry if it as spelling errors. i just copied and pasted.

Funny how the whole world is living under fear, and the Israeli's are using fear tactics to prove their cause. Terrorism isn't so dangerous, if it were, than you would see 20,000 terrorists entering our boarder through Mexico, instead of 20,000 illegal immigrants, EACH DAY!!!
sharrakor- 07-29-2006
well you have a good point there. but there is something that I would like to point out something.
FACT: there is approximately the same amount of illegal Irish immigrants as illegal Latino immagrants.
just thought I'd throw that out there.
TheMercenary- 07-30-2006
Really? Heh....i didn't know that.
cube2323- 07-31-2006
but they brought beer so who cares
TheMercenary- 08-02-2006
Hmmm....haven't heard about this much lately...wonder if N.K. chickened out or something....i dunno..
Hex- 08-05-2006
srry if this topic seems messed up. the bunker stuff was starting to become part of the topic, so i took out the bunker stuff and gave it a place of its own.
sharrakor- 08-05-2006
good job hex. that was a good choice.
I haven't heard much on it either. I've been watching the news for anything about it but nothin seems to be happenin. I highly doubt they chickened out tho.
