    I think we're already supposed to hate them. And now we're supposed to hate North Korea again, even though it was ok to not hate them a year ago (AND even though they are the birthplace of one of Korea's finest cold weather noodle dishes).

    For purposes of diplomacy, we should offer to trade our 2000 election results with Iran's recent election results for a recount. That whole debacle proved that we are _obviously_ the authority on conducting fair and accurate elections!

    true.

    ...and we never really believed we were going to leave Iraq.

    This way we could maintain our bases in Iraq not to ensure the continued flow of oil, but to establish democracy in in Iran.

    (the above would be sarcasm)

    And glibness aside, yes it is a very interesting article.

    Mougar, you've met Carmen, right?

    I believe Carmen's claim was to cuteness, not hotness.

    In my opinion, Captain Picard is both cuter and hotter than Paris Hilton.

    I think so, but he did that on again / off again thing with Vash. Incidentally, Vash is also hotter than Paris Hilton.

    agreed.

    perhaps Vash might do Paris, but he may have better taste.

    Troy was hotter.

    ...and I obvously stopped watching Star Trek too long ago to know Vash.

    I'm so ashamed

    you are the one who brought star trek up as a diversion.

    ...it worked. Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.

    Rant: I am in the position of hiring people for positions that will likely disappear Oct 1st.

    Rave: A job until Oct 1st beats none.

    ...I'm not sure how I'll handle someone who wants to leave their job to take one of mine.
