This group was shouting on the sidewalk at ground zero when I was there three week ago.

I guess there were babblers outside the Roman Forums.

George

ps: Of course they were selling (tryring to) books too.

The roman empire was a bloody one, and, on the other hand it is gone. I don't see your point

 

[Flyfisher Tom]

I can see why you were a 'favorite' of Bertrams ... lol.

cheers

 

[Pherdinand]

See? Just start a politically loaded question and you can screw up the best forum on earth.

 

[back alley]

[Pherdinand]

Alright, what the **** are we discussing here?

No, I have not clicked the link and watched the video, no sound here at work so no reason to.

Regardless of what it says, this topic, in the OT forum or not, with no justification other than that this is a photography web site, is on close watch.

Please continue your conversation with respect, and keep it in good taste as you have so far.

Thank you.

sometimes, it's impossible to keep a secret when even only 1 person is involved

Dang, so everybody knows it's not butter.

I was not talking about anyone in particular. I am sorry if you took it as YOU = MacAulay.

I am beginning to question why I even got into this thread

Funny how people would rather believe a complex lie than a simple truth.

 

[Pherdinand]

funny how some people think a simple statement can be understood by other people as it was intended

 

[enochRoot]

where is the simple truth? if we are still talking about 9/11...the panel that looked into the incident had something like 10,000 documents, photos, etc entered into evidence. i don't think there is a simple answer for this one way or the other.

 

[Nick R.]

Sure there is: terrorists hijacked four planes and crashed three into buildings.

We're conditioned to be fed and consume escapes. Movies, books, "art", gardening...they're all escapes. Even meditation is a form of escape, depending on how and where your meditating is.

Hey, when reality becomes too much, why not skew it even further by filtering what we don't like (like deleting threads, fining Latoya, removing seeds from grapes before we buy them, etc...)

For instance:

How did that Dr. Demento song go? "They're coming to take me away, ha ha, they're coming to take me away, he he ha ha ...to the happy home, with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they're coming to take me away, ha haaa!!!"

 

[Pherdinand]

The truth is, there's no spoon.

 

[Flyfisher Tom]

let's talk about something less contentious ...

Butter or Margarine ?
