#1. To: christine (#0)
I'm in!
yippee! i have to go out for a few hours. bbasp!
So am I. Obviously a little rough around the edge right out of the gate but that's the way it is.
can a latest comments link be added at the bottom of each page?
np, understood Thanks for all your great efforts. Again, the UI is the best.
Done. At least on some pages. Not all of them really need it, like the signin page.
all kinds of tech problems, neil. several people have reported they can't post and/or have not been registered.
Okay.... Let me start with a test post....
Okay, everyone should be able to post fine now, and future registrations should work without a hitch. I've confirmed the account "robin" manually.
Thanks Neil.. !! Appreciate it.
Thank you, Neil.
alright!
Sam is in da house...again.
HEY..how are you? Welcome ..
Thanks. Ain't my day. I either have the flu, or salmonella from oysters on the half shell. Either way, I've felt better. I like the new place, but I keep thinking I'll see "he who shall not be named but posts from the library in Ohio" in here.
please do not use that name on tos4. ;)
UGH.. all on all counts!!
how do i send email invitations with the url for here? they keep getting bounced back?
Thanks Neil, I switched back to it. Can you remove wl_robin?
Well. This is a lot better. Sort of feels like the old LP. When't the party start?
we need more guests!
burkeman1 just quit LP and I invited him. Several others from FU. I'll go invite some more. Flintlock should be here soon.
Flintlock is having problems getting on. Neil, can you help him out?
Flintlock is standing outside in the snow, his nose pressed against the window pane. How sad.
It depends on the reason. If it's because the from address uses tos4truth.org in the name and it's not yet recognized, then that might be prevented as an anti-spam measure. If you use your own address, it should work, or wait for the tos4truth name to become active in your neck of the woods. All is set up there now so it's just a matter of time.
Well, Diana's out there with him, so it's not all that bad for him... stand by.
Hi Diana. Did you get my PM? I'm probably going to get banned for all the PMs I sent tonight on TOS3.
If you guys are reading: Goldi just told the bunch on TOS2 that there was too much treason on the site. She was consideing some new posting rules. Burkeman1 quit on the spot and everyone else is razzing thes**tout of Goldi as we speak. I told Skydrifter to start a thread about it on TOS3. If someone has a TOS2 ID they should go over and post an invite.
As an aside, it's going to be fun watching CP crap their huggies tomorrow. They thought we all crawled off and died.
I checked that site out for the first time today. After 5-10 minutes I was so repulsed by it all, I deleted it from the Firefox history list.
It's an odd site. As far as I can tell, it's eight peole who run a site dedicated to hating us and making fun of Snake and USMCVet. Pretty strange.
Where is Zipporah? She should be here to get the party going.
she's watching a movie with her son.
Hey, I just got www.TOS4Truth.org to open to the website.
Years from now someone will ask her about this historic moment. She will be forced to say that she missed it. She was watching a movie with her son.
I'm sure she'll check in later.
Weren't you wl_robin a little while ago? Letters keep falling off your nick. Better tell Neil.
It's a conspiracy I tell ya.
I should make a speech. Harrrummph. One small post for a man, one innane rant for mankind. Thank you. Thank you. You've been a true delight.
Flint and Diana are now online.... or should be anyway. Thanks for your patience. I'm actually pretty excited about the current sophistication of the software. It's looking very good. These bugs here are just little misnaming errors.
you did?? oh, good!!
I was at a party with friends from school (half of whom were stoned) when a guy named Neil, said something just like that. (The party was just for the landing; we rated his speech as overly affected and lacking in spontaneity).
Can I be the first to dis Bush on this forum? Bush is a f**king nanny goat. Now the place feels like home.
The tos4truth.org domain now works for me. It may not work for everyone yet. Switching to it means getting prompted to log in again.
Now the place feels like home. I'm going to add a conspiracy to your dissing of Smirk.
It's funny how all this stuff happens at the same time. It does make one suspicious. As more and more bots see through the bullshit and morph into libertarians or conservatives, the bot masters panic and try to deny them a voice.
Mekons3 says he is trying to register now. He's waiting for his confirmation.
Donm is on TOS3 now. You should invite him over. That's Don from TOS2. He's a good poster but he's pissed at me now. Otherwise I'd just invite him myself.
Me too. Hi everybody!
He didn't get one?
Ok, but I don't know him. I invited justlurking, although she's going through hell right now.
Hey! It's workin' now!
hi!
I made it. Thanks so much for setting this up. I hang at a couple of other sites, but they tend to be echo chambers. I like this much more.
uh huh. makes one somewhat suspicious.
That sounds like Burkeman1. I was watching when he quit TOS. That guy may be a bit cranky, we may not agree a lot, but he's WAY too decent a person to be anywhere near G**die and the rest of those fruitcakes.
You might want to check the email links on the FAQ page.
How are you doing newbie. Welcome to the site.
I invited him over. I imagine we'll see him in a while.
Jethro Tull registered and said he couldn't post. He may have tried before it was sent?
Looks like some of the confirmation emails have been considered spam on the recieiving end due to the "from" address (tos4) not being recognized, so some confirmation emails might be found in spam folders. Email me if you're waiting on anything.
His account appears to be fine. What happens when he tries to post/login?
Mine was in my spam folder. I get so much spam now I have forgotten all about reviewing it before deleting.
Good to see your name again. :)
I second that emotion! :) Thanks, Chrissie.
Hi CM..............glad to see you here, too! :)
You do realize that I'm the evil crack monkey. The good one is still over at FU.
i don't know. he's offline now. i have a suspicion he tried before receiving the notification. is bruce here?
the cm on FU is that sick person out of DC. ;)
What is happening to justlurking? Sounds serious.
Yeah, and he's considered to be the "good" one. Kind of shows you where I'm coming from.
Neil, what is with the Date thingie? When i created a post, the date of the article was 23 january 2005, and I typed that in. The software had a hissy fit! Said I had a problem in the date field. So I lamented to Robin about it and she suggested just going to to the way it was. The pulldown menu on the date had nothing in what would appear to be a place for the MONTH. And as for the category thing.........that threw me as well when it said it couldn't figure out a category and that I would have to use my best judgement! Hello! I was using the software's pulldown menu to pick a category--and the software wanted me to come up with something better? Maybe it was just a compounded problem...I kept receiveing just the PREVIEW BUTTON and not a POST IT button until I went back to the original date. Does this mean that articles with dates other than the current date will be mis- dated?
She's okay, but her sister-in-law just died of cancer.
OK I remember now. She was going to Kansas last time I heard. I recall the conversation.
Registered but not confirmed.
Oh good............I need someone 'evil' to hang out with........... I appreciated your breaking the ice and christening the site as to the feelings regarding the liar in chief. :)
Are you sure we're not back at El Pee? I don't want to get banned my first day posting.
Hi rowdee.
I popped the site's what ever you call it.
YIPEE!!!! I have officially changed my HOME PAGE to TOS4TRUTH.ORG.......... No longer affiliated with TOS3.
Hi Flintlock........
sure. you don't feel any oppression, do ya? ;)
Back in my younger days there was a name for something like that! :)
I'm actually Goldi. The bots on my site drive me crazy so I hang out over here to decompress.
oh, JT said it accepted him, but he was unable to log in.
The date bug has been fixed. Thanks for the heads up. Auto categorization is always there to tell you if it can't categorize, and right now it can't categorize anything because there are no keywords entered with the categories. The implication in the case where it can't categorize is only that it cannot help. If it can make a recommendation and you choose semething different, it will let you but the message is a bit stronger.
Does it give a bad ID/PW message, or does it seem to work but reroute him to sign in again? Might be best for him to email me.
You are? Does that mean you look like this?
Pleez, sweet baby jesus, NOOOOOOOOOOO Seriously, it is nice to see a bunch of familiar names here. I really enjoyed a site where a wide variety of political viewpoints were represented. But those PIGS were never interested in discussion, just attacking and scoring points in as dishonest a manner as possible. They're the Bush base.
Thanks, Neil. Did you get the message earlier that I had tried to email you using the webmaster link at the bottom of one of the pages, but that I received it back with the following: ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- (reason: 550 : Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual alias table) I haaven't a clue, but I'm sure you do.......... Dee
Yup. That address doesn't work. I changed it to a new one that does. Thx...
Got it. Thanks. Meant to delete most of that but some of the help stuff is just in how to use the system. Thx...
Your fingerprints are all over this site. LOL!
Howdy!
I didn't do it nobody saw me do it you can't prove anything! hehehe.... welcome.
Bart, Bart, BART, BART I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, you can't prove anything Yo, Hey what's happenin' dude I'm a guy with a rep for bein' rude Terrorizin' people wherever I go It's not intentional, just keepin' the flow Fixin' test scores to get the best scores Droppin' banana peels all over the floor I'm the kid that made delinquency an art Last name Simpson, first name Bart I'm here today to introduce the next phase The next step, in the big Bart craze I've got a dance real easy to do I learned it with no rythm and so can you So move your body if you got the notion Front to back in a rock-like motion Now thacha got it if you think that you can Do it to the music, that's the Bartman Everybody if you can do the Bartman Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man Ah front to back to the side yes you can, can Everybody in the house do the Bartman Everybody if you can do the Bartman Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man Front to back to the side yes you can, can Everybody in the house do the Bartman It wasn't long ago, just a couple of weeks I got in trouble, yeah, pretty deep Homer was yellin' (Bart) Mom was too Because I put mothballs in the beef stew Punishment time, in the air lurks gloom Sittin' by myself confined to my room When all else fails nothin' else left to do I turn on the music so I can feel the groove Move your body if you got the notion Front to back in a rock-like motion Move your hips from side to side now Doncha slip, let your feet glide now If you've got the groove you gotta use it Rock-rhythm in time with the music You just might start a chain reaction If you can do the Bart you're bad like Michael Jackson Everybody if you can do the Bartman Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man Front to back to the side yes you can, can Everybody in the house do the Bartman Everybody if you can do the Bartman Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man Front to back to the side yes you can, can Everybody in the house do the Bartman Do the Bartman Do the Bartman, Everybody back and forth From side to side Do the Bartman Do the Bartman, Pick your feet up off the floor Let 'em glide Do the Bartman Do the Bartman, She can do it, you can do it So can I Do the Bartman Do the Bartman, Now here's a dance beat That ya can't deny Turn it down, will you shut that infernal racket Do the Bartman Oh my ears, Lisa put that saxophone away You can't touch this I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it You can't prove anything Now I'm in the house, feelin' good to be home 'till Lisa starts blowin' that damn saxophone And if it was mine you know they'd take it away But still I'm feelin' good so that's okay I'm up in my room just'a singin' a song Listenin' to the kick drum kickin' along Yeah Lisa likes jazz she's her number one fan But I know I'm bad 'cause I do the Bartman Everybody if you can do the Bartman Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man Front to back to the side yes you can, can Everybody in the house do the Bartman Do the Bartman Do the Bartman, Everybody back and forth From side to side Do the Bartman Do the Bartman, She can do it, you can do it So can I Move your body if you got the notion Front to back in a rock-like motion Move your hips from side to side now Doncha slip, let your feet glide now If you've got the groove you gotta use it Rock-rhythm in time with the music You just might start a chain reaction Do the Bartman Everybody if you can do the Bartman Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man Front to back to the side yes you can, can Everybody in the house do the Bartman Everybody if you can do the Bartman Shake your body turn it out if you're bad man Front to back to the side yes you can, can Everybody in the house do the Bartman Move your body if you got the notion Front to back in a rock-like motion Move your hips from side to side now Doncha slip, let your feet glide now If you've got the groove you gotta use it Rock-rhythm in time with the music You just might start a chain reaction Everybody in the house do the Bartman Do the Bartman Oh wow, man
i got in :)
Ah, yes.... That's where I got it from. Couldn't quite recall from whence....
I don't know what the problem might have been/is. Looks fine on this side.
Thanks, it's good to be back among familiar folks again. I've been so damned busy wish work and I'm posting like crazy on a music industry site (a place where I know SOMETHING about what goes on and can comment cogently), as opposed to politics where I just mostly read, learn, and make wise-ass comments. I really like this format.
Good to see you back, even though you "added 1" to your name since we last talked. I thought you'd fallen off the edge of the internet after the presidential selection.
Are you into nerd, hobby, music stuff? Here is a site dedicated to building your own tube amp from scratch: http://www.ax84.com/home.html. I'm going to try to build one. I just bought the test leads ($70 gasp - not trivial) and a multimeter. Already have a scope. Debating whether buy the parts kit or order all the stuff myself on mouser. Look at the pictures of the completed amps. One guy on the site built a beautiful red tolex one and another guy build his in a corn bread pan.
I would imagine a large Sub-Woofer box would be ideal for such a thing. You know, like kids put in the trunk of their car.
Well, other than owning a Fender Bassman 50 tube amplifier, which requires tweaking to keep alive, I never have built my own amp. I love tinkering with stuff, though, so I'd probably enjoy it. I have several antique clocks I've restored at various levels. Midnight and noon is a real blast around here, because I don't like things that don't work. The clocks must be running, and running accurately. I can sleep right thru the noise now, but I've had guests ask it we could at least turn off the cuckoo clock at night. As far as projects go, my first big one will be to refinish my great grandfather's old violin (yeah, I know, you should never do that, but this thing hung out on a porch in east texas for 40 years, then somebody literally brush painted it w/ red barn paint), so i stripped it. Beautiful wood, scratched into the wood was "Knxvill Tenn, 1871". I'm trying to figure out what to put back on that to get it playable. But yeah, in general, I love taking things apart.
Maybe use the enclosure/faraday cage from an old (huge, you know the ones..) PC to house the power supply within it?
I'm just going to build it as a head. Just buy a stock aluminum box off mouser for the chassis, although the corn bread pan is funny. Eventtually, I'd like to try to build 1966 a black face bassman. You can get the schematics and chassis layout off the internet. Apparently all the parts are available. The thing is all point to point wiring inside. Everyone who knows anything about it however has told me to build the simple one first. Apparently, the real trick is to get the hum and distortion tuned out once you get it wired up. They tell me the multistage bassman would just get away from a newbie like me.
... a 1966 Fender black face bassman. I am really getting dislectci.
Blackface amps are so...racist.
hey look! I can post!!! Hi all!!!
The pink/shiney ones are worse. They should be ostracized. To keep them from contaminating the good, wholesome, decent amps.
Hi, Capps!
Yes, and most of the people who play them are liberals, e.g., Country Joe and the Fish, Eric Clapton, Paul Kantner, etc. What does that tell you?
I hear Senator Byrd has a few still locked in his basement..
Hi Hoffa! This place looks somwhat familiar..... Have I been here before??? =0) Although the poster's I have seen so far are far superior than those in my limited memory.....
Oh I know.. With every keystroke I'm awaiting a hiss from Goldi about something trivial. Along with a minor slight of some type from the ambiguously gay duo, Trace & Floyd.
Along with a minor slight of some type from the ambiguously gay duo, Trace & Floyd. Kinda creepy, ain't it??? =0) I keep waiting for the TLBCUT&PASTESHOW and some post/link back to FR.....
Along with Badeye either posting something nonsensical or (quite overtly) braging about the size of his penis. Ahh, the bad ole' days.. How they sucked.
Rush should be made aware of this situation. Another example of the Dems covert racism. The dark side of '60s hippidom.
I have a bigger penis than Boteye....... and yes, the old days doth sucketh indeed!
Actully, we should go back in the posts and mark the exact day he said that. Then, each year thereafter, we could celebrate "Willy Day" where we run a thread laughing at this remark.
LOL! Quick, someone save it to disk! I forget where it's at, but it's definately a keeper.
Now THAT is some kind of idea - what kind, I am not sure of...... hi crack!
The thread can start with badeys post. No comment. No explanation. Then everyone can spend the day making of it what they will. We can invite all the people from the other forums to celebrate Puppy Peter Day with us.
Let the record show that I was NOT the first to mention this person (or his unit) here.
Yes. It might be best to keep that name from sullying this forum. From now on I'm just going to refer to him as "Puppy Peter" or "The Vienna Sausage".
The Cocktail Weenie?
That may be appropriate since you-know-who thinks everyone who has ever imbibed in the evil alcohol should be killed. I'm sure the irony would be lost on him though.
It is soooooooooooooooooooo good to see ya posting, young lady!
Gads...........has anyone else thought that the 'go slow' comment meant the gal (s) wanted him to slow down so they could actually FIND what it was y'all seem to be thinking he was bragging about!
Right, Samuel............I am a witness. With the mention of certain names, it's damn near like someone pissin in the pool! LOL
Personally, I believe Vienna Sausage to be the perfect name inasmuch as that jerkoff really overates himself--BIGTIME!
I'd thought of that too...go slow so she could feel anything at all. ;)
There's a comment in there about "meat in the can" that I'd just best avoid this early on a Saturday.
Mekons4 is perfect!
LOL! Gee, I wonder where's he's from?
Hi Capps!
Profanity filter is now switched off.....
Uh oh. We could have an entire thread just to test that.
The use of verbs and adjectives here won't be considered peeing in your pool will it?
And why are you turning off the fucking profanity filter?
No it won't, because it ain't my pool.
Here's something that's really cool: Robot Monkey Head PC Interface The monkey head has microphones in its ears so that the eyes follow you when it speaks or listens. Your PC will still have the keyboard, mouse and monitor, but you will now have the option of sitting across the room and controlling your PC by talking to the monkey head. The monkey head will return information that would normally appear on your PC screen by speaking. The mouth moves realistically when it speaks and the eyebrows and forehead show emotion. I presented this to some people this afternoon and they said it looked like something invented by somebody on drugs. They didn't appreciate the adavantage of the hands free PC operation.
Link is messed up: Robot Monkey Head PC Interface
I presented this to some people this afternoon and they said it looked like something invented by somebody on drugs. They didn't appreciate the adavantage of the hands free PC operation. I guess I'm at a loss for words here. And they aren't even being filtered anymore.
Bwah-haha Of all the monkeys, he is the one I disliked the most. Most of the others were just lying racist thugs, but he was so PROFOUNDLY dishonest. He would deliberately post obviously false figures, make all sorts of economic claims which were blatant lies. When he got called on it, he would just call the other person a liar. And he would spread the lie over thread after thread after thread, just trying to drown out anyone who knew the real figures. With any luck, a guy who owns his own business but has time to drop 200 posts a day, or more, will lose the business fast. My guess: He's in some boilerroom telemarketing thing where he just has to go out and make sure the flunkies are making enough calls and lying hard enough.
Good! I really like your site, it would be a shame for us to mess it up. Don't give up, but remember there's nothing to be gained taking the Rick Stanley approach. Here's to hopeing we can beat the bastards using thier own rules.
I met a lot of guys like badeye back in Newport Beach California. I think it's the working wife/rich daddy businessman syndrome. There were a lot of guys there jsut playing office. Basically managing their trust funds or running errands for the working wife. They would actually rent offices and set up business accounts with names like "American Trust and Investments" or "State of California Investigation and Anti-Terrorist Unit". They would then hang out in the office with their buddies and hire cute secretaries at minimum wage. I was in my early thirties at the time and knew women who made a career out of working for these types. They never really did business, but the wives/daddys forked over money to pay the office rents and phones. This kept the guys from feeling like losers and the wife/daddy could console themselves with the hope that their loser son/husband just needed time to build up his business. There are whole office comlexes in Orange County that cater to these types. From what I have seen of badeye over the years, this is what I suspect he is. Nobody can do anything worth while wasting as much prime business time as he does. It's simply not possible to be that unfocused and still accomplish anything worthwhile.
Now on the federal media: The Iraqi polls open in 30 minutes!! My money is on the pro-Bush ticket. It would be, however, highly entertaining if Saddam won by a write-in landslide--we'd have to beat some freedom into them. And, I did notice that one of the intrepid and embedded federal media reporters was braodcasting from a building in Baghdad that had a huge banner hanging from the facade: "WELCOME IRAQ VOTERS" -- in block english letters. I wonder if the ballots are in all English?
On a serious note. Got your letter went out in today's mail. Let me know if it doesn't arrive by Wednesday. it's only coming from DC. Thanks for getting us set up.
Here's to hopeing we can beat the bastards using thier own rules. There are indeed many ways to play the game. Some play by "the" rules, some go under the radar, and some take the brute force approach, like Rick did, but with varying degrees of success.
I'm glad to have the software used to promote liberty.
hell..... Maybe our elections would go more smoothly HERE if we printed them in a different language?
You are very discerning - I could never chose which one I hated the most as there are SO MANY in such a wide assortment of BUSHBOT flavors! JJ was always a pig - but I think that's just a part of his psychosis. Trace90210 is just a STORMTROOPER (hehehehehe) and Floyd the Barber was about as useful as a case of tapeworms. But hey, I am being nice, you may feel differently and I apologize if I have under-offended you.
I wish I had been here more today - but I slept the day away. went to take a nap at 1pm and just woke up. Guess I needed it. good to see you as well Dee!
I know this the 4th time I have posted and it looks a bit like I am playing catch up, and I am.... But HI ROBIN! It sucks to be alone on a thread..... ;0)
You're not alone, we're just talking to you. ;) FUCK! (This was a test of the profanity filter, we now return you to your regularly scheduled broadcasting)
Make that we're just NOT talking to you... shit (that one was for the lack of edit feature.)
So am I. I think the people here genuinely care about our country, and are the REAL patriots, not the SUV drivers with SUPPORT OUR TROOPS on their bumper. We can differ about all sorts of things, but I think everyone here loves this country and wants the best for it. And the Bushies are rapidly dismantling everything good we have. I think the country is catching on, but too late. There's a slim possibility of impeachment, but I wouldn't count on it. These people have bought the press, bought the business community, bought every big bucks constituency. The only thing that will drive them out is five million people laying seige to OUR house.
Under-offended! Jesus, that is hilarious. Consider it officially stolen. See, this is why I love this place, we can disagree and be fun. I think if we met at a bar or something sometime we would like each other a lot. We really have to think about a third party that doesn't allow the powermongers to run it, either way. I'm so liberal some people might puke, but I am a deficit hawk and more or less pro-business. In this space, we do not judge people by one view. I am so happy Neil did it again.
okay.... that makes sense then. Thanks for telling me!
You know I was joking, right?
yep
Have a question... Are you guys going to do something with the logo?? It may be small and petty of me.. but it is driving me nuts... It looks so small and off color... Sorry if I stepped on any toes.. but I had to say something..
Yes there is someone working on it as we 'speak'.. and Neil is going to change the overall look..
yes, zipporah and i are planning a new look. this is temporary. no offense taken.
Thanks for the replies.. And thanks again for the site... It's nice to have a "home".. :-)
Welcome.. thank you..
Instead of TOS4Truth...why not call it: Liberty Underground, or Freedom Post ;^)
We were just going to call it TOS4. I now actually think this would have been best. But oh well. When this place gets too crowded we'll start TOS5 and just call it TOS5 period.
I've made the title length when posting articles a setable parameter, and upped it to 300 for TOS4. No one tell TLBSHOW.
hey, good to see y'all! :)
HEY kiki!! Welcome to 4!
hi kiki!
i was just iming with Arator and he came up with a good one, "Freedom4um" hahahahaha. i love that. TOS4Truth is going to look better when we redo the logo and revamp the look with color and font change. coming soon.
WB, Kiki. (Which was my daughter's nickname when she was a kid...I still call her keeks, but not around her friends. There she is Kathleen, if you please.) Happy to see the people of good intention returning. Bush sure is a uniter, ain't he? But this might be a good thing. If we can start talking past the talking points and get down to what is important, we have a chance to forge a real democracy. I mean, how weird is it that liberals like me are the deficit hawks? I always have been one, but it was not a hallmark of the Dem party or the liberal mindset. Now it is. As usual, I will ramble and free associate. This weekend, NPR here in Chicago had a series of specials about the death of Cabrini Green, the largest public housing project in the country. It has been shut down in stages, torn down and replaced with mixed low-rise townhouse villages, where the wealthy pay $350K for a unit, and the poor pay a prorated rent or can buy for a lot less on very favorable terms. So far it is working, and they shut down the last big buildings this weekend. In 1955, huge public housing sounded like a good idea to liberals. It turned out to be a very bad one. It was better than what was going on then, and the city sold the world on it with an ad campaign that contrasted the ghetto that was there at the time to nice clean public housing. Well, it was better, but not much. Europe was doing the same thing, calling them council estates, at the time. Clockwork Orange was a prediction of what would happen, and it was accurate, but if anything, too optimistic. When the Sex Pistols sneered "just another council tenancy" in No Future, they were referring to the warehousing of the marginalized disguised as compassion. That's my longwinded way of saying that some liberal ideas look GREAT on paper, and suck in real life. The job of conservatives is, IMO, to say, yeah, that sounds nice, but society can afford JUST SO MUCH. They act as brakes on the bad ideas for change and force a debate. And liberals force bad conditions to change. It's a healthy thing. The Neocons are a new phenomenon. They're the most deluded, stars in their eyes, hippy-dippy, peacenlove idiots ever. Starshine and Uncle Truckin's dream of having, like, man, a COMMUNITY in the Maine woods where everyone would do, like, what they wanted, sounds more mature and sensible than delivering democracy like Domino's, only with a bunkerbuster bomb. I was in grad school with some of these nuts. A couple are in the administration now, in lowly positions, but they make good money. They were fairly normal until they got into grad school, at which point they developed delusions of grandeur, suddenly realizing they were great thinkers. They were not, and their professors told them so, but they started taking over classes. It was like an infection. Pretty soon a friend of mine would start calling me naive. These people were marginal liberals, not activist or anything, but traditionally liberal. And suddenly it was like The Night of the Living Dead. Neoconism is a very seductive philosophy; boiled down, it says you can do good by doing bad. These are people who think saving a village by destroying it makes sense. The thing I noticed most, though, was how they started saying "grow up." They wanted to be taken seriously, they lost all sense of humor, they suddenly had a mission. The same thing happened to a close friend who is now high up in the Moonies. There has to be a cause greater than all of us for them and if we don't sign on, we're frivolous. Remember the buttholes in the Bushie wing saying, "the adults are in charge"? These are very dangerous people. They cannot think for a second they might be wrong. They never debate. They scream, they deliver ludicrous talking points without a blink, they change language to mean what they want it to mean, they will do anything to win. Underlying it is a sense of narcissism. They are all very mediocre people. There is not one truly bright person among them. Ever notice how Condi demands to be called Dr. Rice? How Smirk demands to be called Mr. President? Condi is a mediocrity and Smirk is less than that. Anyone who hangs out at a university long enough and sucks up to the neocon PoliSci profs (yes, that was my major) can get a doctorate. The one guy they had who was truly intelligent was Paul O'Neill. He was spacy, but bright. And look what happened to him. Christie Whitman, despite my dislike of her, was pretty bright too, but she is long gone and her new book is going to kick their ass. What's surprising is that even the mediocrities, like Ridge and Lindsey and Veneman, have all been thrown overboard too. This gang needs TOTAL loyalty and they were losing it among their functionaries, so they got a whole new crew who had not been around to see them make sausage. My prediction is, it will not work, they will implode and people like Ted Kennedy and Orrin Hatch are going to get together and say, OK, we don't agree, but we, unlike them, have the best interests of the country in mind. Let's work it out, get someone in office and start working together more. I have no idea how to get out of Iraq, but we have to. I have no idea how to cure the health system, but we have to. I have no idea how to repair our image worldwide, but we have to. I have no idea how we can repair this economy, but we have to. So I am happy to have this site, and we have to make sure that scum like Badeye are banned instantly when they turn discussion into partisan flame war.
lol - i'm a longtime liberal too - i think most of the people here know that. how funny, maybe w really is a uniter, except i don't think the intention was to unite people against him. i've never been a supporter of big government. i do believe in helping people, but helping them get on their feet, not carrying them forever. you know, teaching a man to fish, that sort of thing. i like it here cause i feel like if i hang out somewhere like du, i'm not gonna get any fresh perspective. i like finding things in common with people who haven't shared my ideology for years and years. i agree with you about all the things we absolutely have to do, but have no idea how to do. the first step is identifying the problem, right? second step is shedding the labels and realizing we're all in this together. if liberals and true conservatives can find common goals, we may just make the people currently in power irrelevant. and that would be cool.
Yeah, I didn't mean to imply you were a conservative. I was just riffing on how nice it is to see good people come back. We CAN solve this mess, but we have to totally discredit these creeps. There is no way we can say, well, they had a point. They did not. The reason we got attacked was not that they envied what we have, as the Bushies like to say, but because they hate us for supporting Israel, subverting the Saudis and supporting their fascist regime, and basically telling them they are savages. I have friends who are Palestinian and Lebanese. They were so gung ho at the beginning of the war, because they really thought we would bring democracy to Iraq. Yeah, right. That is not our intent and no one sane believes it. Our intent it is to stabilize the oil market, which is not evil in and of itself. But to kill 100,000 people, most of the civilians? That is not what real Americans do. Oh, and DU drives me nuts too. I use their LBN page because it has some good stuff, but I avoid most of the other content. If you admit you like a steak once in a while, you will get called a mass murderer. Both sides have bad actors, but no one at DU is as bad as the average person at FRetard City. Happy to see you here, Kiki.
Thanks for the invite. It's late but I'll be back. 8^)
Thank you for the invitation, I feel so privilidged!! Oh, I fucked that up didn't I? LOL Thanks, this should be fun!!
So this is where everyone who really matters is hanging out! Hey guys! Nice place ya got here! &;-D
Well, I'll be damned! Property values just went up here AGAIN! Welcome, 2T. Haven't seen you since my days at TOS(wherever) when I was living in Arlen, Texas...
OK, I have a site support idea. We need the digital equivalent of a "swear jar" except it'll be used for "that name." Every time someone speaks it, it costs them a buck. That guy is so universally despised and ridiculed that this place will be MAKING money in no time.
Are you talking about the Cocktail Weenie?
That'd be him. Vague reference costs 50 cents. ;)
Thank you SamG .. so nice to see familiar handles. Guess when you're on the net as long as us "olde dogs", we are bound to run into each other again. That is, iffin' we live that long! &;-)
That is good.
I love the photo.
Morning Kiki, welcome.
No one tell TLBSHOW. LOL!!
If available, I'd like the fourth one from the left just because.
WOW! My partner in crime! Hello Cagey! &;-)
Thank you ... I love graphics, they're so much fun.
Yup, true, and I lay around on a lotta porches these days. ;) I tried to remember when I got online, and I think it was within two weeks of the Murrah bombing in April 1995, and thats' coming fast upon 10 years ago. Even still, I'm a rookie compared to some. Where's that classic graphic you had about the lady holding the internet monitor saying "all my friends live in here!!"
I hope life has been good to you! "Where's that classic graphic you had about the lady holding the internet monitor saying "all my friends live in here!!" Hahaha! I remember that one now ... can't tell you where it went though ... that was several computers and hard drives ago.
That is a good name. There is no reason we couldn't adopt it. Just reserve com, org and net like we did for tos4. I can kick in for this. Keep tos4 on, just have it bring up a page with an href to the new name. Have an explanation on the page that the name is in the process of being changed. We could later use tos4 as some sort of sub forum.
Understood...I used to laugh at people w/ laptops, until I bought one and damn, I thought I was net addicted BEFORE? I don't know how people live without 'em. You could sell every TV and dvd player in the house and it'd be weeks before I'd miss 'em, but I know if the laptop has been moved an inch. :) "Real" hobbies are just so time consuming, and you have to dress and leave the house.
I thought about "Free4all" too, but I think it might get misunderstood...
How about "The Vienna Sausage that Dares not Speak it's Name"? The Oscar Wilde gay overtones are a nice touch considering who we are talking about.
LOL ... I recently set up a new domicile and left the teevee behind. Don't miss it one bit, but would enjoy the cooking channel and Discovery type stuff. Otherwise you are right ... hobbies. The net is just a hobby. I've been thinking about getting a tablet PC ... mostly for work though. Have you had any experience with them?
Be sure to check out the reconditioned lap top stores in your area. Like Mr. Laptop in San Antonio. I picked up a really great reconditioned IBM Think Pad for $350. After I bought a huge ram for it it ran great. The internal wifi radio is better than any of the desk top stuff I've ever bought.
Thanks for the tip. There are bargains out there for sure ... it's just finding the time to track them down.
Nope, I bought a Dell Latitude that a friend of mine rebuilt and tweaked w/ extra ram and a larger hard drive. It does just fine for most things.
And we did so good on our last heist. Ahhhhh, the good ol' days.
I recently purchased a laptop for travel. And, I got my daughter one as a Christmas gift. Do make sure you get a wi-fi ready laptop as they are so easy to use for a connection. My daughter is "borrowing" the signal from a neighbor which is quite the thrifty thing to do. LOL
hi y'all and welcome to 4. we've got a new look coming soon. you really are NOT at LP2. ;)
LOL..what a great idea!
welcome to 4. we've got a new look coming soon. you really aren't at 2. ;)
I've heard of that. I have a "wired" ethernet card, but the wireless ones are cheap, I just didn't wanna buy the router to go along with. Do you just pick up the signal like a TV antenna or does it take special software? I already have cable internet, but it'd be nice to be able to catch something "on the skip" when I'm away from home on the laptop. :D
Nope, I'm on the Holodeck with Seven of Nine. These sinus meds must be kicking in...
and it's not free 4 all. no statists or others of that type are welcomed.
Thanks for the welcome, Christine. The site seems to refresh and searches very quickly. Good Luck!
what do you guys think of grabbing the name Freedom4um?
No special software if you are using XP. I'm not sure about earlier Windows versions. As for catching connections on the skip, you can find free "Hot Spots" by doing a google search using "free hot spots", or I hear this a small portable device (about the size of a pen" that will tell you when you are in range of a signal and the newer ones will even tell you which signals are "open" with no need for a password.
I know, I was goin for the wise-ass remark ;)
Already this morning the person who is not to be named on this site has done the following: 1. Denied that Tommy Franks ever said that Douglas Feith "is the stupidest fucking guy on the face of the earth", because it wasn't in the book he wrote. "Bottom line is Franks never once mentioned anything remotely close to this" 2. Congratulated Crystalk for having a concise accurate picture of what is going on in Iraq. Their concern is only because it is a threat to their OWN HEGEMONY over the United States of America. Iraq's success in its fledgling democracy is very good news for all the Christians in the world and for all decent men and women of goodwill everywhere. "I think you have a very concise, accurate picture of how things are. " 3. Congratulated another bot: Yes, and this was most certainly worth 1,300 American lives. Yes. It was. "Yes, their deaths were not in vain, unlike St Kennedy and LBJ's war in Vietnam." 4. Refused to tell an 86 year old WWII vet (blackhorse) who or what FU is: Ask somebody else Why? Is FU a secret organization that you can not tell me what the FU site is? "Nope, I just have no interest in discussing wacko's that ran away from the truth, as the "FU Clan" did two years ago." Honestly, you can't make stuff like this up. We simply must have a thread dedicated to what this moron says in the space of 10 minutes. The above is only a small sampling just from this morning!
That's why I had to move ... I couldn't stand it when it rained!
Sounds like a good idea.. I like the name actually.
OMG...my monitor needs a barf shield. Lord Valdebot is even stupider than I thought, and that's saying something.
In keeping w/ the general tone here, I think FreedomFROMum would be apropos...
Don't worry! Grey skies are gonna clear up.
Yes, and this was most certainly worth 1,300 American lives. Yes. It was. "Yes, their deaths were not in vain, unlike St Kennedy and LBJ's war in Vietnam." Dear Lord.. how can anyone who is honest say something like this? Of course they aren't honest or either they are 1) paid, 2) have an agenda that is not in the best interest of this country or our soldiers, or 3) are delusional
LOL! True!!
That was actually still Crystalk talking, (the html italics fail across blank lines here) However, he agreed whole heartedly.
Thank you for the welcome chrissie. We were never really at LP2. Were we, Cagey? Where was it at wuzwe lost? Typical ... you never stop to ask for directions. &;-)
Looks like one of the sets from the Blue Collar Comedy Tour. I watched a DVD of that this weekend, and laughed til I hurt. Ron White and Larry the Cable Guy are off the charts funny. Foxworthy and Engvall are hilarious too, but White will make you hurt yourself.
I know, it's so painful, I had to share it.
You might as well grab it. We can either use it here or use it later for a spin off forum.
Well, I once was lost but now I'm found!
Like Sam's idea of making TOS4 a subforum, FreedomFROMum would also make a good subforum name. It could be for all the nonsense we hear from the likes of "jumbo shrimp". I hope that didn't cost me 50 cents. I really like Freedom4um.
Figures. They share a single celled structure that could very loosely be termed a "brain."
Jumbo shrimp? lmmfao...
yes, grab it. And FreedomFROMum would make another good subforum/category name, dedicated to the bots and the funny things they say. I think Freedom4um could be the name, with TOS4 or TOS4Truth a subforum/category.
I like it. Use Freedomfromum for bizarre examples of bot-speak, spin, and outrightly delusional Bush as Messiah stuff. ;)
ok and what i like is that we can still call it just "4" for short. ;)
Yeah, but if a fluffernuttery thread breaks out, we can't use that name anymore. How about "4play"?
oops, strike it in my sentence above.
Well then, it would still be educational.
lol. shoot, i'm not awake yet. i didn't do a typo. it belonged there.
Caffeine is our friend. ;)
And recreational...
jpg for our front page? ;)
LOL! Hilarious~ Welcome Flintlock !!
Hey, why not?
LOL!!!
Too funny.. and an interesting thought.. Hmm I think it might cause quite a stir LOL
Tell that to Rin-Tin-Tin!
You know the Bots,shills,AssKlowns are going to start lying about us as soon as they find out we exist, we might as well get in their face from day one.
HAHAHA! Great Flint ... high Marx!
Uh huh.. couldn't have 'said' it better :P
LOL You're too much.
You'll have to bring me up to speed Sam ... I'm soooo outta the loop on that stuff. Last thing I watched was Monty Python ....
LOL That is funny.
I missed you sooooo ... say! Have I got some great wine picks for you! Jiminey! Have you seen the January Wine Spectator w/ the "Top 100" yet?
hahaha, I'd go BROKE. I have a daughter to support!
I'm in. Anybody here to say hi to?
Love the logo change!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's going to change again shortly. we're using the name Freedom4um (Arator's idea) as the main name and keeping TOS4 as a subforum. the colors and style will remain the same. doesn't it have a welcoming, friendly feel about it? maybe it will set a tone/mood that will discourage interforum disputes? ;);)
Cool on keeping the colors.. they do have a nice feel to them.. as for the name change... either/or are good.. tho it would be cool if we could keep both on the page, somehow.. for the both have the ring of truth to them, as in what this site is for.. JMHO
As long as it asks if I turned off the outside light too, it will be ok. I keep forgetting that thing.
is yours running? whatcha got in there?
Got some cole slaw.. and a piece of cheese. Probably a biological weapon or two..
k...then i ain't coming to your house when the shtf. tull's got spam. i'll go to his.
I got a tomato and a steak & Cheese hot pocket.. Properly rationed, I think everything should be fine.
Looks like Freedom4um started on January 29, 2005. We should have a three year birthday night when Jan 29th rolls around next year.

Bush is a f**king nanny goat.
A lot of so-called conservative forums are purging this past week.
LF started LS, which is a subforum within LF for only pro-Israeli posters; you must be invited by OWK.
We all know what happened on FU. Well, maybe not.
At anyrate, today Goldi is threatening purges on LP.
And also today, there is a thread on LP about FR still throwing bewildered posters off.
Somewhat related, about a week ago a site called cryptome.org was hassled by Homeland Security. NPR actually reported that Homeland Security shutdown it down, but it wasn't quite; yet.

Plug the $79 device into your PC and it scans your hard drive for applications, favorites, and contacts from outlook. You assign commands to access all of these items.

doesn't it have a welcoming, friendly feel about it? maybe it will set a tone/mood that will discourage interforum disputes?
Then again, maybe it will go bad and call us all late at night to ask if the fridge is running.

we're using the name Freedom4um (Arator's idea) as the main name
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”—Samuel Adams
