Thanks for the quality breakdown!

His point was that this story was published in an Indian paper,which allegedly provides better coverage of British stories. Similarly, many believe that the best coverage of US event is found in British papers.

First, I missed who was saying “girls are just as good, if not better”. Did you think I said that?

Second, the specific causes responsible for boys not getting involved is complicated to be sure. I expect that multiple reasons are at play. If the Pope chooses to ban girls, then so be it, but I doubt the presence of girls is scaring away the boys.

I coach a co-ed Catholic baseball team, and none of the teams in our co-ed league seem to have any trouble filling the roster with boys willing to play alongside girls.

Perhaps you misunderstood my comment. If they choose to ban females, we will accept the decision.
Hope that helped you.

My daughter is an altar server at our parish. Most of the servers are female, as only a few boys volunteered. If this comes to pass, then c’est la vie. Our faith will accommodate the shifting ground.

I find the general tone of this event increasingly acrid. I wonder if the members of that Christian network achieved anything attending this travesty.

At one time, this event might have represented a good natured effort to bridge the political divide with humor, now it comes of as a snearing liberal echo chamber. An elitist wankfest, while Americans struggle to survive the onslaught of legislation.

The money angle is important. They appeared to be living a life similar to modern Gypsys. Grifters living off of scams, hustles and theft. Now throw in some terror seed money, and the picture is complete.

I think she’s yammering about her son having a more muscular body than the corpse in the picture.

Yes thanks for posting. It’s amazing how much heat we give off.

OK, I just spit out my lunch, which was delicious I might add.

On the other hand, the gay mafia might see such a statement as a sign of weakness and be emboldened to push for further concessions.

You can count on it. The left always leans forward. They don't stop, they wait and agitate.

Wow. She was lucky, but will never forget how close she was to checking out.

Very interesting. Maybe it’s not the Brown University kid.

That’s very interesting!! Dad is a sponsor of the marathon?

Oops, I meant post 91

No, I the guy in #96 is the Brown student.

Yea that’s the guy I was referring to. Possibly released.

Can’t say what your watching, but there’s a picture going round of a white guy with short straight hair laying face down on street. Apparently that guy was a bystander later released. Lots of chaotic reporting.

I read that the blonde guy was bystander, and later released.

Happy, happy Birthday Trig! You look like a happy boy, enjoy your cake :)

I would imagine the new Pope needs some prayers of support.

That’s what I thought as well. I believed it was part of the new bk legislation of recent years.

Maybe the “aliens” are putting the human species through a series of tests, a maze if you will, to determine our average level of intelligence. I’d say the fact that we continue to elect and follow the most incompetent of leaders speaks volumes.

The thought crossed my mind as well.

I like Kimmel, though he’s a little flat since the time change.

This dad stands as a great example for how to respond to government intrusion.

They’re like roaches IMHO. Shine the light, and they run away.

As a proud non - Facebook member, I agree!

Sadness. RIP and prayers for you and your fiancée.

I’ve never heard of this. Very cool read. Thanks for posting this story!

I haven’t used Google Reader, and but I really find the site Originalsignal.com useful. I can scan headlines fast and click through to what I want. There are a wide spread of categories. I know it’s not the same, but I like it.

FANTASTIC! I feel like safer already.

Egads that is a scary, scary thought. Catholic LA resident here. I would rather spit on his shoes, than support anything he does. Such a a scumbag weasel. /rant

lol the jokes just write themselves folks!

Adrenalin can be crazy, but repeated practice shapes your response under pressure. Muscle memory for the win!

I wonder what kind of gift she sent him. Her panties?

As a Catholic, I’m frustrated by the fathers stubbornness and lack of commitment to the principles of his faith, even when approached by a priest.

I salute you for attempting a fine Christian solution to a sensitive situation. Plenty of good, God fearing people have been born out of wedlock. That child deserved a chance to live.

My family watched this show last year, so there are plenty of reruns to catch up on, if you crave more. I’ve grown to love this guys cheerful, and yet no-nonsense nature.

I don’t know what ingredient causes it, but I get sick to my stomach every time I eat their burgers.

Exactly. Doubt very much that he killed for the truck. Sounds like a fatalistic/sarcastic remark to me.

What protests? What “good Muslims”?

I believe there is a sarcasm tag missing from his post. At least that’s how I read it.

wow. That 10mm looks like a nuke detonation! I’ll be researching that monster today.

I do respect the pride that some of you have in your own state. To be clear, this whole thread is tongue in cheek, so laughs aplenty...including me being proud of Cali. Lollolol. I carry no pride for this ship of fools. I hope to leave as soon as the wife retires.

Much respect to the great state of Tenn., but Los Angeles county has about three million more people than your whole state. I’m willing to bet that it has nearly as many guns, registered and unregistered, as well.

Approval, what approval??? This sick POS doesn’t need approval for anything he does!!!

Someone suggested it, and he approved it. I doubt he's the idea man, with regard to any subject, short of "Let's get ice cream!"

I’m sure this approval sailed through without a hitch. Birds of a feather.

I live in LB as well. Its both scary and hilarious to hear abt this trash can law. I bet there are countless laws that I violate every month, without the slightest clue. I feel like such an outlaw ;)

I live in Long Beach, and of course I voted against this stupid measure. Most of the voters think there is some magical pool of money being hoarded by THE MAN. They think if they force the man to pay up, then justice is served and everyone will be happy. Hope you’re happy on the unemployment line.

I’ve bought from ctd, and I’m surprised to hear this news. Wonder what’s happening behind the scene?
