Bill Cosby has more harsh words for black community
Friday, July 2, 2004 Posted: 2:41 PM EDT (1841 GMT)
CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) -- Bill Cosby went off on another tirade against the black community Thursday, telling a room full of activists that black children are running around not knowing how to read or write and "going nowhere."
He also had harsh words for struggling black men, telling them: "Stop beating up your women because you can't find a job."

Can We Be Good Without God?
-R. Albert Mohler, Jr.
The greatest moral question hanging over America's increasingly secular culture is this: Can we be good without God? That vital question--though almost always unasked--is the backdrop for most of the issues aflame in the media, the schools, and the courts.

Blowing Up [You *must* read this article]
Taleb is Greek-Orthodox Lebanese and his first language was French, and in his pronunciation the name Niederhoffer comes out as the slightly more exotic Nieder hoffer. "Here was a guy living in a mansion with thousands of books, and that was my dream as a child," Taleb went on. "He was part chevalier, part scholar. My respect for him was intense." There was just one problem, however, and it is the key to understanding the strange path that Nassim Taleb has chosen, and the position he now holds as Wall Street's principal dissident. Despite his envy and admiration, he did not want to be Victor Niederhoffer -- not then, not now, and not even for a moment in between. For when he looked around him, at the books and the tennis court and the folk art on the walls -- when he contemplated the countless millions that Niederhoffer had made over the years -- he could not escape the thought that it might all have been the result of sheer, dumb luck.

Pat Tillman Killed in Treacherous Territory
|
|
|
|
By Greg Palkot
I didn't know Specialist Pat Tillman, the NFL football star-turned U.S. Army Ranger. But I do know the rugged terrain where he was killed this week. This past month I was embedded with the 1st Battalion 501st Parachute Infantry Regiment, the conventional soldiers who work the same border area between Afghanistan and Pakistan where Tillman was killed. It is Badlands.

A Paragon Rising Above the Madness
|
|
|
|
" On Tuesday the best man I know will do what he always does on the 21st of the month. He'll sit down and pen a love letter to his best girl. He'll say how much he misses her and loves her and can't wait to see her again. Then he'll fold it once, slide it in a little envelope and walk into his bedroom. He'll go to the stack of love letters sitting there on her pillow, untie the yellow ribbon, place the new one on top and tie the ribbon again.

When you're feeling low...
|
|
|
|
"At times when I am feeling low,
I hear from a friend and then
My worries start to go away
And I am on the mend.
In spite of all that doctors know,
And their studies never end,
The best cure of all when spirits fall
Is a kind note from a friend."
-- John Wooden

About that Reality TV...
|
|
|
|
" Must. Restrain. Self. From. Ranting. About. Reality. TV. Sucking. Ass. And. Resume. Speaking. At. Normal. Speed. No, screw that: you know something, America, if you look at these TV shows and find yourself thinking, "Whoa, these are like, real people, except they're doing more interesting things than me," then the solution is NOT sitting around on your ass watching TV! The solution is getting out there and doing something interesting. Unless... well, unless you really are just useless, uninteresting pustules, in which case, I guess stay at home and watch your Reality TV and dream about getting your own 15 minutes of fame someday on a yet-to-be-created show about Real People Who Watch A Lot of Reality TV so I don't have to deal with you. You know, out there in reality.
Sorry 'bout that. It happens once every 6 months or so. I just gotta vent."

Courtesy Rant
|
|
|
|
This is a courtesy rant which will probably also appear on my own site soon. ;) Somebody needs to add some meat to this site! =P
Alright, this little rants, as titled is about cars. I'm not going to bore you with the details of my car, Igor, nor am I going to rave about how cars are made these days, or what cars are most reliable, fastest, etc. So, if that's what you're looking for, you, my friend, are very, very, very lost. So pull out a roadmap and get away from this rant.
