Was watching Fox and Friends First Edition this am while getting dressed (Lauren Green is hothothot, plus she's a classical pianist) and they had an item about North Korea's Kim Jong Il apparently apologizing to the Chinese foreign minister for their nuke test. Someone on the program remarked...

Are these guys nuts or what? Guardian Fox Google it all you want.

North Korea announces nuclear test (Filed: 03/10/2006) http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2006/10/03/ukorea.xml Maybe they will just blow themselves up like they did with their last missile test.

http://upi.com/NewsTrack/view.php?StoryID=20060902-082144-1563r I have no idea why little Kim has his little-girl panties in a bunch. It's not like it's a reliable system yet. Heck, it's even an impossible system, if you believe the critics. We just got lucky with one hit, and that was...

I have been informed the Carolina Skeptics group is no longer active. I have been in contact with Prof. Eric Carlson at WFU, the former coordinator of the defunct group. He is more than willing to help others take over the reins of the group if we can only get enough interested people...

Is Mr. Sanger simply a paparatzy on this one? Who is pushing this issue? Is there really any news here? If indeed the US is considering a different approach, why can't the White House simply say what the National Security Council recommended and reveal that approach? This is, of course...

In another thread a discussion began about american history and the civil war. Rather than pollute someone else's thread, I thought I would move the discussion here. Many years ago I was visiting a friend in New York for christmas. I left right after school let out and arrived about 10 days...

There's a quiet counter-revolution going on in Asheville, North Carolina. Last month, Rev. Joe Hoffman, pastor of the First Congregational United Church of Christ, decided he was not going to perform civil marriages until he can perform them for all couples who come to him to be married. He will...

History records that the North won the civil war in America, but is this really the case? The South had the advantage of better weapons, while the North had the advantage of larger land mass; in turn the South would not have the man power to cover that much terroritory and their supplies would...

Well? Why not. What kind of example are we setting? Who do we think we are? Or, has the United Nations voted us in to be the world's guardian? if that has ben the case, then my question is answered. if *not*, then it goes unanswered.

This is an attempt to have one meeting place for a couple of questions that have been scattered all over several threads. I've been trying unsuccessfully to get some of the most prominent critics of the Iraq war to answer a couple of questions: 1) We pretty much all agree that Saddam Hussein...

If you are even aware of their existence, it would seem that nothing good ever happens in either state. Dru Sjodin who worked at the same mall I did when I went to UND is almost certainly dead. Bill Janklow probably on his way to jail for driving like an idiot.
