ParticipantAfter that, we can combine plumbers with doctors. After all, the body is pretty much just one big plumbing system. Call in an electrician when brain stuff is involved.
Sorry about that.
Bad idea. They both wear uniforms. They don’t do the same jobs.

Participant[quote=Rustico]Relishing in revenge does not reflect well on any society. This is true especially when it is a symbolic revenge that misdirects much capacity for critical thinking.I am having visions of that American soldier who was drug around on a chain tied to a pick-up through the streets of Somalia.

We don’t often agree, but we do on this. There is no honor in the celebration of death. Ever.

So why I am so object to his death? It is exactly what he wanted and needed. To die a Martry at the hands of the US and to rally his fighters. Not to die alone, miserable, and not a martyr like a rat in a cage…
[/quote]I agree it could have been handled a lot better – he deserved to rot in a cage, or at least be pig food. Burying him quickly “according to Islamic traditions” was a HUGE mistake (we’re apologetic even in a moment like that?? I’d have thrown him into an alligator pit). But I also don’t think he looked like a martyr. He lived and died a coward, in better conditions than most of his minions have ever seen, and they’ll realize that.
The important thing is that the net effect for them is demoralizing (the most clever and resourceful among them cannot escape us), no matter how they try to spin it, and boy will they try to spin it…[/quote]
Burial at sea was the perfect choice for a dead body. (Had he been alive, it would have been a whole different story.) At sea, there is no grave. No memorial to permanently celebrate his martyrdom. I suspect the location where the corpse was dumped (probably still bleeding, and well weighted, in accordance with Islamic law, of course) won’t ever be disclosed for that same reason.

Participant[quote=briansd1]I wanted an Asian, professional female housemate because I trust that they are clean and pay rent on time without ever having to be asked… but that’s antoher story.[/quote]
Geez Brian. They? Really? They? Your experiences with some Asians, and some professionals, and some females, tells you that they will all act that way? You do realize that “they” is the genesis of all bigotry? Biases which become prejudices by the attribution to an entire population, a characteristic exhibited by some members of that population. It doesn’t matter that you’ve identified good characteristics. It doesn’t matter if “they” are Asian professional women, or Republicans or Conservatives or gays or any other population. Stop writing that shit. And even more importantly, stop thinking that way.
