yeah i suppose, but FLAWED IS ONE THING, killing Kurt and becoming wildly famous in the process is another.

Hey Par, maybe you should hit up statcounter.com and get a new counter. It may not mean much, but I kinda miss the numbers racking up. Or if you got one maybe make it visible?

Tay, you might be interested in this. You were mentioning something about an in-browser FTP client?

What do you expect from magazines and the like. Everyone can be artificailly airbrused, it is only when you accept a person for everything that they are, flaw and all that it truly means something. So by Tay saying he thinks Courtney Love is hot maybe he is accepting her for the person she is. Maybe you guys should stop bashing him, he doesn't hate himself, he is just accepting a flawed person for who they really are. No one is perfect in real life it is only by accepting a persons for who they really are can you find real love... This just sounds like high minded bull shit, no one believes in these high moral ideas anymore(or if they ever did). Well can't help you out anymore than that Tay. I think you are on your own.

"It has to do with the culture of life." -- Bill Frist, US Republican Senate Majority Leader.

The US House of Representatives and Senate have passed laws that "block the removal of Terri Schiavo's feeding tube." If you don't know the story, it has to do with a Florida woman who suffered brain damage from a heart failure in 1990. She remains, according to doctors, in a "persistent vegetative state."

Her husband contends that she told him she would not want her life maintained artificially, whereas her parents do not believe this, and have fought him every step of the way to remove the feeding tube that maintains her life. They've filed with the Supreme Court on the grounds that Terri Schiavo's "religious freedom and due process rights" are being violated. Anyway, this has sparked a huge effort from Florida and federal lawmakers to fight the removal of her feeding tube.

Have we carried things a bit too far here? There is a difference between removing implements that artificially maintain a persistent condition like this and actively killing someone. Let's be clear here, this is not euthanasia, nor is it doctor-assisted suicide. Neither of these issues exist, because neither of those cases apply. Euthanasia is the administration of a medical procedure that would bring about death, not the withholding of medical procedures that would save lives; and doctor-assisted suicide is just that: a physician aiding a patient in the taking of her own life. (Of course, drawing this distinction is going down a questionable road of determining which procedures should be justifiably withheld under which conditions, but this is no more questionable than the difference between a physician being unable to save a patient and malpractice.)

Aren't we (and it becomes we when legislators get involved) are to a greater extent "playing God" when we keep this woman in these conditions alive for fifteen years than by removing medical interventions and allowing her to die "naturally."

Of course, it doesn't matter so much, does it? I mean, it's not so much this woman's life that's important, but the political points you get with religious groups when you stand up for "life" (by any means necessary, apparently.)

all I'm going to say is this: stylists do wondrous things to people. Courtney, Avril, Kirstin et al. can all look both amazingly gorgeous and amazingly awful, depending on the clothes, hair, makeup etc. it's possible with pretty much anyone. (I mean, yeah, body and bone structure do have a lot to do with it too, but a lot of the 'beauty' we see is applied to them, and we really need to look at the canvases all the paint's been thrown on... if you really want to get down to it. hell, even actresses and models have excess hair or back fat or whatever, they've just had a team of professionals groom them.)

Sorry Tay,

Kirsten, Avril, very hot... Ashlee, so-so.
Courtney, not so much.

My sincerest apologies.

On the nerd on nerd violence department, two mmft artist are trying to kill each other virtually. That mmft picture I posted last time is drawn by a artist named "Nataku", another artist named "Cyraxis" was the past champion winning 3 tournaments before. Now everyone has jumped onto Nataku's bandwagon and sees Cyraxis as past his prime. Actually he kinda is, all his designs are derivatives of his last designs (read they all look the same). If I was comparing this to Gundam Artist, then Cyraxis would be Kunio Okawara and Nataku would be Hajime Katoki except everyone knows Cyraxis is no good anymore. Well can't say that I blame him for being mad, Cyraxis is just resting on his laurels and not really challenging himself anymore. Well I'll stay out of this one and watch the fireworks fly.

Google Maps now shows Edmonton in detail. I expect never to have to give people directions to my house now. If you have a computer and an internet connection, I'm giving you the address and you're on your own, kiddies.
