  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) That was never really a concern to me. Nothing in the original post stated that as an intention, nor did I assume it would be. (...) Indeed. I never really thought of it as something relevant to the art of building with Lego. True it may (...) (20 years ago, 16-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

"Dave Schuler" <orrex@excite.com> wrote in message news:I43pKt.LII@lugnet.com... (...) Bah! At least they're ever mentioned by the media either one. Show me a single poll by a major news outlet that lists a "third party" candidate as an option. (20 years ago, 16-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) why, oh why do we always have to have a "gay side" to everything in society? isn't it enough that we see homosexuality in all forms of media on a daily basis? how does anyone corellate sexual orientation with lego building? it doesn't make (...)

  Re: Lavender Brick Society
 
(...) I agree with you Allister. If there was a gay newsgroup on LUGNET, and someone posted sexual material (of whatever preference), then that would be in violation of the TOS. But if people posting to a gay LUGNET newsgroup never mentioned (...) (20 years ago, 16-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) You edited out everything but what was convenient to your attack and you think you won't be called on it? You missed your calling, John, you should be heading the election to re-elect Bush. :-) -->Bruce<-- (20 years ago, 16-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: Microsoft and IBM in secret plot?
 
(...) Ideaology. People don't want to believe that their candidate can do any wrong because the alternative is electing a guy that they disagree with. So, they stick their head in the sand, and pretend like these things aren't fundamental flaws that (...) (20 years ago, 16-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Fair and Balanced, as always.
 
(...) Well, I beg your pardon, but has the document been proven to be a forgery? And, if so, has CBS been shown to have had foreknowledge that it was forged? No? Then it's not at all inaccurate to refer to it as a "possibly incorrect aspect of a (...) (20 years ago, 15-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

(URL) let me see if I have this straight. Robert Novak, a stain on the fabric of humanity, faces no pressure for his deliberate and knowing leak of a CIA operative's name (a Federal crime) in an apparent effort to intimidate a critic of Bush, and (...)

(...) A quick Brickshelf search reveals this one as well: (URL) sure I've seen others out there. Since minifig designs already exist for cowboys and Indians, construction workers, police, etc, this is pretty straightforward. Bruce (20 years ago, 15-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Microsoft and IBM in secret plot?
 
(...) Jeez, you Canadians don't know anything. Americans like Bush because "he keeps us safe," "he's a likeable guy," and "he has strong morals and values." All right, the real reasons are these: he has terrified most Americans into believing that (...) (20 years ago, 15-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

In this case, repetition obviously doesn't teach the donkey-- Looking back at the companies that Dubya the Idiot was in charge of, looking at his record in the forces, and his personal life, a la cocaine and alcohol, and yet he still became (...)

She doesn't confirm the memos as real, but confirms Bush's commanding officer's opinions (...) (20 years ago, 15-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Microsoft and IBM in secret plot?

Alas, I no longer have any examples of his messages, but I remember the superscripting looked different - I don't know if that was (...) (20 years ago, 15-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Microsoft and IBM in secret plot?
 
(...) Well sure, but that's the whole desire of the Bush camp, isn't it? Don't pay any attention to the issues relevant to Dubya's competence or fitness for leadership; simply focus on whether or not a "th" could or couldn't have been superscripted (...)
