    Tour De France 2010

    I'm afriad you know nothing - professional cycling is one of the most brutal and unrelenting sports in the history of the world. The Tour De France is three weeks of suffering and pain of the highest order.

    Tour De France 2010

    The time trails matter to be fair( Andy Schleck already half a minute behind Armstrong after today for example) and a breakaway allowed away on a flat course can do damage. But yeah it all about the mountains.

    Tour De France 2010

    Ignore all that over-hyped subversive soccer nonsense - a proper sporting competition built around suffering and history is about to start in France. I have Andy Schleck for the yellow jersey.

    Creating Terrorists, Why do we continue to do it?

    :doh Once again, the above bares no relation to my post. Nothing whatsoever. Something you haven't established in anyway, and something that I've already argued makes absolutely no sense. In fact, its pretty much a 'conspiracy theory', i.e. 'big oil' dictates the foreign policies of the...

    Creating Terrorists, Why do we continue to do it?

    This thread (or at least the last few pages) is an example of a real failure of individualism and imagination. We are still debating WMDs and terrorism because that was the original narrative set by the Bush adminstration and followed by the American media, while we are still debating oil...

    Press Freedom Index 2009

    Well...damn. Who said 'the press' wasn't subject to the same laws of the rest of us? Funnily enough, the above argument rather suggests you think people are idiots in general, as if an idiotic 'press' automatically means the people, presumebly robotic and incapable of thinking for themselves...

    Australia bans small boobed chicks in porn

    OZ is on the right track, but they got the wrong type of breasts banned - should have been fake rather then small. ;)

    Australia bans small boobed chicks in porn

    Are big feet and hands considered sexier then small feet and hands?

    Press Freedom Index 2009

    This may be a joke, but read my posts regarding the so-called 'Blasphemy law' - its unenforcable, so all-encompassing that it amounts to a contradiction, and essentially a bit of consitutional clean up that is no way intended to be actually used. ;) I'd ignore some unscrupulous Athiests...

    Kicking ass at third position as usual. :mrgreen:

    Creating Terrorists, Why do we continue to do it?

    :roll: I know it is, that was my point. However, focusing overwhelmingly on WMD's (like your earlier post did) means one misses the greater, more important context, the explanation of this context is something that I am interested, rather then getting bogged with talking points like oil and...

    Creating Terrorists, Why do we continue to do it?

    Actually I think you'll find it was an awful lot more then 100,000, the sanction regime was partially rather then totally responsible for those deaths. Obviously, the 'exceptional' work of the sanctions/inspections relates to the dismantling of Saddam's WMDs, and not to people's deaths. In...
