I was curious to how everyone keeps informed via news and daily happenings. Do you use the web? Papers? Watch Good Morning America? Watch the evening news? A bit of each?

Personally, I read Newsday...watch Fox 5 for the weather and such, and do look at the Wall Street Journal (mostly to piss me off, b/c WSJ is pro-business fodder). Web-wise I get newsfeeds from Moreover.com, CNN Breaking News, and I have a Yahoo personal page set up with feeds from AP. Sounds more fancy than it is, b/c alot is tech news, movies shit, and I don't always look at everything, but I get it just the same.

Seeing as how Snuka and I got such a 'WARM' welcome when we 'visited' rf, and seeing as how we have a recent influx of these retards from rf, I just wanted to point a few things out to the dickless whiney ass nicey-nice "I love you, you love me, fuck me up against an apple tree" asswipes that have come along.

1. Welcome to hell. Enjoy your stay. I will be your host - the retarded midget.
2. This is not rf. We are not nice people. We don't love each other or pretend to love each other and unless there's enough to go around for everyone, we don't care who's fucking who (unless there's video to be shared)
3. You will be violated at will, at random and you will sit there and enjoy it like the good little bitches that you are.
4. Whining and complaining will only make things worse. Unless you complain to maymay, in which case, he'll blow you and then walk away. It won't resolve the issue but you will get a toothless blowjob out of the deal.

Any questions? Who gives a fuck? Finally, to paraphrase the words of the immortal CBH - Welcome to camp nicey-nice, now sit down and shut the fuck up!

In an effort to bring some balance to the "What do you Hate" thread, what is it that you enjoy?

I like waking up and having the java already brewed.
I am barely awake in the morning as it is and would rather not have to bother brewing a pot of coffee.

What do you enjoy? What makes the day better for you?

ok hes fresh meat and im throwing him to the wolves... have fun!

The Andrea Yates thing made me ponder something. Suppose you get a prophecy and learn who the anti-Christ is but he's 6 months when you learn. Would you be willing to kill a child knowing that he is the anti-Christ?

The New York Rangers, battling for their first playoff berth in five years, acquired left wing Martin Rucinsky and center Roman Lyashenko from the Dallas Stars on Tuesday for left wings Manny Malhotra and Barrett Heisten.


Still doesn't solve the defense problem, but that's the trade.

INS APPROVED TERRORISTS' VISAS
By ADRIAN SAINZ Associated Press Writer


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


MIAMI (AP) . Six months after two terrorists died in the World Trade Center attack, the Florida flight school where they trained has received their student visa approval forms from the Immigration and Naturalization Service.

Huffman Aviation received the paperwork Monday acknowledging the INS approvals for Mohamed Atta, 33, of Egypt, and Marwan Al-Shehhi, 23, of the United Arab Emirates.

Atta and Al-Shehhi trained at Huffman in Venice, Fla., in July 2000, and were aboard the separate flights that struck the World Trade Center towers.

The two initially entered the United States on visitor's visas but applied for an M-1 student visa, given to immigrants attending technical schools in the United States.

A spokesman for the immigration service, Russ Bergeron, said the INS already had notified the men and the school last summer about the approvals. He described the paperwork Huffman received this week as ``backup notification.''

The INS approved Atta's request in July 2001 and Al-Shehhi's request the following month, Bergeron said.

``The important thing to recognize is the decisions to change their status were made ... before Sept. 11, and at the time there was no information made available to INS regarding these people and their link to terrorism,'' Bergeron said.

Both men were cleared to stay in the United States until Oct. 1, 2001, according to the forms, which were provided to The Associated Press by Rudi Dekkers, owner and president of the flight school.

``When they hit the buildings they were approved to be here,'' Dekkers said.

Bergeron attributed the embarrassing delay to a backlog of documents at a federal paperwork processing center in London, Ky. Foreign students are generally allowed to study in the United States as long as they apply for student visas, he said.

But John Conyers, the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, said the notification was a sign of the Bush administration's ``misguided focus in pursuit of homeland security.''

``I am astonished that while the INS is fixated on detaining and rounding up countless Arab-Americans without any justification, it has failed to take basic steps to ensure that visas are not issued to known terrorists,'' said Conyers, D-Mich.

U.S. authorities believe Atta was aboard American Airlines Flight 11, which struck the north tower of the trade center, and that Al-Shehhi was aboard United Airlines Flight 175, which struck the south tower 17 minutes later.

Dekkers said Atta and Alshehhi completed the paperwork on Aug. 29, 2000, just before they began their six-month flight instruction program at the school.

Dekkers, who said he faced scrutiny in the media after the attacks for admitting the students, said the forms showed he had followed the law.

The forms, filled out by an assistant at Huffman, indicated that both men met the English language requirements to study at the school. Atta listed his nationality as Egyptian, while Alshehhi said he was from United Arab Emirates.

On the form, Atta's name is spelled ``Mohomed.'' The documents indicated the academic term lasting up to 12 months would cost $27,300.

Both men studied at the Technical University in Hamburg, received pilot training at Huffman and practiced their flying on a Boeing 727 flight simulator in the Miami suburb of Opa-locka.

Thank god, at least the country hasn't gone totally insane yet. I hope they kill this bitch nice and slow.

I decided to make this thread for people posting to say if/when they want to play a game like jeopardy, scrabble, monopoly so something can be arranged at different times.

that being said- anyone want to play?

N.E.R.D. website


So I'm not a huge Hip-hop or R&B fan, but for some reason I've been really looking forward to this album. These guys (Neptunes) have been around for years producing tracks for just about everyone you could think of. N.E.R.D. (No One Ever Really Dies) is the name they've adopted as a solo artist, and will I assume, continue to use for their original work.

"In Search Of" is the debut release for this group thats actually been working together since the early 90's. Growing up in Virginia, they played in several groups, and nothing really worked out for them until they started producing. Looking at their credits, it's basically a who's who of modern music. They havent been limited to just R&B/Hip-Hop groups. This album is a mix of a little bit of everything that they've been into for so many years but couldn't really do on other people's tracks.

Giving this a first listen really hasn't blown me away. The album production is amazing, has some great hooks, and spectacular singing. But the songs are somewhat lacking. Don't get me wrong, the album is still superior to alot of things out there (IMHO), but I just felt that the songs just didn't really stand out based on their writing alone. I can't wait to listen to this album a few more times to really get into the songs, and dissect them for each part. A first listen to an album is always very different from when you listen a few more times, so I will do a follow up after a few more listens.


On first listen though, I give this a 4 out of 5, and would reccomend the album if you're into Hip-Hop/R&B. If it's not your cup of tea, go check out their website, and listen a bit first.

Preview the album here.
