10. I endorse neither candidate....
...but will vote for either one in the GE. I simply posted a couple of inanimate objects to reflect them (sue me, I'm human).

Everyone can draw their own conclusions.

32. Not to go on a huge tangent or anything - but it's the best $50.00 I've spent on a kitchen appliance
I make scrambled eggs/omelets - pancake batter - smoothies - tomato soup - alfredo sauce - 'iced' drinks - milk shakes - all sorts of stuff w/it. I bought mine in (I think) 2004-5 (?) and it still works like a charm (in fact I've bought it as gifts for two people who used it at my house and loved it.

I keep it in the cupboard b/c it's so small - and everything but the base can go into the dishwasher.

Now it's almost total plastic and I'm sure that it'll fall apart some day - but It's been worth it's price to me (and easier use and clean up after than a bigger blender/mixer).

heh - I totally need to contact the company for a commission! :hi:

29. Clinton: "I am a dire wolf, prey-stalking, lethal prowler."
Edited on Wed Feb-27-08 06:41 PM by Occam Bandage
Obama: I am a hunter, horse-mounted, wolf-stabbing.

Clinton: I am a horsefly, horse-stinging, hunter-throwing.

Obama: I am a spider, fly-consuming, eight legged.

Clinton: I am a snake, spider-devouring, posion-toothed.

Obama: I am an ox, snake-crushing, heavy footed.

Clinton: I am an anthrax, butcher, bacterium, warm-life destroying.

Obama: I am a world, space-floating, life nurturing.

Clinton: I am a nova, all-exploding... planet-cremating.

Obama: I am the Universe -- all things encompassing, all life embracing.

Clinton: I am Anti-Life, the Beast of Judgement. I am the dark at the end of everything. The end of universes, gods, worlds... of everything. Sss. And what will you be then, Dreamlord?

Obama: I am hope.


(points to anyone who gets the reference)

36. J Robert Oppenheimer? Bhagavad-Gita?
Edited on Thu Feb-28-08 11:45 AM by Armstead

We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, "Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." I suppose we all thought that one way or another.

-J. Robert Oppenheimer
