You need to crack a dictionary. There was indeed theft, as theft is not restricted to the removal of physical objects.

Add to that, a book is a physical object which you purchase and own outright, giving you the legal permission to give it away or loan it. A subscription to a service is not.

And people wonder why I hold ACs in such low regard.

Good thing you're AC, else when those things do not happen (and they won't), you'd be derided to the end of your days here.

FYI, the executive branch cannot do those things. True, it could attempt, but it does not have that authority and they would be thrown out ASAP if for no other reason than to avoid immediate and armed revolt. This is why we have gun rights in this country.

Hell, I would promote that it is forged far more often than a real one arrives.

You neglect to mention that the WH had a filmmaker targeted and picked up (still not charged and still under detention). I think we care about that and the lame excuse of refusing to acknowledge the terrorists involved that enabled that sideshow is not a trivial detail.

The Tea Party is not anti taxes, just anti TOO HIGH taxes, so your entire third paragraph tanks.

I note that the only thing you find worthy of interest is the WH pulling records of reporters (liberal and Dems).

"Again I'm not a supporter of Democrats..."

Your commentary says otherwise.

"When people were in small tribes and villages, crime was low."

That's the 'noble primitive' myth. It's only a myth.

No on all counts. Aging does not suck, some people think it does. Anti-aging is a prominent research field and there is quite a bit of promise in some of the newer avenues. Aging is not a horror and does not turn the brain to Jell-O, diseases are and do. Not everyone is afflicted with them.

AC defending an AC defending an AC....

Boxes in boxes in boxes. All typed by the same guy.

Difference is, that moniker has a history of posting here that can be traced back and read by anyone. An AC cannot. Whilst it is not my actual name, it's not friggin' AC. You take exception to that? Tough shit. And yes, I shall continue to be snide and smarmy to ACs boasting about themselves. Ten thousand people post AC and typing three letters at the bottom does nothing.

Dude/ette, you have proved absolutely nothing about yourself. Not one thing. Why? You're anonymous. Three initials at the bottom does nothing. Therefore, I need prove something to you why?

"I'm going to defend him against that."

And you will prove you are not him, how? Meaningless.

"SNIDE & SMARMY jackass like you'

i shall awaken at 2AM crying out in anguish at your admonition, AC.

AC's stating their creds are similar to teenagers listing their conquests - laughably ignorable.

Do you also HATE writing, HATE speaking, HATE singing? Typing is just another form of communication. If you HATE it, you probably don't type well. Learn.


By the way, if your programmatic abilities match your cut and paste abilities..... learn to edit. It's necessary in programming as well.

Poor baby (I'm 64). Just last year I wrote an English->language translator. The five languages were those I developed for my story series. I needed consistency and doing it by hand was virtually impossible, time-wise. I found that doing it programmaticly was fun, intellectually stimulating and downright easy, both mentally and physically. It also included turning the Romanized language into a custom cursive with tonal indication, floating letter attachments indicating hierarchial nuances and simply looked good. Explain how that would be boring and tedious.

By the way, I have arthritis in my knees, back and hands. Typing is easy if and only if you have learned blind typing. If you have to hunt and peck, sure it's tedious. But that's your shortcoming, not typing per se.

Oh, pardon, I just noticed you're AC (bad eyes). Troll.

You posted AC because you know damned well that the roles are actually reversed from your post.

On both counts.

Um... The American Atheist Association is comprised almost *entirely* of bigots. Don't fool yourself. Lest you think I'm just protesting because I'm religious, check many of my past posts. Solid, fifty year atheist.
