Who cares if half the country can't find Iraq on a map? Half the country (or more) doesn't vote, legislators and presidents do pretty much as they please once elected anyway, and if you think the smart people running the government aren't going to con you into wars and out of money all day, every day, all year, every year for the rest of eternity, then you're definitely one of the stupid.

Look at who they elect and tell me the stupid don't vote....

Ah yes, I know the answer to this one. Do you?

OK, CP, at the risk of bringing on more circulatory issues, did you hear that a Colorado school has banned "tag", because it leads to "conflict"?

I can only assume that it's a cunning plan to make the kids so bloated and weak that when they finally snap in high school from the steady diet of ********, they'll be too weak to aim an assault rifle at their teachers and classmates.

yep, cuz, see, some of the more "stout" kids can't keep up, and lord knows we need them to feel good about
themselves...
when i was a kid, the gym teacher would shout from the other end of the track, "move it fatass, a snail is gainin' on ya"

Val...can you say DUCKS RULE!! (g) The ONLY cup worth having resides in California these days!! (g)

Cam, the Ducks won the Cup but one of the unique things about the Stanley Cup is that each player on the winning team gets the cup for a few days to do with pretty much as they please. So today the Stanley Cup is in the Ottawa area.

Val...yeah...I went on a trip to Canada too this winter...but I came HOME!! (g)

That's nice that somebody brought it to Ottawa. It's the only way they'll ever get to see it!
'Round Detroit, cup sightings got to be a ho-hum sort of thing after 3 championships recently.
Hamilton will have a cup before Otttawa does!

XORT, Hamilton will never get a team, unless Hamilton, somehow, moves to the US. Detroit cup string is over. You should have savored those moments when the wings last won which btw was 2001/2002, almost ancient history now. If you want to get a glimpse of the cup in the foreseeable future, you could always make a trip to Toronto to the NHL Hall of Fame.
