This is not a great book because it's not great. Let's face it. Ulysses is great. The works of Shakespeare are great. Lots of other books are great. But this book does not achieve greatness because it's not. That said, it's a good book. There are many good books and this is one of them. Fortunately, the authors found a way to synthesize their talents and render this a good book by managing to achieve what any good book achieves, and that is that it rises to the level of being a good book. So, in summary, my conclusion is that although it's a good book, it's not a great one.

Twit For Tat. by God Of Wine 06/09/2009, 6:44 AM
Yup.
One out of every ten people who have a Twitter account comprise almost one hundred percent of the crap you will find there. For every subscriber that regularly “tweets”, there are nine dormant subscribers doing something else. Like watching paint dry.
Rightfully so.
Webster dictionary describes a Twit as a “silly annoying person”. Twitter is very aptly named and/or prophetic.

Chuck, you got me there. I was lying. Actually I was going hi hi to myself, which is French for Ha ha, I might actually have been snickering, which is the same in both languages and perhaps all languages. Hi Hi/ Ha Ha is what my generation used to write when something funny came their way but I was just trying to pretend to be cool...... (I have a weakness for puns, even vulgar ones).

I'm a simple housewife, and I don't have any academic study of science, but I'm happy that I cold see, with my son and daughter (12&10 y. old), those images, that are soo wonderfull. I hope that you could show more of it. Thank you, Emily, (Portugal)

Many years ago, I was almost killed in a car accident. During the minutes when I was between life and death, I had what I later learned was a near death experience. People asked me to describe the feeling, but until I saw my first picture of the Eagle Nebula, I couldn't describe it. Now when asked to describe the experience, I tell them "I felt like you'll feel when you see your first image of this nebula" Thank you Hubble.

Doesn't anyone watch television? There was some worlds greatest mysteries revealed or some crap a few years ago with a team of three people showing how they made crop circles. All though some are extremely elaborate with intricate details and patterns, SWIM believes 99% (he has been wrong once before) to be a hoax. Also, SWIM doesn't think super intelligent beings would waste time making pretty things in fields anyway...
SWIM does however believe in some pretty funky shit too so, who is SWIM to judge...
Sunday, June 07, 2009 4:45:26 PM
There are definately hoaxers out there, probably the majority of them are.
But the "Real" circles defy explanation. There are magnetic traces in the soil. The nodes of the wheat have been blown out as if by microwaves. And the size, complexity, and perfection of certain circles, which appear overnight without any witnesses, defy explanation. The energy that one feels in these circles is different as well, for those who are more sensitive to it.
Skepticism is a good thing. But it highly unlikely that some of these are made with a few people with planks and string.

It has been shown time and again that is no problem for humans to make incredible complex crop circle formations with an outstanding accuracy. Saying that this can't be made by human hands is kinda insulting for the human race because we just can.

No surprise here. The moment the story broke in the news I knew his arrest was imminent. There is something to be said about color in this story though. Not the drivel that i am reading in the "posts" but what I am not reading. Sure, this sort of "killing" is not rare in the white mans world, but it is in the black mans. Blacks, it seems usually die on the streets as opposed to indoors at the hand of a relative. Perhaps this is an issue that should be studied closer?What are the statitistics for Hispanics and Arabs? How are we all being killed? Gun,knife,by hand? What race prefers what? Then we can tackle what political race they backed and whether or not they voted for Bush at anytime.

He hypothesizes the trip may have to do with reproduction, another area that has long baffled basking shark researchers.
The sharks are currently listed as "vulnerable" on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, due to the high value of their fins which are the key ingredient for shark fin soup, a tasteless but symbolic Chinese delicacy.

Page three of the Gazette reports on Margate's first Easter without Dreamland, reporting disappointment amongst visitors and a bleak outlook for the town's future:
No Dreamland, no reason to return say day-trippers
Disappointed visitors say they won't be coming back to Margate now Dreamland has closed.
Instead they plan to head for other resorts such as Southend, Brighton, Yarmouth and even Herne Bay.
Alison Spalding has been visiting Margate regularly for 24 years. "Without Dreamland it hasn't got the oomph to attract tourists. I think Herne Bay is better now, it always seems packed."
Maureen Farr, from Tunbridge Wells, said: "We've walked along the beach, been on the donkey rides and trampolines - there's not really anything else to do."
In the Punch and Judy pub, barmaid Katie Bridgland has had to break the news of Dreamland's closure to visitors.
"People have been coming in and asking about it, especially if they've got children," she said. "Their reaction has generally been that there is no reason to bring their children here any more."
Derek Pegden, who runs the beach swings and rides, said even when the sun shone over Easter business was slow.
"We haven't seen a coach party," he said. "On Sunday the sun was out but at 3.30 it died a death. People have been asking what is there for the older children to do."
Elaine Burns and Susan Gregory-Cremer had come to Margate with their children especially to go to Dreamland.
"We thought it was open, we are well disappointed," Elaine said. "Our friends went to Thorpe Park, but we decided to come here because it is closer. Now we don't know what to do, it is terrible."
Clare Creighton enjoyed going to Dreamland as a child. Now her daughter Ciara (five) has to make do with a donkey ride. "Now there is just a sandy beach, other than that there isn't much else you can do."
Westbrook councillor Mick Tomlinson said the lack of visitors was obvious as he walked around the town.
"This is the saddest Easter weekend we have had for a long time," he said.

i have really small eyes and people ask me if im asian.
i have really long straight toes but the toe next to my big toe is longer than the big toe so it looks like my foot is flipping people off
I am in 8th grade but like 4ft 8in
I have boy hair
When I think, I tend to look towards the side.
i have some other ppls flaws but my mane ones are... my right eye is more open then my left eye... i also have the second toe is longer than my big toe... i have a kiss (the band) tongue... i also have a high pitch voice that everyone makes fun of me for... and i have a nice but butt i have really small boobs and im in my early teens!!...
my vagina is [plump?] :D
I'm fat, I'm paler than anyone I've ever met, my boobs are too big... And my foreheard is too big. And I'm very nearsighted. I'm pretty awesome though - I got myself out of a ten year long clinical depression. Try that on for size!
I'm impatient and have no confidence.
I've been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, which means the part of my brain responsible for communication is smaller than normal. I suck at social interaction, but I derive an enormous amount of amusement from social warfare amongst the social elite.
i have too many friends..and all my friends think i blow them off...and i also think that im ugly..but when i REALLY look at myself in a mirror i go "This is the real me..i am different than everyone in every way..nothing is better than being myself" Shane..you made me realize..that i can be myself and still have horrible flaws..Thanks.

This is nearly exactly what I saw on my second trip. Except instead of standing exactly like this she was simply lying down similarly and with whiter more porcelain skin. She was also undressed from the waist down clearly.
I haven't seen anything like the black red-energy goddess or similar visions in the various links that have been posted of galleries of artists.
A rough photoshop CS4 rendering the that energy clad goddess of sorts

It's every parents worst nightmare, at least it definitely is one of mine! You're in a shopping mall or at the zoo, you turn around for a moment and when you look back your child is gone! I've had nightmares about this and we did actually lose Lisa when she was 2 for only a minute but it felt like hours!
We were in a zoo in Holland, Lisa was walking ahead of us, turned into the next path, which split in 2. We didn't know which one she had taken and she didn't immediately answer our calls. It was the most horrible, scary feeling I've ever experienced and one I hope will never, ever happen again!

"What do you think the homosexuals are gonna do when they finally get what they want?
When it's Doomsday?
My guess: they're gonna throw a parade...
And the costumes will be vibrant and colorful,
And the floats will be fantastic
And jism will be shot into the air like ticker tape
But it won't fertilize anyone
'Cause the lesbians brought umbrellaaaas..."

These astronauts should be respected. We are all little tiny specs of dust and were juts crawling out to view stuff... and to blame stuff on jews? where did that come from.. we are all from the same tank of primordial goo... try to learn why you hate and why you like to deny... why your life even exists. Why are we here? Do you know... does anyone?

The article refers to Ms Mendez as a "Single Mom." The woman is a widow, for god's sake. Reader's that do not finish to read the article, will go away thinking of Ms Mendez as another latin "unwed" mother in trouble. Time to end stereotypes.

"My dear Mrs. Budd,
In 1894 a friend of mine shipped as a deck hand on the Steamer Tacoma, Capt. John Davis. They sailed from San Francisco for Hong Kong China. On arriving there he and two others went ashore and got drunk. When they returned the boat was gone.
At that time there was famine in China. Meat of any kind was from $1 to 3 Dollars a pound. So great was the suffering among the very poor that all children under 12 were sold for food in order to keep others from starving. A boy or girl under 14 was not safe in the street. You could go in any shop and ask for steak -- chops -- or stew meat. Part of the naked body of a boy or girl would be brought out and just what you wanted cut from it. A boy or girls behind which is the sweetest part of the body and sold as veal cutlet brought the highest price.
John staid there so long he acquired a taste for human flesh. On his return to N.Y. he stole two boys one 7 one 11. Took them to his home stripped them naked tied them in a closet. Then burned everything they had on. Several times every day and night he spanked them -- tortured them -- to make their meat good and tender.
First he killed the 11 year old boy, because he had the fattest ass and of course the most meat on it. Every part of his body was Cooked and eaten except the head -- bones and guts. He was Roasted in the oven (all of his ass), boiled, broiled, fried and stewed. The little boy was next, went the same way. At that time, I was living at 409 E 100 st., near -- right side. He told me so often how good Human flesh was I made up my mind to taste it.
On Sunday June the 3 --1928 I called on you at 406 W 15 St. Brought you pot cheese -- strawberries. We had lunch. Grace sat in my lap and kissed me. I made up my mind to eat her.
On the pretense of taking her to a party. You said Yes she could go. I took her to an empty house in Westchester I had already picked out. When we got there, I told her to remain outside. She picked wildflowers. I went upstairs and stripped all my clothes off. I knew if I did not I would get her blood on them.
When all was ready I went to the window and called her. Then I hid in a closet until she was in the room. When she saw me all naked she began to cry and tried to run down the stairs. I grabbed her and she said she would tell her mamma.
First I stripped her naked. How she did kick -- bite and scratch. I choked her to death, then cut her in small pieces so I could take my meat to my rooms. Cook and eat it. How sweet and tender her little ass was roasted in the oven. It took me 9 days to eat her entire body. I did not fuck her tho I could of had I wished. She died a virgin."

In this case, if we hold to a strict hermeneutic, this "book of prophecy" does not refer to the Bible as a whole but to the Book of Revelation. However, the Book of Revelation is considered to be the completion of the Bible, the ribbon around the package, if you will.
