...Remember kids, this is the same "august body" that refuses to

went there.

Ach, with the "kids" reference again. Every time you do that you come
off as a condescending jerk. But I guess I shouldn't be surprized that
a condescending jerk acts like condescending jerk!

Every time Eric posts he comes off as a Chump.

Feeling the need to defend OM? Exactly what is your realtionship with
OM?


OM is short for OM-a-dick...

FOAD you phoney. Your cite is all about you and is crappy at best. And
since I'm in your killfile I can expect you to respond to my posts as
you did with this one. Took the bait hook, line and sinker. Your witto

Seek help, Eric. Preferably in the form of a bullet between your ears.

Nope, you are incentive to stay in shape and live a long life.

Every time Eric posts he comes off as a Chump.

...He's a chump *and* a troll. Which makes himi doubly deplorable.

Better a chump and a troll than being web-weenie to that crappy website
of yours. You are indeed humility-challeneged... heheheh

Truth hurts, doesn't it scumbag?

I suggested in another group that, since Pluto is now a "dwarf" planet,
we ought to re-name it Gimli.

Better yet, name it Jerry. Planets are named after mthological gods,
and Pluto was the god of the dead. So it will no longer be named after
the god of The Dead, but one of its founding members.

If Pluto is renamed Jerry, then Charon should be renamed Larry. AIUI,
Jerry & Larry do go around together.

If the two small moons had been fairly distributed, they could have been
called (IIRC) Roberta & Marilyn.

Rename Charon "Larry", and the other two Pluto moons "Darryl". Then Pluto
can be renamed "Newhart".

You're the guy that fashions himself as some sort of expert on US
highways. Right, I told you that we had the best highways in the world
but a second rate public transportation system and that truth upset
you. Further the reason for our lousy public transportation system was
by design because dumb Republicans like you keep voting in office
bought fools that would do anything to keep public transportation down
due to their handler's loss of revenue with cars and gas. Especially
gas...

Go visit Frankfurt, Germany and look at their public transportation
system and you'll stop even thinking about highways, loser...

Don't anthropomorphize solar system objects. They hate it when you do
that.
