If you had read the entire thread, you would see that answered.

Ideed I have. And while it is true he had not said that he specifically wants to take away my revolver, pump shotguns, or lever guns, he HAS said he wants to ban all my other guns (semi-automatic handguns, rifles and shotguns). I guess since he only wants half, it's ok.

There is a matter of putting your best foot forward. That point is well taken. There is also a matter of being true to yourself. ANYTHING posted on the web can be used against the second amendment cause, even if not created by those who support the second amendment. I believe your...

And the problem is you don't understand what your positions suggest. You claim you have no problem with christianity (i.e. "religion"). You then say that in certain circles, associating the second amendment with Christianity will be detrimental. This point is conceded. No one has argued...

Then perhaps you don't know what you are doing. You suggested that this image is detrimental to the right to keep and bear arms. You then said: followed by: Here is the suggestion that the association of religion and the right to keep and bear arms is harmful. Now: You just...

"The other shoe drops" or "waiting for the other shoe to drop" refers to something that inevitably follows something else. In the saying its when someone drops one shoe, the other will follow shortly (apparently this is from an old vaudeville gag). In this case, the inevitability is that...

Oooo! I could do that a couple languages and my fiancee could teach me at least three more!... Unfortunately, I don't look hispanic, japanese, indian, or chinese... Maybe I should tell them I'm canadian.

Gah, I'd love to come but having a wedding in a month seems to have removed all free time leading up to it... Maybe next time. Edit: 888!

Ahh, Θέλω first person singular, ελληνική is an adjective. Got it. Some of that greek is coming back now...

Umm... my one year of Greek (Attic) is insufficient to translate, but I think it says something like: "The greeks want my autograph too." Someone whose greek is better than mine might be able to translate better.

They'll kill you when they figure out the can opener... Anyway- I haven't considered locking my bedroom door. It is always shut as I am too light a sleeper and the noises in the house (crickets to feed a lizard...) will keep me awake otherwise. Front door is always locked. Bedroom door...
