General Off-Topic Board / Re: Please tell me something about Vegas.« on: August 24, 2005, 10:37:53 AM »
I lived in Vegas for nearly 3 years. In my opinion, the Hard Rock is by far the best casino to party and gamble at. They even have swim up black jack in the pool and a craps table on the deck. The crowd there is also much more hip than that at the Palms. Make sure you save a day at home to rest when you get back. You'll definately need it!

General Off-Topic Board / Re: East Coast Ski Advice« on: August 22, 2005, 06:21:04 AM »
Hey guys,
Thanks for the advice. I knew that there was skiing in VT, but I didn't realize how many nice resorts they had. I am going to look into Okemo and Killington. Before I moved out here, I was in Salt Lake City on business two to three times a month. All the resorts had a deal where you could ski free the same day you flew in by presenting them your boarding pass. So despite living in Las Vegas, I was able to get 2-3 ski days in every month during the season. There are some ski resorts just a few hours drive from D.C. I do not know how great they are, but I might have to make some day trips to them to get my legas into shape before the family vacation. Do ya'll have any tips on a good spot to ski in southern PA on a day trip? 3

I have never skied east of the Rockies. Now that I am living on the east coast I need to find out more about the skiing out here. I would like to book a vacation for the family over Christmas break. I am looking at Tremblant, but I do not know anybody who has skied there that can give me any insight. Any advice or suggestions from the east coasters out there?

General Off-Topic Board / Re: One big difference between Pearl Harbor/WWII and 9/11« on: August 10, 2005, 04:29:24 PM »My point is that some people are so intellectually lazy that they dismiss an entire argument based solely on the perceived political leanings of the author. In reverse order... In order for the "difference" to which the article refers to be meaningful, one must assume that WWII and WoT must be largely similar in context. I didn't criticize the article becuae that would have been repetitive. The article's major flaws had already been pointed out. I didn't crticize Slate either. In fact I enjoy Slate. I simply pointed out that link beacause there were some questions as to the orginal source. I simply looked it up. Lastly, you got caught with your pants down by trying to pass off anti-Bush rhetoric as some sort of meaningful argument. You were bold enough to accuse others of intelectual laziness when in fact that was what you were practicing. 8

The argument in the article was dismissed because it was predicated on an inaccurate comparison of WWII and the current war on terror, not because of where it was posted on the internet. I read the article in its entirety and dismissed it without giving a second thought to who the author might be. BTW I find it ironic that you are so eager to accuse others of intellectual laziness when you turn to Slate for information to support your anti-Bush stance. 9
General Off-Topic Board / Re: One big difference between Pearl Harbor/WWII and 9/11« on: August 10, 2005, 03:16:39 PM »This is the link to the original article. Go figure an editorial from Slate slamming the war. So you're point was that a liberal news organization would post anti-war article? How astute! 10

Maybach with a driver so that I could sit in the back sip champagne and troll LSD instead of dealing with D.C. traffic.
I can't figure out how to insert pictures so here's the link. http://weaky.free.fr/galeries/de/Maybach.htm Now that is what I call a ride! |
