Hey everyone out there....caling the blogging masses. Does anyone know of any followups to the pc game Maelstrom??? This was a game that I loved to play back in the day.

Info, I think that you pose a couple of good questions here that deserve to at least be talked about. 1) I think that initially the reason that we were created with freewill is becasue God does not wish to have an army of slaves. I truly beleive that He allows us to make our own decisions for the simple reason that He did not want an arny of slaves. If He wanted that he could have just created that. I am also a beleiver that God

I was just reading a little of the Detroit News Link today when I came across an interesting article. It seems that the Gov. here in Michigan, Jennifer Granholm, has come up with a pretty good idea when it comes to taxes. For a little background, let me tel you about Michigans Single Business Tax. This is basically a flat fee tax

To all of you, I first want to thank you for responding to the post. I do think that some of you took my initial argument too far, which is of course my fault for the way and the tone in which I posted it. I am not sayign that it is impossible to pull yourself out of the cycle. It is very possible and good people do it all the time. With enough hard work and a little luck, there definitely is still an American Dream out there, I beleive that

The other day I was at work, having a good political debate with one of my coworkers that shall remain nameless, when the topic of poverty came up. The guy that I was talking with told me that there are lots of jobs out there and that people, especially those in the inner city (Detroit), should just go get jobs. He backed up his argument by saying that he is confident

Thanks for your responses and welcomes. I hope to be posting on all kinds of subjects. Ranging from what is on TV to the current state of affairs in professional tennis. So I hope that this will become a place where all things are discussed. Thanks to dynamaso for realizing that there are people who can see things from both sides of the aisle.

You know, although i agree with the original post in the sense that I also think that WoW is a better waste of time then sitting in front of the TV, I would like to make a random point. Although WoW is a better waste of time to both me and Draginol as compared to TV, it is defintely not a better waste of time for his wife. All I am saying that the use of time (especially in the waste of time sense) is a purely subjective activity. So of course to the o

I was just thinking that it was a good idea for me to write a little about me. One of my history professors once told me that everyone should know who the source of their information is so that they can accertain with what bias it comes from. So here is a little history about me. I was born in 1980, on July 4th, which some say is the reason that I have made pol

Here is what happened to fiscal conservatives: They are no longer allowed to exsist becasue of the function that conservatives try to to fulfill. We can and will have fiscally conservative liberals. you have to look at what each advocates. The liberals advocate programs that take care of needy people and are generally more for social programs. Conservatives advocate agaist most of these programs, but are for things like a strong national defense and sp
