The Town of Odyssey

Sherlock Holmes, I don't believe a word you said about only mimiking intelligence. You cannot have a pig mimic a computer with any level of success, only a computer can appear to be a computer. :D Actual terminology aside, Sherlock Holmes, Lord_Kappa makes a most excellent suggestion. :) Hmm. I was...

Edit: I just learned of this undercover forum known as the "Campbell College Debate Society". This is a pleasant suprise. :badgrin: His name is usually Doctor Watson... and he's your partner in all of your mysteries... but he's giving you a "bad grin"... be afraid... be very afr...

I think this topic should be restarted with a fresh slate in CCDS if someone feels that we should debate over it. :-k Right now it just looks like an extremely off topic... topic, with a lot of usually serious people having a bit of fun. :D Fun ? Surely you must be mistaken. I refuse to engage in s...

How's that not make sense? Do you know what a Hoosier is? I don't know if there is an actual meaning, is there? I've heard that there's a few various definitions - though most now-a-days just take it mean "I live in Indiana" or something of that sort. Not to drag this WAY offtopic, but if...

Thomas is the real natural law defender on the Court -- and its most consistent originalist as well. Agreed. Unfortunately, Justice Thomas's opinions generally don't garner the same sort of frustrated emotional response from the opposition that Scalia's do. As a fan of emotional opposition, I firml...

As a brief follow-up on the Scalia comments, I was actually quite surprised upon reading one of his interviews how strict of a democratist he is when it comes to some of the conventionally conservative issues. When asked whether he believed that Natural Law theory had a place in the American legal s...

:mecry: I homeschooled. I can't do it! It depends upon whether or not you homeschool with other people, I would suppose... As for the list, for those that assert the unlikelines of anyone ever attempting these (or, conversely, questioning the maturity of anyone that would ) let me offer one or two ...

Not to be Clintonian about this, but it depends on what your defininition of "all nighter" is. If you're referring to staying up until the sun rises, only to fall alseep later in the morning I'll imagine a number of us have done that for one reason or another. However, if we're referring t...

What worries me is that the Shadowpaw Fan Club proudly boasts a fleur de lee on it's logo.

Could there be a possible French connection (pun intended)?

I woke up this morning to be greeted by a gust of mind-numbingly cold wind and a flurry of dry snowflakes. As if to taunt me, the weather was precisely 1 degree fahrenheit. I reasoned that things could be worse - quite possibly there are eskimos somewhere who are entirely envious of the tropical con...

Zedekiah struck me as a liberal when I first encountered his opinions on this site. Indeed I still consider him a moderate conservative since he so seldom posts his opinions rather than pokes holes in others. :D Your comments remind me of a time when Justice Scalia came to visit our school. A few b...

Surely someone who goes by the moniker of Sherlock Holmes could do a little sleuthing and come up with Ron Brown's name as well. The good folks at NewsMax, WorldNetDaily and The American Spectator would be disappointed if you neglected him. Well, since you asked for it, I did a little sleuthing and...

Of course. What would you do without a Watson?

Irony always seems to appear in the most ordinary forms.

As they say, beware strangers bearing gifts [of the sucralose-infused variety].

Hillary Clinton sparks an especially visceral response, and it's never been altogether clear to me why that is. I thought I might quickly offer one possible response for the visceral responses you mention. One one hand, while I've heard a number of heated debates over Hillary's polical qualificatio...

(As long as I'd get to keep my Macbook).

Then your days of doorstops and fishtanks are over?

But of course. I saw the light.

Quality, not quantity, my good Admiral.

Oh, I rather doubt that the good Admiral will have many serious complaints about my drawing the occasional reference. I cringe whenever I hear the phrase "Adventures in Odyssey." Eeee. And I cringe when I hear the phrase "Surelock Lookin' for a trouble", so I suppose you could s...
