Well at the end of the day she got back on her private jet, which we all seam to have, poured a nice champagne, stretched out, and blew this pop stand.
Doesn't matter what she does, how many of us can do that.

What a waste of time. I'm no Paris fan, but this is BS. This is a nobody at immigration trying to be a somebody. Did they scramble the riot police?. She came in on a private jet, its parked outside. Check her belongings, and let her go do her thing. Its not like she can blend in like waldo if she decides to run.
This reminds me of the time one of those immigration twerps let Arnold in with out a passport, he said he forgot it,WTF you dont jet around the world with out one.

We have all seen what happens to the local talento when they are caught with minuscule amounts. A Brit was arrested and served 6 months for a poppy seed off a dinner roll in Dubai.

In Japan that would have got her maybe 3 years. Malaysia she could have been hanged. Las vegas she gets a slap on the wrist.
But why?, she has a record, just recently got a staff member to accept her crime in SA, and she is still out getting loaded. This just proves there are two sets of rules. One for them, and one for the rest of us.

Do you think any of them opened it up, and read it before they sent it.
Food for thought.

I went to a funeral in nasushiobara once. I have to say i wanted to punch the guy at the crematory, had no respect for anyone. The guy was pointing out the different bones to the family as if he was selling fried chicken. On top of that as the ashes were being placed in the box he was scooping them up like he was making okonomiyaki (sp). Theres a few places there, 3 that I can think of but, sounds like the same place.

That works for you??. How about the rest of the equation. What was the air speed of each jet?, what floor did each jet hit?, what sides did the jets hit on?, Angles of impact. Sorry but nothing was Identical. Also notice how the jets never penetrated the towers but one miraculously made it threw how many fortified rings in the pentagon.

Um remember oil is traded in petrodollars/ usd, there was talk of petro euros IIRC. Iraq as well as Iran were trying to build support for it just before the attacks. I know you all want me to dig up sources and proof.
Also IIRC that questioning your government was part of being a patriot. The day we as people stop we no longer have government.

Do any of you think its beyond our government to kill a few for its agenda. If not ask the American Indians, Iraqis, Afghanis, and a few others how well the government cherishes life.

This absolutely has nothing to do with terror, it has to do with hearsay and privacy. When some sheik does something stupid it hits the BB and instantly 200 or so people have an anonymous BB message. Some say its to curb that, others say its because they want the power to hear and see all calls, and messages to screen them for porn, gambling, and anything else haram.
Just and example, if you send a text to say your lover, wish is illegal ( adultery) and in that text is some racy conversation, the authorities will actually come knocking. I know it sounds like BS but look it up. I have seen this 2 or 3 times.

I never took a class, never been to higher education, however he and I fell off the boat about the same time. I was able to pick up Japanese on the street enough to answer a phone and have a simple conversation in Japanese in just over a year. I understand their desire to go global, but I think upper management might be enough. I remember when my Japanese was crap and how pain full it must have been to listen to me, but now I prefer to interact in Japanese because some of the English I hear is pretty painful.
Side note, we had a salesman that couldn't speak English, but his penmanship was beautiful, and he could actually write a complete sentence.

Sony and Nissan are headed by English speakers so it obvious they would. I worked in a large chem co in Tokyo. The weasel at the helm refused to learn simple Japanese. His excuse was he had to learn French. To this day we still mock him all over the world for his incompetence and arrogance.

Ah but if they were Muslims suspected of terror plots this behavior would be perfectly fine. If Bin Laden said he was deplored by the raids we would tell him to piss off.
I really dont see the difference, in fact I would rather be blown up then the victim of these priests.

I have to talk myself out of buying one every week. I can think of a hundred reasons why to buy one, and another hundred why I dont need it. I have a net book, 2 laptops, and two Iphones. I guess Im going to give in shortly because Schorche has a car kit to mount in in place of your radio. With the nav, and the 3g connection I think this would be the best media center in a car for the price.
Just a heads up, you dont have to spend extra for a 3g if you have a Iphone. Just jailbreak it with spirit, get myfi from the cydia repo, and use your Iphone for a wifi hotspot. This way you use just the one data pakage from you Iphone, and you can connect with any other wifi enabled device.
