They actually DO make pumpable penii for those who've had their dongs

The subject of intestinal putrification is an interesting one. It is thought
by some nutritionists that certain foods, particularly those high in fat,
destroy the naturally occurring bacteria in the large intestine. These
bacteria play an important role in the digestive process. Long courses of
antibiotics most certainly destroy these bacteria, causing prolonged
digestive ills. Yogurt or live acidophilus culture are ideal for
replacement or augmentation.

That's silly. How do you think Joe Kennedy got rich? Moreover, it takes
more than cash to win an election -- it takes political connections. Do
some reading on John Kennedy, and you'll see that he's no better (and
possibly worse) than all the rest. As for Ted Kennedy, he's just a
cardboard cutout for his advisors.
For instance, check out who wrote the books JFK put his name on (not to
mention term papers in college).

I would find Bush's promise of not raising taxes more meaningful if he
would also promise not to raise the federal deficit, too. After all, I
could boast about how well I was doing on my income, while at the same time
was running my credit cards to the limit. That's basicly what Reagan has
been doing for the last eight years.
It was rather clever of him, actualy. He could keep spending high, while
not raising taxes. Sure, sooner or later that debt will have to be paid
off, but it will be long after he's out, so why should he care? Whatever
administration that is in power when that comes will get blamed for any
hardship.

I have done extensive reading on the Kennedy's and your right about 'how

JFK and RFK - they really cared for the people and this country! Either that
or they put on the best damn act's this side of the Oscar awards! Oswald and
Sirhan wern't the only ones that wanted to kill the Kennedy's because of
their policies. They had the power to step on too many feet! =*--ANN--*=

Date: 08/15/88 Time: 12:00:53
Observations on "THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST."
The outcry from the fundamental religious community continues to amaze
(but not surprise) me. I haven't seen the movie, and probably won't
until it's available in video cassette form.
However, the basic premise of the movie as I read it, is that Christ
was God, in the form of a man. What people seem to be frightened of
is the depiction of Jesus as a real flesh and blood man, heir to all
the weaknesses and frailties that mortal men seem to fall heir to.
The movie maker admits that the screen play is a work of fiction, and
that these are only incidents that he has interpreted from the life of
the Carpenter.
Reading the KJV and other versions of the Bible, I see a certain
inconsistancy in the way that the "Word was made Flesh." Some
organized religions would have us believe that altho He was on earth
in Mortal Flesh, he was still God Almighty. (And above temptation.)
Others admit that he might (just might) have been subject to some (and
only some) of the same temptations that tease the rest of us, but
being God Himself in the Flesh, he would never succumb to those temp
tations.
Research into the origin of Holy Scripture, variously interpreted as
the King James version, the Douay version, the Jerusalem, Phillips,
and Oxford translations, and the so called "Inspired Version" of a
major southwestern group, shows that a lot has been dropped or glossed
over in the centuries since the Roman Bishop and his bretheren
compiled the "accepted" list of 66 books in the 3rd century.
The Roman Church, for example, has emphasized the eternal virginity of
Jesus' mother, at the expense of erasing those passages referring to
His (blood) brothers. Historical research reveals that ao man could
never become accepted as a rabbi during the Roman/Judean era, unless
he was suitably married, and could demonstrate fiscal and community
responsibility.
I have a hard time understanding how the Almighty could make Himself
into a temporary man without experiencing all the possibilities and
temptations that humanity is prey to. But then, if I take that
stance, don't I become a blasphemer in the eyes of all that is Holy,
Roman, and/or fundamental in organized religion?
Somehow their cries of "foul" do not compute. What is it that they're
afraid of?

In a recent Arizona Daily Star article about the U of A, I was spotlighted.
I thought I'd share it with y'all. However, space and time limitations
force me to edit the article. So here is the new, improved version. Enjoy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
By Arizeder Urreiztieta
The Arizona Daily Star
This is about Zak. Zak is at the University of Arizona. Competitions
are nothing new to Zak. Nor is winning them. Just as it is clear to Zak
that competitions pave the way for a career, the rationale for winning them
is equally obvious. "When I first looked at it, I thought it was impossible
to learn, but it's definitely possible," Zak says. Zak is a favorite
because he "acknowledges a pluralist and mobile working class" and "rejects
the oppressiveness of class stratification." Perhaps the most-watched man
in history, Zak is especially popular among middle-class women. "I've done
a lot of them. It's a great deal." The comment drew some nervous
laughter. It's "good fingers," Zak replies almost instantly. "Ones that
can do what you want them to at an appropriate speed." Finesse and the
willingness to eliminate extraneous noise from the fingers are two other
desirable qualities. There are no other secrets, says Zak, unless practice
itself is a secret. "It's how prepared you are, how convincing," he
stresses. Says Zak, "Facility is different than technique. Technique is
learned. Facility is not."
Zak does not brag, but neither does he lack the presence to say that half of
his peers play without guts. Analyzing Zak with the same fervor that other
scholars might examine the text of Joyce's "Ulysses," Charlotte Brunsdon, a
lecturer at the University of Warwich, England, said, "I'm not a fan but I
always seem to be getting papers on Zak. I wonder why?" Haralovich, an
expert on Zak, said "He's a fantasy of the working class." She pauses,
hardly able to contain her excitement. I love Zak. He is a veritable
cornucopia of wonderful ideas. Zak agress. "It's an incredible amount of
pressure," he says, "It drives me crazy." But all of these matters pale
when compared to one question -- to which Zak already has the answer. "Oh
sure, I'm good enough," he says, when asked wheter he can have a fulfilling
career as a diversion that simply delights millions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This is from an actual article. The lines were cut out and rearranged to
make it more "truthful". What can I say?

Don't get excited, it's only a theory. By the way, the 'K' in RKO
Corporation stands for Kennedy, I think. In any case he made zillions in
motion pictures, especially when talkies appeared.
I think Mecham was doing the same thing, that is, if the hidden loan
had not been discovered, we most probably would have seen a lot of
