You live in your own world don't you? Are you sure you don't take any hallucinogenic drugs? Perhaps you did some kind of army drug testing program?

OMG

[Danno 1,228]

Tangled mess? I think not, Danno has conclusively proved that blacks more stupid than anyone else, well, aside from gays, clearly gays are the most stupid and as for gay blacks? Well! It probably serves them all right anyway. Darwin up to his tricks - except does Danno believe in Darwinism? Conundrum.

Don't you know every racist believes in Dawinism?....Especially Darwin.

BUt that aside, I am suspect that "intelligenc" is not really the key as to who is getting Aids,

but perhaps impulsiveness might be.

i'd be up for that. you bring some sandwiches, and i'll bring the guns. we'll have PG county cleaned up before dinner time.

Dam straight. Give us some sort of presidential amnesty and we'll have PG county or any other gangrun shithole safer to be in than the Whitehouse.

Are all 'the poor' legitimate targets, or only those who are poor because they don't have a job or who have a job but just not quite enough money so they still need welfare or perhaps just those who use drugs or who are members of gangs or is this just people who are living in certain areas and 'don't look right'?

Are 'the poor' going to wear little targets so that the 'rich/middleclass' bullyboys know who to shoot at? Or, are they just going to shoot at anyone who's wearing their pants to low down on their ####### (not that I would mind, that's a fashion faux pas one to many ) or are the poor just easy to identify if you are 'rich/middleclass'? Inquiring minds would like to know.

It would be far, far easier if you guys, the ones who want to go around shooting people for being poor, or whatever it is you think people need to be shot for and dispensing rough justice, would simply move to say, well Afghanistan would be a good place. You'd love it there.

Here is how we will identify them. Quite easy actually

Bar Shootout Was Like 'Wild Wild West', Witness Says

[Heracles 417]

We need a cleanup America day.

The day when people of all backgrounds and ethnicities ( black/white/asisan/hispanic etc), who are normal, take back our neighborhoods and communities. And clean them up while we are at it since the current residents clearly don't know how to place trash in bins, maintain them or simply not vandalize them.

Well even pay for the renovation since people apparently cannot afford Behr One Coat, which goes for about $23 a gallon. Can afford to buy crack and expensive clothes but not a few gallons of paint.

You guys have been watching too many bad action movies.

Yeah, soon as you can tell me what normal is.

Indomethacin?

Perhaps you can slip Brother BY some PCP - might help even the odds.

it's an anti-inflamatory that is often prescribed for gout, buddy. i've had gout since i was 30, incidental to traumatic arthritis residual to broken bones in the feet from too many jumps with full load out at too low elevations. sometimes the shock and awe was on our side, too.

gout is caused by uric acid crystalisation in the soft tissues of the joints. too much red meat, too much alcohol, too much shellfish, too much red wine, too much sex. any of them will cause gout, especially if circulation in the joint is compromised by residuals to joint trauma, or prolonged exposure to extreme cold or dampness.

Ouch...broken bones in the feet! Is that typical? and which ones usually break? (sorry, O/T i know, but I find this stuff fascinating. Two of my husband's work buddies shattered their ankles during jumps (one was THIS close to completing ranger school...bummer, so I know that happens...broken feet bones makes sense, but I'd be interested to know how big a problem it is).

And on a similar note, the discussion earlier in the topic postings about the development of the HIV strains, and what makes one more prone (malaria...I didn't know that) was very interesting.

And PG County...a lot of military peeps around here would rather drive around in Iraq than drive into certain parts of the PGC. It's a whole different world. Crazy indeed.

The crazies have a point about PGC, though. I'm swarthy and if I end up there it's because I'm lost and working on getting out.

[HannahP 119]

But they think HIV probably developed from SIV, right? I wonder how many varieties of SIV there are? Interesting question; I don't know how many strains of HIV there are. :/

more likely, HIV is a mutation of BIV (bovine immunodeficiency), and the resultant BIDS. bovine tissue was use as a cultivation base for smallpox vaccine in the belgian congo during the 1950-1965 period, and multiple use of needles was the rule during the pox innoculation. there is also a chance that HIV was an isolated local disease that found it's way into the population during the innoculations by shared needle.

While your ability to Wikipedia anything is quite astonishing, you are wrong on this account -- the only people who believe this anymore are the hardcore conspiracy nuts. (Which you may belong to, I dunno...)

Anything that suppresses your immune system is more likely to make you susceptible to HIV. STDS, especially stuff like herpes, also create more "space" (ie. warts) via which HIV can enter the body. Also, the sicker you are, the more likely are you to come into contact with western medical practitioners who may or may not be using sterilized needles between patients. It's common sense, really.

Joisee will be next on the list. We'll need at least a month there. Probably have to change the name of the state after we are done with it. But we'll return it in a pre 50's condition.

SIV has a couple of strains itself, transmissible to humans with a very low degree of virulence. Meaning that you can get infected but it won't do much more than what a cold does.

I've been reading up on Ebola lately & find this fascinating, actually. Don't they think the outbreak in Reston (the only US outbreak?) piggybacked on SHFV? Which is why humans became infected but didn't show notable signs/death/etc.

I'm certainly not a biologist but I do enjoy reading about these sorts of things, however perverse that may sound.
