Go to Google, punch in "French military victories", hit Feeling Lucky and see what you get.

Aparently it's not actually Google doing it, they explain it here .

You can find more about it here as well.

Actually, neither had anything to do with Google. If you read closely, you'll see the parody disclaimers... I wonder how they get away with using the logo though...

Hmm, I thought about that. I didn't think it was actually Google. Still, I was wondering if it was some kind of deal where you pay Google to allow it or something.

Watch out fellas Phaedrus and Tilt usually get all worked up and irritable when these "french threads" show up.

You can the same thing when you look for search "for weapons of mass destruction"

Miles and miles of crap -- just because they wouldn't kiss George Bush's ass. Tsk tsk.

And at present it seems the Chirac gov't was the wiser to not go along with the Wolfowitz plan.

Is that what you meant, Birch?

You really should type in "Weapons of mass destruction" and hit the "I'm Feeling Lucky" option. Funny as all git-out.
Like I've said before, without France, we would all sound like Canadians.

Tilt, I wasnt referring to the french at all. I was offering a warning to others about your oh-so-predictable response. You are very reliable, like Mr Pavlov's dog.

I'm sure they miss not having You Guys there... LOLOL. We already have tons of crackers like you in Georgia, too. So, stay Home, okay? LOL


At the present time it appears that Those Stupid French had more sense than YOU ever did. Aren't YOU the one who said "OH, He be de President! I got's ta trust HIM!"

I think Bush let you down, Dewd. And he'll use you again if you let him.


I heard this morning -- They're still at it!! I heard a blurb that the Bush PR fools are STILL saying the "fissile material from Niger" forgeries MIGHT be true! They Don't Know When To Quit! I'll see if I can find a link for you... so you clowns can pretend to ignore it...


P.S. I just bought a new set of Michelins for the Exploder yesterday. They've got a $50 rebate per set of 4 this month.

I got over 55K out of the last set, and got another just like 'em (LTX A/T). You don't see as many of them on the road as the LTX M/S, but I like the all-terrain tread on those forest service roads -- especially in Winter.


If you like the layout of Washington, DC... thank our first President... and Pierre l'Enfant.

I didn't like the French before the war so my piss poor attitude has been grandfathered in and remains valid. I do however like hiking with Frogs...nothing keeps the mosquitoes away like a nice stench. The flys are whole other matter though. And they always lug in wine [coughBuddhabearcough].

Just an observation, LOL. I think bigots are scumbags. What do YOU think of bigots? I can only imagine, LOL

Do you make speeches in their honor? Put up statues? Name landmarks after them?

You'll need better bait than that!!!
Not at all Tilt,, I could care less because I feel we all have it in us in one form or another to varying degrees, and you would be lying to yourself if you thought differently. You're human, are you not? and prone to err as the next person. I bet you ride prudy high in the saddle like some of the others around here.

I was just wondering why you would care to jump into this, Briar. Considering your reply, I don't think it was an affront to your sense of logic. I guess if someone objects to bigotry, that's 'holier than thou' behavior as far as you're concerned.


I don't fish, Nigal. If you want to demean yourself by acting like trash, oh well... but I won't condone it with silence.
Tilt

Your hypocrisy is glaring tilt. Pardon me while I get my sunglasses on. I couldn't help to notice that just as you assert Briar is a racist because he called you out, that you took offence to my displeasure with people that refuse to bathe. Hitting a little close to home there Stinky?

Signed,

The only time I don't bathe is in preparation of nigal kissing my French ass.

It really is worth repeating...
Tilt, I wasnt referring to the french at all. I was offering a warning to others about your oh-so-predictable response. You are very reliable, like Mr Pavlov's dog.

For the record now. According to tilt you cannot tease the french but you can tease...

1) Fat woman (sorry didnt look for the two jokes)
2) rural southerners "We already have tons of crackers like you in Georgia, too"
3) people he disagrees with "
Hi scumbag, whassup"

Tilt, you are a piece of work.


I must be psychic...before anything negative was said about france tilt was here panties in a wad...

Oh and tilt, before you get all hitoric on us (your referrence to Pierre l'Enfant). Keep in mind some facts about Pierre...he was nuts for one. A very wealthy landowner in pre DC built a home and farm where Pierre wanted one of his roads to go. So he had the house torn down. It jsut turns out that the homeowner was a well connected fella who was friends with the committee in charge of Pierres employment, needless to say he was fired and took his prints and went home to his lover. A memeber of the Swedish(I believe) consulate who treated Pierre as a fool. He kept Pierre locked in two rooms of the estate sorta like cinderella. To top it off Pierres lover then used all Pierres money and Pierre was left alone and broke. If thats who you are using to support any of your claims then go ahead. Not very compelling though. You are'nt the only one who knows history ya windbag!

I didn't know what Briar's angle was, so I asked a question and he answered it. Draw whatever conclusions you want.


But because a person like you (based on your post of 12:32 CDT)calls me a hypocrite... I should really take it to heart, LOLOL

No... coming from a person who holds such opinions, it is truly a compliment. If that person doesn't want people to think he is trash, He Should Quit Acting Like It.

Here's a quick example. Nigal could be the stinken'est scuz the world has ever seen, but I'm not about to smear the rest of Ohio based on HIM. That would be unbelievably STUPID.

It's your "Riders vs. Backpackers" crap all over again.



Maybe he should buy a horse... ?

LOL

WELL, let's examine this 'hypocrisy' of mine. I repeated two of Rodney Dangerfield's 'fat jokes'. What was the gist of these jokes? In both cases a mythical person was So Large that things happened due to the laws of physics: high heels struck oil, ears popped.

If anyone was actually offended, I truly apologize.

You should also note that I never once said that all overweight people were arrogant, cowardly, or lacking in any warmongering skills. I did not question their character, their hygiene, or their ancestry.

Or is that too fine a point for you to differentiate?
Tilt

Don't tease bigots... LOLOL

Tilt, its heartwarming to see you come to terms with your hypocrisy. But I dont really think you are being sincere. I saw lots of reasons for why you said what you said but not a lot of responsiblity. You even tried to turn it around ...yes I made fun of fat woman and southerners and those I disagree with but I didnt make fun of all southerns or fat woman so Its not that bad plus I was quoting Rodney Dangerfield so really I am still better then you. Its okay that you lie to us Tilt, but lying to yourself causes the most damage. Keep trying though.
