<trompe> someone here should make a Democrats v Republicans civil war 2006 scenario for CivIV
<Nemes> hehe
<Nemes> nah eng v america war
<Hangfire> so Nemes
<Hangfire> I'm heading over to saville row
<lucifer_> Nemes: that was Colonosation
<lucifer_> well, sort of
<Linus-> ok, what situation must present itself in order for a DA to call for a grand jury?
<Nemes> sup Hangfire
<trompe> I thought that England and America already had a war
<lucifer_> colonisation*
<Linus-> why can't the office just proceed w/o one w/ charges?
<Hangfire> I'm heading to Anderson & Shepherd for a fitting
<Lotec> trompe, counting 1812, we had 2
<Nemes> nice
<lucifer_> anyone who is anything has had a war with england
<Nemes> yeah
<Nemes> you're not with the in crowd if you havent had a war with us
<Nemes> hehe
<lucifer_> :)
<Lotec> We need one with the Frogs
<Nemes> been there done that
<Nemes> WON THAT
<Nemes> :)
<Nemes> what style of rts is civ iv though?
<Nemes> is it justresoruce mining and building?
<Lotec> Nemes, you guys got to bomb their navy in WW2
<Nemes> yeah for free
<Nemes> well more or less
<Nemes> even though the commander in charge atthe time hated doing it because he was friends with some of the french navy high cmd and had trained with them for years
<Lotec> Course we hadda fight the Frgs in places to free them from the krauts
<Lotec> Is "collaborate" a french word?
<Linus-> doubt it
<Lotec> Linus misses the sarcasm
<Linus-> well, mebbe, but most likely latin root
<Linus-> i wasn't following the thread
<Linus-> since civ v isn't on my radar screen
<Linus-> or whatever you're talking about
<Linus-> or is it cooking? frogs and kraut
<Lotec> Interesting article about the UN "demand" for control of the internet: www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1875184,00.asp
<Nemes> ya the states has basicaly said no
<Linus-> you are some paranoid ****s
<Nemes> they're retaining control of what its called
<Nemes> ?
<Nemes> that erm
<Nemes> **** i forget now
<Linus-> goregate?
<Nemes> i was talking about it the other day
<Nemes> iaa or something like that
<Linus-> dia riaa
<Nemes> bah bolox its gone i cant remember
<Nemes> its an organisation that runs the itnernet or something
<Linus-> botox on the brain
<Nemes> and the states has primary control voer it
<Lotec> icann
<Nemes> ya
<Nemes> thats the one
<Hangfire> ICANN
<Linus-> icann is a conspiracy of cnn and cia!
<Linus-> ITHINK ICANN
<rond> http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/051027/nyth030.html?.v=30 <---- Romania hits the main stream
<Lotec> Countries like Iran and China are behind the takeover attempt. They wanna censor
<Linus-> hey hey, ho ho, mr cheney has got to go
<Nemes> yeah there was some story on tv about it the other day - and they were saying that the States has decided retain overall control of that organisation or something
<Nemes> it was going to release it
<Nemes> but...
<Linus-> then it saw who was in line
<Nemes> heh
<Lotec> Linus, you really think Cheney will have any trouble?
<Linus-> :)
<Linus-> lotec, i think it might benefirt the republicans actually
<Linus-> if cheney faces serious heat, he'll resign due to health reasons
<Lotec> Linus, Libby would fall on his sword first. If he leaves, it ain't such a big deal
<Linus-> but it allows the gop to get a pre-ordained "incumbent" to run in 08
<Linus-> if bush can appt a new vp
<Lotec> IF?
<Linus-> yes, first cheney has to go
<Linus-> that's an if
<Lotec> There was talk he might do that anyway
<Linus-> change "can" to "is required to"
<Linus-> yeah, ive been saying it for a year almost
<Linus-> its a smart plan for the right
<Linus-> frankly, i hope cheney hangs on by the fingernails
<Linus-> just rubbing the american people the wrong way for 2+ years :)
<rond> Rubbing some american people is the proper way to say that
<Lotec> Linus, only the Dems care, and they are in the minority
<Linus-> putting condi in as vp would really undermine the state dept's quiet talks worldwise right now
<rond> Please don't include me in your views because we do not agree on much
<Linus-> oh come on, theres got to be some pot where even diehard right wingers begin to see cheney as an albatross
<Linus-> i didn't
<Linus-> point
<Lotec> Cheney's only problem is he's too likely to say what he really thinks
<Linus-> rubbing halliburtons magic piggy bank :)
<Linus-> you mean, blad-faced lies?
<Lotec> I <3 Haliburton
<Linus-> bald too
<Linus-> cheney's last throes comment puts him up there in the prognostication ballpark with the likes of Carnac ;)
<Lotec> Which was that?
<Linus-> "the insurgency is in its last throes"
<Linus-> months ago
<Lotec> Just after that we took out their #1 fundraiser
<Linus-> that's like saying the "49ers have no chance" when down by 2 with the ball, 2 mins, and montana under center :)
<Lotec> Everyone on the left wants to go on about haliburton, but they made a lot more money under the Dems
<Linus-> with govt contracts?
<Lotec> Yeah
<Linus-> war and disaster contracts?
<Linus-> no bid?
<Lotec> Clinton loved to send em business
<Linus-> i realize they thrived under clinton as well
<rond> Halliburton is just a hook for some to jump onto to complaign with
<Lotec> They get no-bid contracts on stuff no one else can even do
<Linus-> but werent those contracts limited to oil and gas?
<Linus-> now haliburton is jack of all trades
<rond> it doesn't matter how much you dispel any myths regarding that company the same people will wake up the next day and again...Hallinurton
<Katey> Well, they have various susidiaries
<Lotec> Anything really big, they are the only ones that have the resources to do
<Katey> like Kellogg, Brown and Root, they do construction
<Linus-> rond, not for me; govt contract process has been so corrupt for years, i consider it policy as usual
<rond> Linus especially for you
<Lotec> Brown and Root used to build the nuclear power plants
<Linus-> but it does kinda scream "blatant" considering cheney ties
<Linus-> rond, i see you're bent on baiting me this fine morning
<rond> Ohh that wasn't a bait
<Linus-> just your normal diarrhea of the mouth?
<Linus-> oops, did i say that
<Katey> I think one of their subsidiaries does security too
<Katey> I can't remember the name though
<rond> lol it would be so easy to do a log line item count per name and see who runs the mouth the most
<Lotec> Linus, they get more contract under Clinton but when Cheney gets in office it's suddenly "blatant?"
<Katey> rond, yes. and the winner would likely be Rustyford.
<Katey> :)
<Linus-> kat, don't they also get contracts and then turn around and hire subcontractors, basically getting a "fee" for being an intermediary?
<rond> and the a relavancy check to see who had the highest % of lines with something relevant to say
<Katey> or maybe Twobar. :)
<rond> Yeah Rusty would be the tops in the morning linus would be second
<rond> or close
<Lotec> Katey, KB&R does some security. It was some of their guys that got killed in Gaza a few years ago guarding a diplomat from the UN
<Linus-> begging your pardon, i thought this was a chat channel
<rond> It is but I am referering to your crap of the mouth comment
<Katey> rond, eh. I don't agree with that. And I don't really see why it's necessary to get personal over a disagreement regarding government contracts
<Linus-> he started it! ;)
<Linus-> bush: we will stay on the hunt
<Linus-> sigh
<Linus-> then lets have a plan, dumbya!
<Lotec> Linus, what would you prefer he said?
<rond> see there crap
<rond> nothing relevant
<Linus-> bush dismissing opponents saying we would have us tiptoe out of iraq is the real crap
