Hmmm. makes you wonder about money.."full faith and credit" and all that. We have entered an era that is much like Russia was (and is), where the government is right, and it makes everything match what it says..

    Well, that would certainly seem appropriate, if you knew that that was the next shooting local for the next scene...

    we could make them all unisex, with some code
    indicating heritage -- formerly w or m -- and make
    them all coin-op to pay for the signs! -- j

    I heard a interview (that unfortunately I have tried to find again with no luck). So I am unable to verify
    The person was in charge of munitions in WWII at Okinawa. Just after the Japs surrendered 2 ships arrived from the US filled with weapons. He asked his CO if he should send them back to America. He was told to send 1 to Korea and 1 to Vietnam.

    Not surprising, and they would be cut off from information and sensational headlines...even when totally fabricated.

    Would not fly in the PC world, however, I lean towards Heinlein's philosophy that it is an individuals responsibility and self determined ethic as to the whole nudity thing. It also involves consideration of the impact on others, and their own needs as well. However, if a girl has something draped over her, it should be no ones concern whether she has a bra on or not, unless something is hanging out, then ask them to put it in. No biggie.

    Nope, you have described the life cycle of government as we know it, and the conspiracies behind them. The mere fact that no one can prove that some powerful creeps are pulling the strings of the inept morons we have been saddled with in the last 50 years, is not proof of their non existence. My point is, when enough "coincidences", and "events" happen that are just too crazy to ascribe to "just dumb ass politicians", SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE instigated it. Vietnam is a great example, we never really had a reason to be there, yet over 10 years a bunch of our citizens were forced to go there...yet nothing ever changed except the money.

    They would be cutting off a lot more such instances, articles and ongoing sales and views at websites..hence: money. Pure BS reason of course, but money trumps ethics 99.99999% of the time.

    It has been admitted by the editor of the NY times the intelligence agencies control the press andthat if they (the journalists) told the truth about political corruption they would be fired.

    Oh, you must have missed the great high school controversy where a girl (who was probably well endowed), went braless to school, supposedly appropriately covered up, and was asked by the principal to put on a bra. A bunch of male students (go figure) decided this was a cause celebrity, and came to school with bras on in protest, and thus another vicious cycle of complaints was initiated. Personally, bra or none, her boobs are her property, to be coddled or not, as long as they are under something that meets a basic standard of propriety (I.e. not topless in class) it is not their perview or under their control. The bathroom thing could be easily solved with a unisex,"take your own chances" one, in addition to the other two. The cost would be born by making it coin operated, so those that have imposed their needs on the rest can carry the burden of the implementation.

    The only time I like bras is when I am fortunate enough to take one off and not my own.

    "Several of these sayings were borrowed from an earlier writer, Lord Halifax, many of whose aphorisms sprang from, "... [a] basic skepticism directed against the motives of men, manners, and the age."" I am impressed that even back then, cynics and distrust of government was practiced by some of their own members. If only we had some more of that today...

    I have to admit that for each election that I have been old enough to vote in. I was always baffled by the choices. With more experience watching the primaries over the years , I became aware that the media seemed to pick the candidates.

    The next befuddlement was who ever was elected the same govt people were chosen to the cabinet or other power positions.
    These people (if you will ) All came from the same "think tanks" . These are also the same unelected,
    that send American soldier's to hell, I mean war. Everyone should ask who was it that wanted and funded the League of Nations then the UN , the CFR , the Carnegie Institute.
    There is a shadow govt and they don't just let things go by happenstance, no they plan , they connive they use pull for their continued power trip.
    Well For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge them and the secret societies the have devolved from.

    Now I'll wait for the thumbs downs.
