Well, I'm back from my trip up north. It went....erm. Well, I'll just tell you what went on. Our way up was fairly uneventful. We stopped by Autzen Stadium, so (Yeah!) I was able to look around the stadium. Its massive! I also saw Coach Belloti. I didn't say hi, as he was talking to someone. (Dang) One thing that was...somewhat eventful, was driving up to portland. Oy! Portland folk drive like maniacs! Course, it didn't help with a liquid (FLAMMABLE!) oxygen tank in the back of our...

Why is it that the immigration (or at least those shown on my local T.V. station) do not seem to realize…”COME INTO THE US LEGALLY!”. I mean, JFC, how hard is that to learn? Seriously. Do you think they realize that? Nope. They turn it around into another “poor me” whine. It is just like the black civil rights cause. For a long time, it was a great, decent, honest, respected movement….well, *coughs* not anymore. Most of it seems nothing more than a… ‘pan handlers union’. Why? *shrugs...

What would you do? If… 1. Iran successfully builds nukes, and uses one on Israel. Completely wiping it off the map. 2. The world is crippled by a mysterious disease; nearly 1/2 of the world’s population succumbs. 3. All middle eastern democracies tumble; leaving theocratic governments in their wake. 4. All European countries convert to a single currency. 5. Europe’s economy collapses; leaving the once prosperous nations in shambles. 6. Terrorists/Terrorist organizations...

We (Mum & I) leave tomarrow (Tuesday) at around noon-ish and are heading up to OHSU in Portland to go to follow up appointments with the various doc's we saw in October. So far, My CO2 levels are normal. My heart has decreased in size. (Not quite the normal size yet, but close.) My lung is still collapsed (I believe). My diaphragm is still not working. *thinks* My hypertension is kaput...I believe. (According to what my 'normal' doc said.) This time, we are going to discuss various p...

I would've posted a comment on your recent article if i could. Alas, I can't. So, here it is: Just thought I'd say, "Wwelcome back". Hope you get back into the swing of things, and that life is treating you great. I hope we can put our problems behind us...bygones be bygones. Talk to you later... (BTW...*if* anyone responds...It doesn't look like I'll be able to respond until Saturday.) ~Lucas (Oh, also, no flames...arguements, etc...please.)

United 93~ Are any of you going to see it? Apparently I am the only one in my family that is going to see it, period. I'm going, not for the "theatrical" stuff...I'm going, because i feel that i am honoring the victims lives...by remembering what happened...instead of trying to push it away, or such. (Now, don't get me wrong...I understand that those who directly lost someone are still hurt..) So...I am, are you? ~Lucas "Stand up, stand tall, stand brave- never forget those wh...

Dr. Guy, I am going to say this once. I like you...you are one of my favorite bloggers. HOWEVER, You need to just roll with it. Shrug off whatever problem(s) you have with Dick, John, or whomever.... Trust me. I've learned that. You know what happened to me....with staying focused on meaningless "avenging my honor" crusades. Nothing good. Take a break....relax...do something. Forget about LW. She's not worth it. IF she is back...leave it to the admins... Please...just listen. ...

Does anyone here live close to Roanoke? (I think it is part of NC now...used to be part of Virginia) I need someone, if they are willing to look up some info on the "lost colony". The majority of what i have found on the net is junk...pure CT. I can't pay, but i can offer deepest thanks.... ~Lucas

I've been asked the question, "Are you religious?" I look at them and tell them no. I am not religious; I have faith. I do not believe in the concept of an organized establishment of religion, i.e. church. A church, is ran by humans, and, as the catholic church has shown, it is carnal, and hardly infallible. (Not to say we all are) I personally, would rather decide what I think is right and wrong with out the influence of a church, so, I say that I have faith. Also, My dogma isn’t set in sto...

"Hello sir, have I got a deal for you!" No thank... How many get calls from telemarketers, sometimes at ungodly hours...? Well...I've handled them in the following manners: "No thank you." ~Followed by hanging up. "Ya know what, i am really interested, but could you give me a second. I have dinner on." ~Followed by leaving the phone and "forgetting" about it. "Me no speak english" ~ It works... "No-No. I have a great deal for you!" ~ I go on babbling about random "deals"...

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? ME: I would change my 'absent mindedness'. Its cause too many catastrophes. I would also, if given a chance, change my looks, my financial situation (i.e. so that my mum is well off), that i would use my brain more often ( ). Seriously though... ~Lucas

Help! I'm A Hollywood Republican! I am a Hollywood screenwriter. I have written feature films, episodic television, movies for network and cable. An Emmy Award for the screenplay for my film "The Devil's Arithmetic" sits over the fireplace in our living room. I have won numerous awards and I have, thank God, made a good living in Hollywood. For an Orthodox boy from Brooklyn raised during the 60's and 70's, when all my classmates were bred to be doctors, dentists and accountants, I was...
