LOL... for the record, I believe zero of what I actually predicted.

Belated thank you for the reps. Genius is a word that is thrown around too lightly nowadays, but il Poeta deserves that accolade as much as anyone. I have no doubt in my mind that I would not now be Catholic without Dante. I'll leave you some of his beautiful work as a testament to his honor.

As the geometer who sets himself
To square the circle and who cannot find,
For all his thought, the principle he needs,

Just so was I on seeing this new vision
I wanted to see how our image fuses
Into the circle and finds its place in it,

Yet my wings were not meant for such a flight —
Except that then my mind was struck by lightning
Through which my longing was at last fulfilled.

Here powers failed my high imagination:
But by now my desire and will were turned,
Like a balanced wheel rotated evenly,

By the Love that moves the sun and the other

no no that's not it at all. I just get excited. Thanks for the unnecessary reps

Thank you! I see he quick kicked on the topic.

Thanks for the reps. Conquest of Cool is pretty interesting. Frank is a great writer too so it moves along quickly.

Thanks for the reps Whiskey!

Thanks for the reps and the thoughtful message. Back at you. Love the articles you've been posting and I'm allways interested in reading what you have to say.

I appreciate the rep! The joke was set on a tee, though. Have a good one!

Agreed. I may not be as "mad" at the Boomers as you. They did what they were raised to do. That's why I kept n the point about their parents. Otherwise I think we agree on everything it seems.

Have to spread the love a little before I can rep you, but enjoyed reading your take on the Boomers. These wide angle discussions on social history are fascinating to me and always good to get perspectives from all. And, as always, I have great respect for your offerings. Thanks.

Thanks for the REPS!

Thank you! When I saw your "Man of The Left" post that quote leaped out of a brain cell that's been dormant for 51 years.

Got to spread it around first but thanks for the reps. As always I appreciate your logical arguments. I hope the passion I have on this topic is not colliding with yours. You always make me think and that is valued. Complex topic and we are just coming at it from different perspectives. Thanks for the discussion. Always enjoyable no matter if we are in agreement.

I can't rep you again right now, but wanted to tell you how much I enjoy and appreciate your writing. I don't agree with you on all points about every issue, but you have my UTMOST respect for how well thought out and reasoned you are in every discussion. I'm 100% in agreement with virtually all you've said in the recent Politics discussion. Every time I read one of your posts there, I think, "Yeah! THAT'S what I was trying to say... just not as eloquently!"

Thanks for the reps, Whiskey.

Hey Whiskey, can you remove the pic here? http://www.irishenvy.com/forums/leprechaun-lounge/252084-what-color-dress.html#post1499789 You an leave the rest, I kind of want to see what the votes show without any other visuals. Thanks!

Thanks for the reps, Bubba Hotep is awesome.

I am gonna give it the old college try and keep my brain stimulated. I can only process so many calculations about bending moment, elastic stress analysis, diaphragm shear analysis and seismic code design. Some philosophy will be good for me.

Hey Bud : Irish diplomacy it is, but all bets are off when you don't get a polite "thank you" for your clever intercession!

Thank you, sir. I'm looking forward to this and learning more about both sides.

Thank you for the reps!

Awesome win by your Irish. Now, close out NSD and get busy working for next year.

Don't think the Jones OV to Bama will amount to much.

sorry I got off topic in the "Torture" thread Whiskey.

Can't rep you but wanted you to know I laughed at your LOTR reference in the Ranger thread... Well played sir.

They just blowing off some steam from a difficult season. I can understand their frustration. But better days are ahead for the Irish.

You improperly deleted my post in the "Ferguson Grand Jury No Bill Documents." I linked straight to an autopsy for my facts.

Let's hope so. I think the Irish get it done with a good, solid win. This board will go from bad to worse if they have another bad game. So far, they have fired Kelly three times, somehow talked the best coaches in America to come to ND, and discarded the last three top ten recruiting classes. Maybe a little overreaction. LOL

Thanks guy.

haha, nah man... it's just been a really slow week at work and I'm super bored.
