  1. US history is made...

    What happened was that a lot of people woke up. Keep in mind that even during the Clinton years, wages never caught up to inflation. Even though, as far as real wages are concerned, Clinton was far better than Reagan, Pappy Bush, and Junior. Also, during that time frame, H1-Bs and illegal immigration were used to keep wages down. Service jobs were also moved overseas from the United States. Manufacturing jobs have been dwindling for decades. Years and years ago, only a householder had to go to work in order to keep a household running. Then again, other ethnic groups had been abused so that someone somewhere can have their cake and eat it. The situation NOW is where both adults out of a household have to work and it may be that one or both have to have two jobs, JUST TO GET BY...that is IF a job is available.

    It doesn't mean that they are "out of power" just because a new "front man" is rotated in.
  3. Celibate or not

    For some people, like myself, it seems like a half-way decent measure of keeping the "voices" down in volume.
  4. Celibate or not

    make it a mochaccino, need to throw chocolate in there too
  5. Ping SheepishLord

    I'm wondering if you stopped or relocated your nyctaoist.com blog.
  6. How long have you been doing it?

    a truck driver is an 88M, MPs and Infantry break into homes trying to confiscate weapons and other stuff. Those career fields in the Army end up getting the most casualties.

    Yeah, about him being a Navy corpsman in the early 80's. Keep in mind that if there is a recession going on like in the early 80's then a person is going to have to do something to support themselves.

    English, Spanish, some indigenous language...we aren't going to be here forever. The border is pretty much porous anyway since having the military do rotations at the border is a new thing. Even with that it is still porous. As far as shitting on anybody. I'm not shitting on anybody. They are getting the truth, it is up to them on whether they are going to take it or leave it. Iraq had absolutely no connection to 9/11, even the corporate media has stated this. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/10164478/

    used to be 15J OH-58D Armament/Electrical/Avionics Systems Repairer am now 25B Information Technology Specialist Not that it would matter If I get deployed, it is better than having to drive a truck or break into somebody's home. Even if I was, my outlook would still be the same.

    LMFAO I can't believe people actually believe that SHIT. I used to be Active Duty Army and I am still in the National Guard. I don't ever remember protecting somebody else's freedom. The only thing that I do is provide a service so that Wall Street can make more $$$ and/or further it's interests. I'm well, well past that deception. Govt can take property thru imminent domain or whatever excuse they make up. Hell. they fucking spy on their own citizens without cause...and I'm protecting freedom, give me a fucking break.

    Keep in mind that it was the early 80's were recessions and it was extremely hard to come by a job. What exactly does he have to be grateful for? What is it that he is "ungrateful" about?

  14. Demons

    I see where the "Shit Demon" in the movie "Dogma" came from. http://www.vincentguastiniproductions.com/dogma.html
  15. That kind of advice goes way, way beyond extremely irresponsible and careless. If somebody is trying to get help because of spirit possession then that means it happened without consent. It also means that the spirit's intent is not wholesome.
  16. He attained Arhatship while he was doing a walking meditation. This is interesting due to Bill Bodri's stance of "sitting". He also says this: "The four postures for meditation that are mentioned in traditional Buddhist practice are those of sitting, walking, standing and reclining." http://web.mac.com/danielmingram/iWeb/Dani...B637600C2C.html
  17. I still don't get how Taoism made it into India and Nepal. I still would like to know how it was incorporated into Hinduism, and later into Buddhism.
  18. The Middle Way was discovered by Guatama Buddha because he considered the extreme practices of ascetics detrimental to overall development. He wanted to keep the body healthy so that the spirit could advance. It isn't exactly a "Middle Way" since he probably was able to bring more practitioners to arhat status than anyone else in human history. "Maha" means Great and "yana" means Vehicle.
  19. The Tao Bum-Shakers

    In the pdf, "Secrets the Gurus will Never Show You", that Santiago Dobles and Tao Semko wrote, they had a lady with osteoporosis recover all of her bone mass due to the shaking. Shaking was also part of Robert Peng's CD set.
  20. So, who's "Psychic", ...and how?

    Let me take a stab at it. You are saying to yourself "I am SEXY!"

    Talk to Plato Rosinke. He goes by the name of "Sheepish Lord" I think
