How do you Win at Terror?

Um ok…something that still baffles me. How do you win at Terror? I can understand winning at Monopoly or Football but how do you really beat a fear or an action? That’s what terror is :

as defined it’s “an intense fear of physical injury or death [inflict terror by forced entry or unlawful assembly; also : the infliction of such fear an act of terror]

So when Bush Says first “Terror War Can Be Won” I still don’t get it… This coming a day after saying that the War on Terror can’t be won – hmmm so who really is a flip flopper now?

What really is his platform then. Didn’t the Prez charge out to the public that we needed to go to war to beat Terror and that Freedom will preval and we would Win! And now… Opps…my mistake… well maybe we can’t beat terror but maybe make it less palitable for the world – I think we already do that for the American public by denying public world coverage to the people of America about all the OTHER terroristic regimes, plots and organizations that go on in the world…

Many people still maintain that we’ll fight terror….if there’s some money in it….

George W. Bush,
President of the
United States:

“The conduct of the Iraqi regime is a threat to the authority of the United Nations and a threat to peace. Iraq has answered a decade of U.N. demands with a decade of defiance…. The United States has no quarrel with the Iraq people. They’ve suffered too long in silent captivity. Liberty for the Iraqi people is a great moral cause and a great strategic goal. People of Iraq deserve it.”

Naji Sabri,
Iraqi Foreign Minister:

“The ones who decide the war are the warmongers in Washington. The warmongers whose business is war, whose business is exporting killing and death to other parts of the world. These are the ones who decide the war agenda, not Iraq… Iraq is the victims of these threats. We have done nothing to provoke the United States; we have done… no harm whatsoever to American interests.”

The Olymipics – It’s all about the love…

So the Olympics have come and gone. The USofA took home the most medals with 103, Russia following this up with 92 and China in a long third with 63 however, half of those being Gold.

An average of 24.6 million people watched the games in each evening. That was a 14 percent increase over the 2000 Olympics in Sydney. Viewers showed a few signs of boredom last week, as the final five Olympic telecasts failed to beat that average. Sunday’s closing ceremony was seen by 19.6 million people. Unfortunately I was not one of those with out cable and only catching notes and highlights either in the gym or online. Next time ’round, I’ll see about attending in person.

Here’s some Olympic love:

Here are the top nine comments made by NBC sports commentators during the [2004] Summer Olympics that they would like to take back:

1. Weightlifting commentator: “This is Gregoriava from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing.”

2. Dressage commentator: “This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother.”

3. Paul Hamm, Gymnast: “I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father.”

4. Boxing Analyst: “Sure there have been injuries and even some deaths in boxing, but none of them really that serious.”

5. Softball announcer: “If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again.”

6. Basketball analyst: “He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn’t like it. In fact you can see it all over their faces.”

7. At the rowing medal ceremony: “Ah, isn’t that nice, the wife of the IOC president is hugging the cox of the British crew.”

8. Soccer commentator: “Julian Dicks is everywhere. It’s like they’ve got eleven Dicks on the field.”

9. Tennis commentator: “One of the reasons Andy is playing so well is that, before the final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them… Oh my God, what have I just said?”

My personality…

Highly doubtful… I was expecting, you’re a wierd internet freak that thinks he has skills in everything from sushi chefing to gold panning… well this is what it says about me:

ESFP – “Entertainer”. Radiates attractive warmth and optimism. Smooth, witty, charming, clever. Fun to be with. Very generous. 8.5% of the total population.
