There needs to be a none of the above option, maybe even an all of the above option.
But somehow I am getting the sence this is from a joke in last night's chat. |

I voted for Cune, because with all his Babylonian connections, I suspect him from being Iraqi...
And, yes, the poll subject was suggested during the chat. By @tomic (which is no leading it) as a matter of fact. |
Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

Wait a minute! I wasn't at that chat and yet I somehow made very specific reference to chat.
Take that, skeptics!
...and stuff! |

Looks like both no chat and no waterboarding for me. Woo-hoo!

A couple of pilot friends of mine have gone through SERE.
One said, "I've been waterboarded. It's not that bad. Those guys are all pussies."
The other said, "man, I was able to endure it only because I knew in the back of my head that these guys were on my side and they wouldn't do anything to really harm me. If I didn't know that, I would have confessed to anything, whether I did it or not."
Take that for what it's worth. |

Wow; Ricky appears to be in trouble.
Let me take this opportunity to state that I always hated that guy! |

Well, Ricky has been run over by a truck, twice. I'd say, if anyone here is resilient enough to endure waterboarding, my bet is on him...  |
