It seems that they have cancelled another of my favorite threads, so I have started a new one.

A United States Marine was attending some college courses between
assignments. He had completed missions in Iraq and Afghanistan .
One of the courses had a professor who was an avowed atheist and a member
of the ACLU. One day the professor shocked the class when he came in. He
looked to the ceiling and flatly stated, 'God, if you are real, then I
want you to knock me off this platform. I'll give you exactly 15
minutes.' The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop. Ten
minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, 'Here I am God. I'm still
waiting.'
It got down to the last couple of minutes when the Marine got out of his
chair, went up to the professor, and cold-cocked him; knocking him off the
platform. The professor was out cold. The Marine went back to his seat and
sat there, silently. The other students were shock ed and stunned and sat
there looking on in silence. The professor eventually came to, noticeably
shaken, looked at the Marine and asked, 'What the heck is the matter with
you? Why did you do that?' The Marine calmly replied, 'God was too busy
today protecting America's soldiers who are protecting your right to say
stupid stuff and act like an idiot. So, He sent me.'

As they should. Also get rid of "A" and Word Association.

Brings nothing to this board. Granted..I've never went in to either of them over years.

thanks Limey, I hate when they delete threads with that much history

Mark my words. I will ensure that those words come back to haunt you.

"Brings nothing to this board."

I actually read the other messages in the other threads first and made it that much funnier.

Then what did you think this thread would be about? Please like you always bring something to the board. You will live to regret those words mark my words.
Shame someone your age is so bitter. OMG lets not have any fun on the Ranger board. If we want to have fun we should go to another teams board? You show me one team's board that doesn't have some nonsense threads.

It's just not my thing.

If it is what you're into then go for it, I'm not saying anyone who participates in this thread should be hung.

Worthless information just doesn't draw me in personally. Or playing with words or whatever goes on in "a". lol. I haven't gave them fair chances though so yeah..=/

Just because you are not hung is no reason to take it out on everyone else.

LOL..

You asked for that!

=(

And the best part of it, I will continue to bring back back these things when and as I feel like it. I appreciate your opinion but it doesn't affect me whatsoever.

It was just a place for us to share jokes or whatever. It was what it said it was, worthless information. I am not a football fan so during football season if I see a thread that is about football it is my choice if I want to enter or not. I live in America I have the freedom to choose. And so do you.

Why Conservatives Are Happier Than Liberals
Wednesday, May 07, 2008
By Jeanna Bryner

Individuals with conservative ideologies are happier than liberal-leaners, and new research pinpoints the reason: Conservatives rationalize social and economic inequalities.

Regardless of marital status, income or church attendance, right-wing individuals reported greater life satisfaction and well-being than left-wingers, the new study found.

Conservatives also scored highest on measures of rationalization, which gauge a person's tendency to justify, or explain away, inequalities.

The rationalization measure included statements such as: "It is not really that big a problem if some people have more of a chance in life than others," and "This country would be better off if we worried less about how equal people are."

To justify economic inequalities, a person could support the idea of meritocracy, in which people supposedly move up their economic status in society based on hard work and good performance.

In that way, one's social class attainment, whether upper, middle or lower, would be perceived as totally fair and justified.

If your beliefs don't justify gaps in status, you could be left frustrated and disheartened, according to the researchers, Jaime Napier and John Jost of New York University. They conducted both a U.S.-centric survey and a more internationally focused one to arrive at the findings.

"Our research suggests that inequality takes a greater psychological toll on liberals than on conservatives," the researchers write in the June issue of the journal Psychological Science, "apparently because liberals lack ideological rationalizations that would help them frame inequality in a positive (or at least neutral) light."

The results support and further explain a Pew Research Center survey from 2006, in which 47 percent of conservative Republicans in the U.S. described themselves as "very happy," while only 28 percent of liberal Democrats indicated such cheer.

The same rationalizing phenomena could apply to personal situations as well.

"There is no reason to think that the effects we have identified here are unique to economic forms of inequality," the researchers write. "Research suggests that highly egalitarian women are less happy in their marriages compared with their more traditional counterparts, apparently because they are more troubled by disparities in domestic labor."

The current study was funded by the National Science Foundation.

Besides we are older and wiser.

Go Cowboys

idc

It's a good thing you don't care now about those cowboys? Are you saying they are worthless that is why you added them to this thread? Cause if you are I am sure you can get Marhobo to agree.
