Was John Pemberton a seer?
Really, could you possibly imagine a better name for a drink than Coca-Cola in regard to marketing potential of China? They say Jules Verne nailed all those means of transport we use today several decades in advance but Pemberton is the real deal here. Coca-Cola. Brilliant.

Id like to question the random country chooser on the site.
I have got austria and italy more than average recently. Makes me wonder if the mods are rigging it so id leave... :P But really, for those of you familiar with the phenomenon, is the generator truly random like sites like random.org or is it pseudorandom? Does anyone know?

NFL Pick 'Em: Week 8
Inside the updated totals after Week 7 will be posted...as soon as I add them (or someone who already has it added up wants to post if, if they're faster.)

As we're at the half-way point of the season, lots of teams on bye and another week for blow-outs it seems. With the Packers on bye, who will dominate the weak...so--who'll win? PICK 'EM!

How did people fair in the snow storm? We lost power for about 24 hours. Roads are still pretty cluttered with trees and most of the surrounding towns (that don't get power from the University) are still out of power.

Jesus=Socialist?
Someone I happen to see nearly everyday insists that Jesus was a socialist and/or advocated the philosophical and moral grounds/justifications for instituting socialism. I oppose socialism, but am not particularly religious, and thus not really angered by this statement; nevertheless, many Christians I know have been angered by this claim. Discussion/debate?

and if you don't think you were attacked because you are German, where exactly did the "Racist against Germans" line come in.
I also mentioned, racist to all non-Jews, did I not?
why specify Germans Herr? Sure seems like you were implying that they attacked you because you were German then completely forgot about that part of your fabricated story.
No, I mentioned Germans as I am a German. If they attacked you, I am sure you would mention Americans, or maybe you are so out of touch with reality that you think that people don't take offense when they are in a frightening situation.
no, If someone attacks me I do not think they are racist against Americans, especially if I think the attack has nothing to do with me being an american.
Well then I am sorry to make it seem as if they attacked me for being German, but that was not my point. My point was to attack someone for the sole purpose of being different or asking questions is wrong.
No, your point was that you supposedly got attacked on the street so a country of millions is to blame for the act of a small minority and that they are all racist, bigotted. That Jews in general are bigoted because of their religion and that all israelis should be displaced or killed.
You still haven't even addressed how you could have been in Israel for any amount of time and think that hardline ultra orthodox are representative, or why you were in an ultra orthodox neighborhood, or why, as a supposed ultra zionist, you would ask "Where will you put the palestinians" not a question any ultra zionist would care about in the least. Your story stinks.
I took a plane. How is that not easy to understand? I mentioned why I was in the Orthodox Ghetto, though I didn't realize that it was segregated into Orthodox and Non-Orthodox, as I was just looking for the, lack of a better word, most extreme looking Jew. I said they should not be given free land just because their religion proclaimed it, and never said they should be killed, but instead should never have been given the land (and because I am not an extremist, I am willing to listen to the man who was IDF about his points). Sorry, I am not understanding what you are confused about, your sentences are confusing me. I still have difficulties with English sometimes.
How is this. You are a liar. That didn't happen. The story is ridiculous..
How about this. Go fuck yourself, and don't speak such rot until you actually know me. Honour to me is above civility. I do not lie, and go fuck yourself for even bothering to call me a liar. We are done here. *Muted*
Actually, I will just ignore you as I would like to hear from other people on this post, such as Taos and the IDF member as both of them seem fairly educated, even though Taos can let sins of our fathers redden his eyes.

Hey HerrBayersischKaiser....er....I mean DUMBASS....I have a suggestion for your next trip. Come to Detroit, Michigan and wander your Naziu ass down someghetto street in Detroit and ask all the niggers dealing crack there why they hate all the Whities north of 8 Mile Road....then ask em, with your girlfriend in tow....why they like white bitches more than their own kind. You think you got your Nazi ass kicked in Isreal? Try Detroit...
I didn't get my ass kicked in Israel, the police were quite civil and seemed like they just wanted the event to end as much as I did, and maybe next time I will pay more attention to someone who can spell and use proper grammar and slurs. I am not, nor have ever been a National Socialist.

HerrBiatchaLot -- you got your ass kicked in Isreal....either that or you are a fucking coward ass pussy, because you said they beat on your girlfriend....you what? You didn't protect her, bitch? Anyway, you stupid Nazi, anti-semetic bitch....let me buy you a plane ticket to Detroit for you and your bitch. I'll make it One-Way, because if you pulled the same offensive shit in Detroit that you pulled in Israel, you would be just another fucking murder statistic, asshole.
By the way according to Herr's rubric All germans are anti semetic, anti-immigrant neo nazis

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8qLpVxn6S8

There are alot more than 25+ here.

So therefore all germans including herr are racist fucks that still follow hitler. Fuck that country and i think its about time for another invasion...
You, sir, are an idiot seeing as to how you seem to: 1) Not have read any prior posts. 2) Can't understand the difference between National Socialist and Average German, and Anti-Semite and Anti-Zionist. 3) Can't use proper capitalization or punctuation. 4) Dramatically overuse racial slurs. 5) Cannot talk civilly.
@Santa: This is illegal in our country (Not the NPD, but being pro-National Socialist). And I hope eventually our Polizei track all these members down and arrest them.
"2) Can't understand the difference between National Socialist and Average German, and Anti-Semite and Anti-Zionist."

HA are you serious? Do you understand that is exactly what you just did? You are attacked by 1 man with 25 more standing around and all of Israel is now racist. You scold krellin for not understanding the difference between "Average Germans" and national socialists.

You are an idiot for not understanding the difference between Ultra Orthodox Jews and "Average Israelis"
@Santa: Also, most of these are in the Eastern Germany, not in Southern where I live. There is a separation. An East German is not a Bavarian, and a Bavarian is a Bavarian before he is a German.
@Santa, did you hear me open myself to the IDF member to explain the different denominations in Israel? Because you obviously didn't and are just as bad as a radical.
You are all the same, like you say all Israelis are the same. How about that?

Herr -- man up, bitch. Take on my offer for a free vacation to Detroit, Michigan, where I will offer you the opportuntiy to walk into a ghetto in Detroit and ask the same sort of offensive questions that your elitest, pro-Nazi/Anti-Semetic self asked while visiting Israel.

Yes...my grammar and punctuation is not perfect...and I have called you for what you have demonstrated yourself to be: a racist asshole, who thinks he can freely walk into an Israeli ghetto and insult people in the most personal way and thinks he should get a pat on the back. So....come on, bitch. If you are right and I am wrong, then when you accept my offer to come to Detroit and do in OUR ghettos what you did in Israel, surely you will be treated to friendly offers of guest-housing and such.

Don't be such a cowardly bitch, HerrBiatchaLot....take up my offer...or shut the hell up, your racist, anti-Semitic Nazi bitch.
"@Santa, did you hear me open myself to the IDF member to explain the different denominations in Israel? Because you obviously didn't and are just as bad as a radical. "

Yes, and I also remember this...

"As a German, I need to be careful about what I say. But, I used to feel sorry for the Jews; I supported the Defense Force, I supported the expulsion of Palestine, and I liked the idea of Israel as a nation. But then I took a trip to Israel, they hissed and cursed at me, pushed at me, and assaulted my girlfriend. I punched out one of the Jews (yes, I am sure they were Jews) who was pushing me and my girlfriend towards the street and almost got arrested and was kicked out of the country. So now my response; fuck Israel and that entire nation of racist bigots. They are racist against Moslems, they are racist against Germans, and for fucks sake they are racist against non-Jews. Those bastards are unappreciative little bastards who deserve nothing of which has been given to them. Why should we make an Israeli nation? Because some bearded man in the heavens who only seems to talk to people of their race proclaimed that this desert was holy, and their, and that they should kill any non-Jews? What the fuck. We should not be helping these people. They are extremists, and racists, and bigots. I used to love Israel, but after a first hand experience on my second day there, I can state, I am not anti-Semitic, I am anti-Zionist. Leave the Arabic peninsula for the Arabs. I have met them, and had a great time in Dubai, and Afghanistan (that was work), and Saudi Arabia. They were nice, kind, gracious people who gave me the respect I gave them. I see no reason to kick them out of the land they have lived at for years for a bunch of disrespectful, bigoted Fotzen."

Who is the radical.
I will admit, some of what I said is too much, but recounting memories made me quite mad. I never said kill the Israelis, but I feel if they were to not treat us respectfully, after deciding to defend their claim and give them this land, why do they think they deserve it. I am sure not all Israelis are like that, but I was angry when I typed that. Best case scenario: We can learn to live in peace over this stretch of Earth. But as of recent, I have seemed to open up more to the Palestinian view point. I am still willing to listen to it be explained by an actual, non-radical Israeli.
"I never said kill the Israelis, but I feel if they were to not treat us respectfully, after deciding to defend their claim and give them this land, why do they think they deserve it. "

You just said the representatives of Israel, the police, treated you very respectfully. In the same light I think if "the Germans" don't stop joining neo-nazi rallies, I wonder why you think you deserve a unified Germany, I say split it back up because of the actions of a minority of your citizens...
@Krellin, tell me? Have these 'niggers' (I am not sure what this word means) been taking the land given to the Whites due to religious purposes. Is it a nationally known issue? Is there wars that rage daily that kills hundreds of children and other innocent civilians because bombs are being detonated by both sides. No? (As I have never heard of it). Then I have no opinion. As for these 'niggers' liking White 'bitches', I can only assume 'nigger' is some slang for North Africans (Niger -> Nigger maybe?), I have no problem with that. My cousin is married to a nice Turkish gentleman who, unlike most Turks in this country who tend to be poorer and belligerent, is a very nice man who has a great job and supports her well.
@Santa: I agree. Split it back up. Preußen, Baden-Württemberg, and Bayern. Except that would require the Polish giving Ost-Preußen and Danzig back; which I don't think would happen anytime soon.

HerrAssMunch....you do know what nigger means...your English is too perfect to not. don't play stupid, asshole. Do the blacks in Detroit feel disenfranchised by the whites? don't be an asshole, Mr. Nazi. Stop playing stupid. You feigned ignorance of racial politics in the US is proof-positive that you grasp my anaolgy....and that you grasp that your fucking retarded behavior in Israel....i.e. asking PRO-Hammas type questions to Israeli citizens who are under a regular assulat by Palestinian terrorists...was 100% wrong. You are a complete asshole. I truly do hope you take up my offe to come to Detroit. I'd love to read about them finding your pulverized, abused body in a crack house next to your girlfriend's.

@Herr "...as a German..." as opposed to as a fellow member of the human race. YOU are the type of asshole that thinks one person killing another because of the lottery of their birth is OK. For you....maybe it means you accept that Hammas can kill Isrealis...even though the bomb in the corner coffee shop killed innocent children...

You very description of yourself and your thinking says that you believe nationality is more important than humanity.

That being said, do I think that all violence, and all death is bad? NO! For example, when Russia and the Allied nations invaded Germany at the end of WWII and killed all the fucking Nazis running the concenrtration camps....that was just. That was righteous. THAT was in defense of humanity, directed towards the **specifc** perpetrators of a crime against humanity.

When some asshole Palestinian straps a bomb on himself and kills himself in a market square, with no thought to whom might die in the blast....he is not a a martyr. He is a fucking murderer, no less than a Nazi.

So when you throw your verbal support AGAIN an internationally recognized government (Isreal) in favor of an internationally recognized terrorist organization (Hammas)....you are the essential equivalent of a NAZI.

Again, not a Nazi. And you write me a list of questions that I should ask, and if I feel strongly about said cause, I will think about it. Does 'Nigger' mean North African (As we have similar problems with that demographic here in Europe); but I see no reason why there should be some great divide between White Europeans and Black North Africans. It is our land, but we are a prosperous land unlike North Africa; so I see no reason why we shouldn't be allowed to share it *if* we can live peacefully. If they won't live peacefully, I say deport them ON A CASE TO CASE BASIS, not all at once. It is our land, and has been our land for the past couple of millennia. And no; I have no idea of US Racial politics, I have only been there a couple of times and never payed too much attention to politics. And yes, I have good English. University and some trips to America; but I only know slang I pick up online and SOME racial slurs.

Six of the Best
Politicians get a lot of bad press in the modern age, and sadly a lot of it is deserved. The vast majority can be safely ignored without any risk of missing anything remotely interesting or useful to our lives. But in the sea of mediocrity float a few stars, a small number of voices that are worth noting. My question is: which politicians still have the power to make you stop and listen? Lets see a list of six of your best!
