the cowman is an environmental disaster and one of the things we can all do is eat less beef and only eat grass fed not corn fed beef and try to avoid factory farm grown and processed beef.

This Montanan avoids horses and cattle whenever possible. They step on your feet and shit on the road. They infest backcountry trails with swarms of biting flies. The cows are good to eat, however, but like everyone else we get our beef from Iowa feed lots.
Most be-booted, be-hatted cowboys and cowgirls you run into at the Mint or that steak place up in Logan are faux all the way down to that big silver rodeo buckle they wear. All hat; no cattle; but with mighty big pickups. Most men and women who work cattle wear carharts, rubber boots,seed hats, and round up the herd with ATV's.

Atrios isn't thinking here. Farmers and Cowmen are natural enemies. Farmers protect for cultivation vast area of land in which they need to ward off all animal and human trespassers. Cowmen need free access to vast areas of land so their cows can graze. The range wars were fought over these conflicting priorities for the same land.

Both farmers and ranchers have had a negative impact on the American environment.
Both are responsible for land fragmentation : loss of habitate
Both are responsible for stopping the great fires that replenished the plains:
creation of vegatative monocultures.
both are responsible for damming and redirecting water: erosion and drought.
It's mostly a question of scale.

"Both farmers and ranchers have had a negative impact on the American environment."
Whoa ... not necessarily. Read Aldo Leopold on how the cowboy, farmer, and wildlife can co-inhabit the earth. We cherish conservation-minded farmers and ranchers for preserving open lands and wildlife habitat. Take a road trip between Billings (MT) and Livingston, MT and count the numbers of antelope and elk grazing in the fields. I trust that there probably more antelope now as a result of re-landscaping the West than their were 150 years ago. Then, there's Ted Turner's big buffalo ranch/range to the East of us, which resembles a great American Serentgetti, except that the buffalo have ear tags ... and the grey wolf roams unmolested there. Certainly there are more deer than 100 years ago, but that's not an unadulterated good. It's a big, complex issue.

There are many forward minded farmers and ranchers both that are currently doing their part to co-exist with the environment in a balanced way and manage their land responsibly.
And I'm aware that it's a big complex issue. I've spent a great amount of time studying the issue, and have been certified to, among other things, assist landowners with management.

why did the easter bunny hide all the eggs?

HAMAS DID ENDORSE OBAMA. OBAMA DOES HAVE TIES TO MANY ANTI-AMERICANS AND TERRORISTS. DON’T FORGET 9/11!
OBAMA SAID WE HAVE 57 STATES — WHAT COUNTRY IS HE RUNNING IN? WHAT ELSE IS HE HIDING FROM US? WHAT’S HE UP TO NOW?
IS HE PLANNING A MERGER WITH TERRORIST COUNTRIES?

I pointed out that Obama gets 90$ of the black vote and no one calls it racist. As further evidence, I point out that clintoon gets 70% of the white vote and everyone calls it racist.
It's not the vote, but the reasons behind the vote.
Maybe there's anti-white sentiment in the AA votes for Barack, but we have seen evidence, graphic and horrid evidence, that there are anti-black Hillary votes.

Gaining Seats, Democrats Find Their House Ideologically Divided
By CARL HULSE
While much of the Congressional political focus has been on the declining fortunes and numbers of House Republicans, House Democrats have their own problem: They are winning too many elections.
Just in general. Lotta folks mentioning graduating spawn, nieces, nephews, g/kids, etc.
Long as were promoting, our 17 year old of previous mention graduates next weekend. She's off to the University of Louisville with a scholarship. Hopes to be the doctor that i never made it to be.
It isn't an argument, coward. You don't know how to argue or fight.

Foreign policy is actuaslly Obama's main advantage. They are more similar on some things than anyone would like to admit, but then there are some things that have an inflated importance (it helps the economy to have a president who isn't retarded, but a president can't necessarily seriously change the economy in even his first few years); nevertheless Obama is the only candidate right now who is not a psychopath itching to massacre Iranians. Americans appear to have woken up to how hard this mideastering thing is and the brainless bravado of Team Conventional Wisdom is a Cole hole in the side of American military confidence.

When the younger set ask me how old i aqm, i answer "Old enough to remember when Saturday Night Live was funny."
Many are amazed that i'm that old. And those under 30 can't imagine that it ever was.

Please enlighten us. When you're a politician making public statements about policy and intention while running for the biggest military overseeing job on Earth what exactly is the difference between saying something and just pretending you're saying something? Do the Iranians have any particular reason to doubt the word of the Senator from New York?

Mine works purely on gravity. I drain H2O from the rain barrel into watering can and use the watering can to water wherever I want.
I just got it last year, but I love it.

Here I am, 56, overweight (but working on it) arthritic, diabetic, out of shape, why, even an ugly old white guy like myself, I get hot, brainy chicks (well, chick) throwing themselves (well, themself) at me.
Why, because I'm smart, liberal, funny, do not take myself seriously, and, (as I was told) the proof that Kimiko-san made the right choice, was my then current bedside book, a volume of Feynman's Caltech physics lectures.
The best tobypudluby can do is buy the services of some REALLY desperate crack whore.

If anyone is keeping track of such things, the Great Lakes States along with the government of Canada (With the blessing of the US Government) have entered a pact concerning Great Lakes Basin Water.
Any diversion of water must be met with approval of all members including the Canadian government.
Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana and New York have signed the 27-page compact and the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec have approved it in principle. For it to take effect, it also must be signed by Wisconsin, Ohio and Pennsylvania -- all of whose legislatures have it under consideration -- and then approved by the U.S. Congress.
The historic agreement, granting surrounding states and provinces power over use of water in the five Great Lakes as well as lakes, streams and underground aquifers in the Great Lakes Basin, would be a stronger replacement for an existing agreement among the states and provinces. Experts say it would offer better protection against raids on this area's fresh water by dry states, regions or countries.
One of the key provisions in the compact says unanimous approval from the states and provinces would be required for any proposal that would suck 5 million gallons a day or more from the Great Lakes or the other waterways in the Great Lakes Basin.
the idea that scary scary Islamic Republic of Iran means the House of
Saud will be getting, courtesy of a Texas Republican, nukular stuff, is
just too fucking funny.
It's like the banker is screaming at the robbers "if you don't leave right now I'll throw all of my money at you at once!"

It's gonna be packed, and doesn't start until 2:30, so we'll see. I really, really want to see him speak in person.

DWD,
It's nice. SCOTUS will overturn it and our grandkids will be at war w Canada over H2O in our lifetimes, but that may hold for a few years. Living between the thirsty hordes and the Great Lakes may turn out not to be so brilliant in time

Hey, Vicki - you do realize it's National Masturbation Month?
Too bad you won't be out here next weekend - we could go check out the Masturbate-a-Thon!
It is? I had no idea.
Maybe this FOX employee was celebrating the occasion when he got caught, um, pleasuring himself in Tampa yesterday.

Not even in the running. Dubya's been at it nonstop his entire friggin' life. Can she beat sixty-two years?

Off to read Mein Kampf and The Communist Manifesto.
I would recommend de Gobineau's "Essay on the Inequality of the Races" (the pioneering work of modern racism) and Marx's "The German Ideology"(a much better exposition of Marxist doctrine than the relatively superficial Manifesto).
Jest sayin'...

Well, time for me to take a brief time out from the hijinx here.
Got a short iChat video conference scheduled with Kimiko-san in Japan shortly, and then I need to watch the new Doctor Who episode.
Who knows, maybe there'll be a nice juicy physics or other science discussion going on, and the trolls will be absolutely lost.
Little Boots, the most I can do for Mlle is nothing at all right now, save to let her know that I believe she can work hard and beat this.
And maybe that's all you can do. But now I feel like Dr. Phil, and that hurts. So I'll just say, you probably know what she needs (and now the Dr. Phil meter has hit 100, so I'll just stop there).

Fuck.
Have you ever had a phone call that feels like a punch in the gut?
So my brother calls from SoCal. Just went to our cousins wedding. Talked to our eldest cousin, a quiet, reserved guy. Starts opening up about our dad's death. He was drunk, got hit by a train.
My cousin says his mom woke up in the middle of the night and said something bad has happened to our dad.
30 fucking years and this is the first I've heard this.
Mein Kampf. Do people still read Marx?

Sixty-eight per cent of Italians want gypsies expelled. You know who else hated gypsies?
We had a friend who studied in Italy briefly and around the first thing that happened once she got to her dorm was she was mugged by Gypsies at knifepoint.

In response to your question a couple of nights ago:
If anyone is keeping track of such things, the Great Lakes States along with the government of Canada (With the blessing of the US Government) have entered a pact concerning Great Lakes Basin Water.
Waterworld. Catch the fever.

She's like those Kenyan guys who can do a marathon in less than 3 hours.
Speaking of which, tomorrow is the Bay to Breakers - not exactly a marathon, but the Hayes Street hill is a bitch and the Kenyans always win the "official" portion, anyway.
When I used to live out in the Sunset, the afternoon and evening was a time of people driving around looking for parking so they could jump in their cars and head home when they finished the race, and tomorrow morning always meant being awakened by the tour buses parking down the street to pick up the patrons who hadn't brought their cars in the night before.

You're a liar.
YOu're a fucking fraud. You're not a stupid, ignorant wingnut. You're some idiot just playing a part. You're acting. You're just trying to get a rise. You're playing up the part of a troll, and everybody laps it up.
Good job, dude, whoever you are.

But, Hecate, as I have often stated: there is plenty of room for growth and people here if they want. If they want to FRY down South, that is their choice. If they would like to move here, they are welcome. Michigan is a BIG place and largely unpopulated. There is room for a lot of growth here. You are welcome to come.
But we love the earth here, remember that.

Well, he created the Columbian connection at the same time.
And, after all, he did run away from both TANG and AANG and was too skeered to fly any more.
The Colombian thing might have been the only thing he accomplished in that time.

It got so bad that, in the middle of one trouncing, Dr Mrs Gromit got in the face of some North End parent and said "Well our kids are better at spelling!"
Oh, hell - I was the LEAST competitive coach that there ever was - (we) just wanted the kids to have some fun and (hopefully) learn something of the game. (Our adversaries were these middle-aged Vic Morrow types who took the whole thing VERY seriously..) I can probably state, categorically, that I was the only coach in that league's history to take the field wearing a Velvet Underground t-shirt...)
But, still - It WAS the North End, and it was made very clear to us that most of these kids were from broken homes, and perhaps didn't have many positive (male) role models in their lives. That part I took VERY seriously, and I'm still goddamned proud that I did whatever I could do for those kids. (And I did this during my misspent rock 'n roll youth, so on some level, I know I'm not a bad person...
