Seriousfan.....
believe me.. I can last much longer than 3 weeks without drooling over Mr. Clooney... I actually don't find him overly attractive (I know.. I know.. I must be crazy).
You are probably pretty close to the truth when you say that Texas is going to make out well over the oil issue... personally I don't have a problem with that... I would rather see companies in Texas (or any other state in the USA) make money on the oil situation than the forgein countries that do currently. In my opinion that comes back to taking care of our own before taking care of the rest. (But I think that is entirely another issue).
Like I said before, I won't be giving my hard earned money to those celebrities that are outspoken on their anti war stance... I do agree that it is their RIGHT to do so and that they should be allowed to excersize it. However, Freedom isn't free in any aspect and excersizing this RIGHT at this particular time comes at a price... and those that wish to be outspoken are taking the risk of me and millions of others boycotting their films, music, books, etc.
I am a staunch supporter of the RIGHTS that we have in this country including freedom of speech. People seem to fail to remember that these Rights come at a price.
Irish.. up until the last couple years I have paid little attention to the Prime Minister (which I am completely ashamed of since my Mom is from England) but I must say that I am pleased with Mr. Blair's performance thru all of this.
stepping off the soap box again
Note: My strong opinions is probably one of the reasons I am single.. ROFL...
