Why (in aviation terms), is it called a 'near miss'. Isn't a NEAR MISS a HIT???? The two planes NEARLY MISSED. Shouldn't it be called a 'near hit'????

Aggrevated Assault, Aggrevated Robbery....what the hell is that? Was the perp pissed off when he committed the act? Was he aggrevated? (worse than plain old, garden variety assualt/robbery)

Chicken fried steak, we have chicken fried chicken, but no steak fried chicken, or steak fried steak, isn't it just FRIED STEAK?????

Dipole/bipole/maypole....I just don't get it.

    Oh MAN! You trying to load me up with bad karma or what. Lay-off the near miss stuff mon! Now I have to light incense and candles and **** next time I work. Don't DO that stuff.

    Another big one with me is, I don't kill anything else that flies. ESPECIALLY while flying. Nest of hornets in the airplane. LEAVE THEM BE!! I would not want a giant hand swatting me out of the air someday.

    Are we talkin' a little George Carlin here, Russ? Caught you! Ironically, I watched that bit late last night on some cable channel.

    Talk about "ponder," I don't think this is the place to get into a political discussion, but think about this:

    The twin towers are gone. They are GONE.

    And the people who did it? They got away with it.

    Daniel Pearl? An American citizen (stupid enough to meet with the barbarians alone, but still...), brutally murdered ON VIDEO by savages.

    And what have we done? They have gotten away with it.

    I like to think of America as a huge HAMMER: we are the top of the food chain, the head honchos, the most powerful country on earth. We are. No one else has the means to deliver the goods.

    So... Why has the hammer not swung down on these uncivilized hoards and KILLED THEM ALL? Who are we worried about? Who's opinion are we worried about? The UN? Saudi Arabia? Russia?

    The twin towers are GONE. And the murders missed a really big score there by just a matter of say an hour. THE TWIN TOWERS ARE GONE. BOMBED OUT. And we have done nothing about it. Ponder that.

    PONDER THAT!

    Virginity like bubble, one ****, all gone.

    Man who run in front of car get tired.

    Man who run behind car get exhausted.

    Man with hand in pocket feel cocky all day.

    Man who walk through airport turnstile sideways going to
    Bangkok.

    Man with one chopstick go hungry.

    Man who scratch **** should not bite fingernails.

    Baseball is wrong: man with four balls cannot walk.

    Panties not best thing on earth! but next to best thing on
    earth.

    War does not determine who is right, war determine who is left.

    Wife who put husband in doghouse soon find him in cat house.

    Man who fight with wife all day get no piece at night.

    It take many nails to build crib, but one screw to fill it.

    Man who drive like hell, bound to get there.

    Crowded elevator smell different to midget.
