Technically, an Assassination is murder of a high profile or famous person, where as murder is just the murder of "joe the plumber".
Personally, I don't think there is a difference being that everyones life is just as valuable no matter how many people know their name.
Its also said that its only an assassination if the person has made an ass out of themselves twice as much as anyone else.
Q: Alright, its old news, but I'm interested, do you think the arrest of the Harvard professor was racism or the right call.

Don't think theres a salary cut off, Abraham Lincoln was never "wealthy", Mother Theresa, Booker T Washington, Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman...none of those people were ever wealthy, many lived in poverty, but were well known enough and did enough to be considered assassinations if they were murdered. In my opinion atleast.
Q: Does garmoon plan to off somebody and wants to know if it will be a murder or an assassination?

A: I don't think there is a perfect crime, but with proper forensics training I think you could do a good job cleaning up afterwards...and at the risk of sounding like I've planned on doing it or have done it, I think a septic tank would be the perfect place...No one goes in them..they are dark and big, and there are billions of bacteria that thrive and eat decaying material..which would make quick work of the "evidence" and no one would question why you are digging there. AND there are plenty of potent acids that are used to clean septic tanks that are simply flushed down the toilet, again, no suspicion to be raised there....
Q: Do I sound like a serial killer or someone who has planned this?

Q. will "Cap and Trade and "Socialized Medicine" be the straw that broke the camels back if it goes though ? or are we already there?
BTW i looked up Assassination here is what it says:
Assassination is the targeted killing of a public figure. Assassinations may be prompted by ideological, political, or military reasons. Additionally, assassins may be motivated by financial gain, revenge, personal public recognition, or mental illness.
Targeted killing (or extrajudicial punishment/execution) is also used as a euphemism for the government-sanctioned killing of opponents or a dysphemism for legitimate attacks on high-profile enemy combatants.[1]
In figurative language usage, the word "assassination" may also be used in colloquial speech as a hyperbole, as in the phrase character assassination, meaning an attempt to impugn another's character, and thus kill, or "assassinate" his reputation and credibility.

A: I think we are already there. I honestly do not see a turn around with how things are going. There are simply too many pockets being lined and everything being pushed through now is aiding that. We are moving very steadily towards being full fledged Communism against our wills. Sure, Canada has health care for all...but how good is the health care?
All of the "economic stimulus" that somehow ends up in the pockets of corporations that are the reason we are in this predicament in the first place? Come on, Obama's supporters are even stopping and saying..."well shit, he is fucking everything up".
The problem with our government is the "checks and balances" system went out the window a long time ago. Who ever is in power has the ability to surround themselves with what their ideals are. The problem with Obama is he has taken this "time for change" thing too far, and thinks that his ideas are perfect. Sure we need change, but that doesn't mean what he's thought up is the answer, but he's pushing things through and using "fright" to get them approved without them even being able to read what they are approving.
At the same time, it is their fault for NOT reading these bills thoroughly. I can't remember his name, but I do recall seeing one of the congressmen say "I don't even read the bills, there is no way I can read 1100 pages in 2 days, and I have to have a lawyer tell me what it means anyway, so I don't bother." WHAT A LOAD OF SHIT!!! How is that possible, the people signing these bills don't even understand them? I think that should be rule #1, you have to understand policies and legal writing!!!
Sorry, getting off my soapbox now...

I'm on the fence when it comes to paranormal activity. I personally have not had any experiences but people I trust a lot have told me of some. I do believe there is more than we can see.
Take my grandmothers old house for example, there was a back bedroom where my granddad kept all of his old war stuff and other things he had collected during his time in the military(he was a retired General). This included spent bullets from the battlegrounds, the bullet removed from his hip, and other things that had a bad history tied to them.
Not only did I notice this, but without saying anything to other family members, more of us felt the same thing. It was a sense of dread and heaviness when you entered the room. It was just that one room, outside in the hallway it was fine, but when you were in that room you felt horrible, like you had just heard really bad news about a loved one.
Q: Would you consider that a "paranormal experience"?

A - Well, those people that can supposedly talk to the dead are considered paranormal (more commonly considered fakes), so I guess it is paranormal... probably anything relating to death that isn't normal is paranormal.

A: The one sitting unfinished on the tapes for his next record.. the one we will hopefully never hear.
Q : logical assimilation.. Apparently angels have the gift of instantaneous travel from say point A to point B.. So lets say while moving from A to B the angel decides to stop off at point C .. Does the time taken at point C count in the overall time taken on the journey?
Extra points question.. only answer if you have the time left at the end of the paper..
Angels.. well I'm supposedly seen in many cultures as a spiritual being i.e. an angel... Do I need to get a life and stop worrying about things like the time it takes to get somewhere?

A - Well, it is instantaneous, so there would be no time to add to the time of the journey (and the journey would take no time), because it is instantaneous.
You asked two questions, but yes, you do.

Well as Ken Dodd's dad died about 40 years ago I would assume with dogs having an average lifespan of around 14 years it will be long gone..

"Wiki" can be expanded as "What I Know Is," but this is a backronym.
Who thinks that varnull's words for facebook and twitter, Fuglybbook and Twatter, are awesome?
