Okay punks!

First off I enjoy this site a lot and most of you here including all the witty banter and what not. However over the last three months I've been going off the end about a lot of stuff, and some I did for fun and some I believe in. Anyhow I'm done.

I now will post facts on topics at hand. If it's something that falls under the WTF is he thinking. I will post facts. That way the debate can be on the fact and not on the "Smoking of something that affects one judgment." (Which I don't do as a fact) What I believe and what needs to be brought out can only be said with facts or it's just a bunch of crap, or verbal diarrhea. So... if I experience something. If I succeeded in anyway - eg. everyones favorite topic "Remitance" - then I will post it. With facts and data.

It should be fun!

Here is on fact.

Did you know that every single Police force is a run-for-profit organisation that can be found trading on Dun & Bradstreet?

Dude, WTF are you thinking? Obviously smoking something that affects your judgement.

How does that prove anything?

D&B is a database of businesses, probably anything that is legally incorporated, but it is not limited to "run-for-profit"

Tower is hilariously insane. I've got a friend like this that just moves from one conspiracy to another. He was on Hovind's evolutionary public school conspiracy, then 9/11, now the current market crisis. I've just given up trying to convince him that he is mentally unfit to be a teacher and moved on to being entertained.

Since when is D&B an exchange? There's no trading on D&B, in fact D&B is an entity listed on the NYSE (DNB).

My brother is a big conspiracy theory buff too. I can't believe how gullible he is about this stuff, especially anything to do with spirituality and aliens. I like reading about conspiracy theories because they're often more entertaining than regular fantasy fiction, and heck, there's bound to be some truth involved in some conspiracy theories even, but how he can swallow that junk hook, line and sinker baffles me. Similarly, I feel the same way about politicians and the mainstream media, which leave me with little to believe in. I do believe I'll have another beer though.

Incidentally, that address is a tri-services center which includes police, fire, EMS and by-law (really, someone should get to the bottom of why it's a TRI services center and not a QUAD... sounds fishy to me).

They are all in co-hoots.

Speaking of hoots, nice thread Tower.

So are we to start addressing you as Father T@T, or do you prefer Reverend?
