Ok, I couldn't bite my tongue any longer.........LOL.......a couple of comments on a couple of comments on the "Berkeley theory" as put forth by Riker20, Otis2 et al. and also something that Spidey and I totally agree on!!!
Spidey said: “Incidently, I don't see what the big deal is about off-topic posts. If you don't want to "waste your time" reading off-topic stuff, just don't open and read obviously off-topic threads. Problem solved.”
I have to agree entirely with that statement. If Riker29 or anyone else doesn’t like the thread, just don’t open and read it. The fact that those that oppose keep coming back for more and continue to complain says something about them. I am just not sure what exactly what that is though…….LOL

Frackal said: “What makes you think he is from berkley?”
Otis2 said: “didn't he say he was from there? well no, someone else did, oh well, i was just runnin with the whole theme”
Be it known!!!
It was Riker29 and Otis2 that put forth the sinister but ammusing “Berkeley theory.” The fact that you just parroted what they said and accepted it as fact is what conservatives and others do with things like “liberal media”—it has been said SO many times that it just MUST be true but no one ever really questions why it is a “fact”—you beautifully proved my point. I threw out the concept of a “conservative media” to jerk some chains, stir some shit up and see if anyone might actually use their brain, but guess what? Parroting is the order of the day. Pretty predictable really though. At least Frackal realized the obvious and probably even read my earlier reponse to Riker29’s "Berkeley theory" where I said “None of your assumptions are even close to the truth in your statement!” I thought that was fairly clear and did not need explaining but apparently not. And I guess that of anyone on this board, I would know if I live in Berkeley or not or fit the funny sterotype theory being put forth as it unfurled. So here it is, I do not live in Berkeley. I have never lived in Berkeley. From this, a thinking person would realize that I also did not go to school at Cal/Berkeley either and THAT person would be correct. Actually I went to a pretty conservative Ivy League school back east for my undergraduate work and a rather conservative Southern University for graduate work. However, I do admit that I was recently IN Berkeley to watch the pro bodybuilding show down there “Battle for the Bay” where Jay Cutler won the show. The Berkeley theory was so off the mark, that it is laughable (I have to admit that I was getting quite a bit of amusement out of it) as I don’t even live in the San Francisco Bay Area, or any county that even abutts any Bay Area County, or Silicon Valley for that matter. In other words, I don’t live anywhere even close to there. It is a pretty long drive for me.
Continuing on, I do not eat TOFU. I do not even like TOFU. In fact it can easily be stated that I strongly DISLIKE TOFU—I mean, honestly, why would I want to ingest something that has a tendency to increase female hormones anyway? I am into bodybuilding not building fat. I am not a vegan, have never been a vegan and thoroughly enjoy my bloody slabs of RED meat and other carcass derived "food products."
Moving forward, Inbathed bodies and unshaved pits and hairy, unshaved legs, do not work for me. But it is a free country somewhat and to each their own. Whatever turns your crank and frankly I don’t want to know. That is like WAY too much information.
As for hippie mellow types……..that’s pretty funny. Completely missed the mark on all counts there as well. Let’s see, I am a two time military veteran with two honorable discharges. Have shaved hair on my head and am always clean shaven. I do not fall into either a dove or a hawk category and [rather obviously] am not a conscientious objector to war, but I do consider the individual situation, pros and cons, and come to my own conclusions as to whether what we are doing is the best way to approach a situation. But to each their own again.
Well now, I have started Monday with a good laugh.....
