France, Russia, and the Chinese.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Ya, I think Putin will abstain considering we've given him the green light to take the leash off the dogs in Chechnya.We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. - Abraham LincolnComment

France may veto but who are they to talk considering they are running a War for Chocolate right now.
Oh the humanity!

I have a feeling that, when push comes to shove, France won't veto. I should imagine that Chirac has people close to him telling him that it'd be a bad idea, and he'd be smart to listen to them."Paul Hanson, you should give Gibraltar back to the Spanish" - Paiktis, dramatically over-estimating my influence in diplomatic circles.

It wouldn't be in France's or Russia's interests to veto, that's why they've been pushing so hard to make sure the US doesn't have the 9 votes. If the US has nine votes, then France's position is totally hosed whether they veto or not.
I doubt the Chinese care enough to veto.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Paul Hanson's quote is making me sick to my stomach.

I think it's actually a reference to a type of drink, IIRC.
And I've been considering changing it.

Oh, I didn't know it was a drink.
No problem, it's your quote so your freedom to do what you want. (But you already knew that.)

It's only your inherent oversexed nature that makes you automatically assume the word "blowjob" refers to human male semen and not to a drink consisting of baileys, creme de cacao and whatever crap the barteder throws in when I drunkingly order five at a time.
Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
