Re: Barack Obama

Tim... Oh I'm just joking with Eddie (as he's always trying to put on over on me).

Jeb probably, ok definitely would have been a better Prez than his brother, but it'll never happen of course.

I'm really hoping McCain wins - he easily has the most experience, and long history of service and patriotism to our country.

Thanks Tim, but unfortunately, thanks to Mr Howard, if you want to become an aussie, you have to sit the citizenship test lol (bright idea that one )

And don't worry, i plan on sticking around lol

Obviously he has the most experience, he's like over 70

But it will be interesting to see a "Republican" win who is for gun control, climate change legislation, higher tobacco taxation, and opposes Bush's tax cuts.

Point of (geek) fact: there is no Vulcan Death Touch. There is a Vulcan Nerve Pinch, which is what I assume you're talking about.

Jason,

uber-geek factoid:

It's more than a nerve pinch. I think it needs to be combined with some sort of green-blooded mind-melding power-of-suggestion thingie. Otherwise we all could do it. )

mra,


My bad. The Vulcan Death Grip is in fact in TOS, "The Enterprise Incident" to be exact. It is entirely fictitious, though, a construct of Mr. Spock. The Vulcan Nerve Pinch, as it is named, is seen in multiple episodes being used by not only Mr. Spock and Vulcans, but also humans and Borg. (Granted, you could make a case that Picard's mind meld with Sarek made him "part" Vulcan...)

Jason

I didn't realise non-Vulcans did the pinch ever so often.

I forgot all about the "death grip".

Wow, next thing you know, you guys will be arguing about who could kick whose butt, Kirk or Picard?
