I would have really liked to see him embalmed and placed at the wtc wiith pigs feet crammed up every hole in his body and hung upside down on an inverted cross just to really piss the mullahs off.

My understanding is that he was buried at sea at an undisclosed location to prevent any attempt for Muslims to memorialize him at a specific location.

That is also what would be said if he were taken alive, interrogated at length, and then silently executed somewhere.

I'm going to catch heck for this but ...

That is also what would be said if he died of kidney failure before anyone could get to him, and the government wanted to make it look like they got him.

Kyle,

I know what you are going to say next (... because I'm a conspiracy theorist ... Duh!). You see, after I answer that it doesn't really pay all that well (how could it?), then you are planning to come back on here and say:

Well ... don't quit your day job, then! :-)

I'm pretty good at this, huh?

:-)

... or not. I'll let you be the judge. After all, only you can know if I was right about your "conspiracy" to take a little pot-shot at me -- all in good fun, of course.

:-)

[hands open ... still haven't caught anything yet; as it seems like nothing has been thrown (though Kyle went through a telegraphed pitcher's wind-up)]

p.s. Jules, Jesse grew up about 30 miles away from me. I used to watch him on something called AWA Wrestling -- along with Verne Gagne, The Crusher, Baron von Raschke ("the Claw") and Superfly Jimmy Snuka. Ventura's a performer, all right. He wore speedo's and pink feathers AFTER pink feathers were cool. I don't think speedo's ever were cool, except for when Tarzan and James Bond wore them. But now I digress.

Speaking of conspiracy theory I postulate one of the reasons christians and non objectivists attempt to marginalize us and label us as crackpots.
Fear on a visceral level.
Religion and statism have been around for thousands of years and as such have become a societal meme even though they are bad memes.
What Ayn Rand has given us in concrete form is an extremely good meme. It represents a shift in conscious thought action and deed that can be so powerful simply by allowing one to sweep away patterns of behaviour that what is left as a result is the ability to truly survive, thrive and out compete anyone that does not follow the same system of thought.

Think of it as Neo did in the matrix when confronting agent smith.
" hmmm...upgrades".
Not only do we have upgrades..we have an entirely different streamlined operating system.
It can be applied in small ways or on a grand scale of innovation.
One small example would be my dispatcher at work has a job that needs to be done on a sunday. The religious guy turns down the work by saying I am excercising my right of refusal based on religious freedom I have to go to church on sunday. The objectivist replies I will grab that! "Woohoo overtime!"
Now even though the religious man and the believer in statism are habitually praacticing self delusion and internal dishonesty I think that they see on a subconcious level of freedom objectivism offers but they are too mired in that old meme that they feel fear instead.
On an evolutionary scale I believe what they fear is exctinction.

So there is my crackpot conspiracy theory of the day..now back to work I go..

Ed,

You either overestimate my creative ability or underestimate the integrity of my character. I never think that far ahead when making a joke nor do I possess the lowly traits that would allow me to take a "pot-shot" at you.

As it turns out, due to your misjudgement of my intention, your not cut out for the noble profession of the conspiracy theorist, since you can't even determine conspiracy from non-conspiracy.

So....uhhh..DON'T QUIT YOUR DAY JOB.
