And
when,
oh
dumb one, wase the list of accomplishments of the Arab
people "accomplished," as it were. More than 100 years ago.
As
I
stated.


You did not state any of the accomplishments over 100 yrs ago,
you
just
stated : "The reality is that for at least the last 100
years,
the
so-called Arab states have contributed absolutely nothing to
the
furthering
of society"

It is so easy to see Harry flip flop on issues, just type in
any
subject
in
Google and you can see Harry arguing the extreme on both sides
of
any
debate.

As badly as I wanted to include the caveat "in the last 100
years"
in
my
criticism of Arabs, I was afraid I'd tip him off to my troll. I
have
to
say...I couldn't have asked for a better reply to my post
however.
He
sometimes diverts course a bit, and I expected a mild rebuke in
this
case.
But "who woulda thunk it" that he'd do a complete 180!?!?



If you *had* included that time limitation in your troll, you
would've
snared YOURSELF. You understand why, right?

No.

If yes, explain why.

Since the answer is "no", *you* must explain why.

Here's my original post, with the 100-year caveat added:

"The Arab nations hated us before Bush, and hate us even more now.
****
'em. What have they contributed to society (in the last 100 years)
except
for oil...which we helped them discover?"

Time for you to hit the books, then. Do you know how to find your
public
library? What you need will not be found on the web.

Negative contributions to society don't count. I obviously needed to
add
an
additional caveat for the anal retentives: "what positive contributions
have
they made in the last 100 years?".

Nevertheless, the whole point of the post was to express my agreement
with
Harry's statement from 2 years ago...and see if he changed his stance
again.



You're stuck on the subject of what Arabs have done to the rest of the
world

Not "done to", but "done for" the rest of the World. What positive
contributions have they made?

during the past 100 years. Reverse that, and get your silly ass to the
library.

I don't go to the library ever since the Patriot Act was passed. Too many

Here's the "recipe":
Remove the heads and peel the shrimp. Place them in a tupperware container,
and fill with kosher salt or pickling salt. Shake the container and let it
sit about a week.
Doesn't even need to be refrigerated. Works best with fresh shrimp or those
that recently died.

If you're like me, you end up "renting" a lot of shrimp. I always toss a
bunch back at the end of the day. Next time I have some left over, I'm
salt-curing them.

I'll try to dig it up. It was in either Florida Sportsman or Sal****er
Sportsman in the last 12 months...I think. I keep all of the old
issues,
and when I'm looking for info about fishing in June, I have 4 years
worth of
June issues to read through...so I may have picked up the article in a
back
issue.

It was pretty simple, though. Lay down a heavy layer of salt. Place a
single layer of shrimp on top, and then cover with another heavy layer
of
salt.

BTW, we were using both blood worms and shrimp. The blood worms were

Were they fresh shrimp? Or previously frozen? For unfrozen but dead
dhrimp, I found a one hour dunking in Diet Pepsi made them
irresistable
to whiting, a variety, sadly, not found in the Bay. At least I've not
found any.

I don't much like using frozen shrimp as bait. It disintegrates and
falls off the hook too fast.


I read where you can "salt-cure" the shrimp after they die and it

toughens

them up. You can then store them unrefrigerated. I haven't tried it,

but

the article I read says the salt-cured shrimp stay on the hook much

better

than the frozen stuff, stores easier, and works just as well for
tipping
jigs.




Ever tried a D.O.A. shrimp?


DOA shrimp in "glow" color catches just about anything in SW
Florida...except when the bait fish are plentiful in the late spring,
summer, and early fall , and the fish have a better selection of food
sources. I've tried the other colors without any luck. You can buy a
48-pack direct from DOA on their website. However, it's a variety pack

of

different colors. They'll do all one color, but you have to call them

on

the phone and request it.




Love to see that article on the salt cure for shrimp....






Thanks. I still subscribe to FS, which I consider the best fishing mag
in the known universe. I even have a vague memory of the article you are
mentioning.

If *this* country had been sliced up and rearranged into meaningless
arrangements by foreign powers and a number of wars, you'd find that OUR
contributions would be hindered somewhat. Survival would become more

So what you're saying is that you can't list any positive contributions to
society from the Arab world in the last 100 years. Isn't that what I said
last week? And what Harry said 2 1/2 years ago...before he changed his mind?

Your liberalism is showing here. If someone's on welfare, it must be the
fault of the wealthy. Right? If a a guy's head is severed from his body in
front of a video camera, it's the victim's fault. If the Arabs haven't made
one positive contribution to society in the last 100 years, it's the fault
of the West.

The article I was referencing was one I had mentioned back in January. I
haven't been able to find the specific article, but it talked about how
women have a tendency to vote for a Democrat when they achieve higher levels
of education...and men's voting habits go in the exact opposite direction
(they tend to vote for Republicans).

I'd bet that net income tracks voting more accurately than education.
And while there is a Young Republican "movement" on the campuses around
here (and I'd guess around elsewhere in the country too), college
populations are overwhelmingly liberal & Democrat (the two aren't the
same thing, no matter what you & Rush say).

I said nothing of the kind. What I said is true. If a country or region is
ravaged by war, or politically manipulated in ways which were not designed
to benefit the region, it has SOME EFFECT on the ability to function in what
you or I would consider "normal". But, you deny that the Middle East has
been touched by us, Europe or Russia over the past 100 years, so this is
probably difficult for you to comprehend.
