I believe the white stuff is equivalent to pee (nitrogeneous waste - birds don't really urinate)...the little brown dot you sometimes see as well would be the poo.
And did the previous post just use the "R" word?

Blue just won't give up IE...It's a loyalty that baffles me.
I scream at him weekly to at least TRY Firefox (knowing that nobody would ever go back to IE after), not only for security and speed issues; but knowing how much the composition of THIS PAGE would be accelerated by FF's HTML authoring extensions that would integrate so perfectly with Blammo.
<sigh>...It should be a bumpersticker: "Friends don't let friends use IE".

Devicer had slipped over the border to the lawlessness that is Pennsylvania and picked up a fairly professional assortment of explosives.
Must have been black market stuff because the real 'professional' stuff is illegal in PA. The best you can get from the roadside stands are sparklers and smoke bombs. Everyone I know goes to Ohio or Virginia for the real deal.
Actually, the good stuff is illegal in Pennsylvania only for Pennsylvania Residents (and the roadside tents are for punks). If you show an out-of-state ID, and sign waivers saying you're immediately leaving the state, you're allowed admission to stores that stock the "good stuff", meaning: Arial Charges up to 500 grams apiece. Obviously this isn't "pro" size, but it's as much as any state will allow you to buy without a pyro license.
Blue and I released over a gross of medium sized mortars - many of which had two or three breaks of decent size at about 200ft altitude. The show ended with a couple of large Grucci arial pieces that could have finished any small-town civic-sponsored event.
Pennsylvania may not be West Virginia or South Carolina, but it still gets the job done pretty well.

Amen.
Screw "travel shows". Just go to Mexico, our third world neighbor. Some of my most vivid memories of towns like Merida in the Yucatan are of the stark contrasts between the heavily gilded churches and the abject poverty of the people.
Just my two vents. : )

from Washington Post 2/03:
" ...the problem here is the implication that some members of the Bush team have been doing Israel's bidding and, by extension, harbor dual loyalties. The charge that the administration's "rabid Israel supporters" are behind the drive to war is risible. Perle and Wolfowitz and their fellow Jewish neoconservatives are surely hawks -- but not merely on Iraq. Their expansive view of America's overseas obligations has in the past led them to support interventions wherever America's interests and ideals have been threatened: Grenada, Afghanistan, Nicaragua, Bosnia, Kosovo -- in the last two cases for the explicit purpose of protecting Muslims. Many of these officials have also had profound disagreements with their Israeli counterparts -- not least on the question of whether Iran or Iraq presents the greater threat. Then, too, the Cabinet-level officials driving the current debate have mostly been non-Jewish Goldwater Republicans whose brand of conservatism hardly qualifies as "neo." In fact, the claim that Jewish officials with close ties to Israel have been driving the Bush team's policy toward Iraq could just as easily have been leveled against the previous administration, whose Iraq policy was the opposite of the current one. For that matter, a cursory review of the literature opposing war in Iraq reveals that the charge of "Jewish-American hysteria" could just as easily apply to opponents of an invasion.
But the real problem with claims such as these is not just that they are untrue. The problem is that they are toxic. Invoking the specter of dual loyalty to quiet criticism and debate amounts to more than the everyday pollution of public discourse. It is the nullification of public discourse, for how can one refute accusations grounded in ethnicity? The charges are, ipso facto, impossible to disprove. And so they are meant to be."
The writer is a senior editor at the New Republic and co-author, with William Kristol, of the forthcoming book "The War Over Iraq."}
