I saw a documentary on this where they took a criminal low life and gave him a responsible job and a luxurious lifestyle and then took upstanding citizen and dishonered him and had him arrested.

This study showed it was the nurture that was the predominant factor as I recall.

The box w/ the baby would probably be detonated out on the tarmac. Just like Hank Hill's poor smoked turkey.

lol....

Best line from the movie was when Eddie was in jail talking smack about being a Kung Fu expert ("Bruce Lee was my teacher" ;) ) and how the cops tear gassed him because he had put up so much of a fight. He insults a huge black guy in the same cell and when the guy gets up to go beat the crap out of Murphy the guy says:

"It ain't cool being no jive turkey this close to Thanksgiving."

lol...cracks me up...what a great quote.

Curly hair for Black USA. Did she have straight hair for Miss Nevada? You don't suppose she was pandering to the judges, do you?

I can stand any society. All that I care to know is that a man is a human being--that is enough for me; he can't be any worse.

Yeah, but the rope would be made out of macramaed hemp and you could just smoke it and get away.
