Impossible. Only Chuck Norris can make that claim. Wait...are you Chuck Norris?Originally posted by BigFatMeanie View PostI've seen the copy on display the British Library. That means I am cool.

That is cool. Did you see the entire display? I've not had the privilege of going to the British Library. Do they have copies of the First, Second and of the 1225 reissuance?Originally posted by BigFatMeanie View PostI've seen the copy on display the British Library. That means I am cool.

I saw one at Salisbury Cathedral in 1988, back when it wasn't so old. I have no idea which copy that makes it, but it was very cool to see in person.Originally posted by Topper View PostThat is cool.

If I were Trump I wouldn't eat with his hands either.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostThe Doofus-In-Chief also eats his NY pizza with a fork, and orders his steaks well done.
One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls. Honest and passionate folks can strongly disagree regarding spiritual matters, so it's imperative that we not allow such considerations to infringe on the real happiness of real people.

I believe religion has much inherent good and has born many good fruits.

The 1215 original is on display. It's one of only 4 surviving copies. I don't know where the other 3 are. It was pretty hard to read, all blurry and faded like the Declaration of Independence and that old-school script is dang hard to decipher, so they have a modern printed version projected onto the wall that I spent a good chunk of time reading. They had a bunch of other Magna Carta stuff there, possibly the other editions you are talking about, but by the time I got done reading the text on the wall I was bored with the Magna Carta and went to go look at the original manuscript of Handel's Messiah (yeah, I know, I'm an uncouth barbarian).Originally posted by Topper View PostThat is cool.

Well color me jealous. I think there is one in Lincoln, but I am uncertain where the other two are. It is remarkable that a document to settle a dispute between a hated king and a bunch of barons as mediated by the Pope became the symbol of rights to citizens of the land.Originally posted by BigFatMeanie View PostThe 1215 original is on display.

That's the best preserved copy, so way cool.Originally posted by Bo Diddley View PostI saw one at Salisbury Cathedral in 1988, back when it wasn't so old. I have no idea which copy that makes it, but it was very cool to see in person."Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

This is the whole board politically now. Not even IPU and Hallelujah worried about making sure they mocked what and how Obama ate, and we all acknowledged they were crazy politically. We as a country really need a great unifying candidate in 2024. Maybe and elder of Zion can appear on a white horse to save our country hanging by a thread.Originally posted by cowboy View Post???

You have my vote. I suggest Donny Osmond as your running mate. You in your pastel suits and him in his purple socks would be a shoe-in. When you win, I'd like to discuss some issues I have with the Forest Service...Originally posted by HuskyFreeNorthwest View PostThis is the whole board politically now.

The ostensibly Republican president is casually threatening one of the biggest companies with increased taxes. Yeah, nothing out of the ordinary about that.
"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

How many times do Trump's disgusting food choices and ugly orange skin need to be mentioned before he qualifies as living rent free in someone's head? 2024 can't get here soon enough.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostThat's funny.
