Click and Clack? I love Car Talk, those dudes crack me up! But I am not a fan of most talk radio shows in general.

Yup. Especially on NPR.
I got a cd that has several of their shows for my birthday last year.

Side from listening to them on occasion, I only use NPR for music. Weekend blues and the classical music station.

Just talked to a buddie at the Academy, she is pretty sure there ain't any Wiccans at the place, she asked around and no one knows any, perhaps it's just a political move.

The Academy actually has a surprisingly strong Christian influence, something that was complained about by that "anti religion in the Military guy" a while back.

Maybe this is just a placation by higher-up to get the political BSers off their backs so they can get back to training our future leaders.

Could be just a clever ploy to get the Wiccans to come out of the closet and get them all in one spot. Then you can put salt on their tails.

Isn't that what you do to Wiccans? Or is that Chupacabras?
I could be wrong.

Now why would the USAFA want to mess with a group of ffolkes who want to be at one with nature and not force their beliefs upon everyone else like some of the other more mainstream groups they've had to deal with up there - could it be the precursor to the next great hyped-up threat to their R&D budget plans - the Hogwarts ABM (Anti-Broom Missle) or something to keep America's skies safe for Democracy at around $800M or so per copy.

I can hardly wait to see what the repeal of 'Don't ask - don't tell' brings to the DOD's on-going list of 'taskers'.*

And so it goes...

I just want to know if whoever formed the circle asked the rocks for their permission to be moved first. Very impolite, otherwise.

Perhaps an on-campus YMCA?
