The thing, though, is that if you're talking to God, wouldn't he be a lot more accurate?

If anyone else was making this crap up, they'd be sent to the loony bin. But people actually believe this psycho, and what's worse, they keep giving him money. For about 20 years, my uncle used to take care of this elderly woman whose husband died a long time before and didn't have any children or living relatives, and she put in her will to give him her inheritance (which was quite a bit, almost 90K), but when she died, we found out that she had changed the will a few weeks before and had given all the money to Pat Robertson and the 700 Club! All my uncle got was a toaster oven. :blink:

What?!? The floods that hit New England last year were nowhere near a tsunami! They lasted a little less than 2 weeks! I don't consider that major when compared to the hurricanes that hit Florida and the Gulf Coast a few years ago.

What a tool. He'll be vindicated if something does happen -- you know, like those turds who ran around saying that 9/11 was "God's attack on gays and liberals" because, dontcha know, NYC is filled with 'em. :angry:

And if there IS no attack on the US, his words will be forgotten because by this time next year, people will be nursing a hangover from New Year's Eve. So it's a win-win situation for him to stir up fear among his followers. Loon.

David Letterman is talking about him now. :lol:

First of all....Pat Robertson gives Southern Baptist's a bad name. As a Southern Baptist myself, I don't believe in most of his teachings.

In recent years, Robertson has become a very controversial figure. On August 22, 2005 he said that the USA should kill Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez. And on November 10, 2005 he told the citizens of Dover, Pennsylvania on the The 700 Club that since they had voted out of office all seven members of the school board who supported intelligent design, that God would NOT help them if they ever had a disaster in their area. Those are only two in a long list of controversy surrounding the man.

    • You’d think he would’ve learned after the way Sprina took off.  I hope we get a proper Emma/Gio/Trina/Kai quad, as friends, romantic rivals, etc. In the few scenes that the four of them have had together, I felt like there was a natural chemistry between all of them, similar to the way that Cam/Spencer/Trina/Joss was, in the beginning.  And, it would be a lot better than all this stuff with Kai’s surgery. 
    • Hooray we made the exact same critique to Londonscribe!!!!!
    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
