    I get it, you walked in a store or opened a catalog and it said "messenger bag" I do the same thing and it says "purse", I think Tirk is just stating the obvious, you are carrying a purse marketed for a man=murse.......and that is not acceptable. You tell me which is the purse and which is messenger bag, regardless if you are right, you can't deny the similarities.

    i dont know the difference between them all. I just know fanny packs are homo and any extension of that for a man cannot be good. But being martin is now a world traveler running in all kinds of marathons, these euro bags are accepted much like homosexuality. so he should be ok.

    However, this is one of the few times where having more pride than sense would be a good thing.

    What could you possibly need to get out of a purse while riding a bicycle that is so important that you can't stop to get it out of a backpack. Carry your cell phone and/or ipod in your pants pocket or if it's chilly a jacket pocket. Stop being such a fancy boy.

    They are both purses if you carry them. They are both purses if martin carries them. It's only acceptable for a man to carry such a bag if he is a mailman.

    Hmm. You guys aren't paying attention. I don't have a car. I don't just carry a bag around all the time with a wallet and phone in it like those tiny purses I have to go buy groceries and such on my bike. My "murse" is a masculine monster. Haven't you southerners ever seen a bike messenger? They don't carry purses, they have huge sacks with important items in there

    I haven't run a marathon since 2013 I have been getting fat compliling the Guinness price index, which is an indicator of relative price differences around the world based on the cost of a pint of delicious Guinness.

    We cannot prevent any loss of American lives unless we take our dollies and go home and never fight again. One lost life from an SOF volunteer on a road to recuse hostages . . . I don't see that as a problem.

    Of course they can. They have been effectively separated all along. We have been fighting ISIS, not Assad. Period.

    The middle east has never been "good". We are not at war with Russia, by proxy or in any other way. We are political adversaries, but this is not a war with Russia. Russia is fighting anybody that opposes Assad in the Syrian Civil War. We are fighting ISIS and supporting anybody that fights them. Are you suggesting that we back off our support of rebel fighting ISIS just to appease the Russians? That's not going to happen.

    When was that time and what do you think should have been done? Spell it out.

    ISIS has lost a third of the land they once occupied. They are getting pounded by air, their logistics are a shambles, their economy is a shambles and they have not one ally in the world. Now they are at war with the USA and Russia and all of their neighbors. They are absolutely contained and being degraded. Americans have been involved here all along. This is not the first special ops mission that we have staged against ISIS. You would be the first to complain if we just pulled out and let ISIS get back to trying to expand into the rest of the Middle East.

    You should pay better attention to the war. The kurds have fought hard all along and beaten back ISIS in Kurdistan. The Syrian rebels have been holding the line against them for a couple of years with only CIA support from us. They are fighting. Even the motly Iraqi Army has shed it political commanders and is making progress against ISIS. We absolutely plan to kick them when they are down. This is not the time to chicken out. This ISIS war is not being played like the Iraq War and Afghanistan. It is being played a lot smarter by us.

    SO WHAT? You're always in line against Obama! So the fuck what? What's the difference?

    I'm not even discussing Obama here. I am discussing America foreign policy and geopolitical reality in the middle east. I laid out my reasoning in detail and you and the rest of the goose-steppers don't even try to address it! Y'all just cry that I'm always for Obama and Obama is behind this and I just repeat what Obama says and Obama sucks. No argument on the issues at all! You just try to make it all about me because you won't debate me. Or can't.

    You've lost the argument by abdication and look really lame doing it. VBall will take me on, at least. We'll have a debate. But your little right-wing ideologue friends just like to go "nyah, nyah, you have Obama cooties!"

    Lame, sister. Lame.
