You look like one of those moslems who covers their face and straps a bomb to their back, destroying whatever's around. A Kamachazi, that's what it is.

Kamikazi's were Japanese and they were giving their lives for the nation of Japan during the second world war by crashing their planes (and submarines) into american ships and bases.

What you say is a muslim (I prefer to call those who do that a terrorist, not a muslim) does is not defined as being a kamikazi.

Hopefully that will be the university I'll go to anyway the huskies are in the NCAA tourny and you got to support your team especailly after wachting them beat up on Pacific in Boise (Before the game and after I"d never seen Boise that packed).

Mine is a picture of the Snowpine Double at Holiday Valley(i know 750' vertical), but there was a small avalanche underneath that day. An avalanche isn't something you see everyday at eastern resorts.
