Here's a link to a former discussion on the subject. You don't say what color the paper is. Be carefule whatever you use doesn't harm the paper or discolor it. Btw, might be a good idea to make a copy of this document.

I'd take the paper to your local library. They might have something they use to remove pen marks from books. How do we know you're not trying to change the recipient on a check, or improve a test score?

I would keep IE around just because there are some things that need it. Do you run Adblock with Firefox?

Jack had worked in a pickle factory for a number of years when he came home one day to confess to his wife that he had a terrible compulsion to stick his penis into the pickle slicer. It was on his mind night and day. His wife suggested that he should see a therapist to talk about it, but Jack said he'd be too embarrassed. He vowed to overcome the compulsion on his own. One day a few weeks later, Jack came home absolutely ashen. His wife could see at once that something was seriously wrong. "What's wrong, Jack?" she asked. "Do you remember that I told you about my urge to put my penis into the pickle slicer?" "Oh, Jack, you didn't." "Yes, I did." "My God, Jack, what happened?" "I got fired." "No, Jack. I mean, what happened with the pickle slicer?" "Oh! She got fired, too."

Hey, MM14! We could use your sense of humor and stand-up timing over in the Official Jokes Section! Pretty funny stuff! Or did you think this was the Jokes section?

How Can George Bush Represent the People if.......
Phi for All replied to atinymonkey's topic in Politics
What a horrible way to wind down such a fantastic thread! No one asked you if we were off-topic atm; it was mentioned, which normally, with no other outside help, brings people back to the topic, or as close as we were after 10 pages. I noticed it was OK for the thread author to talk about individual rights a lot earlier on in the thread: All I was doing earlier was posting my opinions, appropriate to the line of the thread at that point. Posts in threads don't always adhere strictly to the exact questions first proposed. They'd stagnate pretty quickly if they did. They tend to germinate, they grow, they flower into discussions between people all over the world (and horrible botany metaphors--sorry). Your post about putting me Back. On. Topic. seemed like a personal attack, considering others in this thread have touched upon many subjects relevant but different from the original topic without you stepping in to correct them. You seem personally offended when someone explores a tangent to one of your ideas. I was going to PM you about this, but I wanted these statements, as well as my apology, to be made before the community. I always enjoy reading what you've written, atm, and I really do think this is one of the best threads in the Politics section. If I have taken your thread too far from its intended topic, if I have trivialized it by mentioning things like when to use caps as opposed to bold lettering or posted opinions that seemed too much like responses to other people's threads, if I have not meaningfully contributed to it in my 15 posts, then I am wholeheartedly sorry, and offer my apologies to the creator. And if you have a problem with me personally or with my style of posting, please PM me and we'll get it sorted out. I have often thought we share a love of humor which tempers and enhances our writing styles, but can come off rather sarcastic sometimes when posted. If that lies at the heart of this problem, if something I said in a different thread has you out of sorts with me, then I apologize for that as well. Life is too short to for you to spend your time annoyed at someone. -
No, I misstated that. Bullet A dropped, bullets B & C fired horizontally with differing powder charges. I see what you're saying, the extra powder will make bullet C go farther than B, but they'll hit the ground simultaneously. It does seem counter to logic, but damn it, blike/Gallileo, YOU'RE RIGHT! What if the tower you did this from were leaning....

I'm on Firefox 9.3 and I love it. It's got all these wonderful extensions that you can download like Adblock, Image Zoom, Single Window, that really customize your browsing. The window loads slightly slower but the time you save with security makes it more than worth it.

What year Caddy? Going to keep it black?

Disconnect the broadband cable from your coffin before you drive your hearse! And get the windows tinted so the sun won't burn your skin.

Oh yeah, those are great picks as well. I'm reading Jordan's New Spring right now, the prequel to the Wheel of Time series. Love those characters but I really hated the tenth in the series. SPOILER!!!! Why wasn't everyone happier that the taint was cleansed from saidin?

How Can George Bush Represent the People if.......
Phi for All replied to atinymonkey's topic in Politics
The point isn't individual posts, but the right of one individual to dictate what can be posted in his thread. Even after 10 pages and 180 posts. -
Ooooooh, ammo for Gir Stand-up. "What did you learn?" "I saw a NavajoEverclear! He was doin' like this!"

Anytime. He's not the most technical SF writer, but he's always a quick and fun read. Read those 3 and then read the first three Foundation. Good stuff.

Sounds cool, pulkit. What make of car and what city are you in?

You didn't really put it in the Ohio, did ya? I was only joking....

2000 Ford Ranger 4x4 (small pickup), 1997 Honda Civic LX (love this car!). Need two vehicles since my wife and I both work. We're too rural for the bus lines or I'd sell one of them. I'm like YT, get me where I want to go, I don't need the flash.

How Can George Bush Represent the People if.......
Phi for All replied to atinymonkey's topic in Politics
Vraiment! Verus! Yes and no. IMO you are asking just the right amount of questions. And you do it in such a way that everyone can see you are interested in feedback from others, showing that your mind is not closed. I'm not saying you're getting the right answers from me, but I appreciate the opportunity to spout off. Not at all. I think this distinction between what constitutes someone who is merely annoying or different and who is a danger to society and deserves legislation is one that the Bush administration fails to see. How can George Bush represent the people if he can't understand that there is nothing that harms or diminishes heterosexuals in any way to recognize that homosexuals have the same rights and deserve the same respect that hets do? -
In 3D, it's a little turtle anus, clear as day. Come on, I'm not gonna feed you straight lines all day, you know.
