  1. Well, I was going to comment about the repost, but I don't recall a one-liner this good the first time around. it is a repost but that is fine with me Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.
  2. if you have a cable box that may be the issue, mine was doing the same thing, call the cable company and they can check it remotely and "fix" it Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.
  3. Oh, I know that DZ. I think it also charges an extra $5 if your reserve pilot chute has a spring in it. all of our tandems wear altimeters - always have - at least as for back as I can remember, and we don't charge extra
  4. One day I was swimmin' cross turtle creek, those snappers was all around my feets. Sure was hard swimmin' cross dat creek, cause I was holdin' my Ding-a-Ling-a-Ling. My Ding-a-Ling, my Ding-a-Ling, sure like holdin' my Ding-a-Ling. no assembly or batteries required Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  5. Efferent (motor) somatic supply is not significant in the vaginal wall since there is no striated muscle, but efferent supply largely from the pudendal nerve controls the levator muscles that provide support, and influence function of the lower third of the vagina. When you work on your kegels, you are working on the levator ani group, not specifically the vaginal vault. the only part that is understandable is "vault" cause that is where the treasure is hidden Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  6. I've been following this very closely and have finally determined the cause of all the confusion. Mark is from what we call the "Lowcountry" and anyone that has been there knows that the accents can be difficult to understand. So when his aides thought he said, "I am hiking the Appalachain Trail", what he really said was, "I am getting some Argentinean tail." Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  7. ...alcohol and drugs may have been involved... duh Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.
  8. Totally disagree. IMO it addds another layer of safety. Our students are given an altimeter, access to a ripcord and told when to use it. If they would, in fact, follow those instructions is another question. But at least the opportunity is there. Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  9. CitiBank Shell Mastercard - no annual fee - 5% cash discount on Shell gas - 1% cash discount on all other purchases - interest rate is irrelevant, pay it each month - use credit cards for convenience not for a "loan" - cash savings with this card far exceed any benefit possible from airline miles programs Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  10. should be part of the solution but not THE solution in SC we would have to build a wind farm the entire length of the coast, 3 miles deep to supply wind power equivalent to the 2 nuclear plants that are presently being permitted that ignores certain issues like capacity factor, economics and available transmission Capacity Factor: Nuclear 90+%, Wind 22% Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  11. this concept is called pump storage, it is used in some places, it works if: - the basin downstream of the dam has sufficient capacity to hold the water - there are no issues with fish and other critters - there are no mandatory flow rates - there are no downstream users that rely on water levels - etc. - there are not too many locations that are suitable unfortunately all the tree huggers, fish lovers, fishermen, industry, kayakers, water plants, etc. all have their "needs" and they all want them met, it is hard to have that many goals and meet them all successfully of course - nothing is impossible if you throw enough money at it Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  12. while eveyone else is stocking up on 9mm and .380, I've been stocking up on carbon credits, enough to cover my SUV, boat and jet skis till I die Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.
  13. great documentary about Elton and Bernie on tonite Goodbye Norma Jean, Rocket Man and all the other great tunes are being played almost impossible to believe: it took him less than an hour to write the music for each song after Bernie wrote the words Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  14. I gotta dig his wife. She wasn't standing next to him. She's basically said he can go to hell. His career isn't her problem. Their kids are her priority. I'm diggin that chick. Easy for her to say, she's independently wealthy, more so than he is. Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.
  15. semi-auto is a poor choice, too many things that can go wrong with gun, misfeed, jam, etc. pump will almost never fail, can easily clear a misfeed or jam Rem 870, 18" barrel, loaded with #4, this has more pellets and is only slightly smaller than 00 Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  16. agreed, those that want him to resign are doing it for political reasons, they are junior pawns doing the bidding for others were all just glad it was with a women, that he wasn't related to, that was older than 18 and didn't work for him Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.
  17. Agreed. My guess is that he won't resign. The Party will ask him to stay. Why? Because the Lt Governor is a young punk idiot. He is tolerated but has no power. The real power brokers are lining up either themselves or their buddy for the governor seat in 2010. Their best play is for Sanford to stay in office.

  18. synchronizing are always interesting . . . Yep. Gone are the days of the three light bulbs and the big switch. HVDC transmission will make this _much_ easier. lol - we don't got no stickin' bulbs we still have the big dial that spins, forward and reverse, the speed and direction depend upon the proximity to the apogee of the sine wave bump the sync lever a few times to slow it down, bump it again - slower still, slower, then get ready as the needle slowly swings upward ---- at top dead center quickly push the big button and lock on, now were making MWs Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  19. now we know why he didn't want to accept Obama's stimulus package he had his own stimulus package and it included foreign aid Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.
  20. fundamentally agree with your comments but the devil is the details my comments were referring to: electrical engineering: the grid was originally designed for safety and reliability, thus the design and coordination of devices for those purposes - breakers, relays, fuses, etc., if electrocution, more outages and longer outages are not an issue then there is no problem, eliminate the downstream system devices and just have a multi-shot breaker rated to protect the line from melt down economics: the traditional rate-making model creates rates for customers of similar characteristics, rates are averages and in theory they allow for each customer to contribute their fair share to the overall cost, when a customer is allowed to connect to the grid but does not buy kWh then that customer "under contributes" to the cost and is subsidized by other customers, as long as there are only a few of these no big deal all issues can be overcome with technology and money, it is possible to install enough sensors, switches and other control devices to manage any technical challenge, the issue is who pays for it, seems reasonable that the customer that creates the problem pays for the solution in SC residential rates are ~ $0.10 and large commercial/industrial customer pay an average of ~ $0.06, its hard to make an economic case with low rates, no worries the government is working to fix the problem with carbon tax and an energy bill islanding is being done, the real challenge is when they return to the grid, managing voltage, frequency and synchronizing are always interesting, when large areas/loads are in the dark and being re-energized this can be real tricky, that is one of the major reasons why it took a while to recover from the NE blackout Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  22. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he can't run for re-election in 2010 due to term limits, correct? And his Presidential shot is pretty much down the tubes. He's already resigned his slot as Chairman of the RGA, I'd bet that's all we're going to see from him as far as resignations go. He'll just ride out the rest of his time as Governor and then go do whatever. correct, he can't run again the politicians seem to be accepting his apology, acting nice, wishing him well that he can heal his marriage and finish his term as a good leader, so he will probably remain governor Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.

  23. huge REI store downtown Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.
  24. Now he disappears into the backwoods for a few days. Who knows what he was up to? ------------- We'll I guess we all know now what was really going on. What a surprise, out of character. I've eaten my share of crow this afternoon. It will be interesting to see how this unfolds. Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together.
