  1. Why should the FAA shut down this or any DZ if a skydiver makes a mistake? Why should a DZ have to shut down if a skydiver makes a mistake? And why can't you see that Mr. Dause clearly only made a small error in sentence structure in that quote? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  2. I'm not sure why you capitalized "Progressive Liberal". It's as though you are trying to Demonize two of the best human traits in Western Society. Ultimately O'Reilly was fired because of his poor behavior and total lack of respect for his co-workers. Including inappropriate sexual harassment of women. Which he got away with for years because of his ratings. He ended up being more of a liability than an asset. That is not a "Liberal" calculation.

  3. See... I told ya so. I told you so first. Hey! I told him in post #4! You straightened him out in #9. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  4. Probably also not possible without the subsidized land clearing called "mountaintop removal". Let's level more of the Appalachians! Maybe Trump can get the Chinese to buy the coal. Win-win. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

  6. James Hansen did not say that. It's just a claim by someone who has no business making it. It appears hyperbolic idiocy is not the exclusive province of the denier sites. Here is a link to what he does say. http://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/ Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  7. Wherever he goes, his audience will be much smaller. That's the extent of his "punishment". Maybe he can get on with that online garbage site that Bannon used to run. They probably know how to keep their women in their proper places. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  8. The ones I have seen are great. If you don't mind poor image quality and shoddy construction that is. Why do you think they are so cheap? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  9. Hopefully he knows the difference between the two. He won't be bombing Seoul. Bad for business. http://www.trump.com/real-estate-portfolio/seoul/trump-world/ Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  10. One of my best friends was raised in a very religious Mennonite family. He still believes sort of, but he has given up on measuring up to the standard. He seems to have decided to just accept that he is going to spend eternity in hell, along with all his friends! Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms.

  11. I live in Manitoba. The Mennonite Central University is very near me. But we don't have Yoders here. We have Weibes and Freisens, and Penners, and a bunch of others. There are even dry towns nearby! Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  12. The latest escalation in the war over seats. http://dailybonnet.com/mennonite-man-violently-tossed-airplane-midflight/ Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  13. Perfectly fixable, pull out your knife and cut right brake line. Land on rears. (But I would have cut away too) Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  14. Since turnout was only 55.6%, less than 28% of American adults voted for either one. The rest of you got exactly what you deserve for being too lazy to vote. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  15. A new solution popped up on my FB feed this AM. Priceless: http://themanatee.net/airlines-begin-compensating-passengers-who-are-willing-to-exit-mid-flight/ Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  16. If there is one country in the world with as less stable and more narcissistic leader than the USA, it's North Korea. It's not hard to imagine the two of them in a pissing contest. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  17. I will not ever drive team for that very reason. Plus the fact that the truck is too small to share with anyone you are not having sex with... Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  18. Trump only lies when his mouth is open. That's because he is only semi-literate and therefore can not lie in writing. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  19. I've heard it said they are pretty much the same job. I limit the damage to my personal life by working an arrangement called truck share. I'm partnered with another driver. We each work one week on then one week off, starting on a Sunday morning. I'm often finished by Friday night and looking forward to eight days off. (for rigging and jumping, depending on the season) The company is happy because the truck is always moving. I always know who is driving it while I'm off, so I don't have to worry what condition it will be in when I come to work. I know it will be clean and fueled and ready to go. Just like I leave it. And it's still considered a full time job, so I get full benefits. And dispatch needs to get me home on time. No excuses, they have to get it back for my partner to start his week. And dry van only. No reefers and no decks. Every single deck driver I know has a story about being injured from falling off the trailer while tarping a load. I'm 60 in a couple months. I don't need that shit.

  20. Best description of the job I've heard----Hours and hours of sheer boredom, punctuated by fleeting instances of sheer terror. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  21. So what? Your customer is not asking you to jump it. He's asking you to pack it. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  22. There is no imaginary friend but my imaginary friend. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  23. It's just proves the zombie religion is true. The zombie ate their brains so they can't think for themselves. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  24. It would have been very foolish not to inform the Russians under the circumstances. Actually, more than just foolish, dangerous. Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
  25. Nevermind all this bullshit about the law and the rights of the damned airline. This is bullshit plain and simple. What part of "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it" don't you understand? Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
