  1. Ah so hypocrisy is OK when you do it - gotcha. (You have to admit - you set yourself up nicely there.) Never try to eat more than you can lift
  2. OK that makes me feel old. I learnt to develop and "enhance" (dodge and burn) my own shots in a B+W darkroom - I'm only 37 so color photography and 1 hr processing were the norm, but it was a lot of fun and taught me even more. I am however nowhere near as Never try to eat more than you can lift
  3. Did you think of that response all by yourself or did you need help? oops - think I hit a nerve Then you would be wrong again. Rote responses are laughable because they show a lack of creativity. Here, does this help? http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=2144091;search_string=pot%20meet%20kettle;#2144091 Tarred by your own brush. Thats gotta hurt.

  8. He was able to get elected twice because the competition came across as middle aged rich white bigots. The thing about an election is, if you want to win, you need a stronger candidate, and a policy portfolio that is better than "Vote for us because the other guy is rubbish" The GOP had neither.

  13. Sure. I have a civil defence plan (what it's called in NZ) and supplies. Do I spend a LOT of time worrying about it? No. Its a cost vs benefit equation, same as anything else in life. You prioritise the important and more likely things and focus on them first. For example, I am more concerned about high blood pressure (given my family background) than I am about being cut off from civilisation for an extended period of time - so a lot more thought, time and expense goes into my health and wellbeing than digging bunkers and buying generators. My assessment of the risk of civil breakdown is that the chances are so low that the level of preparedness I have is enough. There is always the chance that I am wrong - but that is the case regardless of how prepared you are. You cannot cover every eventuality, so focus on those that you feel are more likely.

  14. You clearly don't understand anything you read. a. Not left wing. In the countries where I can vote, probably actually described as the opposite. b. Not what i believe at all. However, please continue your ignorance. it gives me a good laugh. That's normally what someone with no response has to say. Thanks for the confirmation. Keep digging Never try to eat more than you can lift
  15. Am I ever happy I can live in a great city where I don't have to live in constant fear of loonies with guns. Makes you wonder what freedom truly is. Me too. Now earthquakes on the other hand are proving to be somewhat of a nuisance. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  16. I never suggested otherwise. Note the use of the word "and" in my post. Never try to eat more than you can lift
  17. I wonder how many "pro-gun" posters would still own guns after their 10 year old shoots their 8 year old by accident. It's all fun and games hypotheticals until it happens to YOU! It wouldnt happen to any of them - they of course are all top 1% shots and responsible law abiding citizens with perfect safety practices. Never try to eat more than you can lift

  21. Kerry, and others, shorted his LM stock right before he opened his mouth too. It's all about the money, personal stocks and insider trading. Take another look at the source. Never try to eat more than you can lift
