  1. why is it always about race with you geez Wait...there was a PA on life-challenged, devine-deprived, Canine Americans? I missed that. Mods!!!!! When are you going to stop this insanity??? Wow, sir, that axe you're carrying looks a bit dull.... PA on dull axes! PA on dull axes! or sirs. I'm not sure which... I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  2. Yup. Limit contact to make sure those contact times are positive. Less is more. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  3. That does not logically follow. Companies have published policies. The health insurance provisisions are in writing. You can review these things before accepting employment. Religious beliefs need never come up. It's just a matter of whether you can live with the policies and the benefit package offered. Complaining that the company should offer you more because you want it and don't like the reason they don't offer it is silly. It effectively demands that the owners run their company according to your beliefs. It is the same evil they are being accused of, except they are not forcing anyone to do anything.

  4. You started out by subsuming the Republican Party within a larger group you labeled Right Wing Conservatives. That alone indicates you have made your mind up and don't need facts. But then you went further and demanded that someone provide you a solution without explaining that there was a problem. Illegal aliens were getting free healthcare. Anyone who reported to a County Hospital got free healthcare. Illegal aliens were getting Medicaid...free prescriptions, free doctor visits, etc. So, first we needed to identify and define a problem. The problem wasn't that people couldn't get healthcare. But you have now used health insurance and health care in one sentence as if they are synonymous. So maybe we need to start with a dictionary and define common terms? I'm sorry, but your question started out with non-sequiturs and reversals of logic. It then confused terms and demanded evidence of a better solution to an undefined problem. That's not much of an argument for ACA. I'm not necessarily against a universal health system. This one just doesn't seem to have been thought out, cooperatively imposed, wanted by the American People...a whole bunch of problems. Arguing that your opponents weren't working hard enough to give you what you want just doesn't justify all the mitsakes, lies, and wasted money. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  5. Too much opinion. Not enough fact. The way it was written, I'm not sure there was a reasonable expectation of severe physical injury that would justify lethal force. The article states that all Georgia requires is a much lesser standard for use of deadly force. I haven't researched that, but would be very surprised if the law was correctly stated. The way the article was written, I am not convinced the Sheriff declared this SYG or that there was a good shooting. Too much is left out. Arguing a conclusion without key facts is folly.

  6. While I don't really agree with the whole religion / birth control thing, I respect other people's opinions on it. I don't see the company as trying to control the employees. I think that is an attempt to reverse the situation. The company simply does not want to pay for something it does not agree with. That is not forcing their employees to do or believe anything. The OP here, wants to force the company to pay for something that does not comport with the owner's beliefs. That is completely wrong. The key is to look at who is being forced to do something. The OP wants to force the company to do something. The company doesn't want to force anyone to do anything. Which is trying to impose their beliefs on another?

  7. You think it was a hate crime? Was the tree knocked out? I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  8. I'm more like Lucky. I round it up to the nearest $10 unless that's too little. Then, I throw in another $5. I figure some people don't tip at all, so I make up the difference. If the weather is foul, the tip goes up. I can't think of pizza delivery without remembering a guy I stopped when I was a cop. Pizza guy. Shoulder rig with a chrome .44 mag Smith. All perfectly legal. I didn't give him a ticket for whatever he was pulled over for. Nice guy. Loaded for bear. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

  9. I keep going over this quote from the President. I don't have any context. But it seems to me that it is incomplete or useless. If I said, "We have accomplished as much or more than any other similar group in history" that would be quite a statement. However, he didn't say that. What he said was, "We have accomplished as much". Today, I have accomplished exactly as much as I have in my history. Tomorrow, I can say the same. So, is something missing from the statement (some measuring stick to compare to), or is the statement completely useless in that it says we have accomplished what we have accomplished? The phrase, "if not more" certainly makes it silly. How can you accomplish more than you have accomplished? Sounds to me like he was flying without a teleprompter again.

  10. Its not seeing that hand, he was looking for dead bodies after all, its when the hand squeezed back that probably made him soil his pants. Most dives in cold water, you kind of look forward to warming up your wetsuit the natural way. When my daughter was taking her certification class, she gave me a hard time about wearing a school wetsuit. I told her, "There are two kinds of wetsuit...'brand new' and 'been peed in'. I probably should have held off. I had to buy her a wetsuit. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

  11. To be fair, they tried to sub-contract the invasion to Mexico. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  12. PA on horse fuckers. When are the mods going to step in? I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  13. Is this a PA on Utopianists or fools? Considering the meaning of Utopia, I have to ponder this statement. It seems to mean, "You are either a fool or a fool". There may be something to that. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  14. Is this a PA on yellow, or escape slides? Looks to me like the President is conducting hip-pocket training with the Secret Service. Didn't really pay off, though. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  15. We fired our guns and the British kept a'comin. There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago. We fired once more and they began a'runnin'. Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

  17. Dammit Turtle! You owe NATO a new keyboard! I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  18. These headlines often catch my eye. They always make me wonder, "Is someone speaking out FOR it?". I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  19. 45mph, huh? I'm seeing what I think is a hood that is pointed 90 degrees off from what appears to be a pair of rims. Another rim is turned more than 90 degrees from the other pair. Of course, I have to kind of split the difference because that pair or rims isn't really facing exactly the same direction either. Ideally, all those parts would be more or less aligned on one heading If you ignore the massive fire damage, the metal parts seem to be in a configuration the manufacturer never anticipated. And that damage seems to have come after some of the inertia was dampened by jumping the curb...possibly sideways by the orientation.

  20. Back on topic... This way of thinking pre-dated the current President. This is one data point in a long history of data points. There are people who think they are owed something and their victims should remain victims. Nothing new. My only concern with this whole story is...the perp was hit five times and is still alive? WTF? No wonder the shooter wants to remain anonymous. So would I! I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  21. This is a PERFECT example of this President's passing of the buck and taking credit. Remember when the ACA was passed? Yeah - without a single GOP vote? Dontcha think that the President - instead of opposing equal rights as he did then - could have lobbied for a law repealing DOMA? He didn't. Neither did Congress. He and Congress let the Courts call DOMA Unconstitutional and then IMMRDIATELY repealed it when there was zero choice, anyway. DADT? Court called it Unconstitutional and struck it. Wow - then Congress and POTUS act and take credit for it. Other than the ACA and the Iraq withdrawal, what are some policy accomplishments that the Admin can actually legitimately take credit for? (Even the ACA was a legislative accomplishment - the President and his admin had little to do with it outside of marketing it and then signing it) I'm serious. What are some of the Administration's accomplishments? LGBT rights is probably the LAST thing to list because nothing happened until the Courts struck the applicable laws as unenforceable. Years of doing nothing while people suffered. But let's look at accomplishments. What has been accomplished? You lost me on the Iraq withdrawal. We got kicked out when we wanted to stay. I didn't count that as a 'win'. What did I miss? I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

  22. Flagellation of decesed equines is a local sport of great import. I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  23. Was that a PA on muppets???? Where are the mods?!? I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  24. Providing the very best care and maintenance to breasts should be the ultimate goal of any evolved society. Bravo! To be honest, I was hoping someone had combined the two ideas and designed a bra that came off at 300mph, but that might follow. lol I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
  25. Mixed emotions. NK is wrong. I appreciate the guy's service, but what was he thinking? I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.
