Everyone's entitled to their opinions and beliefs. Falwell, sure had his! I never saw a person so mis-guided or put his foot in his mouth as much as he did. Chuck

He was not initially charged. Remember, there was a lot of uproar about how long he could be held without being charged. The "dirty bomb" part was an allegation. It is disappointing to see its absence now that the trial is starting. ______________________________________ Now, that you jog my memory... yes, I do remember. I agree with you, about it being disappointing. Chuck

Of all the pages in the indictment, not one mention of 'dirty bomb'... and that is what he was originally charged with! That's nuts! Chuck

Correction, it stood for "Immigration and Naturalization Service". It's now subsumed into the Department of Homeland Security with a slew of other agencies. ... edit to say it may have been split since it was absorbed; there is the CIS and the ICE they seem to be different arms of the DHS.... ___________________________________ You're right. I knew better! It used to be (years ago) a part of the Dept. of Justice. Chuck

_______________________________ INS = Immigration and Nationality Service. Whatever you call it, the government won't let them do their 'job'. If, the Border Patrol was allowed to do their job and raid businesses, they'd quit hiring 'illegals'. Since 'big business' has their way with the government, it ain't gonna happen. Chuck

The women wrestlers today are more like models or porn stars. I want to puke every time they try to wrestle. But you think about The Fabulous Moolah's 22 year reign as Women's World Champion in the 70's and 80's, you can't help but marvel at how long that really is. Nobody can hold a title much longer than a year anymore. _________________________________________ I don't even bother watching wrestling any more. It just ain't the same. Chuck

_____________________________ Ah yes... 'Looking Through the Past Darkly' at the 'Purple Haze'... them wuz the days!!! Chuck

Anyone remember 'Gorgeous George'? I always liked the women and 'midget' wrestlers. That, was good Saturday T.V. Chuck

____________________________________ I know what you mean. The 'new' stuff, just doesn't get my blood pumpin'. It jangles my nerves, more than anything. We're on the same wave-length... more testosterone and caffine! I don't gues that some Geritol would hurt any!? Chuck

_____________________________________ $3.19 per gal. here! I can remember, when I first started driving, gasoline was $0.24 a gal! Back then, with $20.00, I could fill-up, take a girl to a movie and dinner and have change! Is that what is meant by 'the good ol' days'? Chuck Damn... you're OLD!! I don't remember if anyone ever mentioned it on here, but if you want to make a difference in gas prices, STOP BUYING from Exxon/Mobil period. They're the largest oil company in the world. If they're not selling, they'll have to lower prices and the other companies should follow suit. Tell me whether you think this would work or not. I quit buying Exxon gas after the Exxon Valdez debacle. ______________________________________ Yes, I AM! Damned proud I've made it this long, too! I have only bought Exxon gas on rare occasions... like when they are the nearest station and I'm runnin' on fumes. I try to buy Chevron. I don't think that, not buying gas on a mass level on any given day will effect the gas producers. They know, we'll buy gas a day or so later. They know too, we will not give-up driving just because the price per gallon goes up. I just heard today on the news, businesses like Wally World and other businesses are losing money because folks are spending their money on gasoline and don't have enough to spare for other things. By God, the gas producers are gonna get their share! I think, between the gas and oil producers and the bought-off politicians... we're gettin' a big fat screwin'! Chuck

I'd try curling the tabs opposite to the way they are curved now, until they are flat. The stiffener material in those tabs are pretty flexible. Chuck

I think, it's a cop-out! If, parents are so concerned that their kid is going to start smoking, just to emulate some actor, the parent is falling-down on the job. Parents need to know, just what their kids are doing. I think, a kid is going to try more to be like one of his peers than some actor. Chuck

Is your finished pack job, flat and smooth across the top of the container when you are finished packing? I've seen where, 'bulky' 'rounded' looking pack jobs tend to form a gap between the flaps ant the tuck tabs will pop out. Is your main parachute within size guidelines for that container? Chuck

Rinse the affected area with cold, clean water. Let air dry... in the shade. Some sodas and colas have acid in them that can harm the material. I've seen canopies dis-colored from carbonated soft drinks. Your best bet is, get it to your rigger and discuss the matter with him. Chuck

So Chuck, are you offering to be in her next video? _________________________________ Well... I guess, I could. If, the money's right!!! Chuck

Too damned bad! I get tired of brainless twits like her who 'expect' everything given to them because of 'who' they are. Piss on her! She screwed-up... let her take her punishment like anyone else would have to. Chuck

________________________________ I'm gonna have to look at that picture again... I didn't soo any jacked-up bugs! Chuck

Hell, a pair of ironed Wranglers, a presed shirt and polish yer boots... you're good to go. Oh, by the way... wear your black hat... not the silverbelly. It's an evening show. Chuck

______________________________________ That's damned funny! Bought-off so and so... Chuck

_____________________________ Yes, He does! I can testify to that!!! Chuck

___________________________________ I can understand the whiskey but those hats ? Chuck

I get the jist of your post. Obviously others did not. Going to get ugly maybe _______________________________ I'm headin' for cover! Chuck

Yeah, obviously God is Catholic. _________________________________ We heard it here first! Chuck

Too much youth and too much money. Chuck
