  1. will do spooky. He talked highly of the Bird dogs. I am curious to see if he was involved in any of the ops Jim recounts in his book. You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  2. at least 1 of the Senator's has it right "People of all faiths deserve to be treated with respect and dignity in our state's Capitol while they exercise their rights in a peaceful manner," Ellis said in a statement to the Chronicle. "We felt the need to stand in solidarity with Texas Muslims in the face of virulent hate speech and bigotry." You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  3. How was the cruise? Family and I are booked for two weeks out of San Juan this July. Actually just booked the flights today. It was a great trip. I love to travel with Royal Caribbean. The water was beautiful down there. I had never been that far south and East before. Next time though we may look for 1 that has a sea day in the middle of the cruise. Hitting a new port everyday for 5 days can get tiring. I still made the most of my premium drink pass.
  4. the book was a great read. I spoke with my Uncle last week. He is retired USMC. He led a recon team in Vietnam. He says the "Bird dogs" saved his ass several times. truly heroes You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  5. My wife and I dressed for formal night on the cruise we just took. 15 family members from San Diego, Detroit, Raleigh, Fort Lauderdale and Orlando met in San Juan. Boarded the Jewel of the Seas the next day and hit St. Croix, St. Maarten, Antigua, Martinique and Barbados. What a great trip.
  6. that's what she said You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  7. Yep, just goes to show that police corruption is still alive and well, no matter what some might say. has as much to do with the police dept. as it does with the president "former suburban police chief" You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  8. that's priceless You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  9. just don't slap me on the Frappe hat when you're going out the door You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  10. We can agree that we disagree because you hold several contradictory opinions and yet refuse to critically evaluate your own argument. We can agree on the hypocrisy you've displayed by claiming that people who disagree with you must be trolling but when you disagree with them it's because you have an honest opinion. We can agree that the reason you've suddenly decided to move on is because you're starting to realise that you're on the wrong track but don't want to admit it. I KINDA get what he is saying. to make the rape analogy work the victim would have been told by the rapist "you keep dressing like that and I will rape you" and then she did and he did not saying I agree but I think that is what he is arguing here You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  11. You will be the one wearing pie You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  12. FIFY You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  13. The Citizen Advisory Committee in Orange County Florida died through lack of interest After demanding something be done for years the Sheriff set up a citizens panel. After having 1 meeting in 2014 it just sort of faded away. You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  14. bravo well done sir You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  15. The only attacks on media outlets in North America (that I can recall) in recent history were from Anthrax in letters mailed to them. So not sure what you are comparing to. Media outlets actively posting satirical cartoons regarding Islam. Media outlets continuing to do so after getting firebombed. Media outlets continuing to do so after being put on a hit list etc etc. got it sorry you are correct sir like this "His publication responded to efforts at intimidation by being even more irreverent or outrageous, defying the constraints of religious sensitivity or political correctness."

  18. "NAACP chapter president Henry Allen Jr. was “hesitant” on Tuesday to call the bomb a hate crime" from Wikipedia "hate crime (also known as bias-motivated crime) is a usually violent, prejudice motivated crime that occurs when a perpetrator targets a victim because of his or her perceived membership in a certain social group." whether this was done by a lone wack-a-nut or an organized group I would think it fits the definition You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  19. I didn't mention guns or gun owners. Apparently it's YOU who equates gun owners to those who resort to violence as a solution to life's problems. so the scared Floridian's standing there ground was in reference to what? never mind I will "deal with it" sir I reckon I ain't smart enough to figure out what the hell you meant by that Apparently. In the United States, stand-your-ground law states that an individual has no duty to retreat from any place they have lawful right to be and may use any level of force, including lethal, if they reasonably believe they face an imminent and immediate threat of serious bodily harm or death. Use of lethal force can be with a crossbow, an axe, a bare hand... You leaped to a conclusion based on your own insecurity. Not sure which of my insecurities you are referring to. But I am really trying to understand what SYG in Florida has to do with a terrorist attack in Paris. Honestly maybe I am missing something here. You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!

  21. this thread is about a terror attack in Paris not your family but hey let's not miss any opportunity to knock gun owners You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  22. a bit of a stretch to connect terrorists in Paris to George Zimmerman but I'm just a Florida redneck with a CWFL so what the hell do I know You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  23. so I have my pop up on Craigslist and a guys wants to trade 2 Mojo Evader 1000 electric scooters for it. i have been looking for something to pull behind the motor home to get around on. Anyone know anything about these particular scooters?? You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  24. this reminds me of something my Mother said. Deb and I were at their house a couple of days after our last anniversary. Deb was showing off her new jewelry. Mom asked what i had gotten. So I pulled out my new S&W Model 442 to show her. Her reaction "oh my god you are going to get mad at someone in traffic and shoot them". WTF how do you go from being prepared and watching your surroundings to being a maniac that is going to blast anything that looks wrong I just think you guys are taking a (admittedly dramatic) statement from someone and carrying it to a crazy extreme. eta: Rush's last statement "Oh Last I knew, this guy has yet to shoot anyone " You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
  25. I disagree. overly dramatic yes but being aware of your surroundings and the people around you is not paranoia. You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!
