  2. Fill up the tank, empty bladder before crossing into enemy territory. Drive the speed limit, don't stop for any reason, and pray for safe passage.
  3. I would like to see DMX get his arse whipped mostly because of the dog fighting. In reality, I think Georgie Porgie is gonna get creamed.
  4. Not just any SEC program, THE SEC program. Hold on tight fellers, it's gonna be a bumpy ride down.
  5. http://legiscan.com/TN/bill/HB1885/2013     As introduced, specifies that the Class C misdemeanor offense of carrying a firearm, knife or club with intent to go armed is committed only if the person carrying the firearm, knife or club is prohibited by law from purchasing, owning or possessing a weapon. - Amends TCA Title 39, Chapter 17, Part 13.
  6. Legalization and the creation of a stable market that provides a predictable product would go a long way towards reducing the number of negative health side effects, let alone the overdoses and deaths.
  7. Somebody isn't wasting any time.

  10. David Codrea asks did they break Florida law in search of their story?   Linky
  11.   The crew members have spoken out and agree with your impression of things.   http://nypost.com/2013/10/13/crew-members-deny-captain-phillips-heroism/
  12. Or "The TSA knows they are worthless".        
  13. My first thought when I saw this story was, "Again?"
  14.   I really like the 36" CRB. That's now on my short list of purchases to make. Thanks for the link.   http://www.sneakybags.com/store/Covert_Rifle_Bags/CRB_Covert_Rifle_Bags_Medium
  15. Keep the dickholes off my rifle.
  16. Time to update the resume!
  17.   1)I will grant you this. There are loads of reasons for an officer to be accelerating quickly behind someone. The real question is, are the reasons legitimate. Sometimes they are, sometimes they aren't. 2) This is a good rule of thumb regardless of whether the person riding your ass in an unsafe manner is a cop or not. 3) Agreed. This is unsafe for everyone involved, including folks in the other lanes. 4) Are you ####ing kidding me!?!?!?!? IF (I'm really trying to grant you the opportunity to walk back from this one) this is a serious response and you would even consider engaging in this sort of jackbootery because you got brake checked for driving like an asshole, you shouldn't be allowed to have any more authority than telling kids not to cut in the lunch line.    If an officer has a legitimate reason for exceeding the speed limit and needs another vehicle to get out of the way because they are responding to an urgent call then it is incumbent upon the officer to signal the other driver to move out of the way (I think there are flashing lights and/or sirens available which may be used for this purpose) otherwise the officer isn't entitled to drive like a douchebag just because he is in a special car. Badges don't make make jerks special, they just make them jerks with badges.   5)Common sense, try acquiring some yourself.
  18. [quote name="Oh Shoot" post="1101659" timestamp="1390785141"]Wow. No state universities, crush land grant college concept, no federal grants for anything, no local tax money for schools. Pretty rad. Reckon everybody can just home school all the professions we need, from 1st grade though graduate school level? Or keep up even the status quo by parents paying out of pocket from age 6 on? You think the dumbing down of America is epidemic now, just wow. - OS[/quote] The dumbing down of America is because of the intrusion of the government into education, more precisely the intrusion of the federal government into the running of local school systems. Most things taught in schools today are of little to no positive value and are not retained by the child in a useful manner. I do believe that homeschooling is the preferable manner to instruct children and that where it is insufficient a market based approach is superior to government controlled monopolies. With regards to post secondary education at state schools, the citizenry are on the hook at both ends for the money given directly to the school by the state and also for the student loans that are subsidized by the taxpayers. Student loans that are a major factor in the rising cost of tuition as there is no incentive for the schools to remain competitive on price because the student can just borrow their way into debt slavery. No matter how purportedly noble the aims, theft is theft and this is theft.
  19. Gimmick until proven otherwise.
  20. [quote name="Oh Shoot" post="1101554" timestamp="1390773086"]Didn't "cut" anything overall. Just moved existing budget money around during a lean year to exclude UT, which was unprecedented. Then that became the standard % even after Lamar was gone, even when GOP got back in power in Nashville. That's Lamar's true legacy to TN education. - OS[/quote] Cry me a river. I do not support any public dollars for funding education so whether they spend the money they steal on education or welfare or whatever else they spend it on doesn't really matter to me. It is still filthy lucre from legalized plunder. I guess I am saying I couldn't care less if UT closed up shop tomorrow as it's only real function is to suck up tax dollars. Don't mistake this as any sort of statement of support for Alexander. He is a criminal and enemy of the people who would best serve the state of TN by dancing a hangman's jig.
  21. [quote name="Oh Shoot" post="1101528" timestamp="1390768338"]Anyone who cares about UT wouldn't think so -- and I don't mean frigging football. Appropriations were slashed because all he did his first year as Prez was run around the country stumping for GOP stuff, pissed off the Dem legislature in Nashville, so they punished our flagship university. Of course Lamar made sure that none of his favored bureaucrats in the system felt it. Hell, he didn't even live in Knoxville the first year, and the standing joke in the PR dept here was that they had to throw Honey off the moving truck in chains. At any rate, he only used UT as springboard to get the hell up to DC, which he did ironically as Sec of Education, and left UT in tatters due to inattention and malfeasance. - OS[/quote] So, what 6.8 said. I don't care what the reason is, anytime the .gov cuts funding for anything at all it is a win.
