Because people wearing a seatbelt don't get ejected through the window, is my guess.

As contradictions go, the above is absolutely world class. The article wasn't posted to "see input from others to try to help make sense of it", because it is about an act that doesn't and can't ever, under any circumstances imaginable make sense to rational people. Sharing such a story is a...

Phil's post explains well why I've always referred to the QC as a babysitter, and resent the implication that we can't be trusted without being watched every minute. It's the mentality that penalizes the many for the misdeeds of the [very] few that causes the staggering number of regulations we...

So when a group of militant religious fanatics bomb an abortion clinic, that's an act of war too? :confused:

One of Paul's strongest points IMO is his refusal to go along with popular misconceptions - he understands that acts of terrorism aren't war, which makes me think he also understands that much of what is labeled 'terrorism' [under federal law] isn't anything of the sort either. People don't seem...

With no possible way to verify the truthfulness of one's reply to the question [guns at home in US], I'd say they're just running an attitude check. Be polite, even if you're lying, no problems.

Leo: I made the same suggestion to Panther years ago, [tired of being awakened after an hour of sleep for a chirpy 'safety' msg, like: "Weekends are a great time to do preventive maintenance!" ] and clearly nothing changed - maybe if enough drivers chime in, they'll pay attention now. The...

Oh no - how awful to hear of such a senseless death. I'm pretty sure the driver was with Whirlwind, as Skyraider sent a pm yesterday asking if I knew anything about a fatal accident. I didn't, and wish I didn't still. :(

Nappie here too, lol. Muffins turned out better than trying to add music to my mp3 player, sigh. [I got lotsa audiobooks, but it's the first time I've tried putting music on it.] I won't be at DRS in the morning [please tell them Dennis is in my thoughts], going to Alabama - hooray for sunshine...

Wait a minute - how can we say some people are not adults in any way [voting, alcohol, sex, marriage] except legal culpability? There's a very good reason why they can't expect the rights of an adult: their development is incomplete, and they haven't gained the knowledge, experience, and...

The pros to team driving are easy: more money, companionship, help on getting the work done, two heads to work on a problem [or look for errors or alternate ideas] vs just one. The cons are more potential for conflict [one wants to go home, the other doesn't, one is a worker, the other a...

I got it measured at Diesel Repair, it's 13'1" [happy, OVM?] and now that I know, I think it was safer to think it was 2" higher, lol. Much smarter to have a close idea of the height and be constantly aware of the risks, than to know the exact height and forget to watch for the risks. [Don't...

Found this at Best Buy. It had me at 'cupcakes in 10 minutes' lol, but it makes pretty good muffins, too. [Currently making banana pecan muffins, and golden cupcakes with Bailey's Irish Cream flavored {coffee creamer, nonalcoholic!} icing] With a can of plain white decorating icing & various...
