    African Football League, enjoy the monkeyshines!

    TV networks refuse to show angry crowds protesting the protesters. Why didn't TV networks show angry, booing NFL fans Sunday or Monday?

    African Football League, enjoy the monkeyshines!

    They're taking a knee to protest white cops shooting black people. Below are two of Chicago PD's finest posing with a local Chicago activist. The department forbids police officers from making political statements while in uniform and/or on duty.Two of the three people in the photograph are...

    Click "Load more comments" about 4 times. It's posted by a Mrs Leroy Goldberg. I have my doubts if that's his or her real name, tho.

    African Football League, enjoy the monkeyshines!

    As my official opinion as an Administrator, I think it certainly has a whiff of racism. But it's not racist in and of itself, any more than is a banana peel in a tree. I recognize that everyone is a little bit racist, even those who say they aren't. Maybe even especially those who say they...

    African Football League, enjoy the monkeyshines!

    Maybe a "little" uncalled for. I'm not sure about "totally" uncalled for. The NFL is, after all, comprised of 70% African-Americans (their term, not mine). Is it racist, or an observation? I dunno. "Blacks are 10% of the population, yet 90% of the FInal Four." Is that a racist statement? Or an...

    Stand or Kneel ? Unmoderated

    I still am. Not to mention 35 USC §301. National anthem: U.S.C. Title 36 - PATRIOTIC AND NATIONAL OBSERVANCES, CEREMONIES, ANDORGANIZATIONS Protesting racial injustice (or whatever it is they think they're protesting - many don't even know) by protesting during the National Anthem makes exactly...

    refill DEF speed limited in 196 miles

    As an expediter, urea is always on my mind.

    refill DEF speed limited in 196 miles

    Ah, gotcha. With DEF, the term "crystallized" means ice crystals. When the water evaporates and you're left with nothing but the urea crystals, like rock candy or sea salt, that's certainly crystallized, too, in my book.

    The Trump Card...

    On Sept 24 of this year (yesterday morning), Trump Tweeted: "NFL attendance and ratings are WAY DOWN. Boring games yes, but many stay away because they love our country. League should back U.S." He also Tweeted: "If NFL fans refuse to go to games until players stop disrespecting our Flag &...

    refill DEF speed limited in 196 miles

    It shouldn't crystallize at temperatures above 12° F. As for the wonky display, I guess a bad sensor, especially since it's not counting down.

    All NFL Teams 2017 - 2018

    They certainly did a lot better than I thought they would. I was expecting a total blowout. Especially with the replacement of the Offensive Coordinator this week. A couple of missed opportunities and a missed field goal hurt, and they just kind of lost their way in the second half, but all...

    All NFL Teams 2017 - 2018

    As a true Bengals fan, I knew, absolutely, that when the Bengals were up 21-7 at the half that the Packers would win. And they did, 24-21 in OT.

    The Trump Card...

    Of course it did. My comment didn't create any shades of context, it was the actual context of the legal term from which this country operates. You created the new context of "well, most people don't really understand what treason means in this country, and even though you're right, you're wrong...

    The Trump Card...

    Not really, not about such a well defined term as "treason." US Code 2381 defines treason quite clearly, as does the US Constitution. And in order to qualify as an "enemy" they must to be someone we are at war with. It's not a question of "you're either with us or you're against us," or "you're...

    The word "treason" in the title tells you right up front that it's not.

    Any Company Sponsored CDL for Straight Trucks?

    First, drivers make a lot less than you think. Second, in expediting, whether you own the truck or drive for a fleet owner, you're independent contractors not employees, so your are literally running a small business. Third, unless you really want to, you don't need to go to school to learn how...

    A Wi-Fi router works on microwaves, and you can use them to spy on people in a room or in a building, even if you don't have direct access to the router.

    It's a Team's Life Bass Pro Shop – Memphis, TN

    This is just a shot I found on the Internet, but it shows pretty well what I remember. The ceiling was all lighting rafters, but I don't recall for sure if it was open all the way to the pyramid point. You never got the sense from the inside that it was a pyramid, though. That scoreboard raises...
