    Two Ferguson, MO Policemen Ambushed: Anyone Surprised?

    Yeah, and that's on top of the systemic real, actual racial discrimination and brutality of the Ferguson police force, city council, and municipal court system.

    GasPods

    GasPods have not been treated kindly by the hypermiler and modder forums, particularly in the threads where the GasPod people participated and staunchly defended their anecdotal evidence and the computer simulated wind tunnel results (they've yet to put a vehicle with GasPods in an actual wind...

    What to do with those roof mounts?

    The Tailgater, VuCube and a couple other satellite TV antennas mount perfectly to it.

    Israeli vs US leadership

    "A petition on the White House website to arrest the 47 Senators has gathered over 136,000 signatures, in an apparent attempt of the ignorant to publicly self-identify." It's funny because it's true. :D

    Evil has a face - ok, two of them

    When you have to trot out anecdotal evidence and present it as being the rule rather than the exception to bolster what is already alleged to be "apparent," then it ain't all that apparent. On top of that, when you've got Muttly accurately making my point, you know your position is a weak and...

    Fox News most trusted.

    If you click through and read the actual poll numbers, you see that Fox News comes in first only with those who trust "a great deal," but when "a great deal" is combined with "somewhat" then Fox News at 55% is trusted overall less than ABC, NBC, CBS, and CNN, all of whom are in the 60s. So...

    Evil has a face - ok, two of them

    I think someone needs to look up the demographics of the four Kentucky counties which carried Obama, taking a close look at Elliott County in particular, and see what then becomes "apparent."

    School police not allowed guns

    It's really not a problem. The kids have Pop-Tarts.

    Welcome to March, and have you ever noticed

    Imagine, if you will, a snail on a leash, being walked around the block, by a turtle. Initially it was set for three sessions a week for three weeks. That would have put this past Friday at number nine, but the therapist was sick one day and two weeks ago the snow and the sub-zero temps shut...

    Another day, another physical therapy season. Just shoot me.

    Hello March, where ya at

    Alaska, Oregon, Montana, New Hampshire and Delaware all have no sales tax. I've bought tires twice in Delaware for that very reason.

    Daylight saving time

    ... considering it's a "placement piece" for the sleep medicine industry. [emoji1]

    Politicly correct?

    California doesn't have "road construction" or "road work," they have "road rehabilitation".

    Kentucky Wildcats - 2015 baby!

    Murray State woke up Sunday morning on Thanksgiving after their third consecutive loss (and their second loss in 2 days) to find themselves deep in a hole with a record of 2-4 with another game staring them in the face that afternoon. They won that afternoon, and have won every game since. They...

    Kentucky Wildcats - 2015 baby!

    This week's national AP rankings: #1 Kentucky #16 Louisville #25 Murray State University! We can't plow snow off an Interstate, but by golly we can play basketball.

    Would this apply to a Catholic nun?

    "Separation of church and state" is also the legal talking point the Supreme Court used to keep church and state separate. Religion's obsession with headgear:

    Mississippi allows NON CDL to drive church buses.."Jesus takes the wheel act"

    You really think under 25 is OK but a 26 passenger bus is inherently more of a problem? Don't fixate on the number 25. It was chosen at random to mean "less than a full size bus." I don't think there's a whole lot of difference between 30 and 35 miles, either. The key word you're missing is...

    Mississippi allows NON CDL to drive church buses.."Jesus takes the wheel act"

    Re: Mississippi allows NON CDL to drive church buses.."Jesus takes the wheel act" The 100 air-mile allowance is for logging and has nothing to do with whether a CDL is required. I mentioned ambulance not because of how many clowns you can cram into one, but...

    Mississippi allows NON CDL to drive church buses.."Jesus takes the wheel act"

    As if a bus driver with a CDL would somehow prevent a lawsuit? In most states, ambulance, fire truck, snow plows, garbage truck and other city and state vehicles do not require a CDL. The occasional trip of a church bus, usually over residential streets at low speeds, isn't going to get much...

    The Brian Williams saga.

    That's exactly it. Liberals, by and large, don't much care to watch loudmouthed, outrageous, factually-challenged hosts, at least certainly not in the overwhelming, massively ginormous numbers in which conservatives do. Conservatives frothily lap that stuff up. Liberals, not so much...
