    Showers

    Yeah, Love's is strictly a 50 gal purchase for a shower. If you need a shower and there's only a Love's around, and you go in to buy a shower, when they ask you for your card, tell them, "I drive a cargo van with a 25 gallon tank, so I can never, ever buy enough fuel to get a shower." If you...

    Where is Jessie?

    Actually, the wouldn't have "likely" been out in force. There are thousands of white on black crime incidents every day. Jesse and Co. can only do so much.

    April Fools & Showers

    I've got one of the Gildan Heavy Blended Sweatshirt hoodies, a few of the side-blocked polos, and some t-shirts. Quality is top notch. The prices might fool you into thinking it's cheap stuff, but that's because we're paying actual costs with no markups. These last two winters I've just wore out...

    What's wrong with this thinking?

    The author of the site is definitely conservatively biased (he writes for The American Thinker, among others), but his numbers and charts are not biased at all. He's a computer and stat uber geek. He lays out the numbers for what they so you can see exactly how the money is spent, and does so...

    What's wrong with this thinking?

    In all fairness, comparing means-tested poverty and welfare programs to the spending on a handful of budgeted spending items is like comparing the monthly cost of fuel and oil to the monthly cost of putting air in your tires. Why wasn't defense spending included in that nifty chart? If you want...

    What's wrong with this thinking?

    I don't care what the reason for it is. You responded to the poster, not the post. Not a thing in your response even attempted to refute what was in the link she provided. Your response was 100% about her, not about what she posted. See if you can craft a response to her that doesn't include the...

    What's wrong with this thinking?

    "You" "You" "You" YOU made YOUR response 100 percent personal against Cheri, rather than about the things you disagree with in the article. That's off-topic and a personal attack. Like Cheri said, if you have something that refutes the statements in the article she linked, then, by all means...

    Roku Stick VS Chromecast

    Here's a good article on how Roku compares to the others. Like it says in the article, while "Apple TV, Chromecast, and Fire TV all have their strengths, they also share the same crippling weakness: self-interest. That's what makes Roku so important." AppleTV is about Apple, Chromecast is...

    What's wrong with this thinking?

    I know. That was my point. Federally owned lands are not in the tax-paid/tax-received equation. Neither is Indian Agency land, or emergency disaster relief. Neither is the Pittman-Robinson money isn't figure in the equation, either, as it is kept in a separate account from general taxes and is...

    New to this

    First thing you need to decide is whether you want to continue to expedite as a hobby, or if you want to change how you are doing things and do it professionally. You are running, after all, your own independent business. Fifty percent deadhead means you're working twice as hard as you should...

    What's wrong with this thinking?

    Man that's a lot of questions in rapid-fire succession. Like a little kid who has just learned to ask, "Why?" Many of your questions can be answered with a little research, but I'll give it a cursory go. Both. But it's also, in the words of Paul Ryan, “Americans were known and admired everywhere...

    Another Ft. Hood shooting

    Yes, really. The last guy who hijacked a thread is now on a 6 month all expense paid vacation to anywhere but here. Well that's a whole new topic again, isn't it? You are just en fuego today. Hijacked threads are disruptive and have a direct correlation to the activity, especially the lack...

    Another Ft. Hood shooting

    I dunno, since the article linked in the OP is about what happened, about the shooter, and what he was and wasn't. The context Dollard said it in was in a different article, not this EO thread. The context of the Fort Hood shootings may be relevant, maybe, and it's a stretch, but his comments...

    Another Ft. Hood shooting

    Was the shooter a Puerto Rican Muslim or something? Otherwise, what Pat Dollard has to say is rather irrelevant.
