    There absolutely is. He has a history of more than 40 phone calls to the police in which nearly every one of them overstated the gravity of the reality of the situation and has shown him as someone to see "suspicious activity" where none whatsoever exists. As an example, he called to report a...

    Unbridled Exuberant Arrogance

    The problem is, clearly, the NSA isn't as honest with the congress or the president as they should be. Plus, neither congress nor the president understand what all is going on, anyway. I mean, one day after the NSA admitted that they not only have the capability to listen in on your telephone...

    Another Hoffa dig

    "The FBI has confirmed the slab is still there." Your tax dollars at work. "I'm told the FBI believes he is there, 100 percent," Chasnick said. "They wouldn't do all this work and get the warrant and invade this property if they weren't certain." Wow. Never heard that before. They must be...

    Unbridled Exuberant Arrogance

    That's exactly it. Secrets are sometimes necessary, and everyone should be entitled to their privacy and secrets, individuals and governments alike. But when you start using your privacy and secrets to abuse others and commit crimes, it's a big fat hairy deal, whether you're an individual or a...

    Principal threatens valedictorian

    Nope. He didn't even do that when he had the chance. He accepted, rather than rejected the government control, and then broke his word. I agree. Promising that you will do something, and then you do the exact opposite, just as unbelievable.

    Unbridled Exuberant Arrogance

    It just keep getting better and better. We all know by now that this hit the fan because of the leak by Edward Snowden, the former CIA employee and NSA contract worker who worked for Booz Allen Hamilton, a contract security firm employed by the NSA. Snowden made the comment, "Any analyst at...

    Online Christian Evangelical Church

    Not to put too fine a point on it, but this thread is about Dave Hall's online church, you know, the one where he's the pastor. Common courtesy and proper decorum suggests this isn't the place for people to suggest going to alternatives. It's rather rude, IMNHO.

    Human nature being what it is, that's the most likely scenario. Also, keep in mind that "concerned" could also just as easily be "afraid for his life." I'm not sure what evidence you are talking about, but there is telephone recorded evidence that Zimmerman left his truck to pursue Martin...

    A Striking Contrast Among Motor Carriers

    The funny thing is, you really don't. It alwasy cracks me up when someone tries to use someone's post count as ammunition in an incredibly childish attempt to attack someone else. "You have nothing better to do than to sit around and post on the forums! You need to get a load. You need to...

    Principal threatens valedictorian

    Exactly. There is no hero and villain here - both the principal and the student are wrong. According to the apparent school policy, and state law, the principal broke both of them, and is out of control, but whether the rule the principal created or the principal's actions were constitutional or...

    Load1 June chatter

    Might make it easier to read on a phone. But on a laptop or a desktop monitor, not so much. But, if you use Acrobat Pro, you can easily rotate (and crop) individual pages. This last week's settlement, the load details page was missing. Odd.

    Principal threatens valedictorian

    The principal is clearly out of control, if the student agreed to the approved speech and then deviated from it, letter or no letter, that could prevent his appointment from going through.

    Hypocrisy.

    If you're going to quote me from a PM in violation of the Code of Conduct, the least you could do is quote me accurately, completely, and in context: "So, you want to punish him, get revenge, and use EO to do it? Because, unless those other things that went on with him and his drivers, and...

    Do keep in mind, however, that Zimmerman claimed, on many occasions, to be not merely a Neighborhood Watch volunteer, but the Captain of the Neighborhood Watch of that particular community. Not only that, but he was self-appointed both to the Neighborhood Watch Program and to that of Captain...

    A Striking Contrast Among Motor Carriers

    I'm still wondering how someone could park at a corporate headquarters twice previously and not have ever asked or observably determined whether they can park there overnight, especially since the issue of overnight parking at their former carrier is such a bone of contention.

    Holy Dog Butt, Batman!

    I spell it "butt" and "rectum" and don't get that. EVERYTHING offends somebody. Some people are just easily offended. Others works real hard at it. The dog really can't help what his butt looks like. He's not trying to offend you. He's not trying to be crude. He just wants some bacon, bacon...
