    Jaw dropping - How the "religion of peace" treats its daughters

    Ahhh .... so let me get this straight: essentially what you are saying is that, in this respect, we are just as bad as they are - because we have engaged in basically the same conduct (the denial of, or failure to acknowledge, the sins) Is that about it .... did I get it right ? Some folks...

    Jaw dropping - How the "religion of peace" treats its daughters

    Exactly - that is why one should work to avoid it, if at all possible. War is often just another form of collective insanity ......

    Jaw dropping - How the "religion of peace" treats its daughters

    BTW, just in case you don't understand what it was that I meant when I said: " .... that the US has refused to take any responsibility for whatsoever ...." What I mean is that the US government, after having dropped enormous amounts anti-personnel munitions on a neutral sovereign nation that...

    Jaw dropping - How the "religion of peace" treats its daughters

    I'll cite the particular source I used for my post - with the full understanding that it then leaves it open for you (or someone else) to claim it's the Commies, or some other bogey-man enemy (real or imagined) that are behind the estimates: Nonviolence International Southeast Asia But the...

    Jaw dropping - How the "religion of peace" treats its daughters

    A. I didn't suggest the military had anything to do with the estimates I cited (feel free to quote whatever you think I said that did make that claim) B. Might say a little bit about your ability to understand and comprehend if you think I did make that claim ......

    Jaw dropping - How the "religion of peace" treats its daughters

    Yeah ..... I pretty much figured you weren't .... however it makes little difference whether it was a war ordnance bombing .... or a single bombing of any type, by some other lunatic .... to an innocent civilian who has lost a limb, a family member or a love one, or indeed their own life itself...

    Jaw dropping - How the "religion of peace" treats its daughters

    Hmmm .... really ...... 99% of all bombing in the world eh ? Would you care to hazard a guess as to the amount of ordnance the major powers (US, USSR, Great Britain, etc.) have dropped and exploded, over the last 50 years, as compared to suicide bombers ? (You could even cut it down to the...

    The Quiet Exodus

    Sprinter as a family transport vehicle

    Shuttle service = stop-n-go driving = possibly one of the hardest things you can do to a vehicle ... as an example: My son has four Sprinters on with Fedex Home Delivery .... it is not unusual for him to be replacing tires and brakes every 20K to 40K miles ....... I got 120K out of my original...

    The Quiet Exodus

    It's always a delicate balance. As you know, one has both variable costs, and fixed costs. The more miles you run per unit of time (week, month, year), the more your fixed costs decrease per mile ..... Dunno about you (actually I do - your van is paid off :D) .... but my fixed costs run about...

    What is killing all my walmart fridges?

    I have a Frigidare from Lowes in mine ..... admittedly I usually don't run it during the hottest summer months (use the battery capacity to run a 12v AC) .... the fridge/freezer is around 2 years old and still works fine .......

    Let me interject this...

    Please read - and understand - the following very, very carefully - it is up to you know your rights .... and of course, it is up to you to exercise them as well: From Part 376: Lease and interchange of vehicles, specifically: Part §376.12: Written lease requirements (<--- clickable link)...

    The Quiet Exodus

    Can't speak for Anne, or anyone else ..... but below are the rates (all inclusive) I've seen for my last 9 loads: $ 0.728 $ 1.124 $ 0.785 $ 0.800 $ 0.907 $ 0.651 $ 0.810 $ 0.814 $ 0.761 Only one lower than 70 cpm (and it was a shorter one) Those numbers date from 07/15/09 to present (I was...

    Do You Have An iPhone?

    Yeah .... apparently there are a couple of different apps or hacks that will accomplish the feat - some require "jailbreaking" the phone. There was one that was posted in the App Store for a short time that I believe did not - don't recall the name of it - it was pulled shortly after it became...
