    The 99

    The Supreme Court has ruled, and affirmed many times, the separation of church and state. There is no exception for what the "majority" wants, since the Constitution is designed specifically to protect the minority, or the individual. Supreme Court rulings become the law of the land, as per the...

    Glad you brought that up. Been meaning to mention that. Older posts are not there, either. I did a search for something I posted, I've searched for it several times in the past and found it right away, but since the.upgrade, no joy.

    Cops

    There was a guy out here a while back with a black van, black wheels, black windows, black everything, including a black Qualcomm. And shiny. I used to see it a lot, but I haven't seen it in a long time.

    Ron Paul wins Virgin Islands with 29%...

    The Virgin Islands doesn't portion out delegates by popular vote. Instead, voters there elect delegates who go to the convention in Tampa. The delegates elected are Luis Martinez, April Newland, and John Clendenin, who are Romney supporters, Warren Bruce Cole who was an uncommitted delegate who...

    It's pretty rare when I leave the consignee before having scanned my paperwork. I'll scan it right where I sit or I'll move over out of the way, send my Depart, scan the paperwork, then leave. The only time I don't do that is when the QC is acting (pretty rare) or there is simply no good spot...

    Anti Rush Limbaugh Robocalls

    All those asterisks kind of make it like the Wheel of Fortune, I guess. Spin the wheel, ask for a "W", an "h", buy an "o", ask for an "r", and buy an "e'.

    2010 sprinter dpf filter clogged

    Yeah, idling and even just driving in cold ambient temps can block a DPF due to unburned fuels. It's important that you use a 47 Cetane or higher diesel fuel, which means the fuel will burn quicker and more completely, thereby dramatically reducing the amount of soot an ash in the DPF. Most...

    Anti Rush Limbaugh Robocalls

    The Libs should be mad at Rush for calling Ms Fluke a :censoredsign:. She's not a :censoredsign:. A :censoredsign:'ll sleep with anybody for nothing, but it's a ***** who sleeps for money or status or other goals. Clearly, Ms Fluke is a *****. :D

    So what do you carry for spare parts (and.. how my spare parts saved my night)

    Don't know who "they" are, but I'm quite sure many of them don't, just as I'm sure many of them do. Just depends on the water. If it's hard water (ionized, full of minerals), like it is here, dealers and shops mostly use either distilled water or they have water filters on their mains to prevent...

    One thing about the newer Droids (and maybe others, I don't know, but my Bionic, for sure), is that you no longer have to do the *228 thing anymore. It happens automatically. Not very germane, I know. Call it a fun fact. :)

    If his lugs are fine, as you attest, then why would he make up something about a meeting and a conversation in the driver's lounge that never happened?

    Here's how Verizon Throttles. Good overview and explanation. They tend to throttle more towards the end of the billing cycle, and it resets at the beginning. I've had molаsses 3G speeds at the very beginning of the cycle, so it's location rather than throttling. My billing cycle ends on the...

    Yeah, a lot of times. Sometimes it's fine, though. Dexter, MI and Hampshire, IL (TA out there by Elgin, sort of) can be brutally slow, and in my driveway (actually, anywhere in this town). And by slow, I'm talking slower than 300 baud dialup in some cases. Four bars, yet it'll be slower than...

    I'm beginning to wonder if someone doesn't have a few loose lug nuts. Seriously.

    I've never met you face-to-face. I've never spoken with you in-person or on the phone. I don't even know what you look like other than how others have described you to me. Other than during orientation when someone took me into the driver's lounge, I've only been in there twice and neither time...

    I used to use it. Same experience as you, more bad locations than good ones. That's why I got an aircard from Verizon (3G and now 4G). I also tether the phone (have an unlimited 4G data plan on that one).

    How Ron Paul's Minions Plan to Hijack the GOP Convention

    Same here, except for the Catholic schools and the ruler part. I am a product of the public school system, and in addition to "independent thinking' and 'problem solving', I was taught the importance of "why?". I spent 12 years learning a lot of things, but the most consistent thing, and the...
