It's not really failing, because Obama and Not Obama all have the same destination. Different courses to get there still gets you there, to the rocks. Ron Paul is going somewhere else entirely. And that scares a lot of people, especially those who like the status quo. They like the rocks.

But wait! There's more! :D It has to do with mandatory sentencing and also being found guilty on charges other than the murder charges. If you are sentenced to death for murder, you could also be sentenced to, say, 10 years for using a gun while committing a felony, a separate charge. The man...

Noooo, everyone doesn't refer to everything differently. If they did, people would not be able to communicate. A banana is a banana, and if you call it a glogstick, no one will know what you're talking about. If people want to communicate clearly and effectively, where other people will...

Clearly, a lot of people read the headline, saw Obama's name in it, and then stopped reading, stopped thinking, and stopped being curious (not that they were all that curious to begin with). There is a legitimate issue about the routing in Nebraska through the Ogallala Aquifer. Obama and the...

Another word of advice when hooking up the positive power wire that goes straight to your battery: put a fuse between the wire and the battery.

There is "touch freight" and "no-touch freight". Common industry terms for such freight that must be touched is "hand load" and "hand unload". Whoever came up with "finger prints" or "fingerprint" to describe "touch freight" is someone who reeks of inexperience and ignorance. It's cute-sounding...

Certainly not Obama, or Mitt or Newt. Santorum is a no, as is Perry. Possibly a third party candidate, depending on who it is. I have a rather long history of voting third party in presidential races. Probably, though, I'd just write in Paul. It would be the best way to have my voice heard.

Was the "other race" gentleman fat, or skinny?

Oh, I know. Peeps who type "tho" instead of "though" prolly do it as a result of informal laziness. :D Same reason "through" gets spelled as "thru". Pure laziness.

Which is why such a disclaimer from one of the people who regularly do point out bad punctuation is all the more ironic, and funny. I think whatever he's using seems to work rather well. Doesn't change the fact that he's blaming the tool for his posts, tho. :D

I'd go with the middle one. Though AMD’s dual core A4-3300M APU supports Turbo Boost (the Intel i3 does not, the higher priced i5 does) with which its clock can rise to 2.5 GHz from nominal 1.9 GHz, the AMD is not able to compete the dual core 2.2 GHz Intel’s Sandy Bridge Core i3-2330M. The...

6 GB will be plenty. Most laptops that come with 6 are upgradable to 8, tho (32-bit Windows only supports 4 MB of RAM, 64-bit supports just a snotload if it, 192 GB). I always upgrade mine to whatever the max is, because I do a lot of multitasking and I work with some large images in Photoshop...

I understand. It still comes back to the craftsman, however, who is either unwilling or too lazy to go back and correct whatever number of inaccuracies that may exist. You are what you post, regardless of the method used to type it. You and you alone are responsible for the method used, and...

Oh, OK. Then 400 grit sandpaper and Minwax Polycrylic on the case will solve that problem. :D So would a standlone GSP. :D Seriously, since you have no special computing needs beyond the basics, don't get too bogged down in the processor and the amount of RAM. Any laptop that comes with...

Any laptop that comes with Windows 7 64-bit is going to have a more than adequate processor. Unless you have a special need that you have yet to disclose beyond that of GPS and basic Internet (maybe Word and Excel) with no gaming or fancy stuff, then any processor that comes with a Windows 7...

They're talking, but it's a little early for major changes to have happened in order to show the outcome. The USDA is in the process of closing a couple hundred offices which are more or less redundant, and will be laying off thousands. It's a small start, but it's a start nonetheless. Then...

It's also amazing how someone with no measurable sense of humor fails to develop one over a long period of time. "No one will leave Landstar or the trucking industry because we do." It was a joke, Phil.

Any $500 to $600 laptop at Best Buy or Office Depot should be more than adequate for your needs. Most come with Windows 7 64-bit, all of which will have more than enough RAM and a fast enough processor to handle Windows 7 and any of the programs you are running. Few have matte cases, however.

It is a poor craftsman who blames his tools. The table saw isn't to blame when the wood is cut incorrectly. Hammers aren't to blame when the nail is hammered into the wrong spot. Cruise Control isn't to blame when the vehicle rear-ends the one in front of it. Irregularities in punctuation and...

Ron Paul has already had an impact. We have current candidates, and current presidents, echoing many of the same things Paul has been talking about for years.
