    Crime set to increase.

    Grow your own. Plant it, grow it, cut it, dry it, smoke it. It's real easy man. Arsenic, also should be legal to ingest if one so chooses. There are always valid reasons to rationalize an infringement of liberty. Always. That's why it's so easily and often done.

    GOP: 'In God We Trust' bill needed to remind President Obama

    I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to use "d!cking" in the forums, especially when using "God" in the same sentence. You can use "penising", tho, despite it being not as aesthetically pleasing.

    Crime set to increase.

    They had federal charges because of the Interstate Commerce Clause. Early on, the American judicial system did not accept drug prohibition laws, because the laws violated the liberties of citizens. Prosecutors argued that possessing drugs was a tax violation, as no legal licenses to sell drugs...

    Kicked out by TA

    Well, saying you will no longer do business at a TA or a Petro before corporate is even given the chance to resolve the situation seems a tad rash. You also didn't state what you are driving. Do you have an UltraONE Expediter card? And did you take that into the store and tell the manager you...

    Crime set to increase.

    The fallacy is that if hard drugs were legal, then the numbers of hard drug users would rise dramatically. One can use alcohol, Prohibition and Repeal, as an historical guide. I don't do heroin or cocaine, for example, not because it is illegal, but because I do not want to. If I wanted to...

    Crime set to increase.

    I about busted a gut laughing at that one. True liberty existed long before the constructs of Judaism and Christianity. Judaism and Christianity, and most other religions are designed specifically to control liberties and to redefine them as as others choose, and then impose those definitions...

    the king of babbling lunatics

    I gave up after two minutes and didn't hear any gaffes. Obama has certainly had many gaffes, just like everyone else who speaks in public and gets recorded, but none of them were in the first two minutes of that video. If there were some really kewl gaffes in the video, then whoever edited it...

    Another babbling lunatic

    I watched the entire video and I didn't see a babbling lunatic. He doesn't appear to be intoxicated, he's not slurring nor is he stumbling or fumbling for words. It looks and sounds like he's feeling comfortable and relaxed, which is what one would expect at a fund raiser of this type and...

    Whatever necame of Gary Addis?

    Clearly? About some things, perhaps. Resurrecting a year and a half old thread to reply to, and send a PM to, someone who has been permanently banned, maaaaaybe not so much. Omniscient... he aint. :D

    Gop upset

    It ain't that big a deal (tho people will and are making it into one), I mean, really. Context is important. Zombies run amok in Delaware | The Columbus Dispatch: Yesterday, "with shredded skin and sunken eyes, zombies rattled fences, moaned loudly and shuffled their way across the Ohio...

    Do you like Penny Auctions?

    It's not a scam, but it's still kind of icky. The items up for bid are owned by the owners of the site. Start multiplying the cost of each bid by the number of bids, and the site owners make out like bandits, because once you've bid, you don't get that money back even if you lose the auction...

    OOS / INS Macros are Automatic now

    It should certainly help dispatch a lot, not having to waste time putting people in and out of service. Having the ability to do this was brought up just very recently, and now already it's in place. That's impressive.

    panther and owners pulling trucks out

    there's nothing inherently wrong with it. You know what you're getting and it's consistent. The major downside of a flat rate system is that miles and revenue become one in the same, so when people on the flat rate system ask others, "How many miles are you getting?" they have to endure...

    I-81 Harrisburg, Pa WARNING

    How, exactly, did the poor poster get slammed? No one slammed the poor poster. The NWS got slammed. Ice got slammed. But the poor poster is fine.

    A Babbling Lunatic

    A "stark, unfiltered look" is a euphemism "for highly edited audio and video, including using the same techniques they use to make dogs, pigs and little eTrade babies move their mouths to talk, using Adobe After Effects and other software". :D

    I-81 Harrisburg, Pa WARNING

    It ain't that big a deal. If it was any less of a deal it wouldn't even be a deal. :) The important thing is that we got Moot riled up over the term of "Black Ice". :D I agree it's a silly term. It talks down to people and sensationalizes ice as if people have never experienced transparent ice...

    I-81 Harrisburg, Pa WARNING

    Correct. The NWS does not issue a "Black Ice Warning" or "Black Ice Advisory" or a "Black Ice Watch" (despite the many newspaper headlines that indicate otherwise). They issue a "Winter Weather Advisory" and then in the advisory statement indicate what the advisory actually is. In the case of...

    I-81 Harrisburg, Pa WARNING

    Yes, they did. they have issued many in the past. The term is a slang term, which the NWS admits, but it does denote the clear or translucent ice on roadways that are difficult or impossible to see. It's a warning that ice may be present which you will not readily see, as opposed to the more...
