    trucker stabbing update

    I dunno. Every time I can't find my keys, it's usually my keys that are missing.

    Skirts

    Yes! I looked at the Utilikilt, but I didn't quite meet the requirements. Product Features Made from durable yet soft poly-cotton blend. Equipped with stainless steel snaps. Designed to be worn low on your hips. Intended for guys 5'8" to 6'2" -- 23 inches long. I'd like to be able to boast...

    Mind if I quote you on that?

    Most Dangerous Cities List ala FBI

    It would lower us to that level, absolutely, but I agree with Leo that it would work. (As I'm now a moderator, it goes with the territory). It wouldn't work as a long term solution, but it would certainly get the borders under control and secured until a decent immigration policy could be worked...

    Skirts

    Oh, I agree. I also stepped up my dress code, or maybe I should call it my skirt code, a while back, and I too enjoy the feeling it has given me. I wear pants when loading and unloading, of course, but there's nothing like driving down the road wearing a skirt. I like the attention and...

    Expediter is waiting at the pearly gates....

    I'm confused. If the DOT was on the other side, then it couldn't have been Heaven. If that's true, then St. Peter lied? But St. Peter wouldn't lie, would he? Does that mean the DOT really is in Heaven? If so, then Heaven really isn't any better of a place than we've got right here. That's...

    Global war on drugs has 'failed' say former leaders

    There's a group with a firm grasp of the obvious. <snort> And there's a group who wouldn't recognize obvious if they were slapped in the face with it and then handed to them to read. <snort>

    Terrell Pryor driving on a suspended liscense. Today's breaking news!

    That's what got Tressel in trouble in the first place. "Beat Michigan. That's all we care about. Beat them any way you can. As long as you can beat Michigan, we'll look the other way. Just don't get caught."

    Birth certificate forged?

    I've read this thread from cover to cover and I can't seem to find Leo's ACLU story in it anywhere. Oh, wait, you must be talking about something outside the current thread. <snort> AHHH, nice example of the argumentum ad hominem logical fallacy where you try and refute the argument by...

    zoning board to property owner: tear down house or go to jail

    Yup, same as everywhere else. Some parts are zoned, some aren't.

    zoning board to property owner: tear down house or go to jail

    It's not true. Texas is chock full of zoning laws. Same as everywhere else, it just depends on the town.

    Birth certificate forged?

    Well, it doesn't say "they" have proof, it says this one guy has "irrefutable proof". What it doesn't say, tho, is that his irrefutable proof has already been refuted. Also, it doesn't say that "criminal charges are filed," it says the same guy in question filed a criminal complaint, which is...

    Joplin, A Quick Story...

    For one, nobody really expected Katrina to be so bad. We all knew it was a powerful hurricane, but New Orleans has weathered many of those, so to have people stay behind who could otherwise leave on their own, and then regret it, shouldn't be surprising. It was predicted, actually. Two, again...

    sprinter camping ac choices

    The engine powers the compressor for that AC, so he's right, you'll need another AC for shore power.

    Sprinter PM results

    While it's not really known for sure, the indicators are the Black Death is caused by two things, one is the low Cetane we have here in North America, and the other is the ULSD. Using Power Service in every tank solves the Cetane problem, and since biodiesel adds lubricity but also leaves behind...

    Joplin, A Quick Story...

    No, certainly not intelligent, nor would deductive reasoning be the term. The term is "stereotyping", or more accurately, "prejudicial stereotyping". Stereotyping is when you create a set of inaccurate, simplistic generalizations about a group that allows one to categorize them and treat them...

    Titanic launch centenary to be marked in Belfast

    I'm not sure if it's a religious thing to mourn those who dies, but primarily a celebration of the shipyard and all the work that went into building that ship, or if it's a religious celebration (of what kind I cannot imagine). Either way, it smacks of creepy desperation to draw tourist dollars...
