    Sprinter options

    In June of '06 I placed an order with the dealer for the Sprinter I wanted, with all the bells and whistles (like the ultra comfortable La-Z-Boy-esque Deluxe Seating Package, and the house bank aux alternator that is normally used in passenger vans for passenger air conditioning), and was...

    Pilot Rewards Card and DOT Inspections

    OK, here's what ya do. Use the TA UltraONE card, but leave the very unused Pilot reward card very visible. When the officer asks for the Pilot card, gladly hand it over. :D

    A Single Tip Now Lands You on Terror Watch List

    "...senior counterterrorism officials say they have altered their criteria so that a single-source tip, as long as it is deemed credible, can lead to a name being placed on the watch list." "The standard for inclusion on it remains the same as it was before - that a person is "reasonably...

    Obama hails puppy-killer

    Actually, it didn't answer that question.

    Obama hails puppy-killer

    Just as much, eh? Well, okay, I guess that answers that question. What about if he were a white wide receiver? Oh, wait. A white wide receiver? That's funny.

    Obama hails puppy-killer

    Yeah, that's true. But LEO's are arresting them pretty often. They just don't get national coverage, I guess, just local coverage. I wonder what the outrage would be if people know how extensive fox hunting is, using greyhounds to hunt them. It's not pretty when the hunt is over. It's a...

    Obama hails puppy-killer

    That's pretty naive, actually. There are dogs killed every day in this country by dog fighting operations. Obviously it's more widespread than many people are aware. Where is the daily outrage?

    Obama hails puppy-killer

    I don't know that he is paying some other debt, or continuing to pay the one he's already paid. I didn't say that he was. My point is, if some people had their way, he absolutely would be. For example, those who detest professional athletes on some philosophical level, and then use that as an...

    USAF Lt. Col: Bradley Manning has rights!

    If you are leased to a carrier and you go online or somewhere else in public and say things they don't like, they might retaliate against you, like canceling your lease. Same thing if you are an employee of any company, say Walmat, as an example. You go public with things you don't like, and the...

    Tab Key

    Laptop keys are usually such that when you remove one you can't put it back. Compressed air would be the first choice. Bang the pee out of the key for an hour or two until the food particle is pulverized would be second. If all else fails, best place to get a replacement OEM keyboard is CDS...

    Obama hails puppy-killer

    Vick did his time, paid his debt to society. How much more debt is he required to pay? So long as he doesn't kill any more puppies, it's a non-issue. He shouldn't have to keep paying for what he did. It's kinda like when you do something on EO that gets you banned. Once the ban is over, it's...

    Wikileaks exposes more US lies

    "The U.S. last year denied reports that it had received a request for assistance from Dubai, but a recently released WikiLeaks cable proves otherwise." Last year? Huh? When?What?

    USAF Lt. Col: Bradley Manning has rights!

    Whatever "normal" means, I'm not sure, but it's certainly not routine and common for someone to be charged with stealing classified materials, I'll grant you that. And, oh, by the way, that's what this entire case is about. Yeah, saw it. There are a lot of political cartoons about the subject...

    honest question for those ready to hang manning and assange

    Possibly that's the case, but it would be negligent not to investigate pretty much anything that could have a positive or negative effect on the DOD, assess it, then formulate a plan to deal with it, good or bad. My wording, their conclusion. "It must be presumed that Wikileaks.org has or...

    USAF Lt. Col: Bradley Manning has rights!

    Not necessarily. Usually those Charge Sheets are pretty generic and don't get too specific, especially when it's classified information that would become public once it's on the Charge Sheet. They generally save the specifics for the court martial. But in this case, you're right, they really...

    honest question for those ready to hang manning and assange

    Known and indisputable, yet qualified with "apparently"? :D That implies the US did the investigation to figure out how to take Wikileaks down, but that's not what that document is about at all. One point of conclusion points out how Wikileaks can be fatally marginalized, but another conclusion...

    USAF Lt. Col: Bradley Manning has rights!

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words. In this case, more than that (especially with me at the keyboard). Another picture that should be burned into your brain is his picture on his Facebook page. It's another thousand words, but can be condensed down to two - Pretty Boy. :D I just find...
