    which chains to buy?

    No. The states that require you to carry chains during certain months only apply to trucks. There are times, obviously, during certain road conditions, that you've got to have them on, or at least carry them, in order to proceed. But if you don't have them, or unless you have snow tires and/or...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    I care. If the point of posting stuff here is to communicate your thoughts and ideas to others, then it's best to do so in a manner in which you can be comprehended. You say you had no intention of insulting my intelligence. Fine, I accept that. However, when you state, "I know you don't...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    What's wrong with the picture is what Greg talks about with regard to the victims of 911. The church wants to rebuild, but because they are victims, they want their payday, too, and want to rebuild their church bigger and better and grander than it ever was, and they want the government to pay...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    Thanks for the blatant insult to my intelligence. Why? I wouldn't be able to understand anything he says. Clearly, I'm a friggin' moron. I don't even understand the difference between murder and killing someone in a war. While you believe that is impossible for someone to have an understanding...

    Air Tabs

    Yes they do. And they don't even call it "over length", they simply exclude it from the measurements. Up to 5 feet behind the trailer is allowed. Everything spooks you, Phil. Now you're freaking out about Air Tabs adding to the width of the vehicle? For someone who researches the pее out of...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    No, people shouldn't be beheaded when captured. They shouldn't be killed regardless of the method. But the method is meaningless. You're still dead. We don't behead captives, but we have killed them while in captivity. We've even killed them at capture because we don't want to be bothered with...

    Q2 GDP Growth Could Be Revised To Just 1% After Trade Data

    "That was much worse than Wall Street predicted..." I'm shocked. "Not surprisingly, the Federal Reserve and *private economists have been busy cutting their forecasts for the rest of year." And they'll be wrong when they're done. They always are.

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    It's not, but apparently when you kill someone by beheading them, it's far, far worse than just blowing up them into a million pieces.

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    Pilgrim, like you, I can understand and accept collateral damage of civilians getting wounded or killed in war. I don't much like it, but that's just the way it is, and there's nothing that can be done about it. Mistakes and atrocities of all kinds happen in battle. It happens. But it the video...

    which chains to buy?

    If ya get chains, and you need to use them, you have to get outside in the cold and then lay down in the snow and slush to put them on. No thanks. I'll pass. Besides, the only time you're gonna need 'em is when you are someplace like the Rockies or the Cascades during a snowstorm. And even then...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    Your experiences in the military many years ago (you were in the military for 20 years?) do not reflect what is going on in the military today. Clearly, you didn't bother to read the story at that link. My uncle, the retired Army colonel, who still lives next to the base in Germany, said it's...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    Evangelicals would be the easy answer, but really anyone who believes that they are doing the right thing because they believe in God and justify their thoughts and actions as being righteous. But it goes way deeper than that, and way deeper into the military than many people can fathom. There...

    Diesel Injector Cleaning

    There's a process where you remove the fuel lines and run external lines to and from the injectors, and run something like Diesel Purge (expensive brake cleaner, basically) through the injectors at pressure. The supply valve brings new fuel into the injectors, while the return valve processes...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    Out military reflects us as a nation directly. It gets it's marching orders from the morals and values of this nation, which came from the morals and values of the people who founded this nation. Everyone in the nation isn't a Christian, but there's no denying that it's a Christian nation, as...

    Diesel Injector Cleaning

    Yeah, it's called Howes Meaner Power Kleaner. Double dose for the first three tanks to clean the injectors, then regular dose in every tank after that to keep them clean.

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    No, it's just barely. Muslims, radicals especially, operate under their religion, and so does our military. We're a Christian nation, founded by Christians (as so often gets point out here and many other places), and our military reflects that in how and what they do. Muslims are wrong...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    No, the Christian radical are not the same as the jihadists. Jihadists behead people on the Internet, radical Christians mow people down from Blackhawk helicopters on the Internet. OK, I'm being overly dramatic, but just barely.

    Can You teach an old dog new tricks?

    WiFi is radio, just like Bluetooth and a cell phone. If you need a stronger signal, you either need to be closer, or use an external antenna for the WiFi. And like all radio signals, sometimes there is interference that results in a weak or spotty signal.

    Another One Bites the Dust - 41 J's changing over

    And that's probably why you should go back to Facebook, where who posts something on your wall is more important than what they post, because there wasn't even the slightest hint of sarcasm in my post. It was a blatant humorous rah-rah advertisement for Lawrence, inspired by his "www.eo4me.com"...

    Well, no, they're not LIKE Westboro and Wright, in that they all do and say the same exact things, but they are the same in that regard in varying degrees, some more or less extreme than the Wright crowd, is all. They all, even the allegedly apolotical churches, still foster their members to go...
