    Sorry to hear that, Ken. My niece had a miscarriage a few months ago. It's devastating.

    Our Bailout dollars at work!!

    It's not a lie or a hoak. It is interesting, however. Incidentally, "hoak" isn't a word.

    Our Bailout dollars at work!!

    A irrelevant justification, then a moot point, then a narrow conclusion based on partial facts. Interesting.

    Our Bailout dollars at work!!

    "This is simply worng. I don't care abiut GM's bottom line when it comes to their foreign companies, not one bit. They should have just been let to go Bankrupt..." People say don't buy a Japanese car, even if it's made here, because the profits still go back to Japan. Interesting.

    Conscientious Objector

    I'm not Pro Choice or Pro Life, I'm Pro Staying Out of the Mother's Business. If someone wants to get an abortion, no matter how you feel about it, it's none of your business. The only exception might the the one who got her pregnant, and even he takes a back seat to the mother. Now, if you...

    Robert Duvall

    Sure, make up your own list. There's a long list of really great actors, both personality actors and character actors to be made. For me, Gene Hackman is a personality actor. Hoosiers, Unforgiven, Mississippi Burning, The Firm, even Superman, it's still Gene in there. With Dustin Hoffman, he...

    The way it SHOULD be.

    "The first thing we must do is kill all the lawyers," is probably the most misinterpreted line from any of Shakespeare's works. Then again, maybe not... It's a line from Shakespeare's King Henry VI, where there's actually a very funny scene where "Dίck the Bucther" and his cohorts...

    Robert Duvall

    With most actors, including most of the ones on the above list, when you see them in a movie, you never forget, at least somewhere in the back of your mind, that it's them playing a role. I call these "personality" actors. For example, whether he's playing The Joker, Colonel Nathan R Jessep...

    You know how the news reports tend to be a little on the doom and gloom side, where everything is an OMG Breaking News Crisis!!! and how every weather system on the Weather Channel is over-hyped juuuust a tad, where it's never just cold anymore, it's bitterly cold, and there's never a snowstorm...

    Sprinter Factory E track

    When I got my first van I scoped out all the available securement options, and went with E-track simply because it was easier to find fittings and straps at most truck stops, but I almost went with L-track. L-track is popular with many van conversions, especially for wheel chair securement...

    Sprinter Factory E track

    Not that anyone is likely to get them confused, but airline track, which is probably what most people call it, is actually L-track. :) You can use the o-ring fittings or pear-ring fittings for tie-downs, or you can get ratchet straps with L-track fittings in each end. You can even get ratchet...

    Tire Thumper

    Depends on what you're caught doing while you have a tire thumper. It you're in a Camaro and you get caught with 4 pounds of weed in the back seat, and they find a tire thumper under the front seat, they'll conclude that the tire thumper's primary use is as a weapon. You'll get hit with a...

    The way it SHOULD be.

    We do learn from our elders about politics, but that doesn't mean we have to have the same politics. My elders in my family, most of whom are now gone, are all now, and have always been, liberal Democrats. I'm a real hit at family gatherings.

    Obama Snubs Nation's Heros

    Me, to, but I'm just about done. True, not everything that happens finds its way onto the Internet. It's rare, though, that an event of such importance and tradition as this would escape having even a tiny blurb in Start and Stripes and other military news outlets, a note on the American Legion...

    Obama Snubs Nation's Heros

    Ask Craig how many of the previous Salute to Heroes Balls were on the official ball list of the Committee, and why wasn't this one? No President has ever attended an unofficial Inaugural Ball.
