    Who going to win

    There's no question that racism is THE factor here. None. But that's a small part of the bigger picture. That's a symptom, not a cause. I maintain that it's the disavowing of the Regan Republicans that have allowed racism to become the issue that it is. Again, two failed wars, reduced civil...

    Taking care of our fellow drivers

    If you're unable to turn your DRL off, then dismissing for a moment that even the momentary flash of bright lights will kill someone night vision, you might want to just go ahead and read up on the laws that state when it is legal to have your bright lights on. Most places it's within 500 feet...

    Who going to win

    Oh, they'll turn on him, though. Not sure when, but it'll happen. They always do. And it'll be fun to sit back and watch it. You keep talking like if Obama wins then it's an Obama win. It's not, it's a Regan defeat. Doesn't matter who the Democrats run out there, or who the Republicans run out...

    The "Obama thang" was a joke, cause everyone would be taxed the same, everyone would be treated equally, just like Obama wants. lol Except that you can't rob from the rich and give to the poor while treating everyone the same. BTW, I have read the relevant cases on the incom tax situation...

    Who going to win

    "There is however an additional factor that you didn't cover ...... one that has been evolving from at least certainly from the point of Chicago and Kennedy's election .... and most particularly in the last several election cycles ..... voter fraud." Well, while voter fraud is an important...

    "Supposedly the 16th amendment removed that prohibition..." Supposedly? There's nothing supposed about it. It's directly and quite specifically alters Article 1 Section 8 for the sole purpose of levying a tax on income. "..... but there seems to be quite a bit of disagreement as to whether it...

    Article 1, Section 8 The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States...

    Who going to win

    History practically dictates that Obama will win. Throughout our history we have had, up to now, four "pivot point" elections, where history was changed and the United States was headed in new directions, by the elections of 1800, 1860, 1932 and 1980. In the 12 years following adoption of the...

    Magical Mystery F.S.C.

    I once turned down a load going from Lebanon, TN to Indianapolis, because at that time of night I didn't want to deal with going all the way up Hwy 231, instead of the Interstate, and that's the routing that the loaded miles paid. It paid a $.44 FSC. The guy parked next to me took it. An hour...

    Taking care of our fellow drivers

    Oftentimes the driver you are talking to on the CB doesn't have his on, might be on the phone or listening to satellite radio. When you flash your lights, at the instant you flashed yours, he may have been scanning for traffic ahead and paying more attention to that rather than having his eyes...

    Brownie Challenge

    This seasoning is great when used while cooking, but can also be used at the table. It's great for meats of all kinds, and veggies, anything with cheese (broccoli and cheese sauce with this stuff on it, man, oh, man). You can use it heavily while cooking, and at the table just like salt. I can...

    Van to Dock Ramp

    Every time a forklift operator asks, "Will this fit?" my standard reply is, "Yeah, it'll fit. Can you thread a needle?"

    Brownie Challenge

    Turtle brownies? That sounds like brownies with caramel and nuts. Sounds good, tho. I worked for Fuddruckers when they were in their infancy. I was the general manager when we opened up the new store in 21st Ave in Nashville (near Vanderbilt). Way prior to the store opening I spent nearly 3...

    Van to Dock Ramp

    Yeah, it would be really bad for a customer to order dock high, and then a van show up. About twice a year or so I'll show up to a place that requires dock high, but so far in every case, dock high wasn't specifically ordered. I recently went to one where the customer called into UPS like...

    ObAMA/OsAMA - The difference is just a little bs

    Don't even try to play dumb, 'cause we're not stupid here. You were asked to keep the racial slurs to yourself, and you promptly came right back with two more of them, badly disguised as the first initials of proper names. You're very first posting here was to bump a 8-year old thread for no...

    Yup, I like that, too. Heck, everybody likes watermelon.

    Brownie Challenge

    Absolutely. You mix it and cook it all in the same pan using just a fork. The only thing you dirty up is a fork and the pan. The pan wipes clean with a wet wipe and paper towel.

    Brownie Challenge

    This is what I make. Intensely chocolate. It's a fast recipe, all made in a single pan, so cleanup is a snap. A true cake brownie, not a fudge brownie, but it is moist and rich, dense and chewy. It's ugly, as most microwave brownies are, which is why you want to cover them up at the end with...
