    California bans all .45 ammunition

    It's always a toss up for me, between the other stories and the readers' comments [I don't see the ads] on those right wing sites, both are hilarious. And scary.

    April fooled ya !!!!!

    I was really excited to deliver [to the X Games] in Aspen a few years ago, until I found the one way out to the east was closed for 3 days. Glad you had better luck, lol, this time of year is still 'iffy' in Colorado.

    About time WI catches up!

    The comment "the safest roadway is when you can get 85% of people driving about the same speed" is spot on. Drivers who go faster engage in increased lane changing, while those who drive slower cause increased lane changing among drivers behind them. Both increase odds of a collision...

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    Rubbish! Anyone who is a target of the police is going to react in some negative way, sooner or later. They will reach a point where polite compliance is no longer possible, and then, "resisting arrest" [or just running away] is inevitable. Whether it's about harassment, excessive taxation, or...

    Marco Rubio steps in it.

    Wrong is the belief that a fetus is a baby, person, "other being", or anything other than a potential human being. Anyone has the prerogative to wrongly believe whatever they like, but they have no right to impose that belief upon anyone else. It's only a "tired old argument" because of the...

    Books for drivers

    Another plus for Audible - the readers are pros [last one I listened to was read by Lynn Redgrave, who was excellent], but there are reviews by listeners that warn you off the few that don't measure up.

    Books for drivers

    The biggest advantage to the mp3 player is that it goes along when I'm out of the truck, and the battery lasts way longer than the phone. I get free Kindle books, but Audible is a small luxury that's worth the cost. [Less than $20/month] If you find the book "Leviathan" by Scott Westerfeld...

    You might be a terrorist

    When people understand the meaning of the word 'potential', everything changes.

    Books for drivers

    Absolutely agree - except I use Audible and an mp3 player, because I don't want to use the cellphone. And I'm a very picky reader, lol.

    Happy St. Expeditus Day

    I'm still looking for the wheel chock - I know there's one in there somewhere, lol. :D

    School lunches

    My kids blamed The Republicans object because healthy foods cost more - why am I not surprised? Do they have a clue what childhood obesity costs, now and later? Kids blame Michelle because the adults told them it's her fault. These are the same adults who can't manage to make healthy food...

    Marco Rubio steps in it.

    Social issues determine whom the GOP will nominate only because the far right fringe has inordinate power within that closed group. Once nominated, maintaining such far right views guarantees a Democratic victory. . Conservatives cannot "get the society right", because the society has its' own...

    Marco Rubio steps in it.

    Spending money based on having money left after the bills are paid would really instill confidence in the American public - otherwise, it's known as check fraud.

    OMG I shoulda slept in the van!

    Don't know about Motel 6, [but they lie anyhow: they've never left the light on for me], but CLC has Days Inn, and that's pretty close, I think.

    Marco Rubio steps in it.

    It pertained to you because you posted the comment that was cryptic [aka cowardly] and did not respond to the issue. It's the Republicans who are eliminating both Planned Parenthood and every abortion provider they can. That won't eliminate abortion [which is a legal right], it will only make...

    50 Movies You Have to Watch Before You Die

    Harold and Maude. Fargo. American Graffiti.

    Marco Rubio steps in it.

    I am saying, not suggesting, that they are creating roadblocks and obstacles [not just with photo ID, but with early & absentee voting, same day registration, etc] that make it more difficult to vote. In the absence of credible [or any] evidence that voter fraud is a problem, they must have...

    Greasytshirt's Shirt

    I went to a job interview once for a vending machine company, and I promised if hired, I wouldn't wear my favorite t shirt, the one that says "Change is inevitable - except from a vending machine." The interviewer offered me a job on the spot, lol. :D

    That Bible in your van or truck, imagine that.

    And try to resist the easy puns, too. :p

    Marco Rubio steps in it.

    True, Republicans always propose the laws that restrict voters, but how much better are the Democrats that go along?
