Why Did The British Drive Their Greatest Genius To Suicide?
rbpls replied to Eddie Bennett's topic in RECENT TOPICS
Some people are backwards, ignorant and mean spirited enough to believe its Christian to go after good brilliant people like Turing cause he was ....egads....GAY. They would have to smarten up considerably to be dumbasses. They would have to grow considerably taller to touch a snakes belly walking under it. -
Are you saying he is responsible for the existence of this airport? Last time I looked, the airport was built and/or construction in progress before he ran. Was he supposed to raze it? Not try to make the best of it? Make a drag strip or something out of it? You can disagree him all day every day but he did take on his job in a county that already had this airport. I told him I disagree with him on some points about the airport and about two ongoing lawsuits against the county both about the airport and other issues. We agreed to disagree. I have friends involved all around and will c

People with IQs much higher than yours voted for the "liberal" Obama. In fact, if you look at the real geniuses today and in our history, most are and/or would NOT fans of the denseness and mean-spiritedness that rules the GOP for 3 decades now. If your IQ is that good, you should know better. Hell, if your IQ is over 95 AND you actually knew about this stuff, you should know better.

Economy grows at at 4% annualized rate in second quarter

Don't tell the Republicans....they hate good news. They do everything they can to obstruct and diminish the recovery....so when the country does better, they view it as NOT GOOD....not good I tell you. Wonder how things would be if the Republicans in Congress actually started working for instead of against our country? Sure would like to see that. -
Well, here is the thing that someone on here told me would never happen.....and said bring it up when it does or doesn't happen.

I've heard that said by good mechanics. If the transmission has lots of miles and has never been serviced, don't. One of my trucks has about 200k on the transmission and has never had a fluid filter change. I'm considering doing a fluid/filter change and adding an external cooler (I occasionally pull a heavy trailer) but my mechanic says at this stage I should just wait for the transmission to fail cause it probably won't. I have the Clark Howard mindset..... buy gently used, maintain mechanical systems well and drive them till the wheels fall off. I'm not rich enough to afford depreciati

Brand per se is not important. Use the synthetic oil suited to your engine. Change at appropriate intervals for your driving situation. If you buy a very expensive BMW and BMW does your maintenance and replaces your engine if it blows, BMW will use a 15,000 mile rated oil and filter with changes at 15,000 miles. I use 15,000 mile oil and durable filters with oil/filter change intervals at 10,000 to 12,000 mile intervals. Every engine in every vehicle (private and company... cars/trucks) I've had and kept for at least a decade were still running fine on original engines with over

Very glad to hear you are healing nicely. Long time no see..

Sometimes (I know you don't) you seem to hate this country or at least wish a pox on our house.

odd egg question for surepip and anybody else who wants to chime in
rbpls replied to mei lan's topic in RECENT TOPICS
That is true as far as it goes but good beef has red liquid running off of it that looks suspiciously like blood. Not all of the red in beef is blood but lots more of it is than in any egg. There is much more blood in a small beef patty than in any egg. -

rbpls replied to mei lan's topic in RECENT TOPICS
That's the good stuff...the difference between $1/dozen eggs and the $4/dozen eggs. I'm not crazy about the little blood spots in some eggs but rationally there isn't anything wrong with that if the egg is fresh. Why do you think beef is red? Blood all over. A tiny spot in an egg does look worse somehow. -

One of our roosters nailed me inside my thighs just above the knees one day....through jeans. One spur went kind of deep. Damn things are fast. I thought I was by one of our juvenile boys and brushed him aside....turns out it was the old guy. He nailed me so fast I didn't see it happen. Spurs hurt like hell. I wanted to hurt him but my better angels intervened. He was decent to the hens (relatively speaking) and very protective of his girls. He was a Rhode Island Red. Our Dominicker roosters have been a bit rougher on the hens We hatched about 20 eggs one time. Of course 16 turned out -
I saw very impressive proof in one of my Physics classes that Bumblee-Bees can't fly. The math looked air-tight. You know how I knew it was untrue? I've seen Bumblee-Bees fly. That guy makes money promoting our morally bankrupt love of money system over MANY proven to be less expensive more effective more humane systems THAT UNDENIABLY GET BETTER HEALTHCARE OUTCOMES. Decade after decade...on several continents and in many other countries. It is ignorance or lies to say there are not better ways to do healthcare than the American way. Damn.

Remember...more Doctors say "Lucky Strikes cure smokers cough...." An actual cigarette ad campaign slogan quoting actual credentialed whore doctors. Maybe your guy is only a part -time whore. Some whores are smart knowledgeable people. He is all that. But he is also willing to lie for money. Given his promise, education and capabilities, his whoring himself is not understandable....except that he loves money....and we all know what the "love of money" is. You are one funny mofo.

New Law Says Speeding is OK and others must get out of the way
rbpls replied to AustinPlantation's topic in RECENT TOPICS
If someone rushes up behind me, I move over. Go right and let them by. How does it help you to slow someone else down? I don't care if they are late to work or possibly have an emergency. Let them by. Plus, if they go 90, you can drive 83 behind them after you let them by. I used to drive to Duluth early am before traffic got thick. If you didn't drive at least 85 mph in the left lane on I-20, you were a major pain in many people's lives. Plus, it really was not safe to be in the left lane with people passing on the right. -
The flexibility, pricing and instruction with You Can Dance is pretty hard to touch. And no, I don't get any referral fee. 770-456-6244

Even a little blood spot in an egg is safe even if it is a bit unpalatable.... if the egg is fresh. Fresh eggs, yard bird eggs, gathered every day sometimes have those. If they are fresh, it won't hurt you. My wife-ex-wife took a course with the state so her chickens eggs could be sold legally. She never intended to sell them...we've given a bunch to friends and neighbors. The equivalent eggs sell for several times what regular store eggs do. Chickens are little velociraptors though. If they were a little larger, they would eat us. I've seen them kill mice and rats and eat them. They -
You would have had your fracture repaired in a timely manner in any other non-third-world country on earth. Most third world countries, you still would have had the care you needed. Why not here? Results matter. Many other systems achieve better results than ours....decade after decade...usually for about half the money per person AND covering everyone. Americans wait in many case far longer than French citizens do...or Canadians...or Brits... The overall results prove that beyond any doubt. Everyone waits in every country in some ways. People here do without till their de

Conservatives show their regard for the Environment
rbpls replied to CitizenCain's topic in RECENT TOPICS
No, it should say "Fake conservatives prove they actually hate conservatism, common sense and decency." And I promise you, not a single one of those idiots vote Democrat. Since they are idiots, wonder which party they do vote for? Is there some pattern here?? A connection? -
There is a class in Villa Rica put on by the You Can Dance Club (770-456-6244.) The lessons are very inexpensive (small monthly fee, you attend when you want to on the lessons nights...tuesday and thursday I believe) The teacher is a certified instructor and is really good. Patience should be her middle name. She will teach what ever the class wants to learn: ballroom, salsa, swing, etc. If you are a lady, bring a partner if possible. There seems to be an on-going shortage of male partners. It is not a long drive and you can't beat the price, schedule or instructor. Men will usual

You would like the French system.
-
I agree. We are living in a Plutocracy. One party is certainly more guilty of selling out the middle-class and the poor with their "private is always better" mantra which is almost always a way to raid the public treasury in the name of "efficiency." The people who complain about "takers" the loudest are usually dupes of the real "takers."
-
You are correct. Hitler, the facist, outlawed aboortzion. He was pretty big on condemning "takers" too. Sinclair Lewis stood for rights of the oppressed. Other good people have done that and and were criticized too.
