Nope, but an IQ test should have been. Maybe that should be a question on the Pilot's exam: When is it OK for people to ride in the luggage compartment? a ) when they are drunk b ) when they are loud c ) When you have loaded the aircraft beyond it's capacity d ) when you would rather sit with a suitcase than your wife e ) never you dill hole, It's called a LUGGAGE compartment for a reason Have you ever ridden in a car with a thirteen year old girl. Please dear God do not disable texting for everyone in the car.

Brought to you by the same bureaucracy that made me modify my luggage door on my Piper Cherokee Arrow with a $1800 reinforcement kit because some moron let his kid ride in the luggage compartment and he fell out at 4,000 ft. in severe turbulence.

Over the air and HULU. It's free and we never looked back.

When I retired at the end of October, I was worried about lots of things like money, what would I do,etc... People said "give it a month". I didn't believe them. So here's something I just noticed. Last year about a week before Christmas, we started the search for the Christmas cards, updated the list, wrote the cards, addressed the envelopes, and put on the stamps in a frantic rush beginning at about six in the evening and ending at about three in the morning. This year, I found the cards on Thursday, updated the list on Friday, we wrote the cards and addressed the envelopes over t

Canada first nation to pull out of Kyoto protocol

The funny (sad) part was that nearly the entire recent annual global meeting was about how to set up a mechanism for the rich countries to pay the poor ones, not about science. That tells you pretty much all you need to know right there. -

I think they should get Justin Timberlake to be their spokesman. "Soup there it is!"

He has never called himself "God's Quarterback". Bloggers do. He has constantly said in the press that football is just a game and God doesn't care who wins. "Tebowing" as an activity was started by some Jewish New Yorker named Jared Kleinstein with too much time and a website. So freaking what if the kid poses in a prayer like position after a good play. He's a good kid, an altruist, and a far better role model for youngsters than morons like Terrell Owens or Plaxico Burress. Michael Vick is elevated to sainthood from the "dog house" for supposedly changing his ways after a sti

Ok, so who wouldn't have dated a Penthouse/Playboy/Glamor model while they were in college. Show of hands......still waiting......that's what I thought. I mean seriously, the star quarterback dating a model. Who ever heard of such a thing.

So has everything else including pay. There was no Hope Scholarship then either. Look, I can have "empathy" without feeling responsible for paying off somebody's student loans. It took me seven years to get through Georgia Tech, and not because I was stupid. I worked my way through with no help from mommy, or daddy, or taxpayer grants. Kids can and do still work their way through school. While the article is a bit tongue in cheek, it has some very real points to make. The idea of working for something by starting at the bottom is totally foreign to a lot of kids right now, as is the id

Don't Lindsey Vonn and Tim Tebow know each other? I seriously doubt that she meant it as an insult to either Tim or Christians, since I believe that she is Lutheran, and not known for acting out. I think that maybe some folks are too sensitive. Tim Tebow is a fine young man and a credit to his religion, his family, and his sport. I would think that all of that probably comes with a sense of humor to boot.

He probably attracted attention when he didn't hold the gun sideways.

Why don't ya just climb on up there and get it Mark? Seriously though, at a shopping mall? That's all he could find? Here's your sign, Robinson.

Discovery.com Scientific American Rumors abound of a 3.5 sigma and 2.5 sigma event that would be extremely strong evidence that the Higgs Boson, sometimes called the "God Particle" because it imparts mass to other objects, has been analyzed. Sigma is a probability of accuracy, and a 3.5 sigma event has only a 0.1% chance of being a fluke, and the 2,5 sigma only a 1% chance of being inaccurate. Together, these two events from two different and repeatable experiments are very promising. The existence of this particle would send the physics world into a frenzy and add meat to some very

It is a very large dose of a drug that an 11 or 13 year old quite likely has never had before in their life. Add that to the fact that the ability of a young teen to make rational decisions is certainly not up to that of an older child. It is reasonable to allow parental input into such a decision for girls under 17. Eleven to Sixteen year old's are not adults, they are not women, they are children, and "Plan B" is not a rubber.

Honestly, between Hiram and Braswell, you gotta wonder if there is something in the water.

Ouch! Mrs. LTD is a serial toe breaker. She likes to catch her small toe on obstacles like chair legs when she goes around a corner. She's not much better than your 12 year old. (Don't tell her that I said that )

Well it would take $7.50 in today's dollars to equal $1 back in 1962. Assuming, for a moment, that Upper Middle Class suburbia requires an income in the $80,000 to $120,000 range, then ol' Ward must have been pulling in $11,000 easy. One factor that this does NOT consider is that the usual trapping of UMC, that being the car and the house, cost far less then than CPI inflation would indicate. Today's cars and homes are far more sophisticated. There also weren't cell phones, cable TV, video games, and other trappings of modern life to spend money on when the Beav was a lad. Eating out an

I'm so sorry to hear this. May she rest in peace and may you eventually find comfort. -
FTC (There is probably a better source out there, I can't find the actual FTC report again. I saw it a couple of weeks ago. about USPS They are also talking about defaulting on their treasury loans if Congress doesn't give them about $7 billion to fund their retirement and disability programs as well as provide early retirement incentives. Smells like a bailout to me. Congress to debate Postal Legislation

How sad. Whomever did this should be hanged by their balls until dead. -
The USPS is authorized to receive compensation of $460 million per year for operating unprofitable post offices, although it hasn't requested that subsidy for several years. The FTC also said in a 2008 report that the USPS monopoly, their sovereign immunity and eminent domain powers, as well as their ability to borrow from the US Treasury at heavily discounted rates do indeed amount to a taxpayer subsidy. The cash value of these government granted privileges are supplemented by the fact that all competition for non critical first through third class mail is quashed. The FTC concluded tha

So this is what it's come down to. A 9 year old North Carolina student was suspended after a substitute teacher overheard him tell another student that he thought another teacher was cute. Cute? Really? WSOCtv

The largest one I ever saw live and in the wild was about 6 feet long. Believe me, he had the right of way on that trail. Snakes had better be green, black, gone, or dead.
