  1. Reading this referenced article is quite interesting...and listening to the comments of others makes me think we're raising a generation of wussies! I am surprised that there aren't articles written against "catch and release" fishing, extolling the horror the poor fish must face with all those hook marks in their tender little mouths...oh the inhumanity of using actual "hooks" baited with food to entice a poor unsuspecting little fish to feed...then to jerk him up from his precious habitat into a big boat with a fisherman having the nerve to actually pick the critter up by his gills and t
  2. Realizing that it's really none of my business, but you opened this topic... and I see that there have been only a few comments so far...I think it's pretty interesting that you, or anyone else for that matter, would let something like this bother you... Actually Yellow Tail wines are excellent and reasonably priced... If you let company positions and actor comments influence your enjoyment...then pretty soon all you will be able to eat or drink is what you personally kill and the wine that you ferment yourself?? Fried squirrel and elderberry wine will get kind of old after a while
  3. Most definitely....every outlet that is near a faucet should have GFCI protection...
  4. Great job detailing my coupe... Went home, got out the car cover, threw it on the car...it slid off the hood ant onto the floor. Great Job!!
  5. I think you should let me sample all of them before you announce your specials... I could be...OSS Oficial - Special - Sampler....
  6. Looking to add a bit of "Professionalism" to their food demonstrations. What is wrong with that? The company that produces the product most likely wants and expects that their product is demonstrated by someone who can answer questions and promote their product.
  7. I mis-spoke with my series comment...I am glad you knew what I meant, as opposed to MR.WIZARD Of course outlets wired in series would cause a huge voltage drop....Duh! Electrical contractors who use a single GFCI in a bathroom to protect multiple outlets are wiring your house on the cheap! However I beg to differ with your example...there is no + or - in AC only in DC. You have "Hot" and "Neutral" neither of which is considered + or - Oh, and by the way...just for the record--A GFCI is quite a bit more than an outlet with a circuit breaker built in. A circuit breaker i
  8. I agree... Outlets wired in series and that are 'downstream' of the GFCI outlet are protected. So...if both your bathroom outlets are not live...then either the GFCI receptical is tripped, the GF Breaker in your panel is tripped...or one of them is defective (highly unlikely). If resetting these do not solve the problem...call an electrician!
  9. Don't need the Steam Cleaning Don't need the Carpet shampoo How much for a hand wash (no pressure washing)polish, hand wax and buff Corvette C-5?
  10. We would not be in the financial mess we're in now!!! http://www.forbes.com/2010/01/20/fact-and-comment-opinions-steve-forbes.html The Day we allowed the banks to become Insurance Brokers, Stock Brokers, and to dabble in all other kinds of financial shenanigans was the day we actually started down this very steep and loosely graveled road in a buggy without brakes! What we have is a Hearse with Tim Geithner and Barney Frank up front and the US Economy in the back. Lord help us.....
  11. If moss is on the South side of the tree...it's gonna be a cold winter.
  12. You are sooo welcome. I put up the poll before acknowledging that I had shopped with you (didn't want to slant the poll) I was the 'Bearded' guy who stopped by on Wednesday about 2:30 and took home a "Sampler Platter"...my family loved the Eclairs, Creme Horn and the puff pasteries. I really wanted to buy more... I have already spread the word at the office...lots of them drive by your store everyday....I want a commission... Great Stuff!!! QS
  13. And we hear that the TSA will be UNIONIZED!! Being UNIONIZED will make these folks feel even more empowered!! Air Travel has become drudgery... http://www.philly.com/philly/news/local/20100121_Daniel_Rubin__It_was_no_joke_at_security_gate.html
  14. I am so sorry...I should have realized from your first comment. You were educated in Public School weren't you? Just for the record...here is my original post on this topic: Posted Yesterday, 08:10 AM Nothing...absolutely nothing. Why should we care about this??? Now here is where you need to focus.... Are you ready? Are you sure? OK then it was the post by MsGAStorm that began the "TERRORIST" thread: "They should be made a example of, otherwise terrorists will start thinking that they can just walk into the white house right up to the president."
  15. Well Eym_Serious, Such an intellectual you are to point this out. But you see, in the BIG Scheme of things, the White House gate crashers, as they're being called, got in simply because this administration has become so lax that the security around our White House will allow someone without credentials to enter during a party. I think the real cause IS the fact that we have such nincompoops (is that correct?) surrounding the coffers. Yes the real problem IS Congress and their total lack of understanding... So Focus this!
  16. I was wondering the same thing? But then I realized I was on Paulding.com...Duh!
  17. This should really make you happy.... http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100120/ap_on_bi_ge/us_congress_debt_limit_11 You can always count on Max Baucus to say something...brilliant: "We have gone to the restaurant. We have eaten the meal. Now the only question is whether we will pay the check," said Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont. "We simply must do so."
  18. French Fries, a salad and a dessert for $6.95...that's a pretty good deal. Fries are usually $2.00 A salad is at least $2.75 Most desserts are at least $3.00 Even if you drank water with your meal...it would still be over $7.50... What kind of steak did you expect for $6.95 anyway...Even a burger fries and coke is $4.00+ at McDonalds! A "Hamburger" steak with fries is at least $6.00 most places...
  19. So you agree with how things are going so far? You are pleased with Congress' handling of the economy? You are happy with the Health Care Bill as it is written? You think that waiting for months to act upon the needs of our troops who are in harms way was the right choice? You think the Billion$ of Dollar$ being spent friviously is being a good steward of our tax dollars? You feel that you are being fairly represented? You do not oppose the Billions of dollars we owe each day on our National Debt? You are fine with the way the President and Congress have handled the
  20. Terrorists? TERRORISTS are ALREADY IN the White House!! Haven't you seen Nancy Pelosi... Haven't you seen Harry Reid... And we can't forget about- Rahm Imanuel, David Axlerod, Valerie Jarrett, Kathleen Sebelius etc. Or these winners: Christina Romer, Melody Barnes, Larry Summers, Janet Napolitano and Peter Orszag And of course the marvelous Press Secretary: Robert 'Bubba' Gibbs AKA; Mrs. Doubtfire. And just outside the gates within arms reach; Max Baucus, Barbara Boxer, Roland Burris, Chris Dodd, Dianne Feinstein, Al Frankin, John Kerry.... Yes Virginia...Th
  21. Give my house to the kids.... Sell everything else at a huge yard sale... Put $500K in a college fund for the grandkids... Then move where nooo-body could find me...Maybe Italy, or Spain...Malta would be nice. Buy a big expensive Yacht, hire a crew and tell everybody to...KIZZ MY BUTT!
  22. Nothing...absolutely nothing. Why should we care about this???
