Thoughts from the Evil Galaxy

Nobody has any pasture land or an acre of woods for me to look thru??? If I find your Hooch Still or Pot Patch, I won't say nothin'....

With the storms coming this week-end and the weather warming up, I'm looking for places to go mushroom hunting next week. Areas with large hardwood stands and older horse pastures would be preferred (no, I'm not looking for magic mushrooms, those are easier to grow yourself these days with kits off the internet). Some place where people generally won't mind me milling around the property for a bit...

My brother is a Stay at Home Dad. If my wife made as much as I did I'd be a stay at home Dad too... :clapping:

I've seen them out in the woods and in other peoples houses, but I've never caught one in either of the houses I've lived in my whole life... The creepy crawlies seem to really like L64...

You can call the City or the County, which ever jurisdiction the offense occurred, then they can give you more accurate info. There is also an attorney who is a commerce member on here who may be able to give you advise on the situ...

A lot of the German WW2 helmets got bought back by GI's after the Second World War and the helmets started appearing on motorcyclist back in the 60's. Many of the helmets seen today are reproductions. "Nazi's" were a political organization, not the standing army. The "SS" were the, to some extent, military wing of the "Nazi's", you'll see the two side by side lightning insignia on the helmets for those who are trying to portray themselves as "white supremest" usually. The current US military helmet is also partially based on the German military helmets, not for anything political, but the

Somebody show up with a video of a water moccasin, living or dead. That'll settle the issue...

It's really a moot subject... One people's hero is another people's terrorist. Both sides can spin tales of great heroism and great evil, it swings both ways. It's all about who has the better propaganda, who's in control of the media, a persons point of view, the cult of personality and who writes the history books. Any figure in history can be a extremely subjective opinion. Joesph Stalin to this day still has a mass staunch supporters in Russia who regard him as the greatest hero who ever lived, even though he easily killed more innocent people under the Soviet government than Adolf Hi

It's not about changing the mindsets of people, it's about giving equality within society. I personally could care less what your mindset is on homosexuality, gay rights or legalized gay marriage...

I've got Firefox for the MAME, but sadly it was a LaserDisk game and it's poorly emulated, like most of the LaserDisk games. Dragons Lair however has such a big cult following you can actually play it on Emulators now...

In this day and age, everything is connected. Year's down the employment road you may find yourself crossing that boss working for your company or a company you're now doing work for, who happens to have a long memory. Also you always want to have good references for past employment. The boss you told to kiss your ass from 10 years ago might know you're future boss you're trying to get another job with... Burning bridges will always come back to bite you... Unless, of course, you just happen to win the Lottery. Then I plan on buying some time on a local station and naming of th

I haven't seen those around here in a long time. Harry's use to have them before Whole Foods bought them out and Harry's went to hell in a hand basket. There's a store over near Cumberland Mall that is a sort of "Farmers Market" that had a good bit of unusual pickled items, you might check there....

Best Advise has already been given. Don't Burn Bridges...

I was just at Arbor Place Mall Tuesday and commented on missing the old Arcades. I have collected a few of the old Arcade Cabinet Games (I have my favorite, a game called Rastan from 1987), but mostly they live on in Emulators and Collects Compilations on various console systems... but it's just not the same as playing the games in the Arcades. The last time I was down at Walt Disney World in Florida, they had a whole building dedicated to the Arcades of old with just about every Arcade Game in it. I spent a long while in there. It was $20 to get in, but all the games were free and you cou

It's one of the oldest hustles in the book, I've seen it too many times to count. A kid with his hand out is more likely to get some money rather than an adult and it may not even be an adult that put the kid up to hustle for money. I agree with what someone said earlier, sit back and watch the situ for a few minutes and see if it's legit. Then help if it is or report it to the gas station workers if it's not. Panhandling has been on the rise the past few years and has move further and further out into the suburbs...

I'd have been to the nearest store, bought the closest things I could to a boning knife, a couple of styro coolers, some plastic trash bags and carved him up within 20 minutes!!! It's a shame you couldn't keep him...

I'm calling bullcrap on this one. Look at the site the story is from... :nea:

Nope. Retailers charge you what the market allows. Items made here in the US, on par for quality, are almost the exact same for items made in overseas slave-wager factories. It's all about profit margins. Profit margins for items here in the US are lower because American Business Owners have to pay a minimum wage and maintain a safe work environment. Overseas, they don't. All they pay are bribes (which WalMart was caught doing both in Asia and Mexico) to the overseas plant owners and government inspectors to look the other way on such matters. 300 slaves die, Chinese manufactures taint

It's because people do not give a S-H-I-T about humanity unless it's in their backyard. The market is driven by greed and human suffering. The only reason these American Companies buy from these people is so they do not have to pay American Garment Workers minimum wage in this country. You know what's even worse? In most cases the items they sell, they charge the same amount for even if they had produced the items here in the US. A blouse is going to cost $50 whether it was made here by minimum wagers or there by slave wagers. And we allow this kind of behavior to exist! IF they

Oh my... I wonder where WalMart will get their Tshirts from to sell low low prices, but still make an obscene profit because they only cost pennies to produce with cheap slave labor. Seems one of the slave labor factories that WalMart buys their crud from and imports here to the US has collapsed killing 100 and injuring scores of others. But that's ok, that's the price of free enterprise here in the good ol' US of A, what's a few hundred or so poor people who work for near nothing wages. They're just uneducated trash that deserved what they got... right??? After all, if these people, livi

I remember we went to the Dallas Theater in 7th grade to watch "A Christmas Carol", that was before they expanded to two theaters. I didn't get to watch much of it though, by 7th grade I had discovered what girls were for and was too busy with my girlfriend behind the curtain that lined the walls... :lol:

What has to be remembered is that the restaurant industry is a cut throat business. People working for or affiliated with other restaurants will jump at the chance to drag a rival restaurant's name through the mud, especially with low health scores (even though their restaurant may have an equally low score). Yes there will always be somebody who had a bad experience, or just pretty much likes being the negative nelly in a crowd, but health scores are a tricky thing sometimes and just as often might not be reflective of the actually food quality. We all know MickeyD's can have some of the m

Especially if you have no interest in going into the store. But when a community actively harasses a store owner because they choose to have their store open on Sunday with practices they do not use on stores who are not open on Sunday, that is discrimination and marginalization...

...and there's nothing wrong with any of that. Because that's what it SHOULD be, A CHOICE. Not a dictum of a community to be enforced through either community pressure, intimidation, marginalization or Law and Legislation. Unfortunately in many cases to this very day, Utopian Idealisms, Religious Dogma and Political manipulation are the rule, not the exception, for local community leaders who still seek to create some kind of "Better Society" with their religious interpretations with these kinds of practices... The only CHOICE people who oppose these kinds of community practices and la
