  1. Unlike some states, Tennessee doesn't charge any fees or taxes for moving a vehicle you already own into the state. As far as I know, you only pay $10 for an emissions test (where required) and the typical registration/license plate fee. I think some areas have a wheel tax, but I'm not sure if that's included in the other fees mentioned. Here in Sumner County, the total is $75, plus the $10 for the emissions test.

  2. As i see it, there are two reasons why we always seem to have budget issues within ot school systems. First of all, schools are operated by the government. Secondly, there are far too many loser parents out there who either simply can't afford to have children (another reason why more people should have abortions), or they'd rather spend money on b*** s*** like cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, car payments, cable TV, internet, or any other b*** s*** they shouldn't be buying (and another reason why more people should have abortions). I wouldn't be surprised if 50% or more of the students are receiving free or reduced lunches through the school system. Not only that, but when students receive free or reduced lunches, they automatically receive a whole host of other freebies and discounts throughout the year. This includes things like field trips, year books, etc. As a paying parent, I know exactly how much this can add up to per student. As far as the teachers go, I couldn't be one (which is why I chose a different profession), but it's not easy for me to feel sorry for them. I'm sure some things differ from district to district, but based on the numbers here is Sumner County, teachers are off roughly 16 weeks (4 months) per year. This is taking into account things like vacation time, personal leave, sick time, holidays, spring break, fall break, summer break. That doesn't account for other possible paid days off. Other than politicians, who else get that's kind of time off? The average salary for a Sumner County teacher is $41,406 per year. If you devide that salary by 8 months, that's $5,175 per month. Multiply that by 12 months, you come up with an average salary of $62,100 per year. Not oo shabby, if you ask me. You can nit-pick the actual number of days off, but I don't think it's very far off either way. My neighbor is a teacher, and she spent almost the entire summer between Arizona and Spain. A friend of mine is married to a teacher, and she spent almost the entire summer traveling the U.S. selling her artwork.
  3. Because there's always at least one in the bunch with a big mouth. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  4. My girlfriend and I witnessed a co-worker of hers and his wife/girlfriend get denied while trying to purchase two Hi Points at the Hendersonville Gun Show. A couple months later, while I was at her place of employment, he came up to me and asked if I would sell him a gun. After him reassuring me that he wasn't going to shoot anyone or rob a bank, I informed him that I had only one gun and couldn't sell it. And yes, he looked like the poster child for thugs.

  5. Like anything else run by the government, schools are poorly run and money is managed just as poorly. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  6. My daughter is in the 8th grade here in Hendersonville. The fees were $45 this year. I wouldn't be surprised to get a note asking for more, once Sumner County actually decides to go back to school. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  7. Thank all of you for the helpful information. We are currently in the process of counteroffering the counteroffer. I'm confident we will have a deal today or tomorrow. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  8. I'm sorry this has happened to you, but I've never understood why people leave firearms in their vehicles while at home. I understand that you may have no choice if you're out and about, but while at home? I hope you get you items back. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  9. Agreed. I think your numbers are very close. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  10. Did he do a custom barrel bend, in order to give it that high and right look? Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  11. Most people are too scared and spoiled to make any real sacrifice for the betterment of society as a whole. They are afraid of losing what little they have. The same "stuff" they can't take with them anyway. This is something that's a little difficult to understand, especially when so many claim to be God-fearing Christians. There should be nothing to be afraid of. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  12. Although it is legal to sell automatic knives on this forum, I'm fairly certain it is against TGO's TOS to partake in third-party sales. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  13. Sickening, on so many levels. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  14. Yes, he realtor has been helping me along the way. As wonderful and helpful as she's been, I can't help but assume she has her best interest in mind. She has recommended someone from F&M mortgage in Mt. Juliet. She has also recommended a home inspector. The problem is, I'm not the most trusting guy, so it's always in the back of my mind that they are all working together, not making decisions that are in my best interest.

  15. Where do you live? I have a Sentry safe with an electronic keypad, but it came with a skeleton key, just in case. I'm not sure if it will work for yours, but if you're close enough, I'll be more than happy to let you try it. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  16. As a first-time homebuyer, I'm trying to gather some information about mortgage brokers/lenders that you would recommend, and others you'd suggest staying away from. Also, from those with experience, what is the best way to shop around for the best mortgage deal. If it matters, I'm in the Nashville/Hendersonville area. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  17. The fact the "the majority" voted for Obama should be enough evidence that the majority isn't what it's all cracked up to be. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2

  19. If my calculations are correct, during the last 200 years or so, there's been roughly twice as many Republican presidents as Democrat presidents. Why is our country in such bad shape when the Republicans have had so much control? Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  20. Voting for "the lesser of two evils" is the cowards way out, in my humble opinion. Just like I refuse to reward negative behavior of my child's, no matter how inconvenienced I may be, I refuse to reward either of these lying scum with my vote for the presidency. I am prepared for this downward spiral which our country is in to come to a crashing and burning end. I am convinced the only way we will once again become a great nation is to start over from scratch. I am prepared and unafraid. I refuse to set aside my convictions for fear of evil, the lesser or otherwise. We, as spoiled Americans, have allowed our once great nation to be overtaken by the devil of many disguises. Now it is our duty to bring her back. You'll not convince me that continuing down the same roads will accomplish that goal. We cannot continue to treat our elections as a 'may the best liar win', contest. And that is exactly what a majority of you are doing. You look just as stupid as the asshats you are voting for. As I think I've said in the past, at this point in time, I am certain many of you would vote for a convicted child molester, if you thought it would be best way to keep Obama from getting re-elected.
  21. You and me both. But based on the amount of people who had the time to spend hours in line waiting for chicken nuggets at the Chick-fil-A's around the country, there is obviously no shortage of people with plenty of time on their hands. That, or my place of employment is screwing me with this lousy 30-minute lunch break.
  22. So true. Sadly, most of America has their head burried up their spoiled asses, or are too scared of being chastised for their honest opinions regarding the true condition of our country. Political correctness can suck my ****! If that makes me less than patriotic, so be it.
  23. Why? Simply because he ventured into being more open about his country music roots? Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  24. Call it 'A Million Man Carry March Against Gays', and you'll have a much better chance of reaching numbers even remotely close to one-million. Otherwise most will sit by while gun rights are stripped away. Its happened before without any real fight, and it's likely to happen again. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
  25. If all you straight people would stop breeding like rabbits and/or have more abortions, there would be less gay people in the world. Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
