I get my information right from him. He routinely called for Jihad against America. Watch some of his videos, you'll see it for yourself. Also, he aligned himself with Al Qeida, who has declared war against us, and us against them. If someone joins and participates in a group that we are at war with, that makes them an enemy combatant in that war, and therefore fair game in wartime operations. The battlefield has changed since the 1800's. They used to line up, stand up and shoot each other back then, now we kill each other from miles away. Do you really think that during the Civil War, that if a group of soldiers travelling down the road met another opposing group, that they would make plans to meet back at the battlefield? No, they would fight it out right there. You take the battlefield to the battle, not the battle to the battlefield. Did the 9/11 attacks happen on a battlefield? I'm not sure what you mean by Lincoln, but I never mentioned him. My point was there were two sides of opposing US citizens at war against each other and neither side tried all the people they killed during the war. Besides, Lincoln wasn't the President of the South during the Civil War.

I found it on www.TVDuck.com. It's low-def and laden with advertisements around (but not in) the video, but at least you can see the full episode. I search for the show, and there are a few dozen links. I usually have to click several before I find one that works.

Thanks for the PM, WyattEarp. I persisted earlier in the season and found another feed from a different website. I'll keep your link as a backup.

I think there is already a precedent for this. He was a US citizen that declared war against the US, which in some ways is not unlike the Civil War, which was made up of US citizens declaring war against each other. Neither the North or South did not put on trial every combatant they killed. They may had if surrenders were given.

Google Voice is a free phone number from Google, that you link to any of the phones you may regularly use, like your cell, work, that cabin you are going to for the weekend, etc. When someone dial the Google number all of the phones ring at the same time, whichever one you answer from gets the call routed to you. The best thing is the caller only knows your Google number. In the Google account you can specify which numbers calling you should ring your phones, go straight to voicemail or just be blocked alltogether. It's an awesome tool and everyone should have a Google Voice number. There's lot of other cool features the account does too.

I'm 46 years old and have been camping all my like (first time was around three months old). I have been through a lot of tents in my years, but I currently am using a reasonably inexpensive Coleman dome tent, and I think it is as good as any other high dollar tent I've owned. It's not light or super compact, but for car camping it is great. It's a few years old and has held up well. I've weathered a lot of storms and it has kept me nice and dry. I would recommend it to anyone.

I like willis68's idea above where you ask the parents to get them their first knife. It might be a great opportunity for someone to do the passing of an old family knife on to a kid. Or it could be a cool experience for a parent or grandparent to buy and give the kid his first knife. For the kids who's parents don't take the opportunity, you can loan their kid a knife, or let them carve the soap with a butterknife from your kitchen. Regardless, it will be an outstanding opportunity to teach a bunch of young men about knife safety.

Also, everyone on the range must have a permit. You can get daily or yearly permits at the Norris police station. It's really pretty nice.

I second the Dave Ramsey ELP (Endorsed Local Providers) list. We started the Dave Ramsey plan several years ago. If you can find one of his Financial Peace University classes near you, you will be empowered to become your own financial planner. He explains many aspects of financial planning so that everyone can understand it. Then all you have to do is actually follow through and stay on plan. Get smart, then if you do get a financial planner you know what they are talking about and you can steer your own ship. You'll also have a better chance of realizing when they just want to help you get rid of some more of your money. It changed my life, and I've been able to help lots of others change theirs by passing on the knowledge.

Been a mixed bag for me. Some times I go in there and they are very helpful, other times not so much. I really think it's the person that helps you. The last time I was there I had some guy help me who thought he was a real comedian, I found him to be quite annoying and walked away. Their gunsmith was extremely helpful to me once and I would use him again. I have had some difficulty getting certain guns from them. Seems like they are frequently out of stock on the one I want, "but we can take your money now and order you one". I took that offer once. I've also bought a gun or two from their inventory. Personally, they often dissappoint me, but not enough to keep me from visiting.

My son used to go there a few years ago and did not have to have any kind of pass. It was just open to the public. I called them a time or two to get info or directions, and they never mentioned anything about needing a pass.

I went, but was very disappointed. For me it was mostly Knoxville saying "Look at us, see how prepared we are"? They had a Sherrif copter there, some ambulances, firefighters, etc. Not that that is bad, I was very impressed with all the cool stuff Knoxville has, but I was looking for more personal survival stuff. They had an inside area set up with maybe 15 tables for vendors. I saw the Blood bank, some investing company, a whole table advertising Glenn Beck's next speaking tour, and a few people selling food products. Of all the tables, I saw about three with things that I was expecting to see. One had a family water filtration device, one had a table full of bug out bag or emergency box type items, one had emergency food products. At least I got some nifty firefighter hats for the grandkids ;-)

I like the show. I saw it last year, when it looked like it was going to be a series but then only aired one episode. I was surprised to see it come back this year.

A freiend of mine got a virus I had to clean up, where the malware was actually a program that ran on top of the desktop. It has a fake start button, background and icons. Every time you tried to run something a pop-up came up and said something about the system needing reapir. It was pretty clever and had me stumped for a few minutes before I figured out what it was doing. If it had been by own PC, I would have noticed the overlay did not look like my own desktop. I cleaned it up with Malware Bytes. Had to download Malware Bytes from a different PC, put it on a thumbdrive, reboot the PC into safemode, install Malware Bytes and run the scan in safemode. It took a while to run the scan, but it fixed it right up.

OOH, OOH, Mr. Kotter

Reminder that this show is this weekend.

I liked it better when it was more of an X-Files type show, with something weird and unexplainable happening each week. Lately they've been doing this war with an alternate universe thing that's getting a little tiresome. I can't stop watching it though.

Most Malware can be avoided by doing a couple of simple things on your PC: 1. Don't run as Administrator. Make sure that the account you normally use to log into Windows is not in the Administrators group. Create a new account and use this one for daily use. Log in as Administrator when you are installing a new program or making system changes. An account with just "User" rights cannot install anything. Malware runs with whatever rights you are logged in as, so if you are an administrator, the malware has unlimited access, if you are logged in as a user the malware has very little ability to install itself. This is especially true if you are running an O/S prior to Windows 7. Win7 is architected a little different and will pop up a message asking for permission to install. Unfortunately, most people just click OK to the permission and give the malware access. 2. Get a good antivirus. If you are running Windows but are limited on funds there are plenty of free ones. Microsoft's Security Essentials is free, and I think works great. It is very bare-bones and does not have all the extra crap to bog down your system that goes along with some of the bigger brand names. Also, keep the Antivirus up to date. Set it to automatically update at least daily. 3. Use a firewall. Windows XP and above all come with one built in. Turn it on and use it. 4. Stay away from questionable web sites. Be skeptical of everything that pops up. For me, if a web site asks my permission for something, I cancel and move away. Just play it safe and stay on TGO. Do you really need to go anywhere else?

I've got another position to fill, so I thought I post here again. Same requirements as in my original post. Send me a PM if interested.

I found a ton of his songs on Grooveshark. I listened to Cash all day long at work yesterday. Didn't realize how much I like him. I particularly like the songs that tell a story.

In the 800cc or less size bike, you should be able to find something used in a decent price range. My first bike was a 500cc, and it was OK when I lived in Florida where it was flat, but once I moved to East TN, it couldn't cut it on the hills, especially with a passenger. The bike was also a bit too small with an adult passenger. If you are going to regularly have a passenger, make sure you both fit. I suspect that you may move up to a larger bike pretty quickly once you get the hang of it. For me, an 1100cc Cruiser is just right.

No, but I got four gallons of wine fermenting in my basement. My son has some friends that do beer regularly, and have helped him with a batch or two. He says it's a lot of work. The wine was pretty easy, but I'm betting it's going to taste like puddle water drained through an old boot. If it turns out even a little better than I expect, I may upgrade to some better equipment and start trying better recipes. I don't know if you use the little bubblers plugged into the top of your brewing containers. I find them to be very entertaining.

Man, I have done nearly everything in that video. The only thing I would have done differently, is leave the working vehicle in the garage, where I couldn't back it out. Seriously, this is why I don't work on cars anymore.

Anybody know of an online site to watch this? I missed the first episode. I checked casttv.com, which had them there last year, but only the pay-for amazon link is there.

Cops: Walmart shopper concealed 111 items
analog_kidd replied to Dolomite_supafly's topic in General Chat
My dad tells the story of when he worked at a grocery store once, and there was this older lady that everyone recognized by her large flambouyant hat. One day my dad noticed she was bleeding from her forehead. When he offered her help she got all flustered and started to run off. About that time her hat slipped and out fell a big old juicy steak from on top of her head. Turns out she was stealing them every time she came in.
