good luck finding a used Kadet kit at a reasonable price...I haven't had any luck at all finding one that isn't practically the same price as a new one...and I've been looking for years

I like the sauce selection at Firehouse Subs. They have a proprietary numbering system to indicate heat. To me the best flavors come from #7 and below. If you get any hotter, the heat destroys my taste buds and I'm left not tasting anything. Otherwise, I love spice food too.

So, check this out...I just discovered something... Back in season 4, Hank was over at Walt and Skyler's for dinner and was kind of hiding in the bedroom looking at the evidence file from Gale's murder. Walt comes in as sees what he's doing and tries to leave, but Hank asks him about the chemical process in the lab notes. Hank reads the W.W. dedication from Gale's lab notes ("To W.W. My star, My Perfect Silence") out loud and starts guessing names that fit the initials. After guessing Woodrow Wilson, Hank says "Walter White" and Walt panics. He's looking through the notebook and finds the "When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer" poem and the pic of Whitman in the back and explains the W.W. reference, ending the conversation. This site, http://www.amctv.com...her-case-file, has an awesome interactive look at the notebook. The book Hank finds on the back of the toilet was a gift from Gale to Walt. In several episodes, Walt was sitting around in plain site reading it. Hank had never seen it before, so Walt could have torn that page out, but......... What I didn't realize until I just re-watched that part is the pages were stuck together. It made a distinct sound when Hank separated them. So Walt surely didn't know it was inscribed from Gale. He's WAY too smart for that. The inscription ("To W.W. From G.B.) is written in the same exact block letter handwriting that appears in Gale's lab notes. So, there's no way to deny that link now.

I have a Mark II that I'd NEVER part with, but I've considered adding one of those 2. I've been thinking of trying the 22/45, since it's more different than the Mark II/III. Glad to hear yo like yours.

I love spicy food. In fact, the waiter at the Thai restaurant calls me crazy for ordering my panang beef so hot. So when my friend, who grows bhut jolokia peppers, brought one to work, my hubris got me in trouble. I was foolish enough to put a piece of the flesh (not the seeds or the pith, which are much hotter, mind you) on my tongue and closed my mouth to let the saliva begin to work it's way around. In all, I'd guess around 4-5 seconds. This tiny little piece of pepper was about half the size of an apple seed. IT LIT ME UP LIKE A PINBALL MACHINE! It took me the better part of 2 hours before the numbness and burning went away, but my manhood has never recovered.

I think it looks a lot more like a wolf than a dog. Whatever it is, it's beautiful!

Pedophile priests use the "I am as God made me" excuse too. By that same argument in a theocratic society, someone might use a "natural-born killer" excuse some day. Fortunately for our society, both crimes have victims and that is not allowed to be used as an excuse! I like steak and fried taters and eat too much of each whenever I get a chance. I don't blame God for making me fat, because I like both too much. I know I shouldn't overindulge in either. There's way more scientific support for the existence of "fat genes" than there are "gay genes", but I don't agree with either.

I wish we could garner as much support (not laws, mind you) against wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony as we do against gay marriage. I feel we Christians often pick out battles unwisely at some times. There's way worse things going on out there than 2 homos shacking up. To be fair...the sloths and gluttons of the world aren't pushing their "sins" in our face demanding acceptance. It wasn't too long ago that women and blacks didn't have all the rights they do now. It took this country a while to get it's act together, but in the end, they got the equality they deserved all along. However, both groups still claim to be oppressed in some way and say most of America is still sexist and/or racist. With gays, they already have all the individual rights, but not the "couples rights". Will gay marriage really end all their "problems" or will America still be homophobic long after equality is legislated?

Sons of Anarchy returns next Tuesday too! Dexter comes back in about 4 weeks too. But, Breaking Bad is some tough shoes to fill.

I have strong religious beliefs against homosexuality and gay marriage. I also believe that lying, stealing, murder, and many other things are wrong, too. The fact that some of these things are illegal and others are not makes no difference. I'm not against murder because it's illegal. I'm against it because it's wrong based on my Christian upbringing. That doesn't mean everything I believe is wrong should be illegal and it doesn't mean everything I believe is right should hold the power of law either. If it did, blasphemy would be illegal and being truly repentant would get you out of jail. So, I believe that gays should be allowed every privilege under the law that I have and that the government should not honor Church marriages. We should all have to get civil unions to appease the government in order to get all the benefits they dole out to get our votes. Likewise, I'll get married in a church, if want all the benefits God doles out.

Hank was reading Gale's journal and it mentioned working with WW. That's what the flashback was about...Hank and Walt discussing the possible WW's that it could refer to. I can't believe Walt would leave that page in the book after having that conversation with Hank. That was as good a cliff-hanger as I've EVER seen! Love that look on Hank's face when he "got it".

I think Chuck and his wife have been good ambassadors for conservatism in general. I'd like to see him run for office.

Hank was a hot shot at one time or they wouldn't have sent him to TX that one time or given him the big promotion. I bet his arrest rate has really slumped since he's been after the blue meth ring.
-
well, crap! I didn't even think about the possibility of Hank's boss being dirty. Even if it's not true, it's something to think about. Before Fring even got offed there was some pressure to wrap up the case or drop it, now that I think about it.

I had the misfortune of being a know-it-all teenager when most of my elders passed. I missed out on most of their wisdom when I needed it the most. I found listening to Mr. Eastwood entertaining and enlightening. Sure it had it's moments that were uncomfortable, but not every spoonful of soup has a piece of meat in it.

Excellent point peejman! This is what bugs about the young Earth creationists that believe the Earth is somewhere b/w 5K and 10K years old. They seemingly adopt this belief despite scientific evidence to the contrary and base their stance solely on literal translations of the Bible. Often anti-creationists use this to refute Creationism in general, since it seem clear that Earth is MUCH older than that. IIRC this goes back to the simile used in 2 Peter 3:8 to explain the timelessness of God. Peter basically explained not to sit around waiting for "the end" at a promised time, because a thousand years is like a day to God and a day is like a thousand years. But, is it a thousand or a million or a billion or even a fraction of one? The point is we can never fathom his timeline, which may sound like a convenient loophole to Atheists, but that's the nature of religious faith.

This is a fascinating debate and I've learned a lot. However, nothing has changed my opinion, yet, but I'm keeping an open mind. It seems the big bang theory of creation and the evolution theory of the origins of life go hand in hand. One attempts to explain the origins of the universe the other the origins of life as we know it. However, both seem incomplete explanations, relying on the faith that "it was just there" as the jumping off point. I find that leap of faith no more believable than saying God made the mattter and made it go bang and that God made life and caused/allowed it to change over time to fufill his design. I do agree that one is science and the other is theological from that point forward, but any scientific teaching of evolution/big bang should include the admission that just like in Creationism, "we cannot prove where the stuff that went bang came from and the stuff that evolved came from". For the record, there are some outright lies about one statistic. Gallup and other polls seem to indicate that as much as some hate to admit it, far, far more people believe in God than do not. The attacks on all the details in the Holy Bible seem not to have affected peoples' faith over the decades.

that is a fantastic gadget, my wife is gonna kill me, but how was I supposed to know I needed one? -
Good points, I guess I may have underestimated how many threats know he is Heisenberg.

Cool premise, I hope he gets millions of visitors.

Is that Timney trigger a drop in part or was major modifactions necessary? Enquiring minds would like to know.

I'm sure there's an anti-gun liberal out there that would hate that pic, which makes me happy. BTW...she is cute as a button.

I don't see why Walt (or should we be calling him Heisenberg now that he's fully evolved?) feels he needs to worry about Mike's people. They only knew Gus and Mike. They may have known there was a Heisenberg, but NO WAY they knew it was Walt. His only 3 remaining "threats" are Skyler, Lydia, and Jesse.
