  1. Interesting choice of analogy. The analogy I left off my last post was eerily similar. Here: While a man can hear hours of first-person stories about a woman's experience of pregnancy, he will never really understand what it is like to carry a baby. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  2. Well, I really cannot see where you gathered the understanding of which you speak. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  3. I am sorry, but were you ever directly involved in any actions, anywhere, at any time? mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  4. So her past articles should dictate to us that the following things never happened? --In Madison, Wis., someone burned an 8-foot-by-8-foot Nazi swastika on a homeowner's lawn, which had been decorated with Bush-Cheney signs. The vandals used grass killer to spray the hate symbol (it's OK, Bush-hating trumps environmentalism). Several other homes nearby were vandalized. --In Orlando, Fla., Democrats stormed the local Bush/Cheney headquarters, and the ensuing melee resulted in physical injuries to at least two Republican campaign workers. The liberal protesters justified their actions -- including ramming the head of one of the workers into an office door -- by blaming President Bush's "negative campaign." --In Knoxville, Tenn., someone shot into the Bush/Cheney headquarters. --Shots were also fired into Bush/Cheney offices in Huntington, W. Va., and Florida. --The GOP office in Gallatin County, Mont., was vandalized twice in less than a week. --Republican offices in the Seattle area, Spokane, Wash., Canton, Ohio, Fairbanks, Alaska, and Edwardsville, Ill., have also been burglarized and/or vandalized. --On an Alaska-bound flight, a drunken Kerry supporter went ballistic after harassing a female Bush supporter and refusing to calm down at the request of flight attendants. --In Gainesville, Fla., police arrested a Democrat accused of punching the chairman of the Alachua County Republican Executive Committee in the face at the town Republican headquarters. The accused, David McCally, also punched a life-sized, cardboard cutout of President George Bush. McCally is a community college instructor whose specialty is social and behavioral sciences. According to the GOP chairman, Travis Horn, McCally hurled obscenities at him before the assault. "He proceeded to say how he had a Ph.D., and he was smarter than me. I'm a stupid Republican." mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  5. From here mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  6. Wow, everybody's going off and the story is yet to be written... Yes it's about Kerry and those prisoners of war he affected, but Kerry was also invited to participate in this "unscripted" program. From the Sinclair Broadcast Group webpage: There's another story on the subject on MSNBC that goes into more detail on the Smiths and their company. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  7. I've had a few issues and have seen a few more on friend's rigs. I believe the culprit to have been the closing pin. I have seen two different patterns of curved closing pins out there. One is a continuous curve from the ring to the tip, while the other has more of a straight area below the ring, which gradually increases in curve. On the latter types, I have picked up packed rigs by their bridle when the pin is fully seated. It seems this straight area will cantilever against the grommet, thereby compounding the force needed for extraction. These latter pins also tended to be rougher on the surface than the former. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  8. Is it just me, or does this snippet state a claim without any qualified substantiation? Kinda like "People prefer light beer...blah, blah, blah...People consumed 4,000,000 gallons of beer in 2003. Of that, 1,800,000 gallons were consumed by women and children..." Where did the light beer claim come from? mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  9. clicky http://lexrex.com/enlightened/articles/warisaracket.htm I know it's off topic, but I can't stop wondering: How much foot odor can patchouli cover up in a pair of Birkinstocks? mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  10. With all the pseudo-conservatives and RINOs in the Senate, I doubt it has a chance. I guess it just echos how much more in touch with reality the House tends to be over the Senate. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  11. oops, missed that. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  12. More interesting gun news... It seems some folks are finally figuring out that gun control is absolutely worthless. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  13. I am not sure how long this has been in the works. I just found out about it this morning. An "official" announcement should be forthcoming. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  14. NRA's EVP Wayne LaPierre will be debating UN Gun-Ban Queen Rebecca Peters on the possible US Senate ratification of a proposed UN treaty to ban the private ownership of firearms.

  15. Thanks for clarifying. I wonder why they don't use a spray-on/bake-on Teflon/Moly coating instead of plating. It's got built-in lubricity and it totally protects the metal. Hmmmm...
  16. I am all about a long recovery arc, but for someone just starting out, I believe a bigger canopy (=/
  17. Anodized? You have aluminum hardware on your rig? The thought of that sketches me out, especially on my one-shot container. I have heard that nickle-steel is stronger than stainless steel, but both are considerably stronger than aluminum alloy. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  18. Huh? mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  19. Did I miss something somewhere? mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  20. I am quite confident that they were hired by a government agency to do whatever it was they were doing over there. I know for fact that at least one government agency was actively recruiting *civilians* in late 01 through at least mid-02. The types they were scouting were well-trained ex-military with a certain *profile,* who would be able to operate in Afghanistan with little or no support for extended periods of time. I was told these *civilians* would be working independently or in small teams. I am surprised these guys are talking as much as they are, but it seems they are getting fucked in both directions. That part doesn't surprise me. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  21. I consider my firearm to be my real-life AAD. Not something I would rely on, but it might certainly save my life someday, as it has for millions of others. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  22. Well, I believe the best fairy dust would be the dust that eliminated the inborn propensity toward violence among human beings. Without violence, there'd be no need for any weapons, other than to work on tighter groups in competition. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  23. Crime has reduced on the whole in this country. For dramatic reductions in crime, look at a city such as Richmond, VA, which has been effected by the passage of Project Exile and liberal concealed carry laws. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
  24. Yet another fine example of how draconian gun control laws do nothing to effect crime, other than promote their rates. mike Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills--You know, like nunchuk skills, bow-hunting skills, computer-hacking skills.
