  1. I've been watching this play out, popcorn in hand. I've ridden a time or two in a pack ;) There is certain protocol that is followed in a normal formation. This is strictly for the protection of the riders. This was NOT a formation ride. The riders did nearly everything wrong. Having ridden drag and blocked for a pack, distance is your friend and reduce speed slowly and evenly to allow space. Dart and drag is a bad plan. That being said, If the guy had rolled down his window informed everyone that he was calling an ambulance after the first contact, it most likely would have ended without the ass whipping. Once the driver bulldozes and runs, the game changes. You know have more people pissed and a high (ish) speed chase isn't going to calm anyone down. It was a mess from start to finish...not to say I've never charged a cager a mirror tax for doing something stupid..

    ACA was voted on by both the House and Senate, signed into law by the President. Challenged by the Tea Party and confirmed as Constitutional by the Supreme Court.

    It's the LAW. It's been vetted by the checks and balances system



    Cool-then implement completely, on the original schedule, with no deferrals or exemptions. I've sent my congressmen letters informing them that, under those conditions, they should not stand in the way.

  3. You do remember that the SC upheld it narrowly based on the Fed's power to tax. You do remember that for the entire pre-vote pitch the administration denied that it was a tax and if it hadn't been shoehorned into that definition it wouldn't have been upheld by the SC.
    Not an exact 'the people have spoken' resounding endorsement by any account.

    Well, anything that slowed the kids down, even a little bit, from using a gun to commit the crime -may- have given them second thoughts about committing the crime.




    So now you're in favor of capital punishment for minors?

  5. What artistic composition-that pic makes even you look OK. You should tip that talented photographer. Hey-sorry I didn't get to see ya'll again. I gave Saylor a ton of stickers to hand out. Have a safe return trip

  7. Trolling? You spent more than the 4 minutes it would have taken to watch touting your lack of time. You miss the tone and delivery if it is just text.
    A message you can't refute, a messenger that your canned insults don't fit. Just admit that you're scared to take this one head on.

    THAT, my friend, is not an Obama issue. THAT is a "Patriot Act" issue.




    Granted I'm a little short on time, but a cursory search for the news of Obama repealing the patriot act came up empty. In my current position I had about a month where I could blame my predicessor for issues. After that, it was my baby. Granted, this is on a larger scale-but really-eventually you got to take responsibility for your job.

    Gee...



    It took until today for him to mention that he offered to give her a tandem ride. Is that secret airshow code for something? :P


    If it were a secret code we couldn't tell you...not saying that it is, just that we couldn't tell you. :)101 days to Oshkosh

  10. I talked to Freddie a few days ago and he was excited about the trip and the upcoming airshow season. I told him that I would come visit after we got Sun-N-Fun behind us...just like I told him last year and it never happened. :( I'm going to miss answering my phone and hearing "Hey brother, I need a favor"

    Hey brother, we'll keep and eye on Susan and the kids for you-Blue Skies

    So perhaps we should be a little more strict on the guns.



    Gee-I've owned at least one gun since I was 13. I started driving at 15. Despite the two year lead time I've had quite a few vehicle accidents and zero gun accidents and never tried to intentionally harm another with either one.
    I respect your right to be unarmed and you're just going to have to deal with the fact that as long as I'm alive and not locked up, I'll have a firearm.
