Spyderbot for those tough approaches: Bots are aid!!!

When the Generals Talk -Midnight Oil Up there on the platform He is speaking to the people The people are responding With clapping and a'cheering But the meaning of the message Not revealed to those assembled They're taken for a ride Taken In his stride When the Generals talk You better listen to him When the Generals talk You better do what he say There's a rumour in the ranking Someone's talking insurrection So the General has a purge 'Cos he wants to win elections With the certain satisfaction That the people are appeased Long live the revoluton The General's very pleased Sitting on the fence both ears to the ground The fat cats still push the thin cats around (Hirst/Moginie/Garrett)

Sweet! Now we can get back to the Michael Jackson trail 24/7!

Only you can save Toby!

Found this article yesterday while searching the topic - religions leaders overall are divided on the whole topic.

More from Slate - the assessment being that the federal govt. has no position in what is a state decision (regarding a family/domestic matter). 15 years. Let her die and have some peace. Where is the dignity of a human life (and a human death) when her case is being dragged out in the media, courts, and legislative halls? We don't know what is going on in Terri's mind, but after this time, what humanity does she have - what does she have to give? Whatever purpose her parents have for keeping her alive after the likelihood of her regaining some semblance of a consciousness has faded to beyond a mere glimmer seems to be for themselves, no longer for Terri, and that purpose would be better taken up quietly, and privately, with a counselor or a cleric, not a judge.

Hi, my name is Bambi, and I have a chewing gum problem...

$80K a year

I have a set of 3 happily gathering dust in the bottom of my gear box - I used them sume until I got equivalent small cams. Took a few falls on them with mixed success - I'd say go with small cams and lowe balls or similar for equivalent sizes.

A hunter sees a movement in the brush and fires, realizing too late that it is his hunting partner. He loads his partner into his pickup and heads to the nearest hospital, where the staff rolls his partner into the emergency room. After a while, the doctor steps out of the operating room. "Will he make it, Doc?' asks the hunter. "Well," replied the doctor, "we tried our best to save him, but it really would have helped if you hadn't field-dressed him first."

Only if split open like Han Solo did to the tauntaun -

Mary Mother of God! That's several women!

Looking for a ride to/from the mudpile this weekend - I've got a partner lined up down there, but the carpool filled up. Will split gas, fair conversationalist, reasonable personal hygeine.

Flying is simply falling down and missing the ground

Went round and round with a ticket person when flying to TX. Finally told her if TSA wanted to remove it, they could. - for my white gas stove, I removed the fuel, aired out the bottle and left it loose in my checked luggage. The pump was placed in its storage bag bag with the stove in checked luggage. And no questions asked on my return flight, so it depends on the ticket agent.

According to authorities, the cat was later apprehended in North Dakota, where he is being held pending formal charges.

Remember, when your cat misbehaves, the quickest way to correct the behavior is squirting the cat with a squirt bottle while firmly saying, "No!" "Bad cat! No! Put down the Glock! (squirt-squirt) No!"

Anyone know of an on-line retailer still carrying any stock of Cobras? I found a Brit page last week, but can't locate it again - looking for size 38/38.5.

I've got a Cordless which I like for its density (now Revolution) - I'm not sure how the redesign with the velco closures will hold up - I prefer the metal hook/buckles on mine. I understand that the Globe pad is similar in quality and density to the Cordless, for a bit less, although it has some nice detailing like reinforced corners. I did notice a Pagan pad on Overstock.com for $100 - It is a bi-fold design, rather than a taco-fold, so will have the flat spot at the seam between the 2 pad halves.

Get a different doctor. I had ACL work done a few years ago in January, and was climbing in June-July. Seriously, tho' - if you haven't gotten set up with PT, do so now. I don't remember the exact dynamics of the healing/ligament replacement process, but about 3 mo. out is when your body is building a new ligament from the donor tendon in the knee, so working on knee stability and overall balance now is critical. Besides working strength and balance, the most important thing that PT can do is help your body-mind trust the joint so you don't overcompensate elsewhere, creating other injuries, or re-injuring the same location. So get a referral to a PT who knows active sports well and can pace your recovery and get you healthy for the season.
