you lose points for not even posting a link. What am I supposed to do? Copy and paste that shit? I'm a busy man

$15,000 a month???!! And that's a "reduced salary." For "doing nothing," according to the McCain camp. Riiiiiight. The straight-talk express sure runs a tight ship

Great! Thanks man Is there any way you can make the "active topics" vs "active posts" sticky so I don't have to keep switching to active topics every time I check out the past 24hrs function? Any way to make the "with spray/without spray" sticky? thanks again

why the hell aren't they using that 700 billion bailout to get lenders to refinance these rediculous mortgages to something the mortgage holder can actually pay? THAT would be something that really helps main street USA. The lender refinances, the mortgage-holder keeps his house, and uncle sam makes up the difference. Everyone is happy. Is that a dumb idea or something? Instead we just buy a bunch of financial toxic waste to make sure the fat cats don't lose any weight? Fucking bullshit. OF COURSE congress will approve this shit. They always bitch about Bush, but they sure never lift a finger to stand in his way.

Really? Sounds plausible, but I'm not sure I've heard of any, let alone "lots"

Sweet! I want to get on it

I'd like my past24 hour search to include spray topics too! Can you put my link back? But this time can you put it above the ads?

I'll try. Under 30: both over 50: guns. They have pills for that, Bill.

I totally should have kept driving. He was so frantic though, i thought maybe he was in trouble. He had no car or anything and it looked like he was trying to just get ANYONE's attention.

I wonder if my life is coming to that. I'm hoping eveything will start fresh January 1st. I'll be 30 -- a new decade. If I get drunk enough new years eve, think I can purge the evil from my life?

well, I checked the box contesting the ticket and requesting a hearing. They didn't ask if i wanted the officer there. They were mass-producing so many tickets I doubt they'd even know who to send to court. They didn't even put the time or date on the ticket Honestly, it looked like the ticket was pre-filled and they just wrote my name and address on it

what happens if the officer who shows up isn't the one who lasered me? The guy who wrote the ticket wasn't the one who was holding the laser gun and flagging people down. Can I be like, "your honor, that's not the right officer." What a crock. They're just trying to make money. THey must assume that most of these people will just pay them without thinking.

Yes, in washington How do I request for the officer to be there? There was nothing like that on the ticket I sent in, contesting the charges. As to God, I don't believe in him. Maybe that's what pissed him off.

charging for rescue? What's next? The fire department sending bills? The police department asking for a deposit before they respond to a burglary call? phhh

Has anybody here successfully contested a speeding ticket? This morning I pulled out onto a busy arterial from a residential side-street, and before I had even accelerated past 10 mph I saw an officer on the other side of the street, frantically waving down cars. I was concerned, so I turned around, and pulled up next to him. I asked, "what's going on? Were you trying to wave me down, or somebody else?" He said, "Were you coming this way originally, or did you turn around?" I told him I had turned around, and he told me to pull over into an empty parking lot where 3 or 4 other cars were waiting. There, I received a ticket from another officer (not the one who was flagging people down) and he gave me a ticket for doing 36 in a 20. 36??! He didn't even know who I was when I first pulled up. How does he know I was the one he hit with his laser if he couldn't even recognize me when I pulled up to him? What a scam. You can't just stand in the middle of the road waving people down and them give them all a ticket for speeding. I had just entered the fucking road! No WAY I'm giving these bastards $201. What do you think my chances are? I'll lose my license and bike/bus everywhere before I pay these fuckers a single dime.

So, I just cancelled my comcast service. SUCH a different experience. They were basically, "you want to cancel? Whatever. Done. Bye."

hmm, first of all, I think I remember a lot of ledges and blocky terrain on route. I don't think there are many places I'd want to take a leader fall, unless it was very short. I can't remember, but I think that slab at the top has a fairly safe landing -- meaning, I don't think it would kill you. But don't fall. If your bro isn't up to it, you can always climb up and lower him a top-rope.

could be worse, at least its raining

great photos, pat

I went by feathered friends with the gf to get her a sleeping bag and a pack. She's a hard fit, but they helped her try on nearly every pack in the store -- switching out hip belts and adjusting and measuring until they finally found a pack that she loved and that fits great. No way REI would have given her this much attention, or known that much about their products.

Why don't you guys move to Canada if you hate America so much. Palin/McCain 2008!!!1

I love how Bush made a deal with India to allow them to purchase huge amounts of nuclear material and technology from the United States, despite their absolute refusal to sign the nuclear non-proliferation treaty. Nice job

won't somebody think of the children???

The last 8 years have been such a spectacle. I can't BELIEVE anybody would consider voting for the Palin/McCain ticket at this point.
