  1. Businesses take on additional debt for a variety of good reasons. Investing in efficiency, which reduces costs and/or increases revenue is one. If eliminating debt was always the best choice, then you should write a big fat check to your mortgage provider today. And some businesses take on too much debt and become insolvent. As noble as keeping up with the Jones' is (or Chens' in this case), a high speed train isn't a necesity.
  2. Great! Let's start with our biggest expenditure (hint: it's not trains.) Are you expecting me to disagree with you at this point? We coulkd afford all kinds of things if we reduced our spending. I'd be a lot more receptive to a new mass transportation program if we weren't under water from the last ten years of spending.
  3. Seams to me that the issue is paying off our current debt before taking on more, not the merits of high speed trains.
  4. You tell me. [video:youtube]
  5. You may as well title this thread "which almost famous guitarist sucks the the least" because "shredders" are generally band nerds that graduated from an instrument like the clarinet to a guitar and only play for other band nerds.
  6. Chilliwack + minor US commercial success = Russ
  7. Steve Vai's greatest commercial success came when he caught Coldplay ripping him off. Sure he's a good guitarist but he sucks otherwise, just being able to play the guitar isn't enough to make great music. I had a friend in highschool who was an aspiring musician and would play his stuff all the time and say "listen to this, can you believe how good he is..." I didn't have the heart to tell him how awful Steve Vai was to anyone who wasn't trying to learn to play the guitar.

    ROOSTER!!!!!

    See j_b, cock is bad for your health.
  9. You should submit your resume to TNF, clearly they are nothing without you.
  10. Would recommending a waterjet be too much?

    The Panama Canal isn't just a river in Egypt. [video:youtube]
  12. When I was out there in December all that had fallen down. I was lucky to get on GWI but that was super thin and run out.
  13. Looks like a 60gr weight jacket. Curious how it compares to the older compressor?
  14. I have never used the Goal0 but I think you could build your own for a lot less. Also, if I were making my own I'd use a thin film panel (instead of chrystaline) so that I didn't have to worry about damaging the panel packing it.
  15. In addition to the neoprene waste cinches the Igniter only has a single front zipper. I think you can add plastic cinches but you're stuck with the single zipper unless you have the jacket altered. Overall I like the Igniter, its a heavy jacket though.
  16. I assume its Liberty Dist in SLC.
  17. I have a pair of Petzl crampons that I don't think fit all that well on my Nepal Evo's because of the shape of the sole. They don't wiggle or rattle and are tight but you can see they do not match the curve of the sole. I've looked into the Asym bars but they're $45.

    It's Only Rhetoric

    feel free to enligthen me then - i've heard the term before but don't know much, other than that they're supposed to penetrate body-armor - what is such ammo, how is it different from other types, and why/why not shoudl it be banned? Ask TTK, he made the statement and is (according to him) the ACLU's 2nd Amendment panel member.

    Probably about as much as you two hang on and respond to my posts, and sheeit, and I'm not even famous or good looking.... "Where's my COP KILLER answer!!!!!!??????" LOL Its a discussion forum, its not about you personally. I can understand how a narcissistic wouldn't get it though. I think you skipped answering the question because, much like everything you say, it was just bullshit you heard on the nightly news.
