This crisis is demostrating the suicidal nautre of "Just in Time" supply chains. When it is over we need to end the inventory tax in every state. It is immoral and bad policy to tax wealth that isn't moving anyway but it might just kill us in a crisis.

Why not offer flu tests as part of screening? Cheap, readily available, eliminates doubt. Something hit me the other day like a ton of bricks. Headache, chills, shakes, deep muscle pain, then fever. No cough, no shortness of breath, no chest pain. I met some but not all of the Covid 19 criteria. It struck at work so my office mates were as freaked as was I. It took a long time to get my doc on the phone, a full day, and she said I didn't qualify for the test. Great, I still don't know. I did find that...

It looks like the Senate will be a wipe-out. It is just a matter of how many. On the other hand, Congress is very hard to follow. Polls are very misleading. While many of these races are in flux, what are we to do? What is the most accurate polls/information(not neccssarily the same). Not looking for "predictions, per se, but where are races that are solid. One way or the other.

I had an interesting conversation with friends, and was inspired to ask my Friends for their comments... I first chose an American classic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzPLQpLAxc4 ~ Nat King Cole ~ Stardust! I then chose the Irish Philharmonic Orchestra ~ Irish Philharmonic Orchestra ~ Holy God We praise Thy Name(3:36) Finally, I decided on a blues classic: (1975 Dublin) Thin Lizzy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=261uidoVOVk

I created this thread to compile hilarious and compelling "Hell Week" & other boot camp stories. Let em' rip.

I'm not usually, if ever, asking for help on something, but my cd player won't play "Hitman" or anything else I feed it. I can't find a "My CD" folder, as described in one of the articles' repair steps. I'll do what I can from your suggestions, up to my limited knowledge base, to implement any ideas. Within reason. Thanks in advance.

VIDEO I smoked 30 Pollo Rojo wing pieces on my 22" Weber Grill. The wings were marinated in the magic mojo at La Ranchera grocery in Broward County. My rub was a combination of Adobo plus Chipotle Sea Salt and other seasonings. One hour of smoking and then the wings were flipped for a final 15 minutes more. Great results primarily due to the very unique secret mojo that La Ranchera uses.

With all the chaos going on in this country after the Parkland, Fla. massacre, and the gun control push by the Parkland children, the mainstream media, and the Russia probe, if Republicans retain control of the Senate and House in November and add governorships and state legislative seats, do you see the teenagers and liberals acting up after the election, protesting on the streets again?

In my case, I'd have to say either whale at a restaurant in Iceland, or fried crickets when I was in Zambia. The whale was delicious. The bugs....not so much.

Nothing follows. Sounds big. Drudge has the siren up with huge headline.

If the lying media, the rioting liberal brownshirts and the leftist hysterics beat Trump it will be a win for those tactics. And they will only become worse. Also, who will replace trump if the left wins? there is no one. No one has the courage to fight that trump does on the GOP side. they are all scared of their own shadows. Maybe I am being melodramatic, but I don't think so. I think our democracy is teetering on the brink and this may be our last chance to get things right. Pray for trump, volunteer, call your reps...

For those who allow the tone for their day to be set by the lates poll information, please consider how much manipulation is actually occurring. For example, Rasmussen has changed his measure of Rep/Dem in his methodology on a regular basis. From his own reports: "In September, the number of Americans who consider themselves to be Republicans increased a percentage point from 33.2% in August to 34.4% in September." "During that same period, the number of Democrats declined slightly from 38.9% to 38.4.%. The remainder, 27.2%, are not affiliated with either major political party." "That gives the Democrats a net...

At this point, we are all praying and hoping beyond hope that something will happen to save Terri. But it is time to think of what we can do to change things so that this never happens again that Terri's life and death might not be in vain. Of course, we'll keep our fingers crossed and maybe the judge and Mike will face some consequences, but that might not happen either. But a movie bringing out the facts on this case including the lack of role the local bishop and clergy had might be enough to change things. And it...

Please don't give up. Continue to call. Phone the following numbers and ask your family to also: Governor Jeb Bush: 850-480-7146 President George Bush: 202-456-1414 Congressman Tom Delay: 202-225-5951 Senator Bill Frist: 202-224-3344 Senator Rick Santorum: 202-224-6324 And please continue to pray!!! Terri SCHINDLER has NOT given up and neither should we!!!!!

I afraid to post. I don't want to put the pearls before swine. So if the moderators feel not good to post, delete it please. PLEASE. Now in India it is 1.23 midnight. The whole day I was in fasting and prayer. At about 11.30 (night) I went to bed after my usual prayer. I think it must be after 12.30 (midnight) I had this dream. Some mountains are fallen one by one from above. It seems like the mountains of hailstone. It was fallen upon the Dome of the Rock and that was destroyed. Then I saw the Archangel...

I see no reason whatsoever that President Bush could not use his Presidential Pardon power to pardon Terri Schiavo. Our founding fathers granted the presidnet this power to protect the individual against evil in the judiciary. No mention is made between civil or criminal cases, and the only recourse from those opposed is the ballot box or impeachment.President Bush could pardon Terri Shiavo, pick her up in the presidential helicopter, and keep her in the Lincoln bedroom to guarantee her safety during rehabilitation. Terri's mother could file for divorce on her behalf. With access to Terri, the news media and...

I suppose those of you who are siding with Michael Schiavo are feeling smug today. I have to ask a question that I wanted to ask when little Elian Gonzalez was whisked away to the island gulag. Will you cheer? Will you celebrate? The reason I ask is that we certainly will celebrate if we win. If Terri is somehow saved from this horror at this the 11th hour, those of us who are fighting for her life will cheer and clap, some of us will cry and many of us will fall to our knees in thanks to Our...
