    Outlaw Shovel

    A lot of people are quick to judge and slow to help, I would rather help first and then bother with it later (only if helping bothers me - which it does not). In Montreal across from the old Forum there is a park where some homeless congregate as it is close to the Old Brewery Mission where...

    Congratulations to the USA

    Obviously the village troll is off his medications again, try not to take the posts too seriously. The moderators know all about what is reality and what is perceived as reality by our favourite little narcissist. :rolleyes:

    Outlaw Shovel

    Lot of the 'occupy' movement people were thoughtful enough to write their political statements on buildings (etc) with sidewalk chalk, intent is not to permanently 'tag' things like a graffiti artist would do... so they were arrested for defacing property none the less... and it has filtered...

    Well - if you sell it right, people will buy horse pee if you put it in a fancy bottle with a blue ribbon on it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premarin

    People do strange things in attempts to better there selves. I have a laugh when I see television advertising where some company is promoting some plant which is incorporated in some sort of cream or gel which is supposed to transform a persons appearance back to when they were 10 years...

    Outlaw Shovel

    They really need to have the same controls over shovels as they do for sidewalk chalk and arrest people for possession... http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/07/13/us-usa-occupy-art-idUSBRE86C0X220120713

    Gun laws do they work

    So here is a realistic scenareo - two drunken (or perhaps high) thugs under the age of majority are chucking stones and breaking every single window in your home in the middle of the night and yelling all sorts of obscenities towards your home... so you go and get your camera and take a picture...

    You would also get a butt fill of pepper corns if you hassle the cows or chase the livestock... just saying...

    Gun laws do they work

    Indeed the flaming botles of gasoline was the extreme sample for North America (but not all countries). No one has lobbed Molatovs at out home but there is a familt member in my home who is of frail health, so I would use what I feel is appropriate force if I felt someone within the compound is...

    Are you a Volunteer? How do you help make a better world?

    SUpporting a community center is good for everyone. Our local Catholic church had the local grade school donated to them many years ago, which has been leased back to the county and converted into the local community center as well as the firehall to house the volunteer fire department pumper...

    Gun laws do they work

    Throwing stuff at someones home is not always taken as a threat on them physically, unless it is something like flaming bottles of gasoline, or one of the occupants of the home is of ill health and the stress will cause them harm. A lot of people who celebrate by firing guns into the air have...

    Congratulations to the USA

    hahaha - I remember that NASA was visiting for a long time near Sudbury because the stripped landscape was similar to the barren terrain of the moon... also quite close in colour as everything back then was grey. Probably could have just taken footage from their evaluations and tests and...

    Congratulations to the USA

    Perhaps this is the same build-up we had in the 1960s when there was a race to get the technology to the point where a human would set foot on another planet. I still remember everyone watching the landing on the moon - it was spectacular.

    Microsoft has made it so that Windows 8 approved PC can only run Windows 8

    My pickup truck was made by Ford to run only on gasoline... would this also be viewed as anti competitive behaviour? Perhaps I would like to run my truck on deisel or ethanol or electricity or hydrogen...

    Are you a Volunteer? How do you help make a better world?

    That is excellent! I do not do any structured volunteer work but I do assist with local youth in their quest to maintain their own off road vehicles safely. Originally they had no mechanical clue and a lot of them were spending a lot of time in the bush walking out. Got tired of having to...

    Gun laws do they work

    If all else fails with hardware setups - ask someone under 30 (as long as they can stop texting for 5 minutes and pay attention to your question). Thats the easiest way I get things done that is not a jobsite issue: drop off the equipment at the kids home in town, announce I will be picking up...

    Gun laws do they work

    Ask if you can check with the hospitals IT guru and get them to guide you through it. Each hospital is a bit different setup and rules but we have never been told NO by their techies. Just avoid the area near the MRI and other "non-invasive" test procedures...

    Gun laws do they work

    My choice of English is not always correct - I don’t know what other word to use for "compound" to describe the portion where our home is on our property. It is fenced with energized fencing similar to the outer boundary of the property so there are no livestock where they should not be, which...

    Gun laws do they work

    We used to be able to leave the keys in the car, the tractors in the field and the house unlocked... as 'civilization' moves closer to the rural areas people seem to feel they have the liberty to take or use what does not belong to them. We have seen and approached people casually wandering...

    My Country, Your country

    Some people can hardly stay on topic, the rest seem to look for chances to bash someone elses country. sad... Back to the original intent of the thread - my daughter came back from Maine and had a most excellent time. Only a couple of days at the ocean and the rest of the time doing touristy...
