And if for some reason you get away, there will be a visit later on by another team of people who will make an example of you for the rest of the asshats. Give the Israelis their credit, they do get the fuckers eventually.
Israelis couple their technique with some of the most thorough background checks and heavy racial profiling. Plus they have strict measures for searching of bags, and of passengers, along with armed and obvious crew, and armed and not obvious crew. If you are concerned about being hijacked, fly El Air. If you are sort of kinda concerned, but not worried, fly any US carrier. The threat of hijacking has been blown way out of proportion in order to keep the shrill danger, danger, danger idea going, and to keep allowing the government to concentrate more and more control. Which BTW is not the lead in to a conspiracy theory. Just a fact of life that power leads to more power if unchecked, along with he human trait of trying to make your job secure. Fuck all if I know how to stop it though. Anywhoo, I am not allowed to fly on US carriers or into or from US airports, so I don't care.
It is 2010. Is Canada delivering phone books to cell phone users? I have not had a land line since 2000, despite running two separate businesses. And I don't advertise, except for word of mouth or sometimes when I strike up conversations with folks in a line.
I got on the craps table and with a 5 dollar starting bet, made enough to spend 9 hours giving it all back on the 50 dollar a hand blackjack table. Streaks happen, but the odds are slim. And I made most of my "winnings" without touching the dice.
If you go to a casino for anything other than entertainment, you are screwy. If you go to toss dice, flip cards and have a good time, and only spend a reasonable amount, then it can be a blast.
I'll go to a casino about once every couple of years for a week-end. They have a nice hotel, great swimming pools, good food and lots of folks to watch. Room is usually 45-55 a night, well worth it, since it has a large whirlpool tib, big enough for two, three if they are friendly, big TV and plenty of channels, and cheap room service with great food. I take two hundred bucks for gambling. Usually lose 100 playing blackjack, and the rest tossing craps. But I spend several hours doing so over the week-end. I had one weekend where I came home a huge winner. Brought home from my gambling money 204 bucks. Had another weekend where I shot craps, and took the "winnings" and spent almost 10 hours losing them playing 50 bucks a hand blackjack. Came home with about 30 bucks of my 200. Both weekends were great, as were the ones I lost my entire 200 dollar bankroll. I would just like to thank the compulsive and addicted gamblers who make visiting the casinos such a great deal and value.
Then get the fucking vehicle designed for a max speed of maybe 20mph off the fucking roads designed for 2 ton plus vehicles designed to travel at 35mph plus. Goddamn arrogant and retarded bicyclists need to be run over and then be shot for blocking traffic, ignoring traffic laws, including ones concerning the hindering of traffic, and for general principle. Roads are for cars, not for bicycles.
Police have gone from being the heroes and our friends to balaclava wearing, para-militarily armed thugs with no name tags or numbers on their badges.
From Blue uniforms and a friendly smile, to sullen glares and black BDUs. From a helping hand to the immediate threat of force and shouted commands to comply. Wish there was a realistic solution.
The same comcast, verizon, AT&T who all bent over and took it up the ass and then sucked the NSA's cock clean when all the NSA wanted to do was install traps on every fucking phone call, email and other bit of data going through their pipes? I trust corporations to look out for my best interests no more than I trust the government, that is not at all.
Well, give them credit for the highly successful Wars on Poverty, Racism, Drugs and Terror. Look, an America with no poor people, no racism, no drugs and no terror. See how well it works?
eh, responding to an AC. How low must I be. Trust me dear AC, if they did that, and then shot a secretary or two, or even beat someone half to death, the drones, regardless of their ITG words on/.; would quickly supply any and all information requested and do anything they were told to do by the large angry men with guns, who just committed a violent and brutal assault upon one or two of their co-workers. The high moral stances and assertion of private property rights tend to disappear when you think you are getting ready to be shot, beat or killed.
Doubt any civilian has the means to stop them. Most real authority comes from the barrel of a gun. And even though the USA is almost totally made their once respected police officers into para-military goons, with balaclavas, blacked out badges and no name tags, armed with fully automatic weapons in many cases, with an arsenal of armored vehicles, grenades, sniper teams and trained tactical response units, they still are not the match of a average military combat unit. The police still get a minor amount of instruction and training in holding their fire and less than deadly responses.
Agreed. Just a few seconds of your time and it costs nothing. And the next time you come in, your bread won't be placed in the bottom of the bag with a gallon of milk on top of it to hold it in place. Or the waitress will make sure you coffee cup stays full and your order is hot and right. Or the salesman will point you away from the expensive "x" and towards the equal quality "y" which is a lot cheaper. Funny what a kind word will get you.
I find the rubik cube solving LEGO builds to me more interesting, or the automatic dice roller. Of course, with over 600 pounds of LEGO in stock, I am sort of into the whole idea of LEGO. And no, there is no link to my webpage or ebay store. I prefer not to see people self-promoting goods for sale, so I refrain.
Why not just find a really good beer and drink it, with shots of everclear in between sips? That way before you actually finish your beer, you'll be passed out.
Still is the cheapest around here. As a tight, yet not frugal, person, I buy a half gallon for 32 USD including taxes (31.84 IIRC)
Two different drinks 1) one part everclear, one par sunny D, one part sprite and a shot of lime juice 2) one part coke zero, one part everclear, one part sprite When you use 4oz as the part, it doesn't take but one glass in an hour to feel really good, and three glasses in an hour and a half makes the night disappear.
Excuse me, HVAC/R tech here./wave China still produces, uses and manufactures R-12, and R-22, as do many other nations. We don't because it "damages" the atmosphere. We can't use it HVAC/R systems, even though both are very good refrigerants with very good heat transfer and condensing properties. But the reason the CFCs were "damaging" the atmosphere was not due to HVAC/R use, but due to massive amounts being used a propellants for aerosol cans and as a expander for styrofoam and related materials. But HVAC/R got screwed we had to retool and develop new refrigerants that required new engineering and costs a lot more. And guess what, we did not cause the problem. Contrary to news reports, HVAC/R people want to keep the refrigerant inside the equipment, not in the atmosphere. The AC or cooler won't work if the magic pixie gas is not inside.
"Surely anything -anything- is preferable to losing the large majority of world population?" Why? What value do they have to me? If I don't die, then there is no bad side to losing 3 out out of 4 people in the world. And if I do die, I won't give a damn about it anyway. You seem to be very caught up in the idea that human life has some sanctity or value in an absolute sense. When in fact it does not. Did you stop, and cry and mourn the child who died while your reading this paragraph? If not, then you do not value all human life equally. And if you don't value it equally, then there has to exist a ranking system, where some are worth zero and some are priceless.
HVAC/R tech, and business owner. My T-stat batteries were dead last night when I got home. I could have opened AH, connected common at the board and on T-stat and it would work until it broke. Could have pulled a T-stat from the shop that works with a hot and a resistor instead of a common. Could have grabbed a T-81 mercury bulb and wired it in. I took cover off T-stat and used a jumper to bring on OD unit and put hot and fan together under same lug. Will buy batteries today. Do that crap too much for pay to want to do it for fun.
Using the physic powers I gained in an accident involving a radioactive robin, a neutrino rifle and a jar of Smucker's strawberry jam, I foresee you being modded into oblivion for saying such things. Some ideas are automatically verboten on/.
explain then the many historical drawings, made by muslims, of your pedoprophet.
seems that it was OK a few hundred years ago and now just recently it has become evil. add in the koran saying none, and the numerous islamic drawing of flowers, birds, plants and other things that are also forbidden by your book of fairy tales.

Now, now, the fully dressed out, battle ready National Guardsmen, with unloaded rifles improved security.
I think you may wish to talk to the Druse about that lie. Plenty of them in the IDF.

slots, at least in Vegas, have the best odds of any game. They tend to pay out between .96-.98 cents of every dollar played.
