That was the first thing I thought of when I saw this article, too. I have a few bonsai maple trees, but I think this would be a better addition to my collection.
The funny part is that the DMA started whining about harrassment when it started receiving all those phone calls yesterday. A lot of the calls were reported to its telco.
Be careful. I happen to know, from an incredibly reliable source, that because of their call volume yesterday, they are referring repeated and/or harrassing calls to AT&T's harrassment prevention line.
Where did this imaginative bit of fiction originate? The War of Drugs has consistently raised the level of drug use in the US. If this is your rationalization or your goal, then I think you would probably be better off working in a factory.
The problem with this is that we are not, and never have been, a democracy. The US is a republic, and has been from the beginning. We elect people to make our decisions for us.
If we were a true democracy, we wouldn't have Congress. Instead, we would be voting on each and every issue that Congress is dealing with currently.
80% isn't exactly right. I signed up. That's for my wife, and I. That's just the voting age people in my household. Most phone numbers have more than one person associated with them.
I do appreciate being corrected. I searched for it before I put it as my.sig, but I didn't think about Bartlett's. It is free at www.bartleby.com. Right now the.sig is a few character short of the 120 character limit, and it's misquoted, so I'll probably end up changing it.
Regardless of your opinion of him, the quote is still a true statement, IMNSHO. Besides, if you felt your opinion had merit, you wouldn't have posted AC.
I corrected the.sig, as much as space constraints allow. I have no problems with being corrected, but if you're going to be a pedant, will you at least do it all the way and get the complete quote, instead of quoting "something extremely close"?
My mother's logic was "You shouldn't use guns, why should you take a gun safety course?"
My wife and I have this argument on a regular basis. Our son is only 3, so it's not a pressing issue for us right now. He will take a gun safety course, whether he wants to or not. She thinks that knowing how to use a gun will make someone want to use a gun. I haven't fired a gun since I was seventeen, but I firmly believe that knowing how to be around a gun safely is a necessary skill, even if you plan to never be around guns.
You are right. This wouldn't have stopped these kids, because shooting those cars wasn't accidental. It may have made them realize that bullets hurt, but most people come to that conclusion on their own, without needing a class. These kids are idiots, and their genes should have been removed from the pool before their parents ever met.
By the time I was 13, I had taken a firearms safety class. More than 10 years later, I still have it listed as an endorsement on my driver's license. Everyone I went to school with took the same class. In the town where I grew up, there has never been an accidental gun fatality, and there has been only one documented murder in the last 100 years. That was an 80 year old man shooting his 80 year old wife because she had alzheimer's.
The problem here is not so much that the kids had access to guns. In most cases, 14 is old enough to use a gun responsibly. The issue is that the parents didn't require everyone in the house to take gun safety classes. The other(bigger) issue is that the parents didn't instill morals in their offspring. These parents should have been sterilized at the first hint of puberty.
Also, there has been a ban on interstate sales tax in many jurisdictions for many, many years. If you order something by mail from Oregon and you live in New Jersey, you don't pay sales tax.
In most states, you do have to pay sales tax if you order something from another state. The company isn't required to charge the tax. You are supposed to get an additional form from the state and declare your purchases yourself.
No, you shouldn't be legally allowed to sell anything you want. But, if the agents asked for the missiles, it becomes entrapment, which would get the case thrown out if it wasn't tried in a closed kangaroo court.
And, generally, after a specified amount of time, the classification of most of the work expires. Most things that NSA peons work on are declassified after 1 year.
When I organize files, I use the haphazard method I like to call "Desktop". When this gets bloated I make a few folders, like "Letters", "Training", and my favorite, "Stuff".
For emails, completed project requests are sorted into folders named after the manager that requested the project. These folders are organized like our corporate hierarchy. Supervisors are nested under managers, who are nested under directors who are nested under whoever the hell else is above them.
My to-do list is sorted into email folders with four categories with two subcategories each. The categories are "Now", "Soon", "Whenever", and "Done". The subcategories are the same for each category, "Client", and "Operations". This lets me prioritize my work. Of the projects listed under "Now", the client jobs are done before the operations jobs, because the clients provide money.
About once a month, I clear out the "Done" folder into the manager-name folders.

They have fought the War on Drugs with skill...

Where in the midwest? In Minnesota, almost all of August was in the upper 90s. Of course, now, it's a chilly 60 degrees.

This is why the gene pool needs chlorine.
