So, what in 2016 is going to make the Republicans want the presidency? Do they really need it to do what Republicans do? Seems it's better for them to just let Democrats eat it for awhile longer.

I'm not one who logs on the internet to expose "others" stupidity on a daily basis just for kicks. If I was, I'd have to make sure I was readable at least. It wasn't an insult, it was hard to read....

Mike could probably knock 15# off of the build just by forgoing the bon-bons and ice cream. :D

Mike's a fisherman. Knowing him, it's probably colored "yum-yum" yellow and he doesn't want to become shark food in a boat that looks like a fat lazy bait from below.

More flawed, liberal justification. You seem to forget that a lot of conservative voters crossed the aisle to vote for change of the status quo. It's now seeming awfully convenient for the libs to...

I've tried all the knots. I keep going back to the old standard that my father taught me. I can tie it quickly in the dark by feel, alone. Fishing knot tying has become complicated. Oddly enough,...

I have been using braid for years. It lasts a LONG time. Some I have is 6 years old. Started out green and is now white. Braid, fluorocarbon leader, and Owner circle hooks.

It's still not going to make people forget what Obama promised in 08. Personally, I can't wait to see what the Democrats scrape from the bottom of that same, leaky, credibility barrel for 2016. I...

With the panga, and some power dories, the narrow beam helped with such compromises. Same with the Simmons skiffs. People tend to focus on the lack of deadrise without considering beam at the chines....

And Biden's prescribed weapon and a revolver too. A smorgasbord of somewhat common weapons. The guy essentially pleaded for help well ahead of time. Had shot a deer and drug it into his dorm room on...

Seems that Whitman had a history of unchecked mental disorder. Also, most of his victims were killed with one shot, almost none of which came from a high capacity assault weapon. Then there's this...

Delta pads are also common on high performance bass or flats boats. When you see a boat that is air'd out, that's all the hull is riding on, giving the appearance of the hull riding on the anti-vent...

With regard to our young people, or those with mental issues of a homicidal nature, govt cannot, or should not have to fix. There is a trend that has much of these issues relying too much on govt,...

I don't think that effectively covers the issue of "mass killers" or criminals really. We're turning out a lot of young criminals and a lot of angry young people in general. Some of the stories these...

It's still pretty frequent. You manage to rub people the wrong way. I'd say at the very least, the issue is mutual. Takes two, etc.



Oh well, I guess I had a moment. It's what you were after...

That's more of a cause and effect condition of the stalemate surrounding the issue. Half the people are buying guns because their political adversaries are outraged by it. Another condition of media...

If I was attacking you, you would know it. You set the tone here long before, and more often than I participate. I am not the only person you seem to have issues with. You are what you eat, and all...

I am not trying to be insulting. The spirit of the debate sets the tone. It is nothing personal. I get along with just about everyone and have never held a grudge my entire life. It's too difficult...

I agree with the 2nd Amendment rights. What I don't agree with is other socially harmful trends that have been taking place in the last 3-4 decades. It has to do with how we categorize and rehab the...

You had to go all the way to Thailand to deal with a drunk American? LOL. . .You could have just stayed home and dealt with a drunk Australian instead!

You know, I have met quite a few Aussies...

Go ahead, be concerned about what goes on in my country. See how much that helps yours, or mine, or your neighborhood for that matter. What a bunch of defeatist excuses. No wonder your country has...

I never said we didn't have a problem. I started out in this thread suggesting that if we fix our problems closer to home, from the inside out, from under our own roofs (think of the root...

I dunno. ..the difference between you and I is, I feel odd about concerning myself with issues across the ocean or even across state lines, even if there is one issue of any kind that causes...

It's not about me. I am frustrated with dealing with my own country's social problems. I want to criticize yours. I really can't stand alcoholics. 73 is going to be my new number. 73% of Australians...

It's the justifiable, choice statistics that I am fond of. One death isn't worthy of consideration. It has to be 5 or more.

So when is Australia going to buy back or ban alcohol. You guys spent...

Are you always so pig-headed? I replied to this statement, which has no borders or legal implications unanimously.

"E-cigs and the like are the worst (IMO) sort of cructh in that they are not...

It's not worse for you than tobacco. It's not as bad for you as burning tobacco. Nicotine by itself is about the same as caffeine. The reason it is illegal in Cantada is more likely perpetuated by...

That's false. E-cigs use way less nicotine. Almost everyone I know that uses them automatically decreased the nicotine without much issue at all. I went from 18mg down to 6, which is pretty benign...

To the contrary, what in our constitutional law, that was initially well designed for ordinary citizens as well, should make it to where one has to be a constitutional lawyer in which to discuss it....

We often use a system like this, which is plastic covers for rigid lumber. Carpeted bunks are a no-no for aluminum hulls used in saltwater.
...

The stern of the Simmons is 35 degrees. If one wanted to keep the same profile, it would take a custom bracket that would put the engine further aft. I don't know if the additional buoyancy of...

Wood boats, or glass covered wood for that matter will work with a good grade of oil base paint. Paint chips and such usually occur when people put multiple "refresher" coats of paint over the old...

I never claimed to have a fantasy land or that I was looking for one, nor have I complained of how it is here. I certainly haven't told you what you should do with yours. It can be tough living here....

Why isn't everybody flocking to have what you depict as so great? The 'majority' of us can manage ourselves without a nanny. A country with roughly the same land mass you have is actually getting...

She has a lot of photos. These particular shots she gave to me personally as part of an album on facebook so I don't feel weird posting them. She has some really amazing photos that I will ask if she...

Anyone who has ever fished with frozen minnows on the piers and docks on the Atlantic coast up North, will attest to the yellow jackets eating the bait. Many people are too lazy to take care of their...

I sure can, but then, I don't have a lot of "stuff." My flashlight, camera, cordless drills and my boat use rechargeable batteries. The boat, I put on the night before to see if the charger light...

A friend of mine catches some amazing water bird shots. She has some of Ospreys in the nest that are incredible. She really manages to catch Florida as I experienced it growing up. We both grew up on...

I had a camera battery self destruct into a molten mess on the charger. Now I don't charge things unattended, no matter what it is. Otherwise, they are in a fire safe environment. I don't even leave...

Similarly, Ted Kaczynski, was neither an idiot, or a redneck. I think he had an IQ of over 160. He certainly would have been bright enough to be whoever he wanted them to think he was.

This is...

A country of 300 million + and we have a gun/murder epidemic compared to other 'developed' nations? Not paying attention to mainstream media is not avoiding the issue, it's putting it into immediate...

I smoked for over 30 years and was up to a nearly 3 pack/day habit. I used the patch for a week and then to the e-cig. Truth is, I enjoy the act of smoking and could take or leave the nicotine. It...

I forget to watch TV or listen to news, for the purpose of paying closer attention of what is immediately around me. It's hard enough to keep up with things that immediately concern me, so it would...

"I just threw up a little in my mouth."

Single word hack would have to be "delish!"

Throw the boat away and put the motor into a . . .

I don't recall many Republican voters/workers complaining about safety, it was the Gestapo like infliction and loop-holing of the rules in order to bully the little guy out of competing for contracts...

We are a nation law breakers and opportunists. We have exactly the government that we represent ourselves, collectively.

LOL, you're kidding, right? Theirs, or someone else's, at any given time. At least in my lifetime. So what exactly are 'you' still paying for, Glen? You seem rather safe and immune, from where I sit.
