cheaper too..

prime starts at 36 bucks if you have an edu address, 80 if you don’t.

we prime just about everything including food.

We do very well saving money this way. I stop at Sams club for things that don’t ship well (Dairy, fruits, veggies and fresh meat) when I need gas.

I lost track but I know we have saved 1500+ bucks just in the discounted rates we pay for the item.

Neighborhood watch will take on a whole new meaning....

“Ok guys, I’ll cruise the neighborhood. Who’s gonna man the surface-to-air?”

My understanding was you know that you have a package arriving in 30 minutes. It’s like waiting for a cab … keep your eyes open and keep looking out the window.

Then a package falls from the sky.

Actually there is no reason the, by GPS, they couldn’t call your cell and say they are outside.

This is such BS, it’s on every channel and radio station.
It will not work, made up nonsense reported as accurate reality. Sort of like Obamas history, all fluff and no substance.
Just let an Amazon drone try to fly over Bubbas casa. I’m thinking the 12 gauge loaded with 00 buck through a 32” full choke barrel would be capable of taking out the delivery to about 100 yards. .22 for longer range! Dang sounds like fun!

What's the panic?

Remember a few years back when Jeff Bezos scared us with the Segway? By 2010, we were going to be a nation of bicycle-helmet wearing dorks, ditching our automobiles and riding our Segways through the cities of the world.

What exactly should the Vichy GOP do or what is the best strategy? The answer is get the hell out of the way, let the Tea Party take the lead. They should not be embarrassed by folks like Cruz like when he went on the offensive regarding obamacare, they should have supported him.

Tried & true conservatives such as Cruz and Palin and all Tea Party candidates need to run adds countering the war on women. They need to challenge their opponents in debates and go on the offensive, use facts showing what a lie it is. They need to show hypocrisy, such as how their hero Bill Clinton just uses women.

Such people are much more articulate than I ever could be on the subject. They are people I have faith in.

YOU can get into the drone business for this Christmas! Yes, for $99.95 you can but a radio control RQ-11 electric powered, hand launched drone of your own. The broadcast TV camera is extra, but what a great way to spy on the neighbors. The RQ-11 drone and other radio control UAV’s are available from RaidenTech.com.
