So, how is it that the same press could not find a single classmate or student of Barry Hussein Soetoro in 9 or 10 YEARS?

1. He didn’t really go to school where he said he did.

or

2. Nobody wants to admit they knew him.

Take your pick.

“Big Flying Rocket” — I don’t grasp the humor in that. ;>(

That’s because you didn’t count correctly.

Big F-—ing Rocket has dashes for 3 letters, not 2, i.e. ‘ly’.

Think ‘BFG’

/s Do I need this.

Transistor demonstrated December 23, 1947; Prototype transistor radio demonstrated June, 1948.

Yes, but the first commercial one, the Regency TR-1, did not go on sale until Nov. 1954.

Just as soon as I win the $421 million Mega Millions tonight, my bid’s going in.

Worked on Navy/Marine versions at MCAS Beaufort, SC. but B, C, and D models. Probably would put a later model J-79 in it since I’d have money to spare. The early ones were a little flakey.

It’s kind of amusing how most western shows present a nice orderly town, and hardly anything changes. It’s like they are in some never-ending period of “the west” that goes on forever. You would think a long-running show would depict the introduction of modern inventions like automobiles, electricity, motion pictures,etc. But they never seem to advance from a period of “not long after the Civil War”, even if the show runs for 10 or more years. I still enjoy watching old 50’s westerns.

Richard Boone as Hec Ramsey was set in the early 1900’s and showed the transition from the Old West to the 20th century. Good show. Ran from 72 to 74.

Isn’t it considered inefficient to launch off the west coast?

Usually needed for polar orbits, secret military launches in a weird orbit, etc., ones that can’t be done from the Cape.

... needed a combat type weapon including a fully auto M-1 carbine.

Not to be too picky, but isn’t your full auto M1 carbine actually an M2?

It was due to a lack of adhesive ducks.

The difference between this dude and other dudes wearing tinfoil hats... The government has given this dude $4 billion in subsidies... The man is a complete lunatic and that will be his defense in court when they find out how much fraud and theft he has partaken in....

So all those rockets going up and coming back to land, something that NASA hasn’t been able to do in 60 years, are just a figment of his lunatic imagination?

It is not possible to post losses every year and maintain the illusion that you will eventually make money...

Why not?

It worked for Amazon. Starting in in 1994, it was 6 years before they finally showed a small profit. And they didn’t show an overall profit (more total profit than total losses for their entire history) until 2009.

This illegal alien scum is charged with vehicular homicide and the Denver sheriff let him bail but wouldn’t turn him over ICE because being in the country illegally is only a civil offense.

Seems like Congress should just define being here illegally a ‘criminal felony’. What would they do then?

Let’s see. They live part of the year in a $150,000 patio home in Voyager RV Park in Tucson. They travel most of the year in their $300,000+ Winnebago Vectra motorhome.

Some summers they work for Holland America Cruise Lines in Fairbanks, AK. Others they spend working at the Old Faithful Gift Shop in Yellowstone. And sometimes they workamp at an upscale RV park on the Washington coast. In the fall they’re in Fernley, NV working for Amazon. And of course often they just travel in their coach seeing the country.

They do this because they like to keep busy and occupied.

For our part, my wife and I workamped for 5 months in Fairbanks, AK, and for the last 6 years we’ve done oil field gate guarding in South and East Texas. And the rest of the year we also travel in our motorhome.

Last year we spent 5 months making a big loop out west hitting Las Cruces, Tucson, Apache Junction, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Bend, OR, Coeur d’Alene, ID, Rapid City, SD, North Platte, NE, Oklahoma City, and then back to Houston.

We’re in our early 70’s and have been doing this for 11 years now.

We work on the road because we like it.

And that explains how Amazon keeps getting more and more applications every year, how?

We have friends who have been working for Amazon every year for six years now and going back again this fall, and they’re now in their 70’s.

Persons between 18 and 21 also cannot purchase handgun ammunition, so mom or dad has to buy the ammo as well.

How does that work for ammos like .22, used in both?

An example is that current law says you must be at least 21 to buy a handgun or handgun ammunition, but you can own a handgun if you are under 21

So if you can’t legally buy one, but someone buys one for you and gives it to you, isn’t that essentially a ‘straw purchase’?

Otherwise how can you OWN one without buying it?

New Jersey and Florida are attempting to ram through anti-Second Amendment laws also.

Didn’t Florida just vote down an assault weapon ban and vote to allow teachers to carry? What did they do anti-2nd?

Under fire for discussing paying 100,000.00 to a player to come to U of A.

Isn’t that called a ‘signing bonus’?

... And a standard AR-15 isn’t meaningfully different from a semiautomatic pistol in that respect either, although it fires with more power...

Uh... NO.

“Addadictome “ — HT to Rush Limbaugh for that. Too bad he quit using it about ten years ago.

Heard Rush use this just a few weeks ago.

Amazon gets a rate shipping cut from USPS. IOW.....they’re subsidized.....by US.

ALL large shippers get rate discounts from the USPS. The more you ship, the larger the discount.

If I mail out 3000+ ad cards (like I just did) I pay less per card (a lot less) than if I mail out 500 cards.

So I guess you helped pay for that too.

Thanks.
