MAINTENANCE MAN, OVER 50 working for SEC. KILLED BY DUMBWAITER, CRUSHED. Nicest guy too, multigeneration IUEC5.

Hell ya! It's unfortunate to report that we lost a brother on the job yesterday.

Had to break out the Heritage Foundation hand held constitution for this one.

My part time gig is No.3 but its odd how elevator constructors get lumped with iron workers.

The USPS like other government entities DOD, EPA, AMTRAK are not designed to make money. The honest truth is simply they are there to spend money. Being a government entity also means you must expend the same or more each FY to maintain funding. The military does this ritually every Sep. Fall out money as it referred to is deposited in accounts to be spent by 1159 Sep30. It's a horrible waste of money and business as usual. The largest of these fiscal errors have been enacted since the government began adopting the corporate mentality in a system that can't function as a corporation because it's a money losing proposal from the start FedEx and UPS slaughter the USPS because they are a corporation and own the process from a-z . Take the 727 FedEx uses for example. The first pallet covers all the expenses from pilots fuel and maintenance. The other containers are all profit . The fundamentals are all wrong when the government takes something over and drowns it under layers of ineptitude and complacency.

I was stationed in SW OK on the border of TX for a few years. Cost of living is low , wages even lower. Oil field work is hard work. Most of the guys work as contractors which means you are on your own for healthcare in an industry where people lose fingers and break bones.

They have been building their own munitions for years. It makes sense to make your own guns since they already produce large weaponry. At present its the first time in over 30 years that we've had new fighter technology that Israel hasn't shook down for us. FMS

Ok whatever Dicks is selling is more of a locker.

Stack ons are on sale at Dicks. I picked up the 14 for $130. I think the 10 was $109.

The only viable solution is to create the world's largest bombing range/impact zone from California to Texas. A few standard AC-130 passes followed by Buffs and some fast movers would be an effective deterrent.

Whoa its nowhere near that at Elmendorf BX. Guess thats the New Jersey tax.

I can’t speak for anyone but myself but this just makes me sick. How on earth did our common sense as a nation become so uncommon? I keep thinking about BRAWNDO and Idiocracy because it's the same thing over and over from the anti-side. Whoever is in charge of the utopian life hug/love fest in DC must have some really good medicinal stuff passed out. Surreal puts it mildly. Does someone actually think Camden/Newark/AC/Trenton will be safer places because of this? I haven’t been hearing much about the unemployment rates or the issues of the WARN notices that didn’t happen a few days before the election. I hate saying this is a huge welcome distraction for those punting away the fiscal cliff nightmare. What really troubles me is that this isn’t isolated to just these issues. The entire spectrum of daily American living is under scrutiny from various groups who really think they know what’s best for you. What sad and troubling times these are.

He should be working on limiting the amount of spoon to face hes got going. Nice chin.

So uhhhhh yeah what kind of cheese goes on a chili cheese dog?

I moved here from Oklahoma and the gun laws here are simply terrible.

Santa Ira brought me a PTR91. Now I need ammo and mags.

Another example of why murderers/ rapists/ molesters after pleading out to a lesser crime need to be dropped into a meat grinder.

Walked through yesterday in Bulrington. Gun safes were on sale. 308 is $21 for 20 then 50% off next box.

Clearly the correct answer is the Air Force. I might have a slight bias being aircrew but fret not as I sip cold beers, with hot women, sometimes in hot tubs, all over the world (63 countries so far) while serving god and country, collecting per diem. This is a fun argument however, I think the fact that a majority of my squadron is former dirt darts, ground pounders, jar heads and squids speaks volumes as to who has it better. Lifers know better. Chicks dig big jets and flight suits. KC-10 Extender YOUR HOLE IS OUR GOAL........PLUGGIN HOLES AND DROPPIN LOADS........of JP-8

New to 308 world and wondering is 1000rds for $600 is the usual price?

All I want for Xmas is my PTR91.

After watching Current TV I think they may have a market in Mexico?

Have you looked at Subaru at all? Im kinda biased since I have 3 but they have done me well. I have an 04 Forester, 07 Tribeca, and a 12 Impreza. It might just be my inner lesbo or Im hooked? I dont know a thing about Hyundai. The Subaru Legacy would prolly be the same sized car. My neighbor is 25 year Subaru employee. Thats good for about 1500 under MSRP and anything you can add can be purchased at COST. No strings or anything like that. Hes just a real cool dude who loves his company and promoting Subaru love. Ive gotten about 20 folks into Subarus so far.

Thanks for the welcome

I grew up in So Cal and we have had cops in our schools since the 80s. With all the Crips, Bloods, Essays, and Asian gangs the cops were easily out gunned by a few 9th graders. The BofA robbery changed that somewhat but they always used the injured gimpy desk riders or the sweating in air conditioning fatty for SROs. It took 9-11 to bring up arming peelots and its still not very popular.
