    Police officer fatally shot man thinking his gun was his Taser

    I am most ambivalent about this case. It's obvious it WAS an accident. Accidents happen. The likelihood of something bad happening goes up each and every time someone decides to engage in illegal activities, which it's obvious Mr. Harris was. However, this volunteer reservist is older than...

    "Never again"

    Long distance relationship. "Never again".

    Do you believe there is a God??

    As michonne and DrLeft have indicated, I, too, am fond of the eternal paradigm: 'Did God create Man...or did Man create God?'

    Bruno Mars

    I like him a LOT; he could, very well, be the heir apparent. He's got an awful lot of talent. *Rumors* have it he enjoys his drugs a little too much, though, so he may end up being a flash-in-the-pan or dead waaaaay too soon if he can't get a handle on it.

    Ever wanted to get away from it all?

    I agree. AFTER it gets a muted-down paint job.

    Hillary

    Ahhhh, give the media time; it's early in the process and not all of the 12+ Republican contenders have stepped up, yet. Not to worry...there'll be plenty of real/imaginary/factual/diversionary items posted about Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Mario Rubio, and Jeb Bush, too. That's how the Washington...

    Hillary

    I'm sure it was a marketing decision, based either on the fact that 3 names is too much for the average voter to remember and/or that since only 'feminazis' - and 'sissified men' - keep their name when adding their married name to the equation, 3 names would be too much for our patriarchal...

    Utterly pointless

    The Great 'A' Debate. Since the beginning of time, there has NEVER been a statement, argument or thought presented by one side of the debate to a member of the other side of the debate that made a participant say, "Oh. WOW. I see your point; I'm going to consider that and see how - if at all...

    Middle of the night phone calls.

    Ditto. Is this your first grandchild/granddaughter...or are you an old pro at this, now? What a beautiful family. Congrats, again. OT: Same as you, OP...it either meant something God-awful had occurred at work or something God-awful had happened to my child. Now that my *child* is...

    Hillary

    Nahhhh...factually-speaking, she announced her run just 3 hours ago. Prior to that, it was all speculation. I assumed the reason no one had even mentioned it, is they were all recovering from the massive heart-attacks/strokes they'd suffered upon hearing the news and electronic devices...

    Ghost hunting.

    @DrLeftover This online discussion board sure doesn't seem to be too used to people actually conversing back-and-forth much. It MUST come as a shock to several of the regulars. :!!:

    Hillary

    Not a word? She tweeted it 3 hours ago. "3 hours ago I'm running for president. Everyday Americans need a champion, and I want to be that champion. –H https://www.hillaryclinton.com" https://twitter.com/hillaryclinton

    So is the cat?

    For all the reasons everyone's posted they believe the cat is going down, it appears he's going UP, to me. Plus, I don't see a door behind him...I see the glare from the sunlight, outdoors. I wonder if there IS a "right" or "wrong" answer, or if it's simply an exercise in how much one's...

    Do you believe there is a God??

    I watched an interesting show on H2 on Easter where they discussed the how-fores and why-fores of the creation of The Ten Commandments, from a historical/social point of view. They made an interesting point that ALL of the 'laws' were made based on the importance of property-ownership, as the...

    Double Standard?

    I didn't think so. But, it's still there, in black-and-white...and I even bolded and enlarged it...so, according to The Proof's-in-the-Pudding Theory, it is. Not a problem. Double-standards while discussing double-standards just makes the whole topic so much more interesting.

    Double Standard?

    51% was a reference to the approximate quantity of women on the planet. Obviously, the point I did make (not merely the point that was "trying" to be made by you) did - in fact - "go right over your head". *Odd*. You're a mod on this site? Is it OK for mods to make personal attacks...

    Licence plate has been banned for obscene language – can you guess why?

    @Jazzy Agreed. But, rather than turn my computer screen upside-down or stand on my head while viewing it, because I couldn't see anything wrong with it, I wrote it out on a piece of scratch paper and flipped it over. It became extremely obvious what it was saying as soon as I did that...

    Vietnam vet surprised over reason for license-plate denial

    "CIB-69", when sounded out, says "See? I be 69[n]", unless somebody understands that "CIB" stands for "Combat Infantryman's Badge", which I doubt most people would. If "CIB-1969" is too many characters for Utah's regulations, I guess he's "SOL"...or needs to move to another state, if he feels...

    Licence plate has been banned for obscene language – can you guess why?

    Written out and flipped upside down, it says "Asshole". Yeah...that would be deemed offensive, I'm sure. At first glance, no...but if he ever flipped his vehicle, it would be obvious. Personally, I wouldn't have thought twice about it, had I seen it UPRIGHT on a vehicle.

    Vietnam vet surprised over reason for license-plate denial

    I seriously doubt that "CIB-1969" is taken. ~Voila~...problem solved. But, where's the drama - and press coverage - in actually finding a solution to one's *problems*, huh?
