We will have to agree to disagree , firearms in the *right* hands can/have/and do help , I have seen this firsthand , had to respond to the outcomes and been through it myself. Fences *can* help , but they are not a panacea , they are just one layer in a given defensive system , a decent dog...

Neither am I , beyond the basic fact that there needs to be a degree of balance , it's unfortunate that the inmates have gained control of the asylum on both sides of that issue. I have little respect for the NRA , nor do I have any degree of respect for the rabidly anti-firearms side. And while...

I fully understand the dynamics of rape , the fact is though that if the consequences were more severe and women were allowed more leeway in protecting themselves there would be less incidence of that or other rage based crimes. And nope I'm not suggesting more firearms in our society , what...

That's the most well known version. The song is generally credited to Hedy West in 1959 or '60 and was copyrighted by Aztal in '61 , the first widely released version came in '61 with The Journeymen. An example of how a song originally from the Folk Revival can move into the "Rock' ranks...

I'm late to this thread , a thank you to Meadow for splitting it off so as to foster a discussion. Pertinent to the discussion is the factor of the wide variations within both Blues and Jazz , within the context of the latter , and as I stated to Meadow prior , even to someone such as myself...

This is exactly correct.

Lets start with the latter. Perhaps you'd like to show us wherein I made a blanket indictment of the " PARTIES" , I believe what I stated is the fact that I detest our current crop of POLITICIANS , across the board without regard to party. Did I not? And nope I don't think the Boston...

The caveat though is that the Belvedere is only by the loosest stretch of the imagination a "street car". Lotsa fun to take money from the crate motor Chevy crowd and the " tuner car" import guys , though one does need to keep a close eye on certain segments of the latter , there ARE folks...

BUT , have you attempted to work on a modern car lately? Every one of the items above the individual with mere cursory knowledge can accomplish quite easily , not so much nowadays. To say nothing of fuel pumps you have to drop the tank to get to , the various smog systems tied into the CPU...

Of course you will.

Note that in the last you are stating pretty much what I've stated previously. And frankly Bob you really don't need to attempt to tell me much about the military and field definitions as regards i.e.d.s , you might be able to suss out why if you read carefully. I have previously stated...

The U.N.? Wow look Bob , I like your posts , I always have , since of course they are in general the voice of logic and reason. However the above which you cite has been out of date for quite some time and is generally sneered at within military circles. *PRACTICAL* result is what...

Uh huh , you post a " response based on opinion" and then when I cite incidents that are *fact* accuse me of doing the same. That's rich. Lemme ask you a question , have you ever at any time had to deal with i.e.d.s? And don't bother attempting to sidetrack into small arms , you're destined...

Uh HUH. Know a lot about it do you? Care to discuss IEDs with folks who have actually been in the field and faced them? Golly gee whiz , guess the Murragh building wasn't " mass destruction" was it , nor the Twin Towers? Or a long list of IRA and other bombings? I guess I better bail on this...

I didn't mean to imply annoyance on your part. As regards the second , the U.S marshals service initially shot Weaver's 14 year old son , yes the kid fired at them............after they shot his dog right in front of him , Kevin Harris and Sammy Weaver were drawn out of the cabin in the first...

I don't do Chevies , not that I haven't , just that I've windowed enough small block Chebies to fill a barn , both the Mopar and Ford small blocks are a better bas with a more favorable rod ratio and witnin reason better heads. Currently.....'65 Belvedere post car , mini-tubbed and subframed...

Certainly , and I assure you that I won't find your musical taste boring , it's most definitely a case of " each to their own"...........

Unfortunately that erosion is accelerating , exacerbated by the increasingly corrupt and ethically and morally bereft cadre resident inside the Beltway. There will come a time ( and it's rapidly approaching) wherein what resides on your bookshelves may well get you incarcerated or worse...

If you like Blues then there is quite a lot of Jazz you may well like , it's a broad genre with myriad segments/definitions within the genre , many of which are rather Blues-based. It's a given that certain styles of Bop or Free Jazz aren't to most folks taste , even to a fiend such as...
