lol. Practice what you preach...

Kramer, stick to guitar, cause when it comes to anything else, I haven't seen a word come out of your mouth that wasn't completely stupid and idiotic.

Kramer and Ryan and Glen, You guys need to chill out! You are taking this sh*t way to seriously!
As a fellow musician and American I have been reading your post and have been very impressed with your intellect and musicianship. All your positions are valid and appreciated even though I don't agree with some of your political beliefs that is what this great country is founded on your rights to say what you think (debate) checks and balances. Kramer please don't STFU it's cool man Really! :wink:

Haley this thread started out as a funny comment about snow.
how it got so carried away,,, don't know.
This IS very serious sh*t, and if the vocal minority,wants to go head to head,then so be it.
When people such as Craig or Ryan or myself start calling these people out as the lying ,stealing, horse theives, that they are,it seems that the vocal minority flees to fight another day.Notice I never told Kramer to STFU, he told himself to.
Just as a matter of point, our RADICAL president is backpedaling as fast as he can because at this point in time the only succesful program he has managed to push through is the anger of the American people.
THIS IS VERY SERIOUS sh*t!
By the way has the snow melted yet, down in the great state of TEXAS?
Got some horse thieves we need to ship that way ,cause you know how to deal with them properly. :lol:

George - Glad you're doing well, was wondering how things were going there, I think you got more of it than I did. My mother and sister in Lufkin got sleet and no snow at all, or little patches here and there. We got a bit over an inch, it was gone by dark.

I kinda enjoyed it, wasn't too cold to get out and take a few pics, my feet didn't freeze all day which is very unusual, but I didn't go out to Handy Brake and look at the ducks. Probably should have but I was worried about the other idiots on the road. I've driven in snow plenty times, I know how to handle it for the most part, but most of these people have seen snow maybe 4 times in their life and have absolutely no clue...for instance some dumbass passed me doing about 50 when I was cruising along at 35 or so, making sure I didn't spinout if I hit some ice. I'm glad he tried it before he got to the creek bridge a mile up the road...it had ice on it...YIKES!

Folk like you and I whom have had to make a living on the road learn the nuance of driving on hazardous surfaces.
Sometimes I wonder if experience has anything to do with the average driver. I know they seen rain before, and still these jackasses risk the safety of others to drive 80mph.
Some people are just selfish assholes, and these days most of them have a phone in their hand too. :?

Glen, I didn't mean to overstep my bounds there I was just trying to get everyone to calm down a bit with the name calling and all. Send those horse thieves down here in Texas we have a saying "Git A Rope" LMAO!
Anyway I am such a flat lander when there is any and I mean any snow on the ground this redneck don't go anywhere! I am 51 years old and I think I have seen snow about 6 times in my life. Down here on the Texas gulf coast it is extemely rare for it to snow. We didn't get any of the snow but they are saying snow flurries tonight just north of Houston which is about 35 miles north of us.
I will say this about Texas if all you have seen is West Texas there is a lot more than that. Up where Sans lives there is some beautiful country, kind of small town America. The Texas Hill country is absolutely breath taking to me during the spring when the temperature is mild the ground becomes blanketed with Blue Bonnets and Indian paint Brushes these are wild Texas flowers. When you see that site for the first time there is no doubt in your mind you are in gods country. Texas is a beautiful state and has a little bit of all kinds of terrain. All the other states that I have been in have beauty to offer as well. There are places in Arkansas that I have been and without a doubt Gods Country. :D

Ah yes. Darthboma of the "Dark Force".

Look at the criminals he as appointed so far on his own, filling newly created positions of power not ratified anywhere. Appointments outside of constitutional law. And look how they are wielding their power against the American people without them even being aware of what is going on. Look at some of the czars, look at their idealogical views , look where they came from.

He smiles while twisting the knife in the heart of America, and fools smile back and wish him well. He proclaims things that aren't, as though they are, and every statement from his mouth is a lie. His puppet news media, his prophets of the propaganda machine, say all is well, he is good for us, let us protect his reign. He is making everything better. Some are aware of what he is really doing. But they are crying out to deaf ears.

And why do others sit by idly watching this group of Chicago thugs take freedom away from the American people they were elected to represent... NOT rule over? What kind of deals are they promised under some new world order or whatever? Where are Skywalker and the rebel forces?

In my opinion, this is not going to end without blood shed at some point.

And I do hope I am wrong. I would much rather be a wacko than correct in my assumptions. :twisted:

And to stay on topic, we seem to get snow 4 out of 7 days so far this winter. It can't melt. I have ice barriers blocking my driveway that are over 3' high. And it is higher than, about 4-5 foot high in my driveway. This winter sucks.

SANS you are so right. In 36 years of driving I have been involved in one accident. Icy roads ,I was stopped, and I saw him coming around a curve at a speed that was to fast. At15mph he slammed into me and I was on the side of the road. All I can say is the impact standing still was tremendous,older cars in those days didn't absorb impact that well. I have had oil trucks in places I couldn't walk into,[left me wondering how to get back out].The #1 thing that scares me the most about driving in snow,,, is the other guy. I learned that lesson the hard way when I was 19.
As far as cell phones and all driver distractions my sad story is one of my customers 21 year old daughter, she took her eyes off the road to check her GPS,she crossed the line head on into some other guy at 60 mph. She lived , he didn't. she was pretty broken up physically but even more now is the guilt she lives with everyday....In a GPS moment she took away every thing that man was and everything might have become.
Please hang up and drive,,,pretty please with sugar on top.

Unless you are going to tie your left hands together and go at each other with machetes, it's pointless to get really mad over the internet.

I ought to know. lol

Yep. This is one of the nastiest winters I've ever seen. I tried to dig out my elderly neighbor, but it was beyond my ability after the plows packed it so tight & so high. I did manage to get her some groceries, though, & she eventually got plowed out. My son's car, which has been parked out front since he hit that deer on Thanksgiving Day, was moved about 3 feet by a snowplow, & I have no clue how much damage it incurred. Of course no one's claiming the act, so I'll have to do some investigating to find the culprit to get the thing fixed.

My customer wants me to rebuild that gazebo roof, so at least there's work on the horizan if & when the weather lets up. There's bound to be lots of other stuff to be done, as well, as the weather beats the hell out of ppl's homes.

I've been talking with some of the local guys about starting up our own corp to compete with Lowes & such, but thus far not many seem interested at all.

I sure am looking forward to tonight's open mic. I haven't stepped on a stage yet this year. I'm actually a lil nervous.

Of course, tomorrow I get to drive the wife & son to work again, & deal with...you guessed it...SNOW!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

LOL I only call you that after you preceeded to insult me in what is it now, 3 different threads?

Well what have YOU contributed to ANYTHING around here except vomiting up insults? Have you typed ONE single sentence that offers anything except venom?

Quite frankly, you are throwing insult after insult at me, with no foundation, then get all vaginal when I throw one back.

Good luck with your period.

You didn't say that insult to me, Kramer...It was to Glen, I believe. So yeah, you've talked that way to more than one person. So don't tell me how to speak.

People like you are scum. Not worthy of living in this country...You openly choose to be liberal...to be stupid...to be ignorant. You openly go against the constitution and the foundations of this country. I consider you treasonous.

I thought you weren't gonna kill your buzz any more,,Kramer......
It is so simple and you are so angry.....
Once you tell your big govt on all levels, That you want them to stop taking ALLLLLLL your money away and wasting it, your life will completely turn around.
I just don't understand people like you, that are happy when out of control govt takes so much away you can't pay your bills.
Is this the cost of trying to follow some higher ideals?
Well the news is this YOUR GOVT IS STEALING YOUR LIFE AWAY,ALL THE TIME THEY PAT YOU ON THE BACK.
Do you really like people stealing from you? Call 911 , they are govt .DO you like having YOUR money WASTED by someone in power. Big govt does NOT have the checks and balances that all the Evil Corps have,Govt can just pass new laws. Corps have to SHOW A PROFIT or else they go OUT of business.

WHAT you don't get is that I'm actually on your side.I want you to grow and prosper and succeed. But you keep letting people in govt on ALL LEVELS take your money away, when are you gonna stop this practice.

Vote for me and I Promise free healthcare for everyone, no one family shall ever make less than $100000, Gas and energy will be FREE, Life insurance and homeowners will be covered free, 2 months of free vacation to any where in the world[Disney recomended] And most of all I promise WORLD PEACE, because it hurts my feelings terrorists don't like us.
All you gotta do is send me a check for $10.95 and I will send you this really neat plastic decoder ring.

I have to end this right now, but I will be right back with some breaking
local news about how out of control our govt is .

Ya gotta have a job before you can make all that money for them to take it away, Glen. Ain't none o' them job things been seen in these parts since god's old dog was a pup, 'less you wanna work at Micky D's. I don't think Wally World is even hirin' at this point. Lowes just had another lay off, & they're making thier part-timers pull double shifts. Will that make them full timers?

This is the 1st time in my life I've seen mostly middle aged ppl working at the grocery stores. They don't hire kids anymore. That, for me, tells me EXACTLY how bad things are, when I see a 40 year old man pushing a long line of carts into the store.

Fast food? Again, mostly ppl from 30 to 60 years old.

Gas stations? 20-somethings on up to retirement age.

Convenience stores? Mostly middle aged ppl.

Gee...ppl ARE working, aren't they? Things MUST be getting better, right?

Look around your area to see just how "great" the economy really is, the vast improvements we're all making. "They" like to say that getting ppl back to work is their #1 priority. What they don't say is that don't care what kind of sh*t job you hafta get, cuz as long as you're working, things are going along just great, right? They also don't tell us how many of these jobs are part time, or how many of these jobs bring in enough to actually live on, even in some dumpy dangerous apartment complex in drug-selling country, like gov't subsidized housing...

How many ppl have been reduced to these jobs, to this new life style, thanks to the efforts of our leaders from Reagan on? How many ppl have lost thier jobs to out-sourcing? To thier companies moving? To small business collapse?

Look around & get back to me on that, whether you're liberal or conservative, & then tell me what regular folks are supposed to do just to get by, & if it's right or not.

None of the ppl I know are out buying big screen TV's or going out to dinner once a month, or hitting the movies or anything like they did just 3 years ago. We are in the direst of straits, no matter how much you'd like to sugar coat it or tell me that it's the ppl's fault things are so bad. I ain't buying into it.

Theft is at an all-time high in my area. I've been ripped off myself, for over $500 worth of badly needed tools. I expect it's gonna get way worse very soon ,too. I wonder if there's a job for a 55 year old guy in law enforcement, so I can protect myself & my neighbors...
