Until you hear the WHOLE story, don't judge. Condolences out to the Ward Family.

One possibility: Stewart was close to the 45 car and running a higher line. In the dark, he may not have seen Ward until the last second. Jamming the brakes would just lock the wheels up, sliding Stewart right into Ward. Stewart may have gassed it while turning to the left in hopes of snapping the car to the left to…

huh? No the Marine Corps PFT is very standardized and is meant to be evaluated across the world the same way. 20 pull ups for max. 3 minimum. 100 crunches in 2 minutes max 60 to pass. However if you do minimum on all 3 your point score will be too low to pass. Then there is also the Combat Fitness Test which was…

Here's two I haven't seen here yet.

The real reason military shirts look good is not just the tuck. It's because we wear shirt stays. Straps that hold the bottom of shirt to the tops of the socks. I think I compressed my spine from wearing them tight while I was on the drill field. I used to make fun of a guy who I swear wore them with civilian…

an old can or something similar, filled with dirt, a bit of gas poured on it (easy to siphon from vehicle in a pinch), makes an instant little burner stove, just drop it in a little hole in the ground (which also helps conceal the flame) and heat up yer shaving water! :P

no one actually sleeps in that bed pictured. they sleep on top of it.

You know what...never mind. I'm arguing with someone on a comment board on the internet and it's really just a waste of time.

I knew I would get at least one person...

Because, being at work, you are all engaged in a similar activity. Now introduce a guy with a vacuum cleaner. I'm pretty sure the three of you will hate vacuum cleaner guy, but all the guys operating vacuum cleaners will be good with the noise, even when they are mopping.

I tried, but Metric people have no feet.

Now you are changing the equation to what is socially acceptable behavior. Clearly, from the tone of the comments, it is not socially acceptable behavior in the US to talk on the cell phone on common carriers (trains, planes, buses, etc.).

Ironic. Complaining about another's sense of entitlement because one feels entitled to talk on the phone in an enclosed space.

The fourth amendment does not cover what private businesses are allowed to do with the data they own (AKA the emails in your gmail account). This isnt some slowly encroaching line. If google cared about reporting crimes than FAR more idiots would be in jails for emailing their great robbery plans. If you want some…

I should be forced to wear headphones because you don't have the courtesy to speak soto voce and feel entitled to invade the sound space of those around you?

You've clearly never been on a train when multiple people are on the phone.

nope, i'm annoyed that i can hear any of it

Science trick: put a scantily clad young woman in the stillframe shot of your youtube video and men will feel compelled to click on it.

I find that people who are annoyed by half the conversation are for some reason trying to listen to something that doesn't involve them.

I think a creeper sending/receiving massive amounts of child porn is criminal. Google is a privately held company and has the ability to do whatever it wants with it's services (to a degree). If you don't like it...set up your own mail server. I think it's great that something like this is actually working - It only…
