As I understand it they usually have leather laces hanging from one foot.

Is that one of the bridges in Vancouver BC?

How about monopods? They wouldn't be in anyone's way. Are they allowed? My only other option in a gun mount style tripod. I'm old and quite ill and my shakes make photography difficult.

VW used to install small gas heaters in their vehicles and when they worked they were fanfuckingtastic. If they were made more efficient and dependable I believe that would be the way to go in colder climates to keep your car warm while driving and even when you pop out of the car for quick errands the heater will…

"After Mercedes-Benz and other car companies spent millions of dollars lobbying Congress, lawmakers passed rules in 1988 that heavily restricted the importation of foreign cars."

I had heard that police fought against rear view mirrors when they were introduced because they didn't want people to see them sneaking up behind them. Don't know if it's an urban legend or not but it sure sounds like something the cops would do.

Carson was the best and I say this as a guy who was initially very pissed at him for replacing Jack Paar.

I floundered for the real reason but I think you may have hit it on the nose. He smelt pretty bad but in his defence there were no showers and just taking off an apron and washing your hands wouldn't have helped much.

A friend of mine from Ottawa did just that every day to get to his job at the Lapointe Fish Market. He said he always got a seat to himself on a packed bus and thought there was something fishy about that.

It really disgusts me when rich assholes steal from their poor employees secure in the knowledge that 99% of the time they'll get away with it and if caught chances are their only penalty will be being forced to pay what they actually owe. It makes me want to puke...right into their dinner.

Well that's where many men keep theirs.

That way you can legally tell a cop you only had the one drink.

Most militaries around the world have a Leave No Man Behind doctrine, but the IDF, the self proclaimed Most Moral Army In The World has a Leave Every Man Behind doctrine.

I'm sure there are some Health Board regs about uninspected food on the premises.

I've used a can of beans to incapacitate and scare off people in the past but it takes me a couple of hours to process them first.

Wasn't there a Volkswagen ad in the 70's where a Beetle raced a AA Fuelie at a drag strip and won when they measured the race to the last place the VW was before the Fuelie took off and blew past?

I cut off contact with my mother decades ago. There were a few awkward calls over the years but we never reconciled. She died recently and I feel no guilt whatsoever about not resuming contact with her. Why should my feelings change about someone when they die. If I didn't like them when they were alive why would I…

Ah yes the Saudis. Our allies. The same people who flew planes into the twin towers and the Pentagon. Also the only people allowed by President Bush to fly out of the US on the day after 9/11. And after Bush enabled the escape of the true perpetrators he attacked and destroyed an innocent country and tried to lay the…

Fuck you too you racist Jew.

As a Jew all you see is antisemitism. You miss all the other racism including your own. It's just human nature to see only what concerns you personally I guess.
