Or any of you southern racists.
I had to set the idiot straight on that a time or two.
A racist is a racist.
There are a lot of liberal racists that hate guns.
Almost all liberals hate guns, because guns represent freedom from liberals.
Joemoney is a liberal idiot
I proclaim myself to be a gun toting southern conservative redneck.

Subject: This sounds like me:
They have finally found a diagnosis for my condition. Hooray! I have recently been diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. !
Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder...
This is how it goes: I decide to wash the car; I start toward the garage and notice the mail on the table. OK, I'm going to wash the car. But first I'm going to go through the mail. I lay the car keys down on the desk, discard the junk mail and I notice the trashcan is full. OK, I'll just put the bills on my desk and take the trashcan out, but since I'm going to be near the mailbox anyway, I'll pay these few bills first.
Now, where is my checkbook? Oops, there's only one check left. My extra checks are in my desk. Oh, there's the coke I was drinking. I'm going to look for those checks. But first I need to put my coke further away from the computer, oh maybe I'll pop it into the fridge to keep it cold for a while.
I head towards the kitchen and my flowers catch my eye, they need some water. I set the coke on the counter and uh oh! There are my glasses. I was looking for them all morning! I'd better put them away first. I fill a container with water and head for the flower pots - - Aaaaaagh!
Someone left the TV remote in the kitchen. We'll never think to look in the kitchen tonight when we want to watch television so I'd better put it back in the family room where it belongs.
I splash some water into the pots and onto the floor, I throw the remote onto a soft cushion on the sofa and I head back down the hall trying to figure out what it was I was going to do?
End of Day: The car isn't washed, the bills are unpaid, the coke is sitting on the kitchen counter, the flowers are half
watered, the checkbook still only has one check in it and I can't seem to find my car keys! When I try to figure out how come nothing got done today, I'm baffled because I KNOW I WAS BUSY ALL DAY LONG!!! I realize this is a serious condition and I'll get help, BUT FIRST I think I'll check my e-mail...
Please send this to everyone you know because I DON'T REMEMBER TO WHOM I'VE SENT THIS !!!
Have fun,

I thought the Burma Shave signs were only in the south and on the East Coast. I didn't know they were nationwide.
And I was not driving when I saw them, I am a relatively new member of the "Half Century Club".
Have fun,

One of my sisters just sent me this, it fits nicely here:
I thought this did bring back memories. Do you remember them?
For those of you who never saw the Burma Shave signs, a quick lesson. Before Interstates, when everyone drove the old 2-lane roads cross country, Burma Shave signs would be posted all over the countryside in Farmers' fields. They were small Red signs with white letters. Five signs,..... about 100 feet apart,..... each containing 1 line of a 4 line Couplet ... and the obligatory 5th sign identifying Burma Shave.

gp100357,
I seemed to notice from the start that THIS particular incident of campus shooting did not get quite the widespread press as others before it. How much of THAT was because a gun was used to stop the rampage????? Wanna' speculate??? (HAR!!)
You got it right. Even on the local radio stations that aired the news, they never mentioned that another student with a gun stopped the rampage. I really despise liberal idiots and the liberal media that cuts and pastes facts to support their agenda and only "borrows" from the real truth.
Oh well,
We can just,
Keep keeping on.
Have fun,

To all:
Gun Stops Gunman -
There was a shooting Wednesday at the Appalachian School of Law in Grundy, Va. Peter Odighizuwa, a 43-year-old naturalized U.S. citizen from Nigeria who'd flunked out of school allegedly went on a rampage and killed a dean, a professor and a fellow student with a .380-caliber pistol. Three other students were injured.
But the presence of another gun on campus almost certainly saved lives. MSNBC reports:
Students ended the rampage by confronting and then tackling the gunman, officials said.
"We saw the shooter, stopped at my vehicle and got out my handgun and started to approach Peter," Tracy Bridges, who helped subdue the shooter with other students, said Thursday on NBC's "Today" show. "At that time, Peter threw up his hands and threw his weapon down. Ted was the first person to have contact with Peter, and Peter hit him one time in the face, so there was a little bit of a struggle there."
The Salt Lake Tribune reports the Utah Legislature is considering repealing a rule that bans guns from the campuses of the Beehive State's nine state colleges and universities. In light of the Appalachian experience, allowing Utahns to carry legal, licensed concealed weapons on campus would seem an obviously good idea--but not to Bernie Machen, president of the University of Utah:
"Classrooms, libraries, dormitories and cafeterias are no place for lethal weapons," Machen told the panel of mostly pro-gun legislators. "Their very presence would interfere with the essential functions of a university."
Machen said the fear of guns could chill the open debate that is at the core of academic freedom, and he said the constitutional guarantee of free speech superseded any statute by the Legislature that could interfere with it.
The Founding Fathers somehow didn't notice the threat the Second Amendment poses to the First. Guess Machen is just smarter than James Madison.

I know maybe 3 or 4 guns owners, all of them being racist.
So you know 3 or 4 people that own guns and you are basing an opinion that the hundreds of millions that own guns are racist because of 3 or 4?
I told you that you were an idiot.
I am pretty sure I was right.
Have fun,

You asked me to answer your question and I did.
Now answer mine.
Do you even know any gun owners?
Are they racists?
What are you basing your opinion on?

I believe gun lovers are racist.
Now I do not have to prove you an idiot, you did it all by yourself.
You would not have the freedoms you now enjoy if not for the right of your forefathers to bear weapons.
England would still be in control.
The same England that has recently had crime escalate dramatically because they abolished the ability of private citizens to own and carry guns.
Only the criminals now carry.
I would normally say, "I believe you to be an idiot".
Now I say "You, sir, and again I use the term loosely, are a flaming idiot".

A Charlotte, NC lawyer purchased a box of very rare and expensive cigars then insured them against fire among other things. Within a month having smoked his entire stockpile of these great cigars and without yet having made even his first premium payment on the policy, the lawyer filed a claim against the insurance company.
In his claim, the lawyer stated the cigars were lost "in a series of small fires."
The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious reason: That the man had consumed the cigars in the normal fashion. The lawyer sued....and won! In delivering the ruling the judge agreed with the insurance company that the claim was frivolous.
The Judge stated nevertheless, that the lawyer held a policy from the company in which it had warranted that the cigars were insurable and also guaranteed that it would insure them against fire, without defining what is considered to be "unacceptable fire," and was obligated to pay the claim.
Rather than endure a lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the ruling and paid $15,000.00 to the lawyer for his loss of the rare cigars lost in the "fires."
NOW FOR THE BEST PART...
After the lawyer cashed the check, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of ARSON!!!!
With his own insurance claim and testimony from the previous case being used against him, the lawyer was convicted of intentionally burning his insured property and he was sentenced to 24 months in jail and ordered to pay a $24,000 fine.
This is a true story and was the 1st place winner in the recent
Criminal Lawyers Award Contest.

A man walked into the produce section of his local supermarket
and asked to buy half a head of lettuce. The boy working in that department told him that they only sold whole heads of lettuce. The man was so insistent that the boy decided to ask his manager about the matter.
Walking into the back room, the boy said to his manager, "Some
asshole wants to buy a half a head of lettuce." As he finished his sentence, he turned to find the man standing right behind him, so he added, "and this gentleman kindly offered to buy the other half."
The manager approved the deal and the man went on his way. Later the manager found the boy and said "I was impressed with the way you got yourself out of that situation earlier. We like people who think on their feet here.
Where are you from, son?"
"Canada, sir," the boy replied.
"Well, why did you leave Canada," the manager asked.
The boy said, "Sir, there's nothing but whores and hockey players up there."
"Really!" said the manager. "My wife is from Canada!"
The boy replied, "No shit??? Which team did she play for?"
Have fun,

Mary,
... I think it takes a lot more guts to post the negatives than the positives by far. Most people who post a negative get bashed off the boards with the attacks. You really have to be sure of your posts and yourself in order to stay and take the abuse.
It only takes a little guts when you are behind a keyboard.
I would meet anyone face to face to discuss the attributes, or the lack of, of a company.
Most of the hypesters I have encountered don't want to face anyone with facts on a one to one basis.
Stick to the facts.
The idiots have no defense.

I would like for you to institute a policy that the person with the trigger has to to post a reason for deleting the message.
A lot of deleted posts are well thought out and time consuming. Some hypester can delete the post with little regard for an innocent and unsuspecting investor.
There are far more hypesters than there are "realists".
Realists, Read Bashers.
I simply don't understand why someone would lable one a basher

I consider you a friend simply because you and I both consider jmhollen to be an enemy.
I believe hollen to be a penny stock hypeing idiot and also believe anyone that follows him and invests on his advice to be an idiot.
A lot of times if you say, "I believe you to be an idiot" instead of saying, "You are an idiot", it might help you stay out of trouble.
You don't have to "attack" anyone to "attack" their position on an issue.
You can say, "I believe you to be an idiot for that opinion".
Again, it is totally different to say, "You are an idiot".
I hope this helps.
And, I am not an attorney.
Have fun,

Man was put here to help man, not "Save the Critters"
Exactly.
God gave man domain over the critters to do with them as we see fit. The fact that we chose to domesticate some and not all was a decision that was made by our forefathers. I love it when a member of PETA will admit they eat fish, but not meat.
Hypocrites all.
Idiots all.
Do they truly believe that by being vegetarians they are "saving God's creatures"?
Aren't plants God's creatures also?
What idiots liberals are.

I agree that we can measure the difference between 1 lumen and 2 lumens, but my question is how many lumens equals "neutral" in an absolute, scientific sense. I might be wrong, but I don't think there is a correct answer.
Lumen is defined thusly:
lu·men [lmn ] (plural lu·mens, lu·mi·na [lmn ]) noun
1. PHYSICS MEASUREMENTS unit of luminous flux: the SI unit of luminous flux, equal to the amount of light crossing a unit area at a unit distance from a light source of luminous intensity of one candela. Symbol lm
2. ANATOMY space within tube: the space inside any tubular structure in the body, for example, an intestine, artery, or vein
3. BOTANY cavity in plant: the cavity within a plant cell wall
I believe you were using lumen as a measurement of light, so we now need to find a definition for "candela".
can·del·a [kan déll ] (plural can·del·as) noun
unit of light intensity: the basic SI unit of luminous intensity. Also called standard candle Symbol cd
Now I guess we need to go a little further.
I found this:
The Spectra Candela II and II-A meters measure illuminance levels in footcandles or lux and instantly calculates the contrast ratio of your particular lighting situation. Illuminance is the scientific name for the measurement of incident light. The unit of measurement is commonly the "footcandle" in the English system and the "lux" or "dekalux" (lux times 10) in the metric system.
The Spectra Candela meters are designed for simple, one handed convenience. Simply pressing one push-button enables the light level to be measured and displayed on the easy to read back-lit LCD. It reads out directly from 0.1 to 70,000 footcandles and 1 to 100,000 lux - a range encompassing illumination levels from dim indoor lighting to bright sunlight. The meter can store and recall up to two readings with the memory/recall function and covers a sensitivity range of almost one-million to one.

This proves we can measure lumens?
Now your statement:
I agree that we can measure the difference between 1 lumen and 2 lumens, but my question is how many lumens equals "neutral" in an absolute, scientific sense. I might be wrong, but I don't think there is a correct answer.
I guess one would have to be able to define "neutral" for me to be able to discuss your question.
Dark is the absence of light. Any light, or "lumen", adds light, thus, no more darkness.
In this scenario, there could be no "neutral". There is either dark, or light.
If am wrong I am too stupid to understand so we might as well quit this exchange of posts.
Please enlighten me.
Have fun,
Phil
