  1. You must have a hell of a insurance policy. Mine pays medical and property damage. I see nothing about paying the family to shut up at the trial.
  2. In a thread on Rev Wright!
  3. Yep. Put 100 monkeys at 100 typewriters and they will come up with this: " Now why would the press pick on such"reasonable" remarks?
  4. So you must have a pretty close relationship with VABills?
  5. How easy. I kept trying to work Syd Barrett into it.
  6. Hold the presses-absentee ballots from Florida just came in.
  7. Shame. I bet his Jerseys would have sold like crazy.
  8. I wish all the apologists here would please read post 63 to find out what happens to ordinary people.
  9. Very true,and has been for decades. The trick is the pension is figured on the last 2 years of your income,and if your close to retirement you put in for massive amounts of overtime to bump up the figure. Erie county sheriffs would work a normal shift,then put in 8 hours at a desk at the holding center. 16 hour days add up quick.
  10. What is it about a CRIMINAL charge do you not understand? It is not about paying people off. So by your logic I could kill a person with no family and it would be a 5 minute court case?"well he's dead,nothing to be done,defendant is free to go"
  11. Never a huge Clapton fan,except"I'm so glad" That has 20 seconds of pure guitar ecstasy.
  12. You seem to have very little knowledge of how the justice system works. A criminal act is a criminal act. it has defined penalty's regardless of the victims opinion. Charges were filed,he pleaded guilty,and how the victims "relatives" feel[maybe they hated him] is irrelevant. Besides,since the victim is dead, why do you think he feels he's getting his"victims rights"?
  13. OK. Not exactly comfortably numb though.
  14. I think I will stick with Jimmy Page
  15. I believe the phrase is "pay your debt to SOCIETY" not buy the victims family a new pool. Only in a civil case is cash a acceptable punishment. This was a CRIMINAL case.
  16. Very interesting. My brother got a Bachelor’s in chemistry at UCLA in the late 60's for $1000 a year tuition. Now I know about inflation,but those numbers are astonishing. But Buffalo cops RETIRE at $100,000 a year?
  17. Cabbie?
  18. Well I will give you credit for being honest. Do you have to blow into a mouth piece before using your computer?
  19. Sidney Poitier. Campaign 2012 starts now. As NBC would say"the less you know"
  20. Isn't that reserved for adultery in your country?
  21. Real close. 67 Mustang bought it in 74 from my Aunt in Hamburg. I had to rebuild the engine before I could even drive it. You could see the leaf springs though the trunk"floor" 7 year old car! They really built em to last back then.
  22. Why is this not pinned?
