Why not call the thug then and tell them he needs to pay the deductibles or you will be taking him to court. And if you take him to court all you're going to get is a high point pistol and some baggy clothes.

Of those 4 mil jobs, 3.5 mil of them would have probably been temp jobs.

I would even venture to say that the average street rider wouldn't even use a 10 year old 600SS to its full potential. Prices always go up, but I remember the days of the 600SS being in the 7-10 range depending on what you were purchasing. I guess thats probably why I ride a 14 year old SV650. It does what I need, I still probably don't ride it to the full potential that it could be ridden.

I was told they're illegal, except for this: http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/5589.081 5589.081 Studded tires - prohibited acts. (A) For purposes of this section, "studded tire" means any tire designed for use on a vehicle and equipped with metal studs or studs of wear-resisting material that project beyond the tread of the traction surface of the tire; and "motor vehicle," "street or highway," "public safety vehicle," and "school bus" have the same meanings as given those terms in section 4511.01 of the Revised Code. (B) (1) Except as provided in division (B)(2) of this section, no person shall operate any motor vehicle, other than a public safety vehicle or school bus, that is equipped with studded tires on any street or highway in this state, except during the period extending from the first day of November of each year through the fifteenth day of April of the succeeding year. (2) A person may operate a motor vehicle that is equipped with retractable studded tires with the studs retracted at any time of the year, but shall operate the motor vehicle with the studs extended only as provided in division (B)(1) of this section. © This section does not apply to the use of tire chains when there is snow or ice on the streets or highways where such chains are being used, or the immediate vicinity thereof. Effective Date: 03-12-1975; 2008 SB44 08-22-2008

Must be one of those South Pole Elves. lol

Warren Buffett and his interests in BNSF had a significant role in lobby against the pipeline. The environmental aspect is to draw down to the lowest common denominator for the sheep in this country. http://www.ibtimes.com/warren-buffett-keystone-pipeline-cause-effect-1560093

Oh believe me….I get it. If I was the cop, I wouldn't want to face that 'piece' down not knowing it was a toy. More to my earlier post, I'm not blaming the shooter. With the clarity of 20:20 hindsight, I think a less abrupt approach by the officer driving the patrol car could have possibly prevented the tragedy. Still convinced it could have been avoided with a more judicious approach. I've seen the entire video posted previously, and while the kid appeared to be aggressive, he hadn't done anything more than bluster. I don't think a personal video cam worn by the cop would provide any additional information to vindicate the cop.

Maybe the ones from CO were the only ones stoned enough to think hanging out in the road was a good idea.

Yes, the Boomers have paid far more into SS than any other generation; when the Boomer generation matures--and that'll be happening imminently--it'll also collect more than any other previous generation. However, if you really feel the need to blame SS problems on the disparity of how much was paid in vs how much was collected, look no further than your parents and blame them. The amount they've collected and are collecting still vs what they paid in is FAR GREATER than any gen to come after. But if you have a smidgen of common sense and can do the math, turns out it isn't your parents that are the problem; it isn't the Boomers that are the problem, either--Boomers are the folks that are SOLELY responsible for the decades of SS fund surplus (if you believe we have one). It's our damn representatives than have ignored the obvious problem of underfunding for several decades, kicking the can down the road, and using the SS revenue for general fund items. Sure, there's a US government bond guarantee on the borrowed funds, but it's backed by the same government that is trillions of dollars in debt and have been running deficit budgets for years to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars. These are the folks we voted for….and voted for again….and blindly reelected again and again. We the voters have been paying them huge salaries to sit in Washington and accomplish NOTHING for years!!! Look in the mirror, folks. There's the problem.

Yup. The coyotes in our neighborhood "talk" with our Husky. I'm convinced they're plotting something.
