Unfortunately, you are correct. :-( Complain to your municipality, bruh.

AEP owns the lines in this area, and yes, that is a monopoly. However, it is regulated and approved by the gubmint. The cost to AEP is that they are considered a providor of last resort, meaning that, if FES goes out of business tomorrow, AEP HAS to be able to pick up all of their customers and provide power for them at the drop of a hat, regardless of what it costs for them to have this capacity ready at a moments notice. I continue to advocate that you folks, all of you, find an alternative supplier. Don't like AEP? DON'T BUY YOUR POWER FROM THEM. Yes, you will alway be paying them for distribution, but that is about 33 to 40 percent of your bill. Cutting a companies earning by 60+ percent will get SOMEONE'S attention.

The only advice I will give is this; if there is anything you need to say, anything greivance that needs aired and forgiven, anything you want hom to KNOW...do it. Do not be prideful or arrogant or hard hearted. Get the slate clean, brother. I know from personal experience that it will be better for ALL of you. I will be thinking of you, my man.

Freaking awesome.

Godspeed, Sir.

I read exactly this much... ...before I realized that you are the only voice of reason on this site for the "Wacky gun owner". Here's hoping you can undo all the damage Paul and Mitch have done in chatbox.

You sir, are a fool.

Little Sicily's, on Brice Rd.

ATI has more powerful cards for that money, but their drivers are fucking terrible. I would get the 660ti. You will be very happy with that, and will not require a PCU upgrade.

Congrats, my man.

Mind = blown.

To you and yours. Happy tidings to you.

1: The world ends tonight/tomorrow/at some point on the 21st of this year. 2: A human sets foot on Mars before 2023 (so, in the next ten years, for you math geniuses) 3: The Soviet Union is reformed, and invades the United States. 4: Comrade Obama sends the Feds out to collect and melt down all civilian owned "Assault Rifles". Poll would be helpful, mods. Thanks.

This. Sniping Mexican drug runners and hiding behind "The Border" is a recipe for gettign yuor shit pushed in by someon who gives WAY less of a fuck than you about everything.

Word.

Um, we have alreayd HAD several SHTF scenario's in our lifetime? East Coast Blackout 9/11 Indian Tsunami Japanese Tsunami Just to name a few. If you had been in any of those locales during that, I'm sure you would have appreciated having your firearms nearby. Seriously, if you think that disaster will never befall you, you are deranged.

Need to work on your form, bruh. You got a nasty hook. :-) Lols at the vid, though.

Chain it to a Camaro, have redneck pull off, decide once and for all who is better.

I can't find it, but there is a vid of a Golden Eagle straight pimping a Honey Badger and stealing it's food. Goes like this; Honey Badger eating goat carcass, Golden Eagle lands and walks over to goat carcass. Honey Badger loses his shit, goes medieval on Golden Eagle. Golden Eagle bitch slaps the fuck out of Honey badger with 3 foot wings and kicks him in the face with 4 inch talons. Honey Badger hides under goat carcass while Golden Eagle perches on top, grubbing.

Damn son. Gangster Eagle gives zero fucks.

Another interesting thought that you should check out is that many scientists believe that the entire core of Jupiter may be a diamond(!) the size of several earths. While the debate about Jupiters core remains unsolved, check THIS shit out... http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/technology/2012/10/a-planet-made-of-diamond-twice-the-size-of-earth/

OP, well done on the re-titling. Read the post this time. Good, but unoriginal, skewed, and probably derivative. I think you should follow up on this with some of your own research, and include a bibliography, so we can look into the statistics you have posted here for ourselves.

And instead, you are asking him for a favor. Quaint.

Arthur C. Clark postulated that the only thing that might keep humans from killing each other is our fascination with finding and going to new places... In that thread that asks what we would do with unlimited money, my answer would be, "Create a space exploration program, that WASN'T beholden to any government, and GET TO one of these other planets"
