    Somehow I think Shania got the best part of that deal! lol

    Nickelback sucks. They are an "acquired taste" like eating feces would be an "acquired taste". Real country music doesn't suck. Most of what is played on country radio today is pop music that has a few "ya'lls" and slide guitars mixed in here and there. And Shania Twain got it started, so she...

    I just got home from watching it and I am already planning on seeing it again this weekend. If you are a fan of westerns, or just great movies, you owe it to yourself to see this one. It is hands down the best western that has ever been made and the best Coen Brothers movie ever made. and that...

    I don't really have a lot of tight areas. the trees are pretty well spaced out about 15 feet apart. here's where we're at.... Toro (the Home Depot version) $2900 Toro Titan (the non-Home Depot version) $4600 Dixie Chopper $5500 (but they have 0% financing for 60 months, which I like) Exmark...

    best lawn mower?

    zero turn mower. I want to get a new one and really don't know which is the best. I have about 1.2 acre. I really would like a deck size as close to 50" as I can get. the ones I've been looking at so far John Deere 54", 23HP. $4000. I'm pretty sure this is about $1000 overpriced because of the...

    Tazing a streaker! Well he was clothed but I don't know what else to call him.

    The tazing was appropriate. I am a cop. 9 weeks ago, I got in a chase with a drug dealer and fell and broke my arm at the elbow, requiring surgery, permanent rods, and (so far) 2+ months of physical therapy. If I had had a tazer, I could've ended the chase before it got started and not have to...
