Several years ago we lost a 100 year old oak tree in our yard in a spring storm. After the chainsaws, we rented a shredder (or whatever they are called) for the branches and it spit out mulch faster than I could feed them. I pictured old used tires going thru the same process. Hoo boy...that would ...

Yes, I too have used both shake models and crank models. You have to shop well for the crank models-I had one that had too much resistance, you'd wear your arm out cranking it unless you had the arms of a construction laborer. (Xenon bulb based. Engineers were trying to power that electricity-thirst...

But gentlemen may wager. So if you deliver to this forum just one example of Colson 's quote actually proving true -- that is, of force directly bringing about not just external compliance but internal emotional commitment -- I will publicly eat crow. Not metaphorical crow; real crow. What's more, ...

Hi Tom - While I get your points, I take exception to the one about what a person would really do when threatened by a bad guy with a gun. The assumption you're making is that a person loses his/her conscience when threatened. I don't think I could shoot another human being, even if that other huma...

Hi, Please take this question as a genuine one: why, if legal and general gun-ownership offers such superior protection to American citizens are the gun-death rates so extraordinarily high in the States? What do those of you in favour of wider gun-ownership think the best solution would be? Even gr...

And, so long as the thread is revived, take a look at the findings for what happens when guns are restricted vs. when guns are not: As the police cleared the bodies from the Virginia Tech engineering building, the cell phones rang, in the eccentric varieties of ring tones, as parents kept trying to...

The items she didn't know -- for example, a brand of foot spray -- she ordered in the trash can. That's the core of Moses' question, I think. Basically her sorting logic is: Is it a small enough container to pass regs? [NO] --Confiscate [YES] Do I recognize the brand? [NO] -- Confiscate (you've got...

...are you watching the same video I'm watching? The one I just saw featured a fat man waking up next to a fat woman and getting the classic 'coyote ugly' expression. (instantly through my head: you aren't Fabio yourself, tubby!) He manages to sneak away, but catches sight of the photo on the mantel...

Um, I know I'm rather new at this whole brush and DE thing, but I HAVE been using the modern canned-goo-and-one-piece-throwaway-razor thing for about the last decade or so.

Truly an unbelievable video! Check out Lenora-from-Gommorah shaving the clueless guy at the end! I guess it's like the saying goes, what's a 2 at 10 is a 10 at 2! :P You know that was just another marketing trick: put a set of breasts like those in a plunging neckline right in his face (looks like ...

Now that was a good gov't worker! It's too bad US Customs and the TSA aren't run and staffed by clones of this guy. Wouldn't work. That would require grilling EVERY passenger going ANYWHERE with the two minute drill. With translators for every major language, or you'd have a LOT of lawsuits about h...

Hi all, newcomer to wet shaving here, just bought a Weishi. Just wanted to say: Major thanks to Cotton Blossom Crafts: they not only shipped it to me via a cheaper method than what their website lists, but when I opened the box, I found not only the razor, the box of Dorcos, and the brush, but two F...
