Wow, if memory serves those were both popular drugs when I was in school.

Me too! And because you made it from Pine, possibly a nice distressed paint finish in the future? Paint in color of choice, scuff edges and around hooks with sandpaper, apply gel wood stain over entire surface, then wipe off.

Read your welcome PM Zack.

To get the most creative gifts, you should reverse that order.

From a guy who knows a little bit about playing with a nice instrument all evening, congrat CJ.

Exactly!

Gun loving liberal? You my friend are as rare as the homosexual republican.

This!

Happy Birthday!

^ Sad, but true.

Also to verify, it wasn't this Mercury?

Had mine several years with no cable issues.

A heavy tax on guns and ammo should cover it. JUST KIDDING! Lighten up.

In fact there are a lot of things we can do to start. Problem is they will piss off as many people or more, than are angered by the thought of any gun legislation. Deny it, call it ridiculous, whatever, but it is my full belief (as well as many others) that violence in video games and movies most certainly has a desensitizing effect. Both parents at work and kids monitoring themselves is another contributing factor. Rampant "medicate the problem" ideologies, as well as basic things like quality of food and water all contribute to the problem. Mental illness is not all luck of the draw. We as a society are generating cases in many ways.

A car accident is exactly that...an accident. A mass killing is intentional. I do agree that acting during an emotional state can be a bad decision. All I'm asking is that we don't just put this aside once the fervor dies down. Anyone near my own age knows how drastically these acts have risen during our lifetime.

IMO if we turn our heads from 20 small children being slaughtered at school because "sometimes bad things happen", then we've committed a grave crime ourselves. I know that mental illness is the root here. However that could become as big of a concern for personal freedoms as gun control. #1) Getting a good grasps on who is and who isn't mentally ill is a monumental challenge. #2) I can easily see factions of our government using mental illness laws to determine who they believe is a threat to their own agendas, and then completely contorting those laws in their own favor. It's a problem with no easy solutions, and no solution that is going to be acceptable by all. However we have to purists, because learning to live with these events is something my conscience will not allow, and I hope many more feel the same.

DON'T !!! There is zero reason for you to feel the least bit guilty. Enjoy your free day!
