    The Nanny State is at it again...

    Wayne, you live by the sensor, you die by the sensor. the USN realized they had become too dependent on GPS navigation and went back to stressing Celestial Navigation for a couple reasons... because you can't be totally dependent on electronics because they don't always work like they think...

    The Nanny State is at it again...

    and wonder why people even read some of the stuff.. for instance NFL just had their annual draft and there are news articles " grading the draft". I've known for a long time that if the people inside the team making the choices don't often get it right, why would anyone bother reading a...

    05 Jayco Escapade Refresh and Upgrades

    I had to let off 2 noise makers last night

I did speak to the neighbor Deputy, and he said he heard thru the grapevine they think they know who it is...
