I think our politics thread is stuck in a bit of a rut. I keep looking for a thread about something else but I haven't seen one. So I am starting one here.
This thread is about something else.

How about we do something for the troops based out of the local bases that have been deployed. Now that it is off season maybe one of you who own a vacation Rental house or condo off of 30A can donate a few days. My company will donate the cleaning and laundry. Lot's of those guys and gals have been deployed multiple times. Just a thought.

Didn't come on this thread to rant, but talking about afganistan. How long must the us army have the ****tiest rifle on the planet? It was the worst when I carried it over 40 years ago! It cost lives then, it cost lives now! How come big dollar weapon systems and smart bombs make money for the investor class that wave the flag, but we can't have a rifle that can protect the grunts! We need the M14 back!ak-47/74, cheap, simple, will not jam. copy that design. i believe galil did for the israeli army.

I know I've been laughing at that too! I always remember that scene where the pizza guy comes to the classroom and and Mr. Hand says "Did somebody order a pizza"
and Spicoli says "Right here dude"

I always wanted to do that to my Biology teacher.

Yes, I really like this thread in the political room about "something else"...it is better to laugh with strangers on Sowal (about Mr. Hand, Srgt. Carter, etc.) and find commonality there, than it is to create enemies of people you don't even know or will never meet in a pissing contest about politics! Whew!

Alpha Crab, I read somewhere else (can't remember where) that you are from Pennsylvania; there are other sowallers from PA (although, no longer posting - we had a going away party, however) - I wonder if you are related or know one another? Cute pic of you and your child, too. Cheers and welcome - you came in with both barrels loaded!
Again, welcome!

Dude, was just going to start a thread about that one!
WTF!!!
I hope the kid is safe and they get in a hell of a lot of trouble for doing such a horrible job of securing the balloon (and watching their kid).
In happier news, I just saw the cutest puppy ever!!! I ran into Geo and his new baby girl and she is SO adorable!

Did you get that "we're compelled to tell you that an earlier report by the AP that the boy had fallen out" is true. There is no one inside." How long did they know that??:roll:

So the kid isn't in the balloon ........................ which means a 6 year old has been unaccounted for for HOURS.
