Wouldn't it be better to create a new content stream with all the new postings in the forums you want to see as they occur? When you've done that you can bookmark the link to that page.

A dyslexic man walked into a bra.

But it's terminal.

There should be a clear line between real life and fantasy. You see what you want to see and ignore the rest... that's romantic love.

Right.Thanks. It's bad when people spoil a good song, isn't it? I'm haunted by that guitar now. Actually sounds like The Edge from way back.

Bleak but nice. The guitar in this one strikes a chord for me. What style is this group?

I brought up this idea earlier but I suggested a billionaire buying and destroying the gun manufacturer. This one suggests modifying its purpose.

It's probably generally accepted that most people have fantasy ideals and the unattainable celebrity represents that.

The effective concentration, in a fire, of halon does not hinder respiration. It's not like carbon dioxide in its action.

This luthier rubs and scrapes a black filler on his white oak guitars to bring out the grain. That pinkish hue will turn quite a dark brown with oxidation and light in a few years.:

Don't forget the effect of UV over time. What wood species are you working on? Got myself a Bosch Ergonomic Li-ion combi dril... fab! Just restored my Grandad's Stanley 130 double-ended plane... sharp! I also just got a double-sided diamond sharpening plate and having fun with that. Far superior and flatter than a whetstone. Japanese waterstones are the ultimate but I can't justify spending hundreds on them.

Yes, the mental health services need sorting and that's not going to happen in a private payer system. Nice to see all the noise being created at the moment by the younger generation. As we noted earlier, the great majority of Americans don't own weapons, so they can potentially shout louder than the NRA, and their other unreasonable supporters, if they put their collective mind to it. America, in reality, is not as gun-happy a nation, as first appears. It's the vocal minority that are making up for the silent majority. Hopefully that will change.

I'd put it down to inadequate/non-existent screening policies and lack of enforcement of those that are screened. A stable person with a large, secure collection is safer than a nutter with a single gun, so I don't think absolute numbers of weapons matters too much. I think the type of guns people keep matters and the type of people that have any gun matters.

If video games significantly caused more killings in Japan, potential killers will still find a way, even without guns. It has its moments but Japan seems pretty placid on the whole WRT violence statistics vs the US.

Given his previous position, his maturing realisation is to be applauded.

Those are the thoughts of the Republican half of that committee. The Dems on that committee are not happy at all.

Added to my shopping list.

What size compressor have you got? I want the smallest I can get away with for a 16 gauge 2" nailer.

On making mistakes: "A master woodworker is not someone who never makes mistakes. He is someone who is able to cover them up so that no one can tell." I'm asking myself: do I need a finish nailer?

There's a sizable bunch of clever people doing woodwork. Some luthiers, to name one group, can talk science with the best of them.

It's amazing that people are so interested in it and to such depth; I merely scratch the surface when I do etymological searches. I find such knowledge useful because I can often determine meanings of words I've never seen before from their components, which I might be familiar with.

What led you on to that little philological/etymological excursion?

For those it would benefit, it would be an altruistic act.

Just got to get all the shares.... and then commit financial hara-kiri.

So, a controlling shareholder can't destroy a company, if they wish? That's a shame in this particular circumstance.
