I am married, have a degree in Mechanical Engineering, and my three main hobbies are working on cars, hunting and homebrewing beer. Other hobbies include paintballing, target shooting (and teaching others safe, hunting, responsible handling of firearms), cooking, role playing games (dice and paper, not computer), reading (especially sci-fi and fantasy) and many others. I have many opinions, but if someone is asking for help I try to give objective, factual answers. My wife breeds Rhodesian Ridgebacks (dogs that were origionally bred in Africa to hunt big game, including lions). You'll probably encounter her in the pets area most often, as she knows quite a bit there. "92% of the teenage population has moved on to RAP.If YOU are part of the 8% that still headbang and mosh and will never leave the punk and metalhead way of life then copy and paste this" I'm no longer a teenager, and haven't been for some time, but I'm pretty sure that RAP generally still starts with a silent C.

  • OK Libs, you keep saying Obama's doing a great job, now can you prove it with actual facts.?

    I am so sick of hearing people say how wonderful Obama is without giving any factual backing for their statements whatsoever. Here's a free chance to tell me what's so wonderful about him, but you have to back it up with fact, not just opinion and emotion. He spent trillions of dollars that, as many economists predicted, did not help abate the recession or halt unemployment at 8% like he promised. This action has also set up a huge inflationary backlash that will hit sooner or later and will hit those living on savings the hardest (like your grandparents). This action has also cost this country over 20 TIMES the entire cost of the Iraq war and quadrupled the national debt. He has backpedalled severely from how soon he said the troops would be out of Iraq while he was campaigning, and adapted a plan much closer to the one he villified McCain for presenting. He's supporting two versions of a health care plan that will cost the average citizen much more than they are currently paying while providing rationed healthcare with much fewer choices for the insured (yes, I read the plans, did you?). These are some facts. Now, without any of the typical anti-conservative hate talk I'm used to seeing here, and with facts to back up what you claim, what good things has he done?
