Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

JYD lives across the street from the IRS?
He is the equivalent of a capo in the Indian Mob down in the city. Like the Italian mobsters before him he chooses to live up here and make his living down there. We got an earful about him when he bought the place from the Sheriff who got one from the FBI. He did a stretch upstate for hijacking when he was younger, got caught with a semi trailer full of swag in his warehouse that he couldn't explain. I keep an eye out for trucks going into his place, but the only ones I see are hauling cars. He is a personable sort, but never do business with him, or accept favors, as if I needed to be told that.

Reminds me of a guy I did some software-deglitching for down in Orange Couty/LA some years ago. He paid alright for the services rendered. But when he asked me to use his brand-new Explorer to pick up a package in San Diego , deliver it to him and keep the car and pink slip, I kinda got very polite and left the premises.....

A brand new explorer just to run a load of blow ( what else but) ? That seems excessively high a price for what they can get street kids to do for a fix and a couple of C notes. He must have been dipping into his own supply. Our boy is more likely to run horse than anything else, but he keeps that shit down in the city far away from were his kids play.

I was at Sam's the other day and was looking at this nice new Vizio 42" smart tv. Man, this thing is a great deal. Besides all the normal bells and whistles, it is fully capable of playing Netflix, getting your emails, searching the web, and surfing through thr latest forum posts. All this for under 500 bucks. I wouldn't buy it though, because I would rather find in in an auction and pay 1500.00 !!! :lol:

I have a Vizio 28" in the bedroom, works fine. Actually it might be a 32", I can't tell them apart anymore. Wildfire??? Are you packing the car with guns and ammo ready to bug out?

Smart move DG. The explorer wasn't for running the load, it was a downpayment on owning his very own programmer. Get you with some property you can't explain and you are his for good.

Some people are just crazy. There's a local ad here for a 'like new' 1916 Remington carbine with 'all the hard parts done'. Lets just say its totally ruined. And hes asking $800 because he knows how much the junk ones sell for.

Crack smokers and guns is a bad combo. That is how alot of bubbas are born i am guessing. First they ruin a valuble rifle and then thnk it is all better and ask way too much for their "fixed" abortion. :no: :no: :no: :no: :no: :bang:
