It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Bluenose?  Bluetooth?  AAR awaited.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Firing rockets off of a schooner  ???
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

And here I thought that any firework that flew or exploded was illegal in VA. Or fun, that's definitely illegal here. Contemplating a 50 gallon contractor bag with oxy-acetylene, it's been awhile, and never with my current neighbors. And you want something to light that from a distance too.

It's weird it's illegal to set them off apparently it's not illegal to buy or sell them and I have a connection locally that sells them to me

And yet you go into the breach once more. I wonder, does your wife sit watching this holding your life insurance policy like a keno card?

My old roommate when I was drinking took out a policy on me. He called it a safe investment

I am blessed my wife recognizes my real,enjoyment and allows it. It's better than a Harley and a 19 year old girlfriend. From her point of view anyway
