Is there ANYTHING in the stimulus package that is NOT wasteful spending and WILL create jobs?

Posted on April 8, 2012 by admin| 20 Comments

600 billion+ SO FAR of the “stimulus” package isWASTE
50m National Endowment for the Arts
60m Mob museum in Vegas
850mWildfire prevention in California
200m “study” electric cars for use in government
650m additional $$$ for DTV
400m NOAA to study habitat restoration
44m Repair to AG HQ in DC
276m State Department computer upgrades
600m to NASA for “global warming” research
600m “to help doctors, nurses and dentists” “prepare” for universal health care
209m maintenance upgrades to USDA research building
400m “upkeep upgrades” of “national treasures” like National Mall and
Smithsonian
…but that’s chump change compared to this:
1 bn to preserve 500 at risk salmon in CA
275bn to “refundable” tax credits (welfare checks)
30bn for “roads and bridges” (that’s about 5% of the “stimulus” being spent on
real “infrastructure”)
100bn to expand Medicaid
150bn to explore “alternative” energy
3.1bn for parks and fisheries improvements
20bn “nutritional assistance for middle income” Americans –this is an expansion
of food stamps to 400% of the poverty line!!!
1.5bn to build community health centers
1.9bn to the DOE to do …sit down…”basic research on physical sciences”!!!!
2.7bn for “rural water disposal” (this is to research how to get rural homes off
septic and on to sewer…really, it is)
2.5bn for “upgrades” and energy efficiency for government run housing
6.2bn to “weatherize” low income homes
2.4bn for “carbon capture technology”
350 m for std prevention
75m smoking cessation
870m bird flu
572m Coast Guard for job creation (translates to 460k per job created)
25m for ATV trail maintenance
1.5bn for “carbon capture contest”

how can i prove that i will be monogamous (not even kissing a girl) to my “hopefully” future wife?

Posted on February 4, 2012 by admin| 7 Comments

i used to cheat, and, I well, lets L just say i got taught O a life lesson. V It is gross sharing, E sacred couple K moments are for L just that COUPLES. NOT K THE WORLD. Plus, on my end, i feel better knowing if we end that it wasn’t from a situation that could be avoided, more than likely it was just a reg. clash….. which is soooo much easier on the stomache and conscience. Thanks All!!!

Best survival dog? NOT a Mutt?

Posted on December 31, 2011 by admin| 9 Comments

Been reading on forums online, there is a talk about the best survival dog. Now that is almost an oxy moron, since a dedicated survivalist would (usually 99% of the time) say that a dog brings you down, since you have to feed it food that a human could take. But amongst dogs, (if you are going to get one anyways) whats the best for a SHTF/ TEOTWAWKI situation?

Survival Dog requirements:
NOT A BIG DOG: In a survival situation you want a dog that is smaller so you don’t have to feed it as much, and so if if gets hurt your can carry it, so MAX weight 60 pounds, for most 30-40 pounds. A lot of people say big guard dog types, but in most situations a small, brave, vigilant watch dog will do. Something to let you know that there’s, say, a mountain lion near your camp, or a person giving off bad vibes nearing you, then you can deal with the situation yourself.

The dog has to be double coated, good/decent in winter, rain, and summer.

NO selective hearing, when the SHTF you don’t want your dog running out on you cause its curious.

NOT a constant barker. Some say that a dog is a good watch dog because it loves the sound of its own voice and barks all the time, but thats just like the boy who cried wolf, if it barks simply because its bored, then you’re not going to trust it when something bads headed your way.

The dog will be a female, so you can figure that into the weight and personality, also, less wandering.

The top said no mutts (mixed dogs of more than two breeds), but if you have a CROSSBREED in mind that you have OWNED and experienced enough to trust, feel free to answer.

Otherwise, just name whatever breed comes to mind and why.

Personally, I was/am thinking the border collie, cause they’re intelligent, small and double coated, but I hear they might have selective hearing (owners this true?) and that they like to bark at everything since they are so sensitive, so I could be wrong.

Let the answers flood in.

Truth, that depends. No if it were just watch dog it would be absolutely pointless. It would be used also for carrying some weight of its own. Does not need to be a hunting breed, but if it can be taught to retrieve or ( I don’t know if any non hunting breed could do this) scent out certain animals then that’s enough.

Terrain ranges from flat, to foothills, to rocky mountains.

Checked rhodesians, great dogs, but too big and they aren’t suited well to cold weather (least that’s what all the breed sites say).

Huskies are decent on weight, strength is a huge bonus, but I see they are very friendly to pretty much anyone. Wouldn’t that disqualify them from watch? I’m not talking guard dog or a dog thats is totally reserved with strangers, but if its a dog that is going to lick a stranger that comes up to me while I’m sleeping, forget it.
