Steven Colbert is better than Stewart, I think. Marginally.

I just strapped the R to a trailer, its going for a newused M56H. I just sent the bills for the install into my HC provider.
Its my kids car and he's under 26, so it's covered right? I think it falls under stress related mental health issues.

Now I have 5 Volvos, I must be insane. It definitely messes with your health.

I'm putting 'em on now as we speak, for camouflage. CT is very blue. WE are broke and they want to expand the budget to $19 billion. Can you say east coast California? It would be OK if we legalized pot, I could supplement my income with a nasty grow of some Chronic.

My fresh water fishing license went up to $40 from $20, plus now you need a salt water tag for an extra $10. It was $4 10 yrs ago. Plus they raised the fees for state park entry to ridiculous levels. Folks are just parking on access roads and walking in.

The law of diminishing returns is in full effect now. They dont have enough DEP agents to enforce existing laws and regs. I predict poaching goes thru the roof. And projected revenues will go way down. The real bitch is the money collected does not go into habitat or fisheries improvement, but into the general slush fund to pay more unfunded mandates and benies to state unions. Democrat super majority hard at work.

Thats a full season non resident right?

yeah with trout stamp

[Ihatespeedbumps]

Just purchased my TN resident liscence and it was $48 w/ trout stamp.

In 13 years of fishing in TN it has been checked once, and I fish often. I would pay $100 if there were more TWRA officers out and about.

I would like to point out that we have a republican super majority in this state.

I agree, if the money went to enforcement, habitat improvement and education i'd pay even more, but it dont.

I keep making the mistake of saying Dem this and Repub that. Neither one of them impressed me in my last 32 yrs of voting. I vote for what I think is right for me and my family.

Hey I heard Tennessee is a great growing state, with a relatively low cost of living . It's on my list for retirement relocation, so beware I may be living in a trailer park near you!

Way to get personal, your a dick.

I actually was not getting personal!! If you want to fill this forum full of your political views (even outside of the political sub-forum)that's great. On the same note, I don't want to hear about "how bad your pussy hurts" every time someone puts you in check. The political section of this forum is about a joke, hence the reason I hardly ever read it. Your vagina stink is finding its way outside of the "political section" and I am here to tell you to douche up!!

A Big Mac meal costs $7. Thats inexpensive? I can go to my local deli and get a great salad for less than that.
See health care threads. you be paying for hers.

Last time I check the sum of "who pays and does not pay their medical bills" goes into a calculation of what a hospital uses to figure costs across the board. In short, your already paying for anyone who does not want to pay their bill or can not afford to (with the exception of some states who will pitch in). You can either get everyone to pay, or you can deny people medical services. The notion that we are "just now" going to start paying for a certain portion of the populations health care is absurd at best. To support the current system your giving free health-care to whomever does not want to pay their bill while the rest of us foot the bill in our premiums.

so true

"Wow, I'm speechless. By the way the profit margin for insurance companies is about 3%."

Really?? Its almost too funny how much you distrust the government but are convinced that "Corporate America" are a convent full of virgin nuns who spend their weekends knitting and serving food at their local food banks. I am sure your right and there is no "bullshit at all with the numbers". I am also willing to bet the whole "temper tantrum" the industry is throwing has nothing to do with these correct numbers . Lets even go a step further and say "I bet half that shit you watch on TV and the fear based attacks have nothing to do with a bunch of fat cats cushioning their bank accounts with those numbers". I can order name brand prescription drugs from England, and have them delivered to me here in the US and its still cheaper then the co-pay on my prescription insurance. Your over inflated medical bills is actually just a fraction of what health insurance companies actually pays on the bill. In short, your 80-90% coverage really means 40-50% coverage= a system of bullshit that your convinced is honest. If the whole system of bullshit was not implemented there would less need for medical insurance, since more people could self pay and cut out the horseshit of the middle man.

"You obviously know how old I am, and yet dont at least acknowledge my life experience and education, so be it. And you judge me when you know nothing about me, typical." From you earlier post> "I frequently get tired of these lame debates with weak sauce arguments, no facts, and personal attacks. You,( not just Spanky) keep refusing to look at history, here and around the world, to see what will happen." So basically your saying don't generalize "because it sucks", at the same these tactics are used in your arguments??? Your 2 lbs of shit in a 1 lb bag !!!

I am aware of how old you are and believe your views of what the country needs would be best suited for the 1980's. Just like our government here in the US your too busy picking sides, bitching and pointing fingers instead of trying to fix a problem. I do not support either parties, but for the sake of argument; if I did support the Republican party my energy would be directed at raising hell within it due to their track record of doing very little to solve the problem.


"I have 2 kids, so I know all about Drs, and Med services."

That's funny I thought you were a Cadillac man insulated from everything that seems important in the subject matter. So I guess the whole reference to "IRS agents, Armageddon, and increase in insurance premiums" has nothing to do with you, and was just used to strike fear into others so you don't have to pay a bit more in taxes?

"I'm sure your a real big strapping young man, capable of kicking my asss"

I was not going there old timer!! I was actually going to challenge you to a game of shuffleboard at Carlisle to settle the matter. I was actually saying that if you think I am another sheltered, trust-fund brat who is going to be scared of you in person, you have another thing coming.

"Sorry about your sister, hope she gets help for her condition."

I will send her your regards, and thank you!!

"But I'm willing to bet I've smacked and been smacked by turds bigger and badder than you in my day"

You smack turds!?!?!?

"Yup thats me all I do is watch Beck. He's on the air because he lies. If you took some of the stuff these guys talk about and didnt dismiss it off hand, you might see some truths in there."

That's quite alright!! I rarely watch TV and when I do its not to be spoon feed someone else's political views who has no real ties with the common man, has a political agenda, is backed by contributions, and in part is employed by his/her ratings. Like I said if this is your idea of being "educated and in-touch with America" you should quit while your ahead!

" Basically I fear you not, and your intimidation is amateurish, if not juvenile. Old man is correct, but realize at 6ft and 220lbs, 15yrs of military, bouncing at bars, and various other nefarious incidents resulting in fisticuffs etc.over the last 32 yrs, not only can I take a punch, I'm on the plus side of the tally. I aint going down easy, little boy. Words dont scare me, I've had firearms in my face."


Your off your rocker!! Intimidation, juvenile???... ...then you include your resume for the next Rambo movie?!?!?! You should of posted up 8" x 10"s of you oiled and flexing with your wife wrapped around those pillars you call "thighs".

"You keep threatening to make me pay for my medical bills and your sieve of a brain keeps forgetting what your read, or you chose to be selective in your reading, which is disingenuous at best. One more time, just for you: I have a Cadillac plan, and wont be paying much. "

Ya you will, its called new taxes!!

"I keep making the mistake of saying Dem this and Repub that. Neither one of them impressed me in my last 32 yrs of voting. I vote for what I think is right for me and my family."

Amen!! it is all a big circus of bullshit!! I guess we should change your name to " the circus conductor".

Do me a favor and please send my regards to your wife. If she hears 1/10th of your pussy ache that we get from here on VS.... and she is still with you..... then she has to be one compassionate woman!!

[Pops Racer]

now your just boring me.

Its funny tho, I do my best to respect others views if presented in an intelligent factual way. So I guess I fail at that. As much as my pussy stank offends you, I realize that internet debate/conversation is fruitless. Like much else no one can be held accountable for their opinions or statements, so be it. And I really dont take much written hear seriously, its the interwebz dude.

By the way, I prefer horse shoes to shuffle board. Accompanied by cold, cheap beer, of course.

And if I oiled myself up like Rambo, I'd look like a greasy sumo wrestler, not very appealing.

Let me hear some more stuff about higher taxes. And lets see what happens when company's calculate their costs. You know that they dont pay the increase, the consumer does. You do also realize that back room deals were already cut with big pharma and the insurance companies? Nothing will change as far as they are concerned. The only thing that will change is availability of services and cost.

I'm just gonna sit back and watch now, my opinion and actions will not change anything. Its the law of the land, and good or bad we will all live with it.

Like I'll learn to live with you honey! I have a better sense of humor than you think.

My wife says hi, by the way. She thinks your very articulate and mostly on point. She says I cant go to Carlisle this year tho, its around our anniversary.

Captain E-gina, has left the building.

Your a good sport Wingnut!!! I thought I would just serve you up some hell for awhile . Yes....debating this shit is pointless!!! I am sure we both would like many things to change in the US and there are different paths to accomplish such.

[Pops Racer]

I try to keep it in perspective. I've got to have a thick skin and a good sense of humor to hang with my pack of nutbag friends, nothing slips by them, let me tell you!

Dont forget I'm not a new youngster in the system, I was born in the 50's, and I was lucky enough to be influenced by both sets of Grand parents and Great grandparents. They lived thru the depression and WWII, trainmen, coal miners, and steel workers, so my roots are kinda based on their views of America. Shit one of my Great grandfathers was a union organizer in New Haven during the '20's when he was working at Winchester Firearms. He was labeled as a Socialist and harassed for his positions on labor/ management. That man wrote letters to the editor of the local papers until he died at the age of 93!! They worked very hard to build our family, and were very self reliant. 19th century immigrant Irish Catholics mixed with Ukrainian Jews makes for a very hardy crew .

Listen, I dont make my claims lightly, I've been to most of the great cities of this country and been to Europe 3 times. I grew up in New Haven Ct during the Vietnam war, and watched the Black Panther trials going on downtown including the riots. I was a Teamster, Local 477 and state employee as a mental health care professional, (ironic, huh?) as a member of Local 1199, an SEIU shop. I prefer the Govt keep its nose outta our shit, because I have great faith in the populace to do the right thing if left alone. And I work hard for my cash, and would like to keep as much as possible. But I also recognize people are in need, and donate money and time to help when ever I can, and teach my sons the same kind of self reliance mixed with a healthy dose of compassion. I dont even own a gun anymore! (I do love the shooting sports however, just thought it wasn't prudent with 2 young kids in the house, I'm an avid outdoorsman and prefer fly fishing). Sounds like an application for a dating website, no?

I really thought that the way you responded was admirable, taking the time to address nearly every paragraph, most folks are to lazy to bother. No hard feelings, I hope you dont get nailed with any real high taxes!!

hahaha! thanks for taking my cheeky comment so well

Enforcement is a huge issue in this state, and a sore subject among enthusiasts, like myself.

We are a growing state and the cost of living is very low. We do have the highest sales tax in the nation (9.25%) but we have no income tax. Lots of opportunities for sportsmen here, and the weather is usually very nice most of the year. If you would like to know anything about TN, shoot me a PM, maybe I can help.

Do you have trout?

I'll fish for anything, but trouts on a fly is my fav.

I figure low stress and and fresh air is one of the best ways to stay healthy.

Yes we have trout. All of them are stocked until you get into east TN. There you can fish for the Appalachian strain Brook Trout as well as wild rainbows and browns. Until last year our tailwater fishing had been excellent in middle TN, but the rains or 09-10 have devastated some of the fishers here. Fortunately we have lots of smallmouth/largemouth/sunfish opportunities.

Good to know I'm speaking to a fellow fly fisherman.

I agree on the staying healthy and some fresh air. That is something I feel was missing from the entire healthcare debate in this country. The focus seemed to be only on care and not preventative care. A substantial portion of any health care could be reduced if individuals quite eating a diet full of absolute shit while sitting on the couch and getting fatter by the minute.
