noreply@opendiscussion.ca (netwarden) — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 11:20:10 -0600

Transport Canada.wmv For now I travel virtually via Internet not air plain or jet so I guess that I'm lucky in that way. It would be nice to actually go places in the future, however the way things are going, that will never happen. Gone are the days of going wherever you want, when you want or even how you want.

In answer to the question, "How could there be a God, with all the suffering in the world?"..... This very common question is only asked for 2 reasons... One reason would be a cry for a deeper knowledge, and the other would be to seek commiseration in behaviors or transgressions that would otherwise naturally make one feel ashamed. This is a given, in that...

Be Cautious With Debit Cards When on Vacation........!!

noreply@opendiscussion.ca (Alan Wolf) — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 07:03:23 -0500

Hi Every Buddy, How are you all? Vacationers worried about carrying too much cash often take along a debit card, so they can access cash from their checking accounts as they need it. This can be a good move, or a poor one should the card be lost or stolen. In order to fall under the $50 maximum liability clause in your debit card...

My first impression of Tasers is that they should be standard equipment for all law enforcement, if I was ever at the wrong end of a confrontation with police, I'd far rather be taken down by a Taser rather than a gun. Guns are considered 'LETHAL FORCE' by law enforcement, if you haven't figured that out, it means being shot by a gun is likely to kill you...
