    Mercury Marine layoffs

    2-3 years ago there was a year long waiting list for new Merc outboards. Note that a 300hp, 4 stroke is about $28,000, not the crazy $90k of some extreme sized engine.

    brazil's problems?

    The Brazilians I have spoken to, and 100% sure it was a stolen election. Up north there is tremendous corruption from the narcos, plus there was most likely USA style vote stealing. The theft-in-chief is just trying to steal as many millions as possible, partly to stay in power and partly to...

    Probably 100k/year for docking plus security, etc. I worked in the marine repair business for many years.

    If you found your kid in such a situation, are you allowed to use deadly force? As the perp was trying to get back in the front seat and drive away, you would be stopping a kidnapping as well as stopping a continuation of the rape.

    So a RE firm owns all three coffee shops. In my experience, RE people can be quite greedy. Obviously not all, but many. They probably underpaid the workers, and this is what happens. Look at Henry Ford, he paid excellent wages to his workers, and the company flourished. Unions came about...

    That is a bad case of neurofibromatosis. Sometimes it is hereditary, sometimes not. Caused by tumors growing on the myelin sleeves around nerves.

    Psycho bitch stabs 3 year old to death

    Public hangings would definitely reduce the number of nutcase attacks.

    Yes, but one guy had a crowbar, and another had a look alike pistol. So he should be able to get off, but it would have been better if he waited until the started breaking in. I think he will get off, but the Oakland .gov had to make it look like they were "trying".

    If not for double standards they would have no standards at all.

    A big part of why this happened is WA, is that they have had 100% mail in balloting for almost 20 years there. One year a republican won the voting for the governor seat, but the dem challenger asked for a recount, but the repub. still one. The dem asked for a second recount, and they...

    As she is Jewish, her family probably got out once Hitler came into power. Those that left Germany late in the war often went to Argentina, and they were "not Jewish".

    That ain't no stockpile, that is not more than what is needed for a weekend in the desert.

    Looks like a Baha road trip. Did that eight times in my old van, plus a long trip to Panama. Back when I was not so employed.

    I have read that the he may have been taking photos of the work he did, so that he would get paid as a subcontractor. I think this is a much more likely scenario. Did the Chechen have tools in his truck, just not on him when he was taking photos? When the photos were viewed, were they of the...

    How many carry on vacation?

    If I was going to AZ, I would definitely carry if legal. Check to see if your state has reciprocity, or obtain an out of state AZ ccw license.

    Movie Theater Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

    I would rate them as: 1. Road Warrior 2. Mad Max 3. Fury Road. Too much stuff in it was not believable, such as the pig shit into fuel then run down the road at high speed. 4. Thunderdome, not enough of a story line. Look forward to Furiosa. Incidentally I just watch Road Warrior last...

    I had an ex-fiancé that looked like that, but she thought the world revolved around her. It was no fun in the end.

    Michigan going for the title of most corrupt public officials

    Letting officer Player slide on his actions is doing him no good. Now Player may be headed to prison, and lost his LEO career. His supervisors certainly are not leaders, just fellow thugs.

    Yes, but what is football? Is much of it hitting people as hard as possible? What about the other skills, running, passing, etc? If the league allowed heavy hits on players, so many would be injured temporarily or long term. Then the game degenerates into something like a clubbing fest, but...

    Acorn drop inside apartment building

    Two guys have to act tough, typical slum stuff. Big guy as well as the short one. Now one dead, and the other in prison for 30 years. When a friend moved to Arizona, he was shocked at how polite everyone was. That is because so many persons carry, you don't want to start anything.
