I've found it a lot easier if you just obey the laws and don't do anything stupid and illegal like carrying a huge amount of weed in your vehicle. And then try to outrun the cops when they've got being stupid.

@ElevatorLady: I recall that when the Shah of Iran was overthrown the country was in turmoil and unrest. On a Saturday some time after the Shah's removal, some perps set a movie theater on fire while it was filled with people. Some people died in the ensuing fire. The authorities caught the perps that same Saturday, tried them the same day, sentenced them to death and executed on that very same Saturday. Talk about speedy "justice." Whew.........

@Mahatna-Gahndi: LOL.....Man, you're cracking me up with your comments. You must have been in a lot of different prisons in your time.

It's tragic that the pilot didn't notice the "Fuel Low" caution light. I flew helicopters a bit in the Army and had the "Fuel Low" caution light come on one time. I was in a Huey, flying stateside and there was a USAF base not too far away, but I opted to set the helicopter down in a farmer's field and request a fuel truck be sent to my location. It was embarrassing, but not tragic. I didn't even get ribbed all that much. Better to be safe than sorry!

If he runs he'll probably get elected because there are a lot of Weiners in NY!!!!

@THX1138: I agree with your comment. Reality stars and celebrities seem to count more than our military folks and in my opinion there's no comparison between what our military personnel do for our country and what the reality and celebs do for personal gain. There's no draft so the folks in the military are there voluntarily, and they accept the risks that go with being in the military, but my hat is off to them for what they do day-in and day-out,.

If that guy is only twenty-six years old, then I'm only nineteen years old...and I know my age isn't close to nineteen since I was born during WWII.

Being locked up for ten years with a bunch of other thugs is not how I would want to spend my time. Then again I don't go around robbing stores or people.

It's difficult reading about losing military personnel in a controversial "war" because they're always so young and generally just getting started in life. It's not unusual that they leave young children behind too. But it has to be said that they joined the military freely since there is no draft, and I presume they thought about the dangers associated with joining the military and being deployed to an area of combat. God bless them for their service and sacrifice. Rest in peace forever.

I had a temporary handicap parking permit last year following knee surgery. At the top of one side of the permit is the following: REMOVE BEFORE PLACING VEHICLE IN MOTION. That's why people don't drive around with the permit hanging from the rear view mirror and maybe it bothers some people to see a car without the permit already displayed pull into a handicap parking spot.

I suppose he'll now be the toast of the 'hood once the dust settles and he gets out of juvenile detention. He's getting a leg up on his buddies by stealing a police cruiser while other kids his age are playing with their electronic devices.

I saw Dr. Adams on two occasions, but something about his manner just didn't set well with me, and I never saw him again after that second appointment. I changed doctors. And I'm a man. Usually a patient either feels comfortable with a doctor or not....I just didn't feel comfortable with him.

One can see her personality shining through in that short video. It's clear the world has lost a tremendous individual; what a shame. The punks that murdered her should have been executed that day after they were convicted!!!! That wouldn't have been a loss to anyone!!!!!

If Congress is involved in "hush-hush" negotiations....that means it's bad news for the rest of us!!! What a bunch of barnyard manure!!!!!

America has become We the People, They the Congress!!!!!

Congratulations, Senior Pilot Flanigan. Well done. Best wishes to you in any future endeavors you decide to pursue; I'm sure you will do well.

Excellent........well done.......hats off to the Reverend Archibald Killian and to the memory of Donald Moon. Thanks to both for their service to the citizens of Athens.

Maybe Allen missed his buds back at the big house and wanted to go back to spend some more time with them.

Paul Ebow must think himself quite the stud...beating up his girlfriend. He's going to wave a knife at someone one of these days, and he's going to get a bullet in return. He's not smart in soooooo many ways.

@mpd0.59: No, I was not aware of that, but that's not as dangerous as appointing a muslim to be the head of our CIA.

@Millionexus: To each his own...and I'm not ashamed of anything other than some of the hack politicians that are in office!!!!!

I wonder if they buried Hugo in a Nomex suit? He'll need it where he's headed.

Wish we had a "Pinkey" judge here in Athens.

I wonder if they buried Chavez in Nomex????? He's going to need it.

@Pologize: I suppose you think it would be just dandy having a fox to guard the chickenhouse too. If I have to explain my concerns about having a muslim head the CIA, then you wouldn't understand my concerns anyway!!!!

Things are really going great in the obama administration: a muslim is now head of the CIA. Can it get any better than that??????????????
