My post 3231, was in reference to my local building department relating to my shed build, any connotation otherwise is a function of false interpretation.

I had ours out to visit me. Was amusing. Questioned me on my shop building. Well the plot layout and pictures from closing 28 years ago show the building already in place. Where exactly did they get this information I just built it?

Guy was polite and took notes. Got a letter week later saying nothing was amiss. Really? LOL

So what would you like to do today that your country doesn't allow?

- CWWoodworking

Displaying equal admonishment of those breaking laws, rioting, destroying property and harming others vs. the single sided coverage presented by mainstream media.

Adherance to building and safety codes with stiff penalties for those in charge failing to do so.

Avoiding high taxes.

Avoiding draconian regulatory fees and policies that stifle progression and wages.

And since you asked, the freedom to choose to or to choose not to continue to bail out those who have been fiscally (among other things) irresponsible and have no have incentive to begin to act otherwise.

Your singling out small pockets of the country.

I'll single out mine-

0% unemployment
0% crime
0% drug problem
Taxes are reasonable
Housing is very reasonable
Houses and the town are extremely clean.
Schools are good and plentiful.
Probably have more cops than we need. Kinda like it that way.

There are great places in this country. If your not happy, move. Its pretty big country. Or leave. Free to do that too. And don't read media. Easy solution to that. I don't listen to either side. Too many agendas.
 
I will absolutely agree with you there are too many agendas, with plenty of wrong attached to each.

The EPA and federal bailouts, last I checked, aren't affecting or being paid for by "small pockets of the country".

Where there is money, power, and man there will be corruption. Our system has a lot of faults but it could be worse. I'm in one of the highest taxed areas in the country. There is always some excuse why they need more money but can never show where all the money goes. I put my sheds on sleepers and out of sight.
 
I had one of their songs on my playlist a few posts back. Alot of guitar riffs have been ripped off from these guys over the years. And they influenced all the Detroit rock bands that came after them.

Speaking of guitars, I was hangin out in my son´s room while he was practicing tonight. Currently he is working on:
Livin after midnight, Judas Priest
Fortunate Son, CCR
Blitzkrieg Bop, Ramones
Smoke on the water, Deep Purple

I am a fortunate >Dad.

Hey! How about some music from the Motor City Five (MC5). I grew up in the Midwest, AND I still have this album! This came out while I was still a senior in HS.

FTFY.

Factchecking myself: I stated above that every child born in denmark gets 12,000$ per year until age 18. That was incorrect, my conversion math was off, by alot. The correct sum is about 5000$ per year until age 18. It used to be more but they have been making cuts over the last decade.

Two guys are walking through the woods and come across this big deep hole.

"Wow…that looks deep." "Sure does… toss a few pebbles in there and see how deep it is."

They pick up a few pebbles and throw them in and wait… no noise.

"Jeeez. That is REALLY deep… here.. throw one of these great big rocks down there. Those should make a noise."

They pick up a couple of football-sized rocks and toss them into the hole and wait… and wait. Nothing.

They look at each other in amazement. One gets a determined look on his face and says, "Hey…over here in the weeds, there's a railroad tie. Help me carry it over here. When we toss THAT sucker in, it's GOTTA make some noise."

The two drag the heavy tie over to the hole and heave it in. Not a sound comes from the hole.

Suddenly, out of the nearby woods, a goat appears, running like the wind. It rushes toward the two men, then right past them, running as fast as it's legs will carry it. Suddenly it leaps in the air and into the hole.

The two men are astonished with what they've just seen…

Then, out of the woods comes a farmer who spots the men and ambles over.

"Hey… you two guys seen my goat out here?"

"You bet we did! Craziest thing I ever seen! It came running like crazy and just jumped into this hole!"

"Nah", says the farmer, "That couldn't have been MY goat. My goat was chained to a railroad tie."
 
Tonight- on the patio Open DJ night

Music- classical for easy listening. You can always change it- open DJ night- pick one song and post it then someone else. Like I tell the students in the class- "pick only G" or as they refer to it as the "clean version". Believe it or not the music artist today have both versions… and yes your little darling know the other…

Beverage- Pottz left the bar open- fully stocked

Food-
