Re: The Problem With Lab-Grown Diamonds

johnathin — Sat, 17 Jan 2015 10:44:25 -0000

It seems that creating synthetic diamonds for industrial uses are far more important than creating them for jewelry. You'd think women now days would be happier to have a blood diamond. They have something that someone died to get for them. If I could get a death certificate or a list of all the miners who died the year it was found, along with the grading of course, I'd pay top dollar. A rough stone with dried blood? Even better.

Re: Texas Mom Pizzeria Diaper Incident

A violation against a mother's right to raise her child? That is impossible because you don't raise your children at a Pizza joint. This disgusting trash did it in the open of a public place at a dinner table. I don't care if it was urine, feces, or a combination! It doesn't belong at the dinner table. Have you changed a diaper? Ever notice how they don't always hold it while you're changing them? I love this place even more now, they support the community, have made donations to the local Volunteer Fire Department, and have excellent food. How exactly did she plan on washing her hands? Nasty.

Re: Man shot, killed outside Cedar Park gun show

Just because you pass a background check doesn't mean you'll know how to handle a gun. Safety classes should also be required, something similar to the requirements of the CHL would be fine. If we had hunters education in junior high school, we might curb some of the accidental deaths.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm........Wut?!?!

So being stabbed by your classmate and bleeding to death is OK, but God forbid you get shot by someone...that would be uncalled for.

Please step in front of a bus.

You should sue both your parents and the school system that allowed you to move forward as an adult. Reading is a very important skill.

Re: Fire Dept. never obtained permits for work done on fire stations

johnathin — Fri, 13 Jun 2014 09:11:36 -0000

What people fail to realize is the Fire Fighters are probably the ones doing these things...they don't just put out fires, they are pretty handy around a home too.
These guys at the stations probably do them on their own to save time and taxpayer money. Filing for a permit and requesting money (that the budget most likely doesn't allow) for a BBQ Grill would be a waste of time because it's probably not a necessity to the City but the guys can all pitch in to get it done.

Look everyone, this issue is very simple. The all knowing and great professional firemen of Austin are mad because other fire fighters of lesser quality are coming into their sandbox and trying to play. Get your own sandbox, this is MINE! NO! MINE! MINE MINE MINE!!!
It is quite obvious that these firemen missed their childhood lessons of sharing.
In all seriousness, the city should cough up some more money to add fire stations in their own territory. I shouldn't have to wait longer, nor should I get a lesser quality fireman. Now I know these other ESD Fire Departments are probably perfectly capable and closer, but we can't use common sense and use the closest resources when it comes to playing with fire. We must raise taxes and build more fire stations and hire more union firemen!
In closing, squirting water is fun. I don't want someone who I don't know or trust to come to my bon fire and have all the fun.

So you're saying your dogs have their CHL? I have dogs too but their bark and bite doesn't work well against armed intruders.

"The zoo said Johari died quickly." However, Dylan Parker said, "for like 10 minutes ... waiting until it quit moving."
Who do we trust?

Carbon fiber hood, removable roof panel, fenders, doors and rear quarter panels remain composite. The underbody panels are made of "carbon-nano" composite and it makes use of a new aluminum frame

You do realize that Biden is next in line don't you? After that it's a glimmer of hope with Boehner, followed by a few worthless democrats, then Hagel our Republican Secretary of Defense, followed by a line of idiots...

Re: QB: Incognito was big brother for Martin

johnathin — Thu, 07 Nov 2013 11:59:54 -0000

That voicemail is awesome. I'm going to start treating my coworkers like that!! Thanks for the examples!

When I saw Office Linebacker Terry Tate on TV, I immediately implemented a new plan creating the position at work and we increased production ten fold. No one is late anymore but occasionally people still leave early...but now it's in an ambulance.

"if (Martin) had a problem with the way that (Incognito) was treating him, he had a funny way of showing it." Yup! Can't hack it? Leave and sue. That's the new way of doing things.

Re: HISD police officer fires gun at suspected car burglars

The windshield can change the course of the bullet, but not by much...
Start low but keep firing rapidly and you'll probably see your first shots low progressively moving up.
The point of the story is to empty your weapon. Why else do you carry extra magazines?

If we know they're going to do it, shouldn't we educate them on the risks and inform them on ways to cut those risks?
