    Attention guys with women problems, here's your 2 'free' guns.

    I pass this along because if nobody had told me, I never would have known. The night before I got married my father-in-law gave me this peice of wisdom which I happily pass on to my fellow TFLers. When you get married, every new gun purchase will be scrutinized by the wife. Think I'm kidding...

    OT - FCC relaxing the rules?? There's nekkid ladies on my TV!

    This is not exactly a complaint. It just seems that the FCC has pretty much stopped enforcing standards on TV lately. Seems to be about a year or so now that I've been seeing a lot more nudity on cable. I was flipping through the channels the other day and caught fully-exposed breasts on E...

    John Stossel - Counter Revolutionary

    I like Stossel. I suspect he's still a liberal at heart, but at least he'll give consideration to points of view outside the party line. Funny how badly he gets treated by his peers once he strays from the official version of reality. Maybe we ought to give up the idea of impartial journalism...
