    Woman stabs 4 in Calif. Target store

    If California had laws permitting law-abiding citizens to carry guns, this never would've happened. It's a good thing that the off-duty police officer just happened to be in the store. The situation could've been much worse had he not been there.

    Gun owners: how many rounds should we have?

    Not sure if this question is off-topic but I was wondering if ammo had a shelf life? How long can ammo go unused before it's considered "bad" or no good? Is there a certain amount of time that ammo can sit on a shelf in a store or in storage? Just curious. By the way, Steinhauer, I live in...

    What's your dream musical instrument?

    Long live Neil Peart and Rush!! I'm actually a bass player but have dreamed of playing a drum set like that and I'd also like to play keyboards and a Moog Synthesizer. That would be a real trip!!

    Who's Irish

    Me!! I'm Irish and damn proud of it! I guess that explains the musical kinship I feel with U2 and Van Morrison. :)

    Oral skills = Auditory skills

    Not only that, but people also have a habit of speaking louder when they find out you're h/h. Jeez! I wish they wouldn't do that.

    Oral skills = Auditory skills

    CJB Hearing is not understanding. I second that! I can hear plenty but don't always understand what it is people are saying to me. A perfect analogy would be listening to a foreign language radio broadcast. I can hear a voice on the radio perfectly fine but I have no idea what they're...

    Trampling Gun Rights

    Reba and Jiro, Thanks so much for your responses and for sharing your thoughts with me. The main reason I'm thinking of gun ownership is that I live in a large city in Georgia and almost daily I read in the newspaper or see on the news about someone getting robbed, shot or assualted right...

    Trampling Gun Rights

    I've been mulling over the idea for some time now about getting a pistol for concealed carry and protection. My experience with guns is limited to the BB gun I had as a kid and the shooting at cans on a fencepost with a my brother in law's .22 rifle. I've read a few gun and ammo magazines and...

    why not aspire to speak?

    Sad but true. There's nothing wrong with mainstream schools. They serve a useful purpose, for the most part. It's the oral only approach that's hurt a lot of deaf kids.

    why not aspire to speak?

    I'm all for the "whatever works best for the child" approach. The big question here is WHO decides what's best for the child? There are countless stories of decisions made for a child by those who have no idea what's best for the child and, as a result, the child suffers. Parents make decisions...

    Upcoming Performance

    It went great! I felt honored to be the last person up on stage to close the show after 22 others had played before me. We played Collective Soul's "Shine" first and followed that with Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" as the grand finale. It was awesome and I had a blast! Hopefully I'll have the...
