The officer wrote that the incident happened at 12th street, where there is no light to cross the street. It actually happened on 11th street (3 blocks away) where there is a light to cross the street. Should I fight the ticket?

A little play on words here folks! This one's gotta be a winner, IF the FAA does not restrict the blimp to non populated areas for safety/terrorist concerns! I just found out about the blimp & was wondering...has any other candidate for public office ever tried a promotional blimp before? I think it would sure get attention. What really shocked me was the blimps owner is a Paul supporter & is reducing the cost of the blimp out of gratitude for representative Paul's campaign! Sounds super to me, let me know if this has ever happened before for a candidate in the US of A.

Years ago, I got my US passport by going to the passport office, standing in line for about 30 minutes, paying about $30 and poof, there it was, I was done. Now, I'm trying to get a passport for my daughter to take a class trip and not only will they make us wait about 3 weeks to get it, but it's going to cost almost $100 for the thing.

WHY does it cost so much? Where is that money going, what's the justification for charging so much? In this day of computer records readily available online, why should a mass produced little book with an instant photo require this much time and money to process, and who decided it was fair to charge that much?

I find it rather alarming.

If you're from another country, how was it there? Are passports expensive and slow to get?

I see a perfectly good reason for keeping the government out of religion, but why are they (and the left) so keen on keeping religion out of the government.
Pictures of Jesus must be taken down in public schools because if a Muslim walks by, it might offend him. I thouht that the Constitution meant they you can't descriminate religion, not block it out. The school did not prevent a pciture of Muhammad from being hung up, it's just that nobody wanted to hang a picture of him up.

And probably they forgot what their grandparents taught them, young and old. Especially, a woman who seems loving in public, a then when the doors close. You don't want to know. It would amaze you on many levels.

I was diagnosed with asthma in April of this year during my 4th week in AF bmt. I have NEVER had an asthma attack in my life. I was at chow had a chest pain and was sent to the ER. They ran a number of test including the methacoline challenge (a common asthma test) then asked me if i wanted to stay in...I said yes and still got discharged(My home life was terrible so I had nothing to lose by staying in). My re-entry code is a 4C which means I need a waiver to re-enlist. I take a pulmonary funtion test Monday and I was wondering what if that test shows that I have mild/moderate asthma. Will I be able to produce a waiver with that or are my military dreams over?

And how is it that Republicans claim that they are not racist but he is their Speaker?

Shouldn't he have been tossed out a long time ago?

He is far more capable of taking the country in a better direction than she is. At least we won't have to worry about the KKK running a muck because she will encourage that for sure.

I believe team Clinton is gonna be back in the house. America is ready to get it´s democratic government back. I think it´s very slow to think otherwise. All the republican party has done is screw up the country and put americans through third world circumstances. What do yall think?

When somebody says "last days," that means they expect things to be over within a few DAYS, weeks or, at most, months. When it doesn't happen in that time, it means they were wrong. Now, let's say you also think the world is a total of 6,000 years old. That would mean it has existed half again as long as when your traditions started ranting about "last days." Obviously, it was not the "last days," so why don't you give it up, get real, and pay attention to the life you're living now so that you might be decent to those around you?
