    This band is GOOD. If you haven't given them a listen, I suggest you do.

    Laws for each State, and even within each jurisdiction, differ. Some judges may consider that reckless driving, others would not. Most judges require that there be a collection of dangerous moving violations before they will allow a conviction for reckless driving. In Texas, it is not lawfull to arrest soley for a speeding violation unless the suspect refuses to sign the promise to appear on the citation.

     

    Thanks for clearing that up for me.

    I have started a Survival Football group on Yahoo. I have never played before but it sounds like fun. You pick the winner from 1 NFL game each week. If you pick the wrong team 3 times you're done. If anyone on here would like to join feel free. We only have 6 people in there now and I would like to have at least 20. Go to Yahoo, find Survial Football, and click on Join A Private Group.

    848 mile golf course

    in Golf

    Posted

    MELBOURNE (AFP) – The world’s longest golf course, stretching along 1,365 kilometers (848 miles) of desert highway with holes at 18 towns and service stations, is to open in Australia this year, organizers said Tuesday.

     

    The Nullarbor Links, which will span two time zones and measure more than the entire length of Britain, is expected to be completed next month and will host its inaugural tournament on October 22.

     

    “We’re very excited about it. It’s been a long time coming and a lot of effort,” project chairman Don Harrington told AFP.

     

    “This is the longest golf course in the world. It’s unique terrain, there’s something for everybody.”

     

    The course, conceived five years ago “over a couple of beers,” is meant to attract tourists to the Eyre Highway which traverses the desolate Nullarbor Plain and hugs part of Australia’s southern coastline.

     

    Golfers will stop at one roadhouse, play a hole, then drive on to the next tee—100 kilometers down the road in some cases. The par-71 course will take three or four days to complete with each player awarded a certificate.

     

    Each hole will showcase a local attraction, from whale-watching to ancient fossil beds and a working sheep station, and include sights such as the Big Kangaroo statue at Border Village straddling South and Western Australia.

     

    “There’s a lot of history and you can see all of that on a golf course,” Harrington said.

     

    “Both Australian tourists and golfing enthusiasts around the world have shown support for what we’re doing.”

     

    The course was the brainchild of Bob Bongiorno, who was managing a roadhouse at remote Balladonia when he came up with the idea.

     

    Bongiorno, now living in Kalgoorlie at the course’s western end, said he tried hitting a few #### when he first moved into the Outback but got sick of encountering spiders when trying to retrieve them.

     

    There should be no such hazards on the synthetic greens of the Nullarbor Links, although golfers who hit a stray shot into the desert will face a monster sand trap. (Yahoo)

     

     

     

     

    That would be awesome to say you have played that.

    I just don't get people that can be cruel to animals. I am a huge animal lover and I will never understand these kinds of people. I had a pit bull show up at my house about a year ago who had obviously been in fights. I'm assuming she didn't fight too well and they dumped her. After getting used to me she is the sweetest dog I have ever had. All she wants to do is come in the house, let you hold her like a baby, and go to sleep. She is very skidish around people she doesn't know but that's to be expected. I would love to take these people out and beat the holy hell out of them that force these mean acts onto dogs.

    ANTS! Who has them?

    I had them real bad in my house. I went down to Lowe's and bought Ortho Max Home Defense spray. Sprayed it inside and out. It's been 3 days and I haven't seen any ants. Actually I haven't seen any crawling things anywhere. I'm sure it's safe to use around kids and pets. I'd check into it.
