I do know FBI BAU agents. Not a single one of them is so irresponsible as to post possible leads or directions a case is taking on a public web site. Real BAU practitioners are not stupid people.

What you are, I don't know. What I do know is that you are in no way shape or form a LEO of any kind.

Bars or no bars, I've noticed that when only some phones have reception, they are invariably on the Verizon network. I can hear you now!

While I disagree with him, I did understand that the mis-spelling was intentional! Republic - con, as in conning the Republic.

In other words, he still had a chance. Congratulations to him and you. It truly is amazing what can be done these days, especially by cardiac physicians. It sounds like people made the right decisions all the way around.

Hospice is for when there is No Chance. No special doctor, no different rules that will allow a different treatment, no hope. Esophageal cancer that has metastasized to the lung, liver, kidneys and stomach. That is no chance. Lung cancer that follows throat cancer, on a patient that has maxed out radiation therapy, and can't take Chemotherapy because he is a diabetic. No Chance. Complete liver failure due to undiagnosed liver cancer too far advanced for a transplant. No Chance.

It sounds as if your grandfather had a chance, albeit a small one, and took it. Your family made the right decision. So did the families of those patients I mentioned above. With No chance to live, they took the opportunity to say goodbye, and end their lives gracefully.

Neither choice is wrong, just different.

I'm glad I'm not the only one with that thought. I have lost 4 people to cancer in the last 2 years, with two more diagnosed. Of the 4 that died, 3 chose home hospice. It was comforting for us and them to have that "goodbye" time. The 4th passed 4 days after his diagnosis. The other two were, fortunately, diagnosed early, and are both currently in remission.

My point there is a time to fight, and a time to live. Sometimes, living means dying with dignity, at home, with those who love you.

MY gold is in my home and land which I LEGALLY purchased. I did receive a loan. A FIXED INTEREST MORTGAGE. Which means my PERCENTAGE RATE will not change. I was offered a variable interest rate loan, wherein it was clearly explained that the interest rate could change dramatically over time. I was smart and GUTSY enough to turn away from that option even though (at the time) it had a much lower interest rate.

I also think very highly of Jill as all she has is GUTS and BLUSTER, She is HILARIUS! She actually believed she could get away with THEFT and FRAUD? Lying to the police? She should speak to Wesley Snipes to find out about how not to pay TAXES!

I tried to reply in a manner that you might UNDERSTAND.

They did this time Yakama tribe name was officially changed in 1994 to reflect the Indian pronunciation.
Yakima the place (city, river, county etc.) was left the same. As someone else stated above.

Yakima = Place
Yakama= Tribe or nation.

I have noticed, in my life, that people who run around naked in public, doing stupid things, are almost always people you do NOT want to see naked ........... ever ............. not even a little bit.

You know as in "My eyes! My eyes! My God they're melting!" kind of ugly. Just sayin'.

Yeah, you are missing something. First, there is no way that the truck was going fast enough for centrifugal force to be a factor. Second (and no I wasn't there, but I do have experience with heavy equipment, and have seen a few accidents). The more likely scenario is that the truck was moving slowly down the hill, got too far to the left and the wheels sunk into the ground. If he was loaded heavy, that would be all it took to tip the truck. I would guess, that this was a low speed rollover because of the appearance of the scene, and the fact that the poor soul was standing on the running board.
