yes, and the county claims it's losing 6-12 million a year over this... that's between 2 businesses. so for a savings of 3 mil a piece, they could probably relocate to just over the county line and still serve their existing customers. Then it's lose-lose.

ANY guarantee like that should be given the stinky goat eye and a large does of cynicism. I would never have bank my future on that because you know if there is anything different down to the type of door drim they installed, they would invalidate the guarantee.

I think I speak for most of hear when I say I am sick of this, gunning down cops that is. you can just see the absolute fatigue in Ed Troyer's countenance. My prayers go out to the deputies family and the sheriff's department.

I"m sure they were that's why I'm trusting the engineers on this one... I'm sure people had the same feelings when they saw the first steel sky scrapers go up and thought they would just crumple or fall over.
It's just a little disconcerting to me to see airliner wings flex that much, but I'm just a regular guy, not an aeronautical or materials engineer.

is it just me or does the site of the wings flexing that much make anybody else a bit queasy?
I know airliner wings are supposed to flex a certain amount but those seem to flex so that the tips are higher than the fuselage.
I'm willing to trust the engineers on this one but the look floppy to me.

ya know, I'm usually one to write cases like this off and think that the husband did it, but as a fellow weirdo that does random things and tends to shut up when faces with emotionally stressful things I have to give him the benefit of the doubt...

Yes it seems strange to leave at 12:30 am on a Sunday to go camping in freezing weather but perhaps he's done this before. is it stupid? yes irresponsible? yes because he ended up missing work and his kids could have froze. last time I checked this is still a free country and you can go camping at 12:30 am on a Sunday if you want to. His friends and family have come out and said that this was a thing that he did. He probably knows it sounds weird and coupled with the fact that his wife is gone and people are thinking he did it, when he gets interviewed his brain goes haywire. the same thing would probably happen to me.

I'm not saying he's not guilty and his current status as "person of interest" is warranted, but let more facts get uncovered before you hang your hat on the fact that you think its strange to go camping at 12:30 am on a sunday

why don't you just relax, don't worry about it and let people give what they want to who they want. It's none of your business.

It is for legal wrangling....
What's happening is not that the defendant is saying that they are innocent but rather "not guilty" of the charges as presented to the court by the prosecutor, even if he would admit that he did kill the officer.

This then forces the prosecutor to present the case that the defendant is in fact guilty and here's why beyond a shadow of a doubt.

The defendant says "not guilty" so their lawyers can at least present a number of points to provide that shadow of a doubt.

I think what we can take away from this is that in this society (at least for now) cheating on ones spouse (especially if there are children) is just about the most dirt-baggy thing you can do, as well it should be.
