Get a satellite dish and watch and order from home. If you wait long enough, they show up on none premium channels for free. Plenty of other stuff to watch in the mean time, like Guns and Ammo TV. Personally, I'm in no hurry and can wait a few years to see it. If it is a bad movie, you get to see if faster.

As a sheep you have very limited choices. I'm glad he and his little lamb came out ok.

I’m with Liberty on this one. Go where you want, within reason. But be prepared.

As usual, I agree.

So this month robbers are hitting Blockbusters in Houston. Any business that collects a lot of cash is a robbery target. Convenience stores and liquor stores are usually hit, but sometimes robbers are imaginative.

You can get movies online, but you can't get your hair cut online.

I gotta think that staying home isn't the answer also. Whenever I am out doing anything I think about what I would do in certian situations. Such as, when I go to a resturaunt, I keep my back to a wall, and face the door. When I am anywhere, I watch people. The more you are out and learning, and running scenarios through your mind, the more prepared you will be in case of something happening. If you close yourself off, you will never be prepared for the "what if's". JMHO
I am also glad it worked out for this father and son.

No, you could always hire a para-military company to follow you around.

The fact of the matter is that the world is getting darker and darker because the hearts and minds of people are upon evil continually.

So, violent crime is going up and as such it pays to be careful where/when you go certain places.
Not that that is a fix all, but it helps.

I wasn't suggesting that we stay home all the time...I was just saying that we should choose carefully where we go.

I've noticed in the past few years that places where low income people hang out (of ALL races, not just minorities) seem to be ripe for violent crime so I'm more inclined to not go to those types of places.

Low income folks have the bad habit of thinking everybody owes them, thanks to a certain political party here in the US that keep telling them that rich people are rippin them off and stealing what's their's.

What a croc! Image
