I'm going to see the movie at our local drive in. That way I can enjoy a smoke or two while watching. M. Gipson

"Garcia -- that cinematic bomb-thrower -- has seriously jolted the mainstream media's fantasies and hallucinations of pre-Castro Cuba, of Che, of Fidel, and of Cubans in general." http://www.humaneventsonline.com/article.p...nt=yes&id=14511[/url] I'd be interested in hearing if Cuba was a...

I went to a sprint/nextel store yesterday. For around $100 there is a family plan for 3 numbers and GPS. And the phones I want are those mil spec outdoor rugged types. Not sure on the flip or brick ones yet, but, we are going to move on this soon. Thanks for the heads up........and the...

We've been making some progress through the counseling. Minor, but progress none-the-less. And I don't want to be a 'gotcha' parent. I want to re-trust him to do what he says and what he is supposed to do. The GPS would be for those broken trust times (i.e. out past curfew, not in school...

I've looked into Nextel so far. Do you know if this is available through them too, considering Sprint and Nextel are in bed now? Will continue to check this out on the way home today. I've got a Nextel store close to the house. I only hope there's someone more knowledgable than the typical...

This is the back up plan. Trying to deal with it in the positive first, then if needed, the negative. We're going to get the cellphones with GPS ability and do just what you suggested. Level with him so that all involved knows exactly what is at stake. Hopefully that will deal with it. If...

We have been in counseling for the past forever. With Parents now being billed backed for Juvenille Hall, placement, etc....I figure the investment for the GPS gig makes sense. Waiting for him to simply age out of our home is one answer, not one I'm interested in pursuing. Good kid making...

I get what you are saying about the morality, but from my perspective, it is worse off not trying to intervene. The situation is much more complicated and personal to get into. But, I do see your point. Unfortunately, though, if his Mom and I don't figure something out, he will be easily kept...

Haven't been around for awhile for obvious reasons. Am interested in tapping some info from those in the know. I appreciate any info that might be offered. I'm on the hunt for some type of GPS Tracking device. I've got a 16 year old that is on the verge of complete self-destruction. I know...

Franklin Chef 100ct This is mine. Wine on one side, cigars on the other. I set the thermostat at 64 and have a pound of 70% beads in the bottom. The sensor is against the back wall already and barely kicks on the colling unit. the fan does kick on fairly often to circulate the air. Got it...

Any press is good press. ;) I believe AVB had the most substantive post in this whole affair..... "Why was the thread removed?" Party on dudes. M. Gipson

Happy Birthday Greg. Enjoy. M. Gipson

So much for laying low. It took a couple of days to dig out. An unforseen bunker buster hit my porch.....and right in the middle of painting and stuff.........debris is strewn everywhere, so it'll take a bit to reorganize and reestablish order here at gawntrail, but when I do............. :0...

Agreed. Business, like armed conflict, has its price for victory/success. M. Gipson

I thought the same thing surfer. BTW bhaney, marcinko's a pussy. His machismo surpassed his operational value. Ask around. But, by all means, carry on. M. Gipson
