I bought a relatively small RV at retirement, and we did a good deal within a three state area of Virginia for a couple years, three/four day trips at a time. The best advice I can offer is to subscribe to a few of the many forums that are available. Great advice on do's and do nots from people actually doing it. Everything from tow vehicle horsepower to internet issues to countless other issues that come up, as well as great recommendations on where to go. Scores of folks pointing out mistakes made, so you don't. Great communities and priceless info in those forums.

At the end of camp/pre season, I judge the talent of the team, to some extent, on who they cut vs. who they kept last year. Hamlin is the guy I've been waiting for to be released. Great guy. Great story, but always behind the play and not a difference maker in any way. I get that he fulfills a trusted role, but if we want this defense to stand out, I would be more confident in someone who shows more.

Courier Express paperboy for three years. The vindication continues.

A little short story about that Richard Reid shoe bomber thing, Paris to Miami flight. I flew a trip with the the first officer who dealt with Reid once the passengers had him zip tied to the seat, which was much more difficult than expected. He was talking to to Reid had the shoes in his hands and had no idea what the deal was so he brought them up to the cockpit. So the three guys are sitting in their seats on the flight deck, and looking at them and one of them figures out it's a bomb when they note the wiring. Anyway, the captain shouts "Get those things out of here," which the the spare First Officer does. He told me he couldn't believe how stupid he was to bring them up to the cockpit, but never gave it a second thought. There's even more to the story after they landed in Boston and watched the police screw around until they finally figured out it was a bomb.

I often wonder why people who seem to think things are heading bad don't simply short the $, short the S&P, short the OEX and the bond market instead of posting here. Just go with your feelings and make some money instead of posting this crap.

I'll wait for the end game on this before judgement. Not handled well, and yet to play out, but the unfair nonsense that existed needed to be addressed.

Simple answer. A liar. (What is a self inflated made)?

I called you a liar because you lied. Is that clear? Should be.

I often wonder what the response would be if the Trump Administration actually reported to the American people the gross tariff and other trade disadvantages the American worker lived under prior to this ill presented tariff policy. We were abused. Getting to somewhere near a fair trade situation is desirable. I've spent a lot of time in Argentina, and I can't be more happy about their trajectory. But......There will be trouble ahead. That's almost a sure thing when you have decades of corruption and institutionalized cheating. Good luck to them.

I really don't know anyone I would judge as Maga, and that is the word I chose, purposefully. Your obsession is a gross distortion, and leads you to false conclusions about people you know nothing about. That is your issue, as well this apparent need to relay your travels. None of my business, but quite odd.

Nope. Wrong again, and the second sentence is pure idiocy. Anyway, nothing to admit. The claim is nonsense, and I have no need to transmit it, and my political views are not "non partisan." Can't stand the Dem party and never supported Trump. Don't care a bit about your view, and never have. Further, I really don't understand how someone of your age spends so much time caring about proving some false claim, but we all make choices about how to spend our time.

Ya it is.

First things first. I don't perform for you. You post absurd accusations in order to marginalize people who you don't agree with. That is stupid, dishonest, and cheapens your persona, but it's your choice. I am not going to respond to your request for me to address things I don't agree with or like about Trump, and there are plenty. I don't have the desire to spend time doing that. Didn't vote for the guy in any primary or general, and wouldn't. Regarding the folks who headed to Canada, I don't think negatively about those who avoided that draft, whether for medical or student deferments, getting married, becoming a father, conscientious objector or any other reason. That was a stupid war run by two idiots in DC that cost tens of thousands of lives, needlessly.

Not a Maga, and never have been, for the thousandth time. Kerry did it for personal, political reasons. John McCain was an Academy guy with a family history that included head of the Pacific Fleet. Despised as an officer, but respected as a POW. Not that that matters, but it is what it is. The point is that anybody who had no other motive avoided it, and it was easy.

John Kerry? Please. The guy who brought a video camera with him to record his "service" for political reasons. Absolute worst possible example.
