Reply to Chip gets 8 years in Current Events JoeUser Forums

I've spent a quarter of my life working directly with child molesters and evry other shade of pervert and violent criminal. Granted, I've thought a million times how these people should be publicly crucified, BUT , to met out your own punishment is to be like them on their level. Chip Federick was a civilian corrections officer. He knew better. Now he's one of them and Ms. England can be one to.

Reply to Snake in my yard!!!! Snake in my yard!!!! in Pets & Nature JoeUser Forums

I remember late one night laying in the floor in my underwear in front of my TV watching Goldfinger (imagine the sight...ha!) when out of the corner of my eye I saw a 3 foot long snake coiled on top of my VCR on the TV!!! Talk about your blood running cold!!! Luckily, my front door was right by the TV so I opened it and quickly grabbed the snake near it's tail and flung it out! SHIT! Didn't know I could move that fast...
