Maybe drivers think doctors are infallible, but DOT knows better. Not allowing a second opinion would be legally indefensible.

I agree with LOS: driving too fast for the conditions - it seemed pretty clear in the vid I posted, people were just zooming into the wrecks. People seem to believe that when cars can go from 0-60 in mere seconds,with antilock brakes, stabilizer technology, & all wheel drive, what's to worry...

I think a perfect way to spend a cold day is making a pot of chili - but I don't have a tv, lol. ;)

I wouldn't assume it has any relation to the carrier's safety rating, [but you could check, just to be sure], it is most likely a general policy, applied to all. Insurance requires things simply to cover their ***[ets] in case of a major claim.

I'd agree with "most politicians", but not all There are a few, [Elizabeth Warren, whatshisname from Vermont, lol] who appear to wish to represent the interests of the citizens, even when it puts them on some corporate hit lists [I mean *hit lists, not death warrants]. The rest are beholden to...

It's illegal to cover both ears, and bluetooth headsets only cover one. When listening to audiobooks through earbuds, I can hear just fine with only one in.

Words are inadequate, but that's all I've got. I'm very sorry for your tremendous loss.

Pilgrim: if Palin wanted to devote more time to her family, and not expose them to the merciless glare of the media, she wouldn't have accepted McCain's offer to run for VP. Her resignation as Governor was after that campaign ended, but her deliberate efforts to remain in the "news" did not. By...

Watch this incredible Youtube video of massive car pile-up | Fox17 Saw this earlier, just freaking amazing.

When there's controversy, disagreements, different opinions - it's interesting. Interesting is what keeps a web site like this alive and thriving. The "small talk" and chatter and banter pretty much interests only those directly participating, while the disagreements are good reading even to...

People do need to comply for their own safety - if they don't, they can be handled pretty roughly, or Maced, or Tasered, to effect compliance. But they shouldn't be shot as a first response, as the kid in Cleveland was. Or when they are too far away [and without a weapon] to be a credible...

Every state except Alaska & Hawaii [why won't they build a bridge?!], and only one province: Ontario. The next one should ask: which are your favorites?

So the kid is standing on the dog because he "respects and trusts" it? Got it. And I'll remember it, next time I get the chance to stand on you, lol. :p Seriously: it's not about whether it's ok with the dog, it's about what we teach our kids is ok - and I taught mine that party hats & goofy...

What ^he^ said. As for the "If you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan", that turned out to be wrong, but was it a deliberate lie? Of course you think so, but I disagree. I think it was Obama's intent, but it was the insurance companies actual decision, and he should...

Happy birthday, Cyn! I hope that you got to "taste the stars", just like the original Dom Perignon, when he first created champagne. :)

What I said was "if it becomes unsecured while open" - a rollup door would come down, possibly while someone was underneath. I don't know how often that actually happens, but I know if it happened even once, some companies would immediately create a policy to prevent it happening again...

Our country can afford to throw money away on anything that the Defense Dept wants, [or the representatives whose districts benefit], but there's not enough money for maintaining the roads, or a whole laundry list of priorities that get [literally] shortchanged - that's just nuts.

You know what the dog thinks, huh? I think that the dog knows where his place in the family/pack is: on the bottom of the totem pole. Maybe he doesn't mind being stepped on, really, but I don't believe that's the point - the point is a parent's responsibility to teach their offspring to...

If we can't venture an opinion on the photo without referring to the mother, that's because the mother is well known [publicity ***** in the interest of keeping those public speaking fees in the lucrative territory, in lieu of actual work, but I digress] and she posted the photo with her own...
