  1. I don't get this "re-oiling" that some people talk about. If you season a pan properly, you don't need to smear more oil on it unless you foolishly attack it with a brillo pad.

     

    I have . . . um. . . about 10 cast iron cooking pots, pans and griddles (five sillets, chicken fryer, dutch oven, two corn bread pans, two griddles). Get them well seasoned, nice and black and you don't have to fuss with them again.

  2. Aye, there's the rub. The parents get to be free to "chose" to slaughter their unborn child. Not exactly someone who should be an advocate for the child.

     

    That's like a lawyer getting up in court and saying, "I'm here to defend my client but I don't like him so sentence him to death so I can get on with my life."

     

     

  3. It's all spin. "I'm not supporting abortion, I'm for having more choices!" If ya ain't fer it, yer agi'n it. "Pro choice" means that you're in favor of allowing women to slaughter unborn children. Pretty simply idea but you and your ilk are pretty good at distorting the truth.

     

    The truth needs no authority, lies have to hide behind pretty words and "authority."

     

    BTW, "translation" from what language? Is "pro-choice" German or French or Swahili?

  4. "Because embryos and fetuses are not human beings .....but I think you knew that."

     

    So they aren't human until they pop out? That's the viewpoint of the baby killers.

     

    Stop hiding behind euphemisms. Call it what it is! It isn't "choice" it slaughtering children for the sake of convenience.

  5. "1st ASM does advancement records and keeps me informed of the boy's advancement status."

     

    That looks like a committee job to me.

     

    "2nd ASM does fundraising functions such as popcorn person, etc. Finds other funraising opportunities for the boys should they request that information or will research ideas the boys may be interested in should they ask."

     

    Fundraising is a committee job, not ASM.

     

    " Provides and explains any educational resources and makes it available to the boys. Keeps current MB counselor listings and orders materials so when the boys ask it's available."

     

    Sounds like more committee work to me.

     

    "4th ASM assists outings by lining up transportation and does the permits and other adult expected aspects of outings."

     

    Yet, another committee task.

     

    Maybe if your ASMs did their jobs as ASM instead of usurping committee functions, you might find something for a JASM to do.

     

    What is the function of an ASM? To assist the SM in his job. What's an SM's primary function? To teach leadership. Sounds like a JASM could do that.

     

    At the risk of sounding like BeeDubya, it's all in the book.

     

  6. For his Eagle project, one of our scouts collected flags for retirement. He figured that he'd get 20 or 30 but wound up with hundreds. The ceremony started out very solemn, with each and every flag given individual honors. After about four hours of flag burning, around 10 PM, they started doing a few at a time. I don't remember the number but if they did too many, the fire was in danger of smothering. Around midnight, the whole event was shut down, the fire burned out and the remaining flags were saved for a another day.

  7. "Pro-choice is not necessarily pro-abortion."

     

    Liberal dancing around the issue. If you are "pro-choice" you are in favor of women being allowed to slaughter their unborn children for the sake of convenience. They made their choice when they dropped their drawers.

     

    If we're allowed to slaughter unborn children, why not new-borns? Heck, why not your 12 year old because you want to on vacation without him?

  8. When I first heard about the "flags flown over the Capitol" I thought that they were the BIG FLAG, at most 366 of them a year so you were getting something special. Then I learned about the "up", "down", "up" "down" routine. On top of that they aren't even proper American flags, their ascpect ration, like most "American flags", is wrong.

  9. Simple answer, nope.

     

    Now a question, why are you trying to find ways to shortcut the requirements? Why not say, "Hey! We have a chance to go see some Boy Scouts in action!"?(This message has been edited by Gold Winger)

  10. Story from Reader's Digest Humour in Uniform. Before the US entered the war a young fellow headed to Canada to get into the war. He joined a highland regiment and, after training, come home on leave, resplendent in kilt, knee socks, and Glengarry. He was sprawled in a chair, talking to his family and friends who had come to visit. His mother came into the room and exclaimed, "Son, if you're going to be a soldier, you're going to have to learn to sit like a lady!"

     

    As I typed this story, I was struck by the irony that in the 1930s young American men headed to Canada so they could get into a war and 30 years later, young American men headed to Canada to escape a war.

     

    In parting, I'd like to say that if we expect our daughter's to wear underwear under their skirts, we should expect no less from Scotsmen.
