    Okay, so while I was at work yesterday, this chopper was circling my property and flying extremely low, also at times hovering and my wife was looking right at the pilot, could see right into the cockpit. Freaked my family out entirely. Anybody got any guesses what this could have been?

    Communists/socialists have always been spoiled children.

    Found this on Wikipedia, a letter from Marx’s father in 1837 lamenting his son’s poor decision making, lack of get up and go, and extravagant lifestyle. The father of communism liked spending somebody else’s money on excess. Go figure. “Alas, your conduct has consisted merely in disorder...
