   I was born in, and grew up near Medford Oregon and I don’t get the joke.

   Paying extra for “no commercials” is almost pointless. Most of the programs (at least on hulu) originate from sources that won’t allow skipping commercials regardless. I have noticed now that FOX will not allow skipping commercials even when the programming comes from the local FOX affiliate broadcast station.

   Except 3/4 of the shows will still have inescapable ads due to the network policies.

   My question is how did Michaels hair grow so long in 3 or 4 months?

   This is not entirely correct. A 44 special averages 500 ft/lb of muzzle energy VS around 1700 ft/lb for the 5.56. As far as power, the 5.56 still has more energy at 300 yards than a 44 special at the muzzle. It is true that the 5.56 tumbles but this just increases the damage. The bullet was designed to tumble after impact because international law prohibits use of hollow point bullets for military use and the tumbling causes more internal damage. I regularly use a 55 gal steel oil drum as a target backstop and the exit holes at the back are a perfect silhouette of the bullet due to tumbling but they still punch through the steel and plow through around 6 feet of clay ground behind the barrel. There’s no way I would consider discharging one of these inside my house exactly because the bullet can penetrate multiple walls and still cause grave injury or death if it hits someone.

   My answer would be “Soon it will be in my stomach and not in the house”. Does she think she is going to get diabetes by proximity?

   Our government is a representative republic, not a democracy, so that we DO avoid mob rule. Democrats like to call it a democracy because it’s in their party name.

    No, the purpose of the airbag is to minimize the g force applied to the brain by slowing acceleration of the skull on impact. Same way airbags work on a car by preventing you from slamming violently into the windshield or door jamb.
