Thanks. The Mrs is already getting funky though. There's been 4 cops shot in the area lately' date=' and she's worried about my new position at the school.[/quote']

Four in the area? What's going on? Frankly I can see why she's worried. Not to concern you, but that's just weird. It's not that bad normally, is it?

Jeb Bush will be President of Australia? :confused:

 

:D

My one political post for the week (not that I'm counting) and you had to make light of it. And yes who becomes President has an direct impact on Aus politics with the countrie so closely allied and such.

Two up north, in Galt, I believe. An AWOL soldier didn't want to get taken into custody. Two in Tulare, pulled over two brothers and got hit with a shotgun at point blank.

Yes, I can. I make apothecary jars (herbs, oils, stones inside to magically give something oomph), oils, medicine bags, and plaques (both painted and tiled to draw a particular energy into the home)...

damn. I already repped you. sounds neat. Years ago I was going to make a knife with a "stick tang" (slender piece of metal projecting down through the handle) that instead of leather rings would use wafers cut from rowan, ash and ALder (?memory slipping) I was told it would have to be "ritually harvested" to have any positive effects, and decided that would be going too far for my own beliefs.

 

IMO

I can accept that things have power and still be a Christian. Partaking in rituals... not so sure.

How are their conditions? I hope they lived. :(

 

AWOL soldier shot cop? I foresee leavenworth at the very least. I'd have to look up UCMJ, is that a capital offense?

The cops in Tulare lived, but are crippled to the point of retirement. I don't recall if the ones in Galt were seriously injured, but the AWOL soldier was shot and killed on site. No trial for him.
