    The general decline in standards today

    Or how about NO VICTIM: NO CRIME? The legal concept that without a clear and direct victim, there is no prosecutable offense.

    OK, enough with the drugs. There are plenty more vices to discuss. How about prostitution? It's never made sense to me that a woman can give it away all she wants, but the moment she charges for it, she's a criminal.

    What's for Dinner?

    It's a luau at Crunk Manor tonight. On the menu: Kalua Pig. It's been slow roasting in the crock pot for the past 12 hours. Served up with rice and Hawaiian sweet rolls.

    Lizzie, I would maintain that is a people problem, not a drug problem. Outlaw all non-pharmaceutical drugs and alcohol, and some people are still gonna find, use and abuse them.

    That's what happens when you bring any commercial aspect into it. Beyond a limit on how much you could possess at any one time, there'd be no regulation required of home-growers. You just couldn't sell it or profit from it in any way. No different from homemade beer or wine, and the...

    I like the way people try to lump the idea of legalizing a small amount of home-grown marijuana for personal use in with the problem of hardcore drug trafficking and the criminal culture that surrounds it. That's like comparing a guy brewing up a few gallons of beer in his basement to Al...

    People, people, people. I guess I'm gonna have to step back in here and fix this once and for all: Forget the medical research and taxation part for now. Simply allow people to grow and possess a reasonable amount for their own personal use if they so choose, whatever reason that might be...

    How to Know if You're in The Right Bar

    If there is pre-programmed electronic disco emanating from a DJ booth and a lot of very tall girls who look a little too much like men, you are either in the wrong bar, or the right one, depending on what you're looking for.

    What's for Dinner?

    Here in the deep South we have a summer sandwich tradition called the Tomato Sandwich (also known as a mater sammich). It's as simple as it sounds: two slices of bread, a thick slice of tomato, mayo, salt & pepper to taste. Dress it up beyond that, and it's no longer a tomato sandwich.

    What to wear - advise please.

    I'm with you 100% on this HudsonHawk. I hate dining out in a fine restaurant and having to look at people at the tables around be in t-shirts, shorts and flip-flops. I really miss the "jacket and tie required" places I went to with my parents when I was a kid. Even back then I felt like we...

    Don't know about other states, but here in Alabama they are issued by your county sheriff, and fees can differ from county to county. However they are valid state-wide and in any other state that is part of the Reciprocal CCP program.

    Classic train movies

    The Criterion release of Night Train To Munich is a wonderfully restored/remastered print. My wife and I are thinking about taking Amtrak to NYC later this year. If we do it will be my first train trip since taking a train ride as a child with my Grandfather, a career locomotive engineer...

    One of my recent crock-pot meals . . . homemade Brunswick Stew.

    What's for Dinner?

    Sometimes you just can't beat a hot dog. Actually in this case a Maxwell Street-style Polish Sausage. LUNCH.

    Impressive work, Michaelshane. I need to take a trip out west soon to paint some of this kind of scenery for myself.

    Show us your photography

    Here are a couple more of mine that I've heavily filtered with Topaz Adjust (Thanks to Quigley Brown for turning me onto it)

    I've posted some of my tattoo work here in the past, but never my watercolors. Here's a few I've done over the years.

    The death of independent cinema - a local perspective

    I think today's digital technology is the great equalizer for independent filmmakers, because you no longer need a Hollywood budget to produce good looking films. But I'm not sure of the impact digital projection will have on independent cinema, positive or negative. Just don't know enough...

    Enter the issue of States rights. Constitutionally, the Federal Law has no jurisdiction unless the product is being exported outside the state. This has become a BIG issue due to the recent push for federal gun control legislation. Many states, including my own, have passed resolutions...

    Exactly, Lizzie. But it's that very idea, the concept of basic human rights, that sets us apart from the rest of the animal kingdom. Without it we revert to the law of the jungle.
