Michael Caine is a great actor, the caliber of Gene Hackman but that doesn't put him in a position of power, in my opinion anyway.

I'm so confused. What was LJ saying, and does he look like Michael Caine? Is Michael Caine in charge of something? Why does the sound come out of my computer tower and not the speakers that are hooked up? How much wood could a woodchuck chuck?

Probably because the speakers are actually plugged into the microphone jack, not the speaker jack. Unless the speakers normally play sound, in which case something's just jacked up.

Well, I found the right hole. The sound is garbled so I think I have funky speakers, but the sound isn't coming from the tower anymore.

Thanks Clodfobble! :

I'm dumb!!

May it be that he reflects some of the fears of the common man?

I need to go out and stock up on guns and ammo...only because a lot of conservatives are stocking up on them and I don't trust those fuckers with guns anymore.

It might be that there's a rumor going around that Acorn is giving out free guns. There wasn't, but all I need is an account on Conservapedia to get things started.

If guns are the solution, then the logical extension is that all individuals in high crime areas should be armed. Of course, this would involve a lot of minority gun owners.

Maybe the NAACP and the NRA can start a program to legally arm as many people in Camden as possible.

If most law abiding citizens owned one crime would drop. It did in Florida.
