    Hernia surgery patch lawsuit

    Go to the hospital & request a copy of your medical records, there will be a special sheet/section pertaining to "implanted surgical devices" used during your surgery, that will state specifically if they used this type of mesh.

    Gun shows

    Best luck I've had at a gun show is getting 2 vendors willing to price match, usually good for a minimum of 10%. & as far as the difference between a 9mm & a 40, give me a goddamn break, you want a Hatcher rating over 50 in a defense handgun. Handgun Cartridge Type ...

    feeling guilty about my SUV

    Hmmm ER docs make ~$130-160K/year, I don't know one that drives anything that gets more than ~20mpg. What do the other docs you work with drive? What's your hurry? In a couple of years, you'll have the option to purchase a hybrid SUV, it's not cost effective to own & drive 2 cars (the...

    Fred Thompson to take step toward candidacy

    In my book, getting divorced in 85' and marrying a younger woman in 2002 hardly qualifies as dumping his first wife for an younger woman. The Democrats are going to screw around & tear each other to shreds because the fringe left of the Democrats can't understand the concept of compromise...

    Looking at a Glock 19 or Sig 226 as my first semiauto

    I'm not a fan of the 9mm as a CCW gun, IMHO, a .357 sig or larger is a much more effective weapon, and is the minimum you should carry. Another thing to consider is that some CCW permit holders look at exactly what the local police carry, guns & ammo & purchase the exact same weapon/ammo in...
