  1. The beauty of a wooden handle is you can buy or make a new handle if it breaks, not to mention less vibration on the hands and arms... I've got about ten axes all told, my favorite being a re-purposed Bucking billy double bit.... Oh and if your wanting to chop firewood its a maul you'll be lookin for... I've one or two of them as well....
  2. I only came across his work a month back, watching one of his vids a couple of weeks back for the first time it was like watching light pour through the darkness.. The mans a complete genius... I think I might of watched about twenty hrs of of his work over the last couple of weeks..... maybe more than that..
  3. A brief breakdown of PC culture.. half hr vid.. you'll get a flavour of the argument.. a more in-depth analysis can be got by watching the second vid..
  4. The real question is why we've fallen for it all.... anyone ever take the time to work out why we listened to them?.. what moral authority these hard left nazi's ever had?... We just listened and presumed their point to be true.... Oh by the way, they're not liberals, they really are hard left Nazi's..
  5. The add can only offend if you want to be offended..... I ain't offended because I know its an add for an hoodie.. Trouble is, you've bought the bullshit and have like a muppet taken the scumbags medicine... I really think you aught ask why its offensive.. look at it again for what it is. ask yourself why your innocent first impression has been corrupted into something sinister?... Because these PC scumbags want you to see it as such... who are they to tell you how you aught to feel?.. what you aught to see?.. they have corrupted your mind, only you hadn't a clue they did it.... now you know....
  6. Theres nothing wrong with the add if you see it for it is.. An add for a kids hoodie... The white self loathing Marxist left have told us its racist and we, without ever questioning their credentials have taken them at their word.. For this add to be racist it would presume that we are racist.. weres the fking evidence?..... theres is none.. The racists are the scumbags telling us we're all racists... whoever complained about that add wants hunting down for the dogs they most certainly are.. they want tar and feathering and beating down with heavy clubs... they are the real scumbags in this story..
  7. Well I'll be working on it and see what I can come up with... I might just of got ahead of myself, I'll have to think on it..
  8. Trumps been knocked about over the last year or so, nothing has kept him down... I doubt this will either.. one more day in the life of Trump.... give it a month and it'll be something else but Trump will still be there.. You can't knock a good man down..
  9. The Emperor God.. you go Trump..........
  10. Might not of put that as best I could.. I wasn't talking about an empty fought, but that a thought can come into your mind without a previous cause..
  11. I suppose what I am saying is thoughts can come into existence without an appeal to predeterminismn.. thus your following actions are not tied to what predetermined that thought... So free will of sorts..
  12. No, thoughts can have no cause.. thought can just be. no need for a cause... which is not to say that all thoughts come out of thin air, but that they can....
  13. Well I'll think on that in the next hr, I've just had a thought... if, I'm right.. then it answers another question thats been puzzling me for decades.. it proves the Universe had no cause... well hints at it at least!!!
  14. Oh, I believe it does.. if the universe came into existence without need of a cause then not everything needs to have a cause to produce an effect... The human mind might act in the same way, we imagine cause, but we can't know that.. Just as the universe has no cause, so to the thoughts we produce may as easily have no cause..
  15. Just skimmed over an article by Russle.. heres an interesting snippet that seems to align with what I've been puzzling over... more than likely why I mention the universe having a cause.. When a man does not himself know why he acted as he did, we may search his unconscious for a cause, but it never occurs to us that there may have been no cause.
  16. Not sure I'm getting what you're getting at.. I think I'm being bamboozled..LOL I'm about to find out what Bertrand Russel had to say on the subject. be back shortly
  17. Looks like I might of thrown a spanner in the works... Looks to me if you really want to use cause and effect you have to prove the universe came into existence because of a cause..
  18. but it begs the question, if the big bang had no cause, then not everything is the result of cause and effect...
  19. If free will is predicated on cause and effect..and if the beginning of the universe had no cause then how would that fit into the debate about free will?..
  20. Trumps that dumb he's a billionaire, then he was a laughing stock when he announced his run on the Presidency... what is he now?.. That's right, The President of the United State of America... and still a billionaire. I wish I was as dumb as the Trump..
  21. Thats a great motivational story BigJ.. I have lower back pain ever time I put too much pressure on my lower back during work.. Usually manifested itself if I did any lifting involving uneven lengths of wood.. say a long branch five ft out in front, two ft behind.. or bending down pulling up saplings, that one gets me every time... Used to send me round the bend for days afterwards.. But I think like you I have the measure of it now... I sit on the couch, place my legs under the table my PC sits on, my feet touching the underside of the table and do a sit up routine while sat on the couch.. only takes a minute and I've had wonderful results.. I think in your case as in mine its about trapped nerves, in your case the muscle has pulled the nerve back into position, in mine its realigning a trapped nerve due to bad posture.. I can't sit straight for more than a minute, I'm a sloucher..
  22. Not so fast Mr Eggsarascal.. I read an article on the subject a few years back.. define workload?.. its a subjective term, could mean anything.. extra work in the same timeframe=shifts....
  23. Eggsarascal Errr no I don't have a link, its something I came across some years back.. but I just did a google search and the number one reason police officers are going to leave the force is workload 73%.. I'd hazard a guess hiding in that stat is working shifts... its part of the work load is it not?.... so, point proven I do believe. Mull I only ever go on this forum, I've been kicked off the ones I used to frequent.. kicked off the same one three times over the years.. I learned my lesson though, I sometimes catch myself and delete the reply before I click post.. about half of my posts end in the bin.. Anyways Mull, wont be long before you have a few spring lambs to look after.. would you like me to send some lipstick for the mother?..
  24. They should axe the chief constables job or whichever dick it was who wants to get rid of the PCSO's.. My theory is the police force should be split into two halves.. shift working police and split days.. the number one reason police leave the service is shift work.. dumbbells can't figure it might be better to provide police officers with regular day work as an option..
  25. I like Katie myself, she says the things that need to be said by someone with a public profile.. MP's have a duty to keep a lid on explosive social issues.. there are things MP's and media types can't speak on or know better to speak on lest they make matters worse... ex, terrorist atrocities.. unless they have a workable solution to problems they tend to keep their council and instead attempt to deal with bringing communities together.. But people like Katie act as a jester, they poke fun at power and convention.. she can say what we all think without it leading to violence or social unrest... Its like taking the lid off a pressure cooker.. in that regard Katie has done damned more good than harm.. Then there's the fact that she's funny.. I particularly like her tear down of Peaches Geldoff.. silly little tart that she was... Oh she's also part of an online movement pushing back against the agenda of the PC Marxist movement infecting society... here have some fun with an antidote to PC marxismn...
