The issue as far as I see it is we have become a nation where half the population are scared of guns because all they know is that they kill people. How does one change that?

Here’s where I’m tiptoeing a bit, in terms of PF stuff. But: BOTH sides have gotten so damn shrill and eyes-bugging-out that it’s almost unheard of for people on both sides of the issue to say, “OK, I don’t agree with [fill in blank], but I can see why you think it’s valid and important.”

And that has happened in damn near every part of American life now, from 2A and abortion and capital punishment and vaccinations to college football overtime rules and cookie-dough-vs-toffee-caramel ice cream. Until we get to a place where we can learn to understand (not automatically agree with, but understand) different points of view, nothing will change.

As some of you know I moved here from the frozen tundra north of the wall years ago.....

So I ask, why do folks selling a car in TN say "AC is cold, heat is hot"

Naturally the AC makes sense since its a system that is either expensive or a bitch to repair, but I've never had heat blow cold even at -5.

I'll hang up and listen.

Edit: assuming it's blowing, which would be implied by the "Cold AC"

If the heater core goes bad, it'll just blow cool air

Gonna quote you over here for something "Random."

Ashley Furniture has me miffed. The store is there near the Lowe's on the other side of the road (in JC), as you know.

EVERY Zac's commercial is now advertising Ashley Furniture on local TV here.

So I wonder what kind of deal they have worked out. ????

The Zacs is what five miles/ten minutes?? from the Ashley Furniture store.

a whole lot of independent furniture stores sell Ashley. There’s a really big furniture place in Galax that makes their own furniture AND still sells Ashley and other brands. Vette probably knows how all that works.

But JC is big enough to have multiple furniture stores. I know Furniture Row in Gray sells Ashley too. A quick search says Grand doesn’t
