    Not a candidate for GP due to the celebrity status, he would last a week on the range with other lifers as they’d be competing to kill him. Gets rid of him, and they get hero status. Plus it will add something to do for awhile to break the monotonous boredom inmates live day to day.

    He’s already classed, they won’t demote his housing level. Someone can still get to him in PC but it would difficult.

    Instead of Postal, this guy went Parcel..


    [​IMG]




    A United Parcel Service driver was busted this week in connection to a shooting on an Oregon highway — and is suspected in a string of six other freeway shootings dating back to May, according to authorities

    Kenneth Ayers, 49, was arrested Thursday, a day after a woman was shot on Interstate 5 in Jackson County, according to NBC News affiliate KOBI.

    Police said they tracked Ayers’ UPS tractor-trailer some 60 miles from the shooting, and seized “a firearm consistent with the type used” in the shooting.

    The unidentified woman was rushed to hospital,

    treated and released, and there were no injuries in the other shootings, the outlet reported.

    No motive has been confirmed, police said. It was unclear if Ayers hired an attorney.

    “We are appalled to hear about these allegations and are fully cooperating with the responding authorities,” a spokesman for UPS said in a statement. “Firearms are prohibited at UPS facilities and in our vehicles, and we are extremely concerned for the other motorists and individuals affected.”

    Hope that was his own boat, and it was sufficiently wrecked, hull & motor//prop so he can't go boating ever again. Glad no bystander was hurt or killed.

    Current draw is said to be 90 amps! A lot of that must be turned into heat.

    While on the topic of boats... Here's an expensive life lesson...

    Guy's boat was boat stolen and stripped. No insurance.

    90 amps - holy shit! A lot of older house only have 100 amps total for everything. That would take some big damn power cable too. What is it used for?

    90A at 12VDC -- basically 1080 watts, so at 120V it's be 9A
