There are a lot of people out there who think that burning the flag is protected by the first amendment, and there are other that think it is not. The answer lies in what type of flag it is.

If the flag was bought by the person who is burning it, then they have full freedom to burn it if they want to, but if I buy a flag and someone burns it, then they do not have ANY freedom to take my property and destroy it.

With that being said, there will be many that will rejoice

I am a big fan of biscuits and gravy, but when you have Celiac disease those things got put on the back burner as I could not have them. There are biscuit recipes and box kits at the stores for biscuits, but nothing like the real good flaky, buttery biscuits that you would expect to have and not the hard rock things that most of the Gluten Free world has. I had found a recipe online for some biscuits, to which I modified the recipe some and then turned it into a casserole that is just ready to go. You can make the biscuits separate and the gravy separate and just do a traditional biscuits and gravy meal. Rather than doing 15 shots of the prep, and then have one tiny paragraph for the real stuff that everyone wants to see (the recipe) I am just goingto cut to the chase here. You will need a Gluten Free all purpose flour mix (about 2 cups, but for mine I made a large batch as I baked it into a large casserole container). The flour that I wound up using was Aldi's gluten free flour blend, but you can use what ever you want to use. My recipe is the large batch, but you can cut it in half if you are just baking this into a 9x13 pan . Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease the bottom of your 9x13 pan

• 4 cups of gluten free flour, (I also have a recipe here for gluten free flour)
• 2 teaspoons of xantham gum (look on the ingredients for your AP flour to see if the xantham gum is included in it or not. If it is, then do not use extra, if there is no xantham gum in your GF flour mix, then add the 2 teaspoons)
• 1 cup of nonfat dry milk
• 4 Tablespoons of baking powder
• 1 teaspoon of baking soda
• 1 teaspoon of salt.
• 1 - 2 lbs of pork sausage
• 4 cups of milk (can use more if you want)
• 3/4 to 1 cup of gluten free corn starch
• 2 sticks of butter
• 1.5 - 1 3/4 cups of buttermilk
• black pepper to taste

• Pre heat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Add all of these ingredients into a food processor(I use a Ninja blender) and blend it into a fine powder.
• Add into the blender 2 sticks (16 Tablespoons) of butter and blend it until the butter is cut well into the flour mixture
• Once the butter is cut into the flour mixture, add the flour mixture into a large mixing bowl and add in 1.5 to 1 3/4 cups of buttermilk. Lightly fold the buttermilk into the flour mixture until it is all mixed. If you need to add a bit more buttermilk, go ahead and do so, just do not over-work the dough.
• Lay out a few sheets of either wax paper or parchment paper on a level surface and dump the dough onto it. Flatten the dough out into about 3/4 to an inch thick. If you have a bicuit cutter, cut out the biscuits to the size you want, or you can use a cup as long as you butter the cup every couple of biscuits you make.
• Add the biscuits to the bottom of the 9x13 pan , if they all wind up touching it is fine.
• Brown the sausage, and make sure to NOT drain the grease. Once the sausage is browned, add the corn starch into the pan and stir, making sure to not burn the corn starch. Add in the milk, lower the heat a bit (between medium and high) and stir the milk about every minute or so until it thickens up
• While the gravy is cooking, you can add the biscuits into the oven for about 6 or 8 minutes to get them cooking a bit. If you dont want to, it will still turn out fine but the biscuits will be a bit doughy like dumplings.
• Once the gravy is thickened to where you want it to be at, and it has the right amount of pepper and or salt to it, pour the gray on top of the biscuits in the casserole dish and cook in the oven for about 30 - 40 minutes. You will want to cover the dish with tinfoil first, or else the gravy will develop a thick skin to it.

Once done, spoon up and serve!

If you want to make the biscuits only, just arrange them onto a sheet pan and bake in the oven for about 20 - 25 minutes. Take one biscuit out and make sure that the center is fully cooked.

It had been a while since I took this gun apart, so I was a bit rusty in this video.

Watch out for the pin as I lost mine when taking it apart one time, and there is a stopper on the end of the spring that shot off one time when I cleaned it.

The Hi-Points are one of the more difficult hand guns that I have taken apart mainly due to the pin that is easily lost and the spring that will shoot off into the sunset on you, not to mention the pin that you have to take out, where other guns may have a lever that swings up.

I have heard that their customer service is great about sending you free replacement pins, but I have yet to contact them. That may be an update later on.

As far as accuracy for the Hi-Points. They are accurate and so far every single time I have pulled the trigger they went bang and I am able to accurately hit the target every time.

Here is a very easy way to shred chicken. This method works great if you first cook the meat in the crockpot first as it makes shredding in general easier. https://youtu.be/Bs99ZsUS8es

There are a few constitutional amendments that should be repealed because they are bad and they take away the original intent of the constitution. The 17th amendment is one that should be repealed. The 17th amendment states that you can vote for the senators in your state. Prior to that you only voted for the House members, and the state Legislators appointed the Senators. That was a natural check and balance for term limits. The senators were supposed to represent the states and the will of the states an the House of representatives was supposed to represent the people and the will of the people. If the senators were not doing their job, the legislators could recall them and appoint new ones. The people were never supposed to directly appoint the senators.

The other one that should be repealed is the 16th amendment, this is the one that made the lovely income tax. Prior to the 16th amendment the states paid "taxes" if you will to the federal government based upon the census, the more people they more they paid and this is how the federal government operated. The people were never intended to pay for the federal government twice or even more than they currently do.

The 12th amendment is an amendment that exists, but is never followed and should be. Look that one up. According to that amendment the President is never supposed to pick their running mate. The vice president is supposed to be voted upon just like the president is, but this was no longer followed due to FDR.

I have a friend who asked me how it would be possible to have an application that they use accessible to their other computer inside of their house. The application that they need is in their shop, but they want to be able to do some of the grunt work inside of their house, which is understandable.

My suggestions were: 1. Buy a new computer or find a computer that you really do not use or even a used one on craigslist. Install the application that you need on that computer, and then install some free remote control applications (you can use Windows RDP if the host computer is running a professional version of Windows 7) and have this computer running all the time. You can then remote into this computer and do your work.

2. Install a VMWare on any of your computers and have it always running, and configure the VMWare to have a bridged connection so it is accessible to your network. Install Windows and your application on this VMWare instance and then you can RDP into this Widnows instance and use your application.

3. Install your application on a laptop and take it with you.

I am sure that there are a few other options, but these were the one that readily came off my head.
