Banned from Hannity forums :)

I love the 24/7 PAID HACKS on that FORUM.

WEB FASCISM at it's FINEST!

Not wasting my time with those clowns... but next time Hannity is out in the winter months... don't forget to throw "YELLOW SNOWBALLS" at the NEOCON COWARD!

I had a feeling you'd get a chuckle out of that.

Nine Line Bind

It's an oil field term that has it's roots in sailing vessels.

It refers to the number of lines reeved through a block and tackle.

A drilling derrick can use up to 9 wire lines to reeve the "kelly block" or top drive motor. This supports the whole weight of the drill string.

Look for the big yellow block, and you can see the "nine lines".

As you can well imagine, to bind those 9 lines and jam that block puts you in a real predicament.

Hence: "Damn, I'm in a real nine line bind here".
