Yep!! :-)) Bolassss might want a ride too, but you are much cuter - we can always put him in the trailer I should know by the end of this month. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

it can be more than a factor - it can be the over-riding factor if that racism is applied at various times in a lifetime - like a dollar that's accumulatively taxed down to a few cents (meanwhile the untaxed white dollar appreciates in value) There are black dollars and white dollars? Damn. All I have are green ones. If one truly wanta to end racism they have to end all racism. No more quotas, special race based groups, etc. (Imagine the uproar if there was a Congressional White Caucus or NAAWP.) It's a 2 way street but as long as there is preferrantial treatment for any race, there will always be resentment for it by the others.

Why ask the race questions then? I do have large issue with trying to racially balance voting districts be redrawing the lines. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

He did, but because of issues with my pharmacy I wasnt able to get it until late last night, and I had already taken an Ambien when my folks brought it home (Im not about to mix Ambien with Dilaudid)... For the most part I am feeling fine right now so I dont have any reason to take the hard stuff. And since I am allergic to most of the hard stuff, I couldnt just take something my parents have in the medicine cabinet Dilaudid? Damn. Just take over the counter stuff and save that for a party...

You wear the belt around your waist. In event of a water landing, you take the belt off and hook it to your rig so it floats and you swim. I guess if you had two, you could hook it to your main if you had a mal and had to chop it. I'd be interested to see if anybody would have the presence of mind to pop the co2 cartridge before cutting away the main. Bolas probably would, he has enough experience with chopping his main. And Bolas, of course you can stay in my dad's condo...he is going to rent it out as an investment property. Soooooo, how much are ya willing to pay?? He wouldn't charge friends of the family...

This is a socioeconomic issue, not a racial one. Why exclude the poor people of all the other races? Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

So the Bilderberg Group is like a drug dealer and the Western Nations are like users, addicts, or junkies. They want us to keep using them and running up more debt but just because it's there doesn't mean we have to. Also depserate junkies have been known to kill dealers just to get that one last fix. Sounds like both sides need to take their head out of their ass.

I really thought Greenspan was smarter than that. He didn't factor in basic human greed? Then again, companies used to be more loyal to their employees so vice versa. CEO's generally have contracts as their employment can be very short term. Companies are much larger and making more money. What is considered middle class has also changed drastically as well. (at least 2 cars, much larger house, etc.) Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

good point - clearly a flat tax in 2007 would have been a very progressive tax that would still have everyone contributing proportionately to what they earned, but still having all citizens paying for those roads, schools and protection Yep, great idea, taxing someone who is already below the poverty line. I can see why the right likes that idea. How do you propose they contribute so they don't just use their voting power to vote for more gov't programs they get the benefit of, but don't have to pay for? It wouldn't be $1000's per person, probably would max out way less than $500. It's not so much the contribution level that's important as much as them feeling they have a stake in this.

What I am getting from all this is while mutts are generally heartier and healthier than most bred dogs, a reputable top class breeder takes the necessary precautions to ensure its dogs are just as healthy. Seems like both rescue orgainazations and the reputable breeders are in it for the wellfare of the animal, not the $$$.

Federal income tax is NOT the entire tax burden of anyone. True. We get taxed when we make it, taxed if we invested it, taxed when we spend it, and taxed just for owning certain items that we spent it on. This is why a flat tax on income for general services with federal sales taxes on specific services is the answer. FAA/ATC? Sales tax on flights, GA, etc. You don't fly, you don't pay. Military? Income tax. etc. etc. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

Lately we have not agreed on much, but this is one area where I think you will find we do have some common ground with each other. Not so much on the salary front (the salaries of bankers does not bother me as much as it bothers you), but in how the global banking community created this recession to further their agenda. Honestly I can't see it happening, but getting away from the Federal Reserve (Bank of Canada, Bank of England, etc, etc, etc) is the only way the common people on the street will ever see the light of day. How much of the tax revenues governments collect goes towards serving the debt to these global private bankers? It's mind boggling how society allowed such a thing to happen ... When it comes to the global bankers, there is little difference if a Democrat or a Republican is in power. Little difference if a Conservative or a Liberal is in power. We are all being setup as the banker's slaves. Not really that mind boggling. The international monetary system is so complex most just don't understand it or how it works. They probably don't care either. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

It's not about the money, it's about the pet's chance of survival and ability to still lead a happy normal life afterward. When I had a dog I told myself when she can no longer do those things that make her tail wag so hard you think it'll fall off, it might be time to say goodbye. Congrats and hope you have many wonderful years together.

Yep. Always best to cut off contact when you rip that bandaid off. Its so much harder to deal with when youre trying to pretend everything is hunky dory now that youre just friends. Dont bullshit yourself. +1 Sometimes a civil breakup can be worse as you're more tempted to contact each other.

Those sites need to add in those fees to the fare prices so one can do a true compare. I've noticed airlines seem to have stop charging for non alcoholic drinks as everyone just bought them before they came on the plane. With the added fees for luggage and now even carryon, it may be cheaper soon to just ship your luggage. Spirit was the first to charge for checked bags. I hope them charging for carry on doesn't spread as well. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

As long as there are people are willing to accept minimum wage, companies will pay them that. Basic economics of supply and demand apply here as well.

Well done america, what a great role model you are...

You can take any isolated incident and use it to one's viewpoints advantage. It's not until you look at the big picture that one can see the true positive or negative impact. Do you not agree the Iraqi people as a whole are much better off now than they were 10 years ago? normaly I'm a polite person: But could you possibly get your head out of your ass and start thinking for yourself rather than repeating your countrys propaganda???? Was/are there civilian casualties and large ammounts of damage in Iraq? Yes. But they have a more stable non maniacal government and are getting assistance/aid rebuilding infrastructure. Regardless of how one feels about the legitimacy of the initial invasion, these two things were accomplished: * We gave/are giving a country back to its people. * Other countries/terrorists have taken note of our show of power. -
