  1. I see that the bulk of the funds are in 2010 and 2011, with the biggest chunk in 2010...probably before November Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  2. Figured against $787 billion Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  3. Here http://www.recovery.gov/?q=content/report-progress OK...looks more like 6% than 3% Under the impact heading...that's some funny shit. http://www.recovery.gov/?q=content/impact I don't doubt that the wheels of the bureaucracy spin slowly. Can you say Form 34620/58-24 in triplicate? I suspect a bit of both...but I'm jaded. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  4. I see the problem as the stimulus money hasn't yet been injected into the economy. Only something like 3% has actually been released. They're waiting for the mid-term elections. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  5. Everyone I know who has spent any time in the sport has had moments when they consider the risk v. the reward with more than just a casual glance. Probably several times. When the reward no longer outwieghs the risk it'll be over for you. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  6. Sounds like you're buying into the media hype. Tell me what's wrong with healthcare before I can tell you how to fix it. Sure 46 some odd million don't have it, but that's roughly 15% in this country. What percentage of those don't really give a damn whether they have it unless someone gives it to them Tell me what's wrong with education. Money won't solve the perceived problems. Only involved parents can. We already have too much of the former and not enough of the latter. The economy...please. The day I start believing my government can 'fix' the economy is the day I give up my personal responsibility. They've already shown their collective asses with TARP, the auto bailouts, and the stimulus package. Awhile back I made a conscious decision to stop listening to the media. I read the newspaper and draw my own conclusions. It's been refreshing to say the least. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  7. Packed a heavy cloud into an SST for awhile using a diaper. ALways thought the mess of lines in the bottom of the tray looked like a bad idea but I never had a mal. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  8. I like him...always have. As with any of the entertainers you have to put what they're saying in perspective. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  9. Although not illegal, immoral, or unethical, you have to check out Murtha's airport. http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=7415354 Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

  11. Yep. Akron U for a Mechanical Engineering Degree...we hope. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  12. High School last night...with honors. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  13. FLK syndrom (Funny Lookin' Kid) Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  14. F1 and IndyCar lost me a few years back. F1 races haven't been competitive in a while. Seems like one driver leaves the rest behind and you end up watching a race where, unless the driver in the lead f**ks up bad it would be difficult for him not to win. When CART split many of the big name drivers were lost in the rubble. Indy used to be a big deal..it was THE race. Now, not so much. They've both suffered under the weight of NASCAR and it's brilliant marketing plan. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  15. Let us know how that works out for ya Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  16. Psst...we're not allowed to say anything negative yet. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  17. Robert Manzo, executive director of Capstone Advisory Group and a Chrysler consultant, testified at a May 4 hearing in bankruptcy court that the task force "believed that it was not feasible to not spend anything on marketing and advertising for fear of eroding the image of the brand." Huh? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  18. Hmmm...could be meat...could be cake. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  19. Funny stuff from John Stewart on GM and Chrysler http://www.thedailyshow.com/video/index.jhtml?videoId=226583&title=clusterf#@k-to-the-poor-house Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  20. I think its called making a .....(ulp!) profit! Shame on them! Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  21. "This is very interesting," Buffett told the crowd of about 500. "We gave half the tickets to Parrothead clubs and half the tickets to Dolfans, and you can't tell the difference." http://www.fanhouse.com/news/nfl/buffett-rocks-dolphins-landshark-stadium/472483 Please don't dent the planet.

  22. My SO had a salpingo-oophorectomy in April. Would that be a defensible motive for murder? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  23. My fear is neither racist or irrational. I fear socialism. Barry & Co. are taking us in that direction...and quickly. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
  24. No money hasn't stopped Barry, Harry & Nancy so far. Why will this be different? Just pull out Uncle Sam's credit card and let's get going. The banks and auto companies are at risk of collapse, and taking the rest of the economy with them. It's also bipartisan - following the steps of the GOP leadership last fall. Our health care system, otoh, is a slowly burning bomb, like Social Security. There is not the same pressing need to do something when for most people (and nearly all voters) it is working reasonably well. So, no, it's not at all the same and there is no blank check to do something about it. If you prefer to scream about the black boogieman in the White House, feel free, but political reality is greatly different. Valid points to be sure, but there is also a window of opportunity here that may never happen again and I think Barry & Co. will use that opportunity to cram as many socialist programs through while they can.
