I new you were an old fart. I do have your D beat by a few grand so I can't say to much. Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

If you need help getting around for the weekend let me know. I'm sure we can work something out. Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

Glad to hear things went well. Now take care of yourself so we can see you soon. Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

Not initially. They have already asked if I am available to travel for later phases of the project. I'm thinking that Nov. - Feb. would be a good time to have to help with start up operations.

It is not a bad way to go. I am finishing a degree and am using both classroom and online classes. Many universities and colleges now offer online classes as well as complete on degree programs. Check out the institutions in your local area as well as the national ones. The institutions accredidation is the most important issue. I found it easier to do some courses online because of my schedule while others it was nice to have the classroom time. Formats do vary and my school actually had it's own chat forum so you do do private time with your instructor if you needed it to clarify issues that you may have been struggling with.

I'm sure this will get the thread going. I will be documenting the manufacturing processes of a company that is moving. Reviewing the ISO work instructions, routings, bills of material. Equipment and tooling identification and organization. Then helping to relocate the facility to Mexico. Right now it is a 6 month contract but may be extended.

I do not agree with the bill either, I wish personal accountibility meant more in this country. The reason for the bill essentially is to avoid the cost associated with the litigation. Though only a few suits have been filed thus far the cost has already reached millions of dollars to the industry. Tort reform is really the answer, then again burning all the ambulance chasing, money greedy, self centered lawyers at the stake may help also. Nothing personal against our lawyer friends here in the forum. Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

You would not believe how many jumps I have on one of them. Course it was that or a T-10, I went with the high performance. Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

Finally, I start a new contract position on Monday. Holy shit, I will actually being generating skydiving cash again.

Your going to site the Kerry website to define truth? Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

Personally I think the dirt being thrown around by the 527 groups about Bush are much worse. The Democrats are the ones who championed campaign reform are now the first to use whatever loophole is available to skirt the requirements. I see a big legal debate coming that will shadow many of the real issues that need to be debated. Many of these both the Rep. & Dems. are way off base on. But way, I'm just a sociopathic Libertarian.

I changed my answers three times...and every time I come up as Huggy Bear. What gives... Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

I don't do sound bite politics John. The issues about "American" jobs are much more complex than what most would like to believe. Many policies affecting us today started in the Clinton administration. I'm not bashing Clinton just pointing it out. Many democrats voted for the agreements that today they want to blame on Bush. I do not believe that this administration has been as strong on defending out position in the world as you might gather from my statements below. Lower wages are not the only issue, and all jobs do not leave the U.S. Take IL for example, and Rockford in particular. The current unemployment rate is 5.6%. The same as it was under Clinton when he pronounced theat we had the strongest economy ever. However here it is 11.2%, because we are a heavy manufacturing community. Many of the jobs here are not going out of the U.S. just to neighboring states where there is a more friendly business environment. Better tax incentives, less legal backing of unions that demand exorbident benefit and wage packages and are protected by the state from defending their position. Also from a macro position the overhead costs need to be examined. One of my beefs is the way that our country has to pay the largest portion of the funding to support the U.N. Since the government is not a producer of goods or services these funds come from tax dollars generated from individuals and companies. Many of the countries that "our" jobs are going to are now generating more GDP in their economies but have not seen a related increase in their obligation to the U.N. Therefore as a result our nations per capita (as an individual counry member) contribution increases as the others go down. There are many issues such as this that affect our overall cost structures. This is what plays into a corporations decision to move jobs. Most companies would really not prefer to build, move, train just to get back to a level of efficiency and quality that they have already attained. If people really want to stick their heads in the sand and believe that other countries having strong economies is not good for the U.S. that is their right. The thing to remember is that as their economies develop they need more goods also. They do not have the infrastructure to support that growth, we do, and that is where our growth comes from, what we export, and they will need it. I accept my current position as I chose to be a mamager in the industrial sector. I do not blame the government, nor the companies that released per se. My decision to be in the field that I am is as much a cause of my circumstances as anything. That is my personal responsibility perhaps I should be considering a different field of endeavour, but I like what I do when I am working.

So I left the PUB. My hip hurt from sitting to long. I walked by the fridge and noticed that I had a 6 of Killian's in there from before I went to the Doc's. Well I don't have it any more but I am having a problem fucosing...fuckcussing...looking at things. Any ideas...

Can we say springtime. Really, I hope she is ok and recovers quickly. Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

Yeah, I was missing channels today. I don't watch MTV to much, not my kind of stuff on it anymore. However I do like the Comedy Channel and the kids need thier Nick. When you breakdown the increase Viacom is really looking for something like a 40% increase in fees for thier product. Ten times the inflation rate or something like that. Of course each side makes the numbers like whatever they want them to. Viacom really is starting to lose money because many people are leaving the cable market to the satellite markey. They had a good lock on the cable people now they want it on the satellite folks.

Not when I am looking for work. And when I do I know exactly where it comes from. It is a just between friends thing from a little clone to a big bud.

OK, so I was driving behind a Brink's truck today he he goes over the railroad tracks... Rainbo TheSpeedTriple - Speed is everything "Blessed are those who can give without remembering, and take without forgetting."

Yeah, it's really cool the first couple of months
