HAPPY FELIX DAY I'm hopin ghtat top of the ninth secure with a huge lead Ichiro walks from the dugout to the mound and finishes the game off with 9 K's!

Happy Felix Day!

You guys crack me up. The fact is Debois saw unions as racist and oppressive during the beginning of the union label movement. The fact that he latter became a commie doesn’t change this one iota. So remember the label's origin next time you go looking for it. J_B Are you suggesting that I am a racist. I am like Dirty Harry I hate everyone equally.

By the way here is a photo of a labor leader who actually lived and organized under a regime of lead by socialists/commies dedicated to the working class.

Detail elude you prole. What Peter wrote: Note that the union label movement started in the ~ 1880's. Now Debois wrote and said in 1930: link In the final line of my quote above I point out that unions have gone from being against African Americans and US Chinese to now being against Chinese workers in China. (See bold) As I wrote above, somethings never change. Somebody gets screwed. Racism is often close to the surface.

Actually prole, the only thing I might be wrong about is that the union label movement was started against African-Americans. While its outright racist origin is certain it may have been first used primarily against other ethnic groups. Booker T. Washington & DuBois werre both anti uinion because of union discrimnation towards African-Americans.

prole wrote: The entire look for the union label movement started as a way for people to encourage consumers to avoid products derived from the labor of African-Americans. African-Americans were excluded from unions and when they could find equivalent work were happy to perform at a lower wage. As a result they were taking business away from unions. The business of unions when they actually do create higher wage is to screw somebody else. Screw the black guy across town. Screw the Chinese immigrants. Srew the poor guy in China trying to get ahead. Some things never change. So while Boeing machinists got good pay and that pay helped develop the area - everyone in the area benefited when all was said and done. The parties getting screwed were not in our picture. Now we can no longer screw the little guy across the ocean or across the country. If the union does not respond in such away as to keep jobs we all suffer. For example my house price has dropped. My neighbors are Boeing guys. If they lose their jobs, my house drops even more in value. Related link from today's paper: More job losses...to the South and Far East.

The best training advice yet. So if you are planning on a serious flash this weekend, plan ahead! linky

For once I picked the right games. Thus, Fri and Sunday! On Friday I was bummed I would miss Fister and see Snell but it worked out ok. It'so sad only two more Safeco dates left. Hey Porter - I kept looking for you down in the Diamond Club, all I could see was that cute perky usher Paula - We are waiting for your wine and cheese review!

Dru -You're thinking this sport......

With the Z-man and Wak leading the charge ...He is on a real team! You guys are starting to piss me off! I wanna see little Joey Cora crying again! I just can't find that pic and my Seattle Times with it is in the safety deposit box at the bank

Oh and by the way: Hat #2 Green Hydroplane!

Speaking of spring:

Ah Clearly you weren't a school boy watching Jr spider up the walls in the King Dome. Ichiro rules too....there is room for all - even DC squatters - in the Love Fest!

Livin' large and correct.

I'm sitting in a $7.00 seat at the start of the game and will be in a $45.00 seat by the top of the 6th. Along the way it's DOGS, BEER, and PEANUTS! I'm a traditionalist!

Even the lame fans in the Diamond club seats would turn against you for doing that.........and dont let me see you ordering red wine at a baseball game........

Revive '95!
