  1. read about it
  2. Thank God none of you have discovered Sauk yet! Although Alpinemonkey will soon be spraying about how great it is.
  3. Well he'd help fill some seats! I thought of CC.com when I read this on a baseball forum:
  4. Matt I still feel sad when J_B appears so bitter and angry.........I really do see him screaming at the bullies.
  5. Funny thing being called a goon reminded me of the song "Goon Squad" by EC. From there is was a short step to enjoying some of the early Clash albums. I was thinking all Clash albums were good until Sandinista. This made me miss my wife who, oddly enough, is currently in El Salvador providing free medical care to the poor. Funny how the mind works. J_B's insults just inpsired a bunch of good thoughts!
  6. The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
  7. I think the larger sizes of Crack N Ups (3,4,5?) were designed for free climbing. At least that's why I bought them. That said a well place small Crack N Up would be much much better than a #0 or #1 RP any day of the week.
  8. One reason these threads are so one sided is that at times participating in them just makes you feel bad. For example, while reading J_B's post where he calls me a goon I couldn't help but imagine him a gawky 13 year old red in the face, tears streaming down and spaghetti ground into his hair screaming the same words to his Jr High School tormenters: “You Goons!”
  9. ..but hasn't the UAW been as evil if not worse? What about the residents of Detroit? Take Buffalo NY..... link Maybe there is a reason people moved. What do we owe those who stayed? What about those homes in flood plains down in LA and Florida? Should we rebuild and rebuild time and time again? Ever hear of Ole Knut?
  10. I think Fred was much older than 24 in the 60s.
  11. Will the answer is yes - it is printed on both sides. hey we're talking baseball her not some fucked up sport like football.
  12. Bill - her book is several years old I am sure if you look you shall find. of course she has referential authority only. Would you go to a GI specialist when you have a heart problem? Now there you go again J_B. I just advocated for free markets by calling for the elimination of patent rights and public funding of education. And now you call the existing structure "my" free market? Silly. Most of your points in these threads have to do with poor implementation of government interference in markets and yet you call for more! Keep digging you'll be in China soon. Hey how's your man Chavez doing? Turns out he was proven to support those involved in narcotic trafficing.
  13. She's a hack and been severely criticised by those with a modicum of economic knowledge. Did make one correction to the Mother Jones write-up. Eliminate patents and do away with public funding of education!
  14. While you cats have been wasting your time spraying you could have been trying to get your own personal piece of the bailout pie! Submit this!
  15. Anyone else go to this presentation? The new Mountie facility looks really spiffy. The show was fun and there was a pretty diverse crowd. The sound system needed a bit of tweaking (in otherwords it was difficult to hear everything) but otherwise it was a good presentaion. There was even a shot of CC.com's own Mister E! The only thing missing was a couple of kegs in the lobby!
  16. [video:youtube]
  17. Porter - This is a family forum please leave my balls out of the discourse.
  18. I am being pressured to pick either the Beacon Map or this: I need a bigger mancave!
  19. J_B, Trash, Prole! Listen up!
  20. Look around here J_B: http://spruce.flint.umich.edu/~mjperry/ OH and by the way wasn't there a person from VW on NPR last night saying that they were hiring 2k new workers in the us this year.....
  21. Total compensation per hour for the big-three carmakers is $73.20. That’s a 52 percent differential from Toyota’s (Detroit South) $48 compensation (wages + health and retirement benefits). In fact, the oversized UAW-driven pay package for Detroit is 132 percent higher than that of the entire manufacturing sector of the U.S., which comes in at $31.59. Journal of Clinical Oncology reports that 20% of England’s curable lung cancer patients become incurable while waiting for treatment. The British journal Lancet Oncology found that Americans have a higher survival rate than Europeans for 13 of the 16 most prominent cancers. 10% of the Canadian population is stuck on a waiting list without a primary care doctor, and another 800,000 are on another waiting list for procedures. http://www.intelligencesquaredus.org/TranscriptContainer/HealthCoverage091608_v2.pdf
