I second that! man, the cynicism is in full effect today

do they get better mileage than a SmartCar?

had ouzo once, and I didn't enjoy it, and i didn't... never mind. gotta try it again. I have some metaxa at home... it's good to have on occasion, for variety.

I have met Fairweather and I didn't find him to be an unpleasant individual - face to face. We trade insults on line and indeed I've accused him of being over-the-top obnoxious in this very thread, but I bet you would do OK to meet him for cup of coffee or a beer. someday I owe *you* a beer, Matt.

you and V7 have a lot in common

Good questions, Jay. Consider the case of Vietnam. Over the course of a few decades the French and Americans killed millions of Vietnamese - combatants and non-combatants alike. Their country was destroyed, jungles deforested. They have every reason to hate us and want to exact revenge. But do we see Vietnamese terrorists plotting to destroy our country? Do they have protects where they burn our flag and chanting "America is Satan"? If we printed some cartoons mocking their country, people, government and way of life, would they seek to kill the authors and publishers of said cartoons. It seems there's more to it in the case of those in middle eastern countries who want us destroyed - including countries we have never invaded, nor in which we have killed millions. I wonder, just what the difference could be...

Seahawks, STFU - "we" don't need you on "our" side.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to practicing with the kids again this year... and watching the games.

gotta love the baseball analogy to how far you get with a girl. :-)

Time to roll back the clock. Fuck the bridge to the 21st century.

Brokeback Baseball? Ewww.

War and the Economy, yep. Those are too tough though. Baseball, well that's easy!

I don't know. They should get tax breaks too, but that's as far as I'd go.

agreed. WTF???? all intrusive, meddling federal gov't

where is the love, man?

so, why not have some rich financers and maybe some grass roots organizations who care about this issue set up a completely non-profit insurance company whose goal is to minimize operating costs and hassle for it's subscribers while paying for as much of health costs to it's subscribers with an affordable premium? no, i'm not talking about the federal government, but a private non-profit company.
