THERMOGENESIS!

I'll remember that.

You vote democrat, whose legacy of big government has never gone away. Then don't complain when you have to cough up 8K come tax time. There are penalties for this as well (following certain rules) . Then you are just one of the rich and have no business complaining. :-) Us poor folks don't have to pay 8K 'cos we don't get any capital gains.

It's incremental. Government grows with each administration, and, like "sticky wages" in economics, you have "sticky big government". When power shifts to the other party they grow government in different areas, at different rates, but it is rare to cut anything once it's been established. As long as people are in the mindset that the government owes them, and must take care of every problem, the nanny state will only grow. Hence, we reap what we sow.

you reap what you sow: big gov't = big taxes. :-)) 8K? you might consider adjusting the # of exemptions on your W-4, BTW...

Good, there's hope for you yet.

What sense of humor? You mean your hackneyed, trite stereotypes? <yawn/>

Exactly. A sure sign that someone is losing an argument and is in total desperation is when they start comparing their opponents to Hitler and the Nazi party.

chuyesh dzvin ta ne znayesh de j vin how many people from E. Europe, or prospective suitors to these brides do you actually know?

why the affected southern accent? there's plenty of people on the left coast ordering mail-order brides.

Home equity loan - I can see that. Sell your house? I think there's flawed logic there. If your house is appreciating, then generally so are those around you. You'll either have to downsize, or move farther from where you'd like to be, or to a less-desirable area (e.g. higher crime, poor schools).

Is that defined to include contributions to 401(k) funds, IRAs and so on? Or is it only including standard savings accounts, CDs, and so on? Personally, I've probably put about 0% in savings the last few years, and a hell of a lot in to retirement funds.

It's that time again for: "Are you an REI member? Would you like to use your dividend today? Do you have an REI credit card? Are you a member? Would you like to use your 20% off today? Are you a member? Did you know members get 20% off?..."

Worse than Jackson? I agree one of the biggest turds we have had ever but all time worst? Jackson was impeached... A. Johnson was impeached. Bush is not the worst president, just a mediocre one falling in the middle, a few places below Clinton.

a bried interruption to another left-wing circle jerk in progress:

As a punishment for animal cruelty, "Gerbil Shooter Jim" was forced to run naked in a giant gerbil cage wheel.

you got blue balls?

Knelson, you are correct. The gully lies beneath a very steep section of cliff. As shown by the Red Dot on this map. In the summer there is a nice waterfall there that empties into a pool. The winter trail tends to traverse below the waterfall a bit (at least the year I was last up there it did). In the summer the traverse is on rocks on a sidewalk-width trail. In the winter you're on a narrow, icy boot path over a steep slope.

Indeed. Requiescat in pace.

The Hawks blew it. Sack up you whining wanna be's. Already the Seattle "fans" are crying about whether Alexander is worth paying for next year and whether Holmgren should stay. Fair weather fans blow. Oh, yeah, one for the thumb baby!

29 months... you got a long haul ahead of you...
