  1. Recover and retire already. No need for him to continue "working".
  2. It's all spliced together. I doubt she said any of those words on tape ever. Splice together her saying No, dig and her. There you are.
  3. Let see, The price of a barrel of oil is set by speculators in the financial market. The Saudis said that they are running at near capacity. The use of cars has increased severalfold in Russia, China, and India, three of the worlds most populated countries. China is the worst polluting country on earth. We haven't built a new refinery since the 70s. We can't drill in Alaska and offshore, while Cuba is. Yeah, it's all Bush's fault
  4. The two Safeway stores in my town are probably rthe nicest ones in the whole chain. They are the closest to the Corporate HQ, which is in the next town, just across the Interstate. I've seen bunches of corporate bigwigs walking around in there. As an old fart, i complained that they moved everything around after they remodeled.
  5. Get back on the F'n topic and take the politics to the PPP!
  6. Lighten up. William Shatner was on yesterday and he played his bit with Shatner's latest audio book. Shatner was a hoot. Of course he went into the "Homo Room" with Stern when he was on regular radio. George Takei, who is also on often has laughed at this bit with him.
  7. The grocery store business has changed. My father worked in the warehouse at P. J. Schmidt. One summer, around 1969 they had a college kid working during his summer break. It was Burt Flickinger III, son of the owner of Flickingers. They had a no nepotism policy and the owner stuck to it. The father (Jr) asked Peter J. Schmidt himself if his on could work there to get experience in the industry. My father said that he worked like any new hire unloading trucks and boxcars and stacking items on the pallets and was not shown any favoritism at all.
  8. No matter how weird San Francisco is, Santa Cruz is much stranger.
  9. I have to run to Santa Cruz tomorrow. Part of my job is to go to the Recorder's office to look up deeds. Recently the recorders offices have been jammed with people getting birth certificates for their passports. Tomorrow, it is going to be clogged with gay couples getting licenses. I expect to see some weird looking characters there. Having the TV cameras is going to draw the freaks, especially in Santa Cruz. At least it will be cooler there (80 vs 100 here today).
  10. I've talked to Exiled via PM before and his uncle knew my father (I remember hearing his uncle's name mentioned). The Dubels Bells store at the Como Mall was where we went. My father worked at the Peter J Schmidt warehouse from 1961 until he retired in 1988. Schmidt franchised Bells and the warehouse was on Broadway near the Thruway. Loblaws was a Canadian company (William Shatner did commercials for them in the early 70s (between jobs). They had their warehouse across from the airport on Genesee - my uncle (mother's brother ) worked there. They both eventually were bought by a big conglomerate . In the 70s, the Loblaws name was dropped and all the warehouse facilities moved to Genese St.
  11. Mr. Mortgage must have gotten hired at Mc D's. He hasn't posted since Tuesday.
  12. I have a job for him : "James McGreevey, Male Prostitute."
  13. From the article : "Proposition 22, which strengthened the state's 1978 one-man, one-woman marriage law with the words "Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California," passed with 61 percent of the vote." Propositions in California are amendments to the state Constitution.
  14. A bunch of nuts on the State Supreme Court overturned an AMENDMENT TO THE STATE CONSTITUTION that 61% of the state voted for. These propositions are amendments to the constitution. How can an amendment that was legally passed be declared unconstitutional? They also did that to another proposition that denied non emergency benefits to illegals.
  15. The minaturization of computers was accelerated by the need to put computers in the Apollo ships. The original command module computers had less power than disposable calculators do today. By the last flights in 1972, the astronauts were using HP calculators behind the moon to help calculate burn times.
  16. Obama has been rated the most liberal senator, even ahead of Bernie Sanders of Vermont, a declared socialist.
  17. Like I said before, dems are racist. I hate Hillary and Obama equally because they are both socialists
  18. Big deal, there was another supernova visible in daylight. The Crab Nebula, a well known feature, is the remnants of a supernova which exploded in 1054. It could be seen during the day and at night was brighter than everything except the moon. It faded and was still visible at night for 2 years (telescopes were not invented yet).
  19. You mean she hasn't paid taxes for her employees and owes someone about $250K?
