  1. What do you base that on? BTW - this has begun - the Chinese are starting drilling operations for the Cubans in the Gulf of Mexico. Nice, eh? http://money.cnn.com/2006/05/09/news/econo..._cuba/index.htm
  2. You harbor hate for BASIC hard-coded in ROM in early IBM PC's? When 64Kb of RAM was a real big thing and they chose not to steal from that by making it occupy RAM?
  3. 64616d6e20726967687421
  4. I'm for honesty in government, so they really ought to replace the Capitol Building flagpole with that.
  5. Your quickness, uptake...appreciation of nuance...is notable...
  6. ASSEMBLER! Far Jump...
  7. Because a flat tax removes the power of 535 people to favor or destroy this one or that one, removes the power to punish or reward in exchange for money to get re-elected? Can't totally blame the Gang of 535, though. Huge numbers of voters are adept and wise to the fact that their votes extract $$$ from others, to their benefit. All it takes is an hour of inconvenience, once a year.
  8. ...and entered into the popular lexicon, along with other nifty ditties: - "Plausible deniability." - "There is no controlling legal authority." - "I have no direct recollection of that". - "I did not have sex with that woman". - "This will be the most ethical Administration ever".
  9. I'm just hoping that the Saudis stop drilling - because for far too long - they have been hurting the habitat of the Arabian sand flea. How their Senators and Representatives get re-elected without bending over for the Green vote, I will never understand...
  10. Hillary wins the swing States -> Hillary is a swinger. Who knew???
  11. "Ask not what the meaning of 'if' is... Ask what the meaning of 'is', 'is'.". - Wm. J. Clinton
  12. 5 mis-spellings. Have you been drinking? What's your position on companies that fire or threaten to fire employees who smoke, or are overweight?
  13. I think you are missing Thurman's contention. He dried up - he did what he was told to do by the NFL and by the court. He wanted to return to work. But the NFL commissioner refused to reinstate him, and added on another year of suspension. Thurman's suit was filed months ago - you seem to assume that it is some ploy cooked up the day before yesterday, in response to his being cut by CIN .
  14. As did the bald-headed skinflint from Cincinnati.
  15. He successfully completed his court-ordered alcohol treatments while he was suspended for the '06 season. But Goodell would not lift the suspension for 2007 - Thurman felt (and I agree with him) that he was not re-instated because at the time the Vick story was raging. He filed a lawsuit against the NFL, claiming that alcohoism is a disease per the Americans with Disabilities Act.
  16. A nice purchase. 4 wheel discs, anti-lock brakes, brake assist, air bags all around, anti-skid. These things are loaded - standard - with the contemporary safety features at rock-bottom prices.
  17. FWD or AWD? I would personally prefer its' sister construction, the Patriot, for its' better driver visibility. Unfortunately - as it the norm - you have to submit to rear privacy glass and the diminished night visibility in anything but the bare-bone versions. That's not unique to Jeep, of course.
  18. Then buy a sedan (you can call it a saloon, to give it an European air, which will let you punch your man card with a back-patting "well done!"). The Ford 500 - renamed Taurus for MY 2007 - has a high roof line, very generous interior space and driver visibility, and has a trunk that will hold 5 golf bags or four dead RayFinkles. Decent gasoline mileage. There is an AWD option. http://consumerguideauto.howstuffworks.com...rd-taurus-5.htm
  19. Right... He had a great chance to get back on track. I doubt that the person that passed on would have wanted him to throw his future in doubt again, especially such a lucrative financial one as NFL pay, and what it could do for others if he was of the mind to share...
  20. Should we search here? http://gunsandammomag.com/ga_handguns/index.html
