Or buy it from the guy on the street corner outside my office for 10 bucks.

Too bad about Orpik...I thought he would have been a great fit. Maybe we could package some of our excess RWs for a D and sign Morrison as a C.

You also pay $2.00 each time you refill your card.

Well, you realize that marijuana was legal in this country from its inception through the end of the 1930s right? And the people who supported Prohibition of alcohol and lost, then turned their efforts to marijuana. Thats the only reason it became illegal here in the first place.

Except it looks like a golf cart with windows.

The only thing I have linked to Paypal is my Amex card. I never linked a checking account. Of course, I rarely use Paypal. Also, it is a good practice to separate your accounts...checking at one bank and savings at another. My saving is ING Direct and checking is still with M&T.

What an awesome flash website!!

A Freudian slip from Goodell to the Buffalo News???? Me likey a commish who is a Bills fan and refers to the team as WE... Note he did not do this throughout the rest of the article. http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/billsnfl/story/379971.html

Excellent post and great find. Thanks for sharing.

He stole your girl didn't he?

Most judges will not allow that type of questioning from a defense attorney of a child witness. This point actually makes a whole lot of sense and may be the reason the court decided the way they did.

It is net worth. Problem is defining "income" with your flat tax. Take the painting example, when do you realize "income" ? At the sale? What if you don't sell? Under the wealth tax idea, the government realizes revenues annually from the value of the underlying insurance policy. The wealth tax idea may not be perfect, but it would be plenty enough to fund the government and then some. It would alos accelerate the economy into overdrive...pretty much indefinately.

If you really want to learn something and discuss a "fair" tax, then we can discuss the 2% wealth tax idea. The basic premise is to eliminate ALL governmental taxes and fees (State, Federal, Local etc.), and levy a 2% tax on "wealth" on every person, no deductions. Of course, wealth can be a slightly subjective measure, but taxing you on the value of the insurance policies you hold could even the playing field (e.g., you may hide a Picasso painting in your house, but you sure as hell will insure it).

Excellent use of a movie quote!

I don't know about you, but I'm thinking the best way to survive the apocalypse involves a suite at the Palms in Vegas, as much booze as I can drink and a few hookers.

When I was spending that kind of cash, I wanted to make sure I didn't get ripped off. I went to stores near my office at lunch, at the mall, in other cities (you'd be amazed how many jewlery stores are near hotels in major cities), met with jewlers via private appointment and walked through the diamond district.

LMAO!!!

I was having a discussion about possible McCain running mates and the best choice I could come up with was Mike Bloomberg. I am no fan of Bloomberg but here's why I think he could be a great chocie for McCain... 1- The economy - Bloomberg, but virtue of his business success and his success, fiscally as mayor of NYC, would be perceived as very strong on economic issues, which, IMHO, will be the single deciding issue this fall as the economy further tanks. 2- New York - McCain currently polls pretty strong upstate and in the suburbs, he is atrocious in the city. If he could pull 30% in the city, the state is in play. Then McCain could be the aggressor, taking the fight to Obama in traditional Dem strongholds and not play strictly defense in VA, GA and NC. 3- Fundraising - McCain lags behind Obama in fundraising and with Obama opting out of public funding, McCain could get massively outspent. Enter multi-billionaire who has stated in the past he will spend whatever it takes to win an election. Advantage: McCain. 4- The Jewish vote - Bloomberg would be instrumental in bringing in the Jewish vote for McCain, significant in CT, NY, NJ and FL. The Jewish vote, IMHO, is itching for a reason to ditch Obama, Bloomberg could be it. 5- The Religious Right - The conversation I had was with a member of the religious right who said that their base was totally demoralized that they did not get a pro-life candidate and have to settle for McCain. He was adamant that the VP choice wouldn't matter and many of the traditional religious right plans to stay home for this election. If so, the GOP is in some trouble...why not carve out some new ground. These are just my thoughts, feel free to jump in and discuss/criticize, but I think Bloomberg would be a very inspired choice for VP and go a long way toward helping McCain win in November.

On the other hand...in NYC, you would be barely above the poverty line.

I merely used the hydrogen car as an example. The pot of gold will be there for someone who invents a new method to power a car. I really don't know enough about hydrogen production to have an intelligent discourse on the subject.

I disagree with this. When I bought my wife's ring, I went to at least 75 stores, in various areas of the country (I traveled a lot for work back then), including many places in the District and the absolute BEST value was at Diamond Cutters in the Ellicott Square Building in Buffalo, seconded only by Bomi in Amherst. After learning, discussing and negotiating at several places, I was able to purchase a terrific diamond from Diamond Cutters with a nice setting. I ended up meeting with Diamond Cutters, told them what I wanted and how much I was willing to spend. They did not have it at the time, called me a few weeks later and told me they had a stone I may be interested in. It wasn't even cut yet. They called me and gave updates as to the cutting and what they found. I bought the stone sight unseen (I had already picked out the setting) and they sent it to me in NYC via insured mail. It really was even better than they had described. Trust me, it really is about the center stone...complementary stones are nice, but the center stone should steal the show. Everything else is secondary. Web sites... http://www.wnydiamonds.com/ http://bomigrelick.com/

It is annoying, no doubt. But when I lived in Brooklyn, I played in the mronings before work and was done in 3-4 hours. Playing on Sat/Sun is the only time it takes 5-6 and there are better/worse courses for that. One thing about Hoboken though, it rocks. Everyone there is basically just out of school and making decent money. So everyone goes out every single night in Hoboken. The town is actually only one square mile large and it has 100 bars. When I lived there, I loved it.

Take it to Al-Ross in West Seneca. I have heard that they do it well. http://www.alross.com/
