Yes. Shumer has nothing to lose and everything to gain by fighting for NYS's football team. Its part of the reason this Republican hopes the US Senate stays Democrat. Keep Shumer as powerful as ever until the Bills issue is decided. Hell, he may even end up as Senate majority leader in the not-so-distant future and he knows the easiest way to keep upstate firmly behind him is to fight for the Bills. He's already done it and I think he'll do it again.

What's wrong with manual transmission? Been driving them my whole life and would never buy a car with automatic transmission.

The point of the article really is that the economy, as measured by GDP, contracts when taxes are raised and expands when they are lowered. The 19.5% of GDP simply says that the government takes in the same % of GDP no matter the tax rates. If the goverment wants to expand the economy, and take in more revenue, it will lower taxes, thereby increasing GDP.

Nice!! On Fulton, I go as far as Strand...thats it! But you see, I worked at One Liberty Plaza for about 8 years, 6 post-9/11. Everybody climbing onto our building to get their "shot" of Ground Zero. Every wacko with a consipracy agenda...on our sidewalk. The new Disneyland!! Coupled with the above explanations on Broadway, makes it tough, but funny.

You have the various walks.... The fattie waddle The "multicultural" strut The tourist pack And the rest of us just trying to get out for a sandwich and get back to work.

Yeah, but they may soon get caught and end up cutting deals with DOJ.

Espcially on Broadway in Lower Manhattan on a nice day. Simply awful.

This article claims that tax revenue, no matter the marginal tax rates, has been approximately 19.5% of GDP since 1950. There have been very small deviations, no matter if marginal tax rates have risen, fallen or remained constant. Its a point I have long argued, but less eloquently than the article states. Interesting Article

You mean the (hopefully) Lakers-Celtics NBA finals?

Amen, Bill, amen!

La Nova rocks!! My fav pizza and pretty solid wings as well. I also had some La Nova pizza and wings delivered. Expensive as hell, but awesome.

Happily. There is plenty.

When I bought my Wrangler, I called several dealer, told them exactly what I wanted on the car and had them fax me a term sheet. Many of them did not want to do this, I said...I don't have the time to waste, I'm calling several dealers and will go to the one with the best price. I ended up with a pretty fair deal (I thought), considering everything I put on the Jeep.

I'm sure the car is nice and has all the features...when Ed bought his, he referred to it as a metrosexual machine...you can figure out how it got ugly.

Old TBD reference. You were around when Ed just bought his Fit? Funny stuff.

Great memory...I watched the game amidst rabid New Englanders in a sh%thole of a place known as Block Island. They were quite quiet for a while.

So you drive a Honda Fit and are trying to justify it?

Jeep Wrangler. You get the 4WD in the winter, it kicks a$$ on the offroad, and you get a convertible in the summer.

Yep. Commodities Speculation (Enron Loophole)/Weak Dollar/Increased Demand I didn't think it would stay at $1.10, but under $2.00 should be reasonable. Unfortunately, I don't think we'll those type of prices for quite some time.

Boooo...we still do it. Just about everyone is married and most have kids. Octoberfest is one of our two "Guys Weekends" every year. Just go up and booze for three days. We rent the chalet and 10-12 guys come every year.

Its not even funny and obviously very edited. Stern really needs to get a fresh shtick.

You remember correctly. Fun course, a bit challenging at times, and gorgeous. I try to play there whenever I get back to WNY in golfing season.

Real nice course, just out 20A from the stadium about 30-40 minutes is Byrncliff. Enjoy. http://www.byrncliff.com/

Pretty cool, I hadn't seen that one. At least they are starting to produce nice looking cars for the eco-crowd. The Prius, Fit et. al. are just embarassing...golf carts with windows. I've said...when Jeep builds an eco-friendly Wrangler that has off-road capability, then sign me up. Till then, forget it.

Colts, Braves, Red Wings and Steelers are all run right. But the best run has to be the Spurs.
