  1. Consult a qualified financial consultant NOW and start planning for your retirement NOW. Learn about Roth IRA's NOW. Do not take your financial advise off of a Bills discussion board. You've already received some crappy advise and you're likely to get more.

  2. or, Take 2:

    We are world leaders, why don't we start acting like a leading nation and do something cutting edge, and lead the way out of the fossil fuel mess? It's much better than taking the juvenile approach of complaining that things are unfair. If we have eliminated our fossil fuel consumption while nations like China and Russia and Iran are stuck in first gear trying to figure out how to support their countries on limited resources, better for America, innit?

     

    Sounds like Hillary's the candidate for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1PfE9K8j0g

  3. People don't know him because NFL Live doesn't show highlights of 4th quarter sacks on the Bears backup when it's 34-7.

  4. loved using the electronic machines. It had a little keyboard feature that allowed me to type NONE OF THE ABOVE.

     

    That's my new crusade for 2008. To get "none of the above" on as many ballots as is possible.

    Richard Pryor already tried that in Brewster's Millions.

  5. I don't understand why you guys are having problems with the Baquaspa.  Perhaps your water is simply much harder than mine.  Of course, I do have a whole house filter...

    I participate in a few hot tub forums and Baquaspa seems to be a love it or hate it product. I've never tried it myself, I use dichlor.

  6. Try Little Italy if you are interested in Italian. Lot's of great restaurants. Do not get dessert at the restaurant, go to Vacarro's. I haven't been to Little Italy in a few years but I always like Amicci's (casual and not too pricey).

    For some awesome micro-brewed Belgian style beer (and a great restaurant too), try The Brewer's Art. There is a nice restaurant and lounge on the upper level and a dark bar in the lower level. You can get the full menu in the restaurant and they have a seperate menu for the bar areas.

  7. Not giving owners a pass. Here is a pretty good site breaking down that statistics of fatal dog attacks.  Here is a bit from its

     

    "The CDC study (using 238 breed identifications) concludes that Pit Bulls and Rottweilers are responsible for over 50% of all human fatalties due to dog bite during the years 1979-1998."

    Not as one sided as I thought it would be but stil kinda points out what Im trying to say.

    Perhaps you need to read more of that link you posted that supposedly supports your position. Try reading the section "Politics and Pit Bulls". Here's part of that:

     

    "It is extremely rare for any breed of dog to attack and kill an owner or an immediate family member. Pit bulls fatal attacks are not substantially different in pattern, victim profile or in contributory risk factors than other breed attacks.

    In otherwords, the same type of scenario is seen in fatal Pit bull attacks as with other breeds of dogs, namely: intact/breeding dogs, chained dogs, unsupervised children, unfamiliar child, dogs obtained for protection, mulitple dog situation, etc. (see: NCRF Page "Fatal Attack Studies").

    These factors are of vital importance, because although 3 children were killed by Pit bulls in 1999, an additional 19 children were killed that same year by other (non-Pit Bull) breeds of dogs. So while Pit Bulls and aggression grab the headlines, these other 19 young victims go virtually unnoticed in a climate of breed hsyteria - and any lessons we may have learned about the cause of their tragedies are overshadowed by the Great Pit Bull Debate."

     

    You hear about Pit Bull attacks because it makes for sensational news and feeds people's fear and ignorance.

     

    The following is taken from dogbreedinfo.com:

    That sly smile, those determined eyes, that unwaning pleasure to please... the mere quality and characteristics of the APBT have evoked more human emotional, rational, and irrational response than any other breed that exists today. By no means are these dogs people-haters or people-eaters. Their natural aggressive tendencies are toward other dogs and animals, not people. However if they are properly socialized they will not even be aggressive with them. These are truly quality companions for quality owners only! The American Pit Bull Terrier is a good-natured, amusing, extremely loyal and affectionate family pet, which is good with children and adults. Almost always obedient, it is always eager to please its master. It is an extremely courageous and intelligent guard dog that is very full of vitality. Highly protective of his owners and the owner's property, it will fight an enemy to the death. It is usually very friendly, but has an uncanny ability to know when it needs to protect and when everything is okay. The American Pit Bull Terrier can be willful and needs a firm hand. They are generally okay with other pets if they are raised with them from puppy hood. For the most part they are very friendly, but not recommended for most people. Excellent with children in the family, they have a high pain tolerance and will happily put up with rough child play. As with any breed, they should not be left alone with unfamiliar children. Originally used as fighting dogs, the powerful American Pit Bull may go for the throat of strange dogs. A minimum of training will produce a tranquil, obedient dog. Socialize very thoroughly when young to combat aggressive tendencies and be sure to keep the dog under control when other dogs are present. It has given outstanding results as a guardian of property, but is at the same time esteemed as a companion dog. When properly trained and socialized, this is a very good dog and a great family companion. Unfortunately, some choose to promote the fighting instinct in the breed, giving it a bad name.

  8. As long as we are going to be arguing about Katrina and who screwed up the worst, we might as well use the facts.  FactCheck.org has a good article with lots of information that looks pretty solid and balanced to me.  For those interested:

    This Washington Post article is a much better article about overall funding.

  9. What the hell are you implying here?  The US shouldn't fund scientific research because it's not outlined in the Constitution?  I've heard of strict interpretation, but that's just nuts.

    "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. "

     

    Those are some of the "nuttiest" and "craziest" words I've ever read. :blush:

  10. its all about delivering the $$$ to their donors and voters.  neither party is at fault, the problem is a byproduct of corporate influence, vote seeking, and all the free money from washington

    The problem is the voters. Voters love pork when it's being brought back to their district or state. It's all the other pork that's bad. Voters continue to reward this with reelection of incumbants.

  11. Club for Growth

     

    I find no shortage of examples of groups who would like to see the Republican party move even further to the right.  They are cetainly not balanced out by any groups seeking to move the party back to the middle which leads me to believe that the Party is nowhere near done moving ever rightward.

    Did you even read the article that you linked to?
