That would be a good idea to help pay for the auto company loan program or for alternative fuel technology. Set a minimum price like $2.50 a gallon, and if the actual price without tax goes lower, the difference is collected as tax. I'm concerned that people will again get complacent about energy, buy less efficient cars, and not support alternative energy programs. By not letting it get too low, it will remind people not to go back to the old bad habits.

They could probably get alot more toys if they would accept slightly used ones. People can go through their kids toys and find ones they no longer play with that are still in good shape, and would probably be more willing to do that than spend money on a new toy. Wrap it up nice, and little kids wouldn't know the difference. When he was younger I would buy used Star Wars toys on Ebay for my son, and he didn't care that they weren't new, they were what he wanted.

The issue with Palin wasn't her limited experience as much as it was her basic lack of knowledge about issues and a lack of intellectual curiousity, which made her Bush lite.

They switched from the Bills to Jets in Syracuse. Don't trust the local station websites, they don't always update.

Bills not on TV in Syracuse this weekend
PastaJoe replied to PastaJoe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I know that they show the Bills on their website, but it was announced on two different radio stations Friday, including the local sports station, that WTVH announced they were switching to the Jets. I just looked at the program schedule on Time Warner cable, and it shows the Jets on at 4pm Sunday. They will still be on the radio, 1260am. I wish I was wrong, but I don't believe I am. -
The CBS affiliate decided the Jets vs San Fran is the more attractive game. Last week the Bills weren't on FOX because they showed the Giants. The Bills play the Jets next week so that will be on, but after that they both play the last two games at the same time on CBS, so most likely they'll show the Jets for the rest of the season.

A transition official said that Favreau had "reached out to Senator Clinton to offer an apology." Looks like he already reached out to cop a feel. Hillary should corner him in a room and say, "OK big boy, let's see what you've got. Time to put up". -
Ferrotte against Detroit, or JP against Miami?
PastaJoe replied to ans4e64's topic in Fantasy Football
I would expect Minnesota to run the ball, while Buffalo will have to throw if Lynch doesn't play, so go with JP. -

The New Coach of the Bills is...
PastaJoe replied to bisonbrigade's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If we're talking about who Ralph will hire instead of who we'd want, then it will be Bobby April. He'll justify it by saying Marv Levy was once a special teams coach. -

Did anyone see the story on Planned Pernthood
PastaJoe replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Those were Planned Parenthood's own numbers from the news story. -
I just checked the jobs at Turning Stone Casino west of Syracuse, and they don't have any gaming jobs listed, just kitchen and golf course maintenance.

I'm trying to hide that they offer abortions? I just said it's not the service they promote the most, it's opponents who say that. 95% of their services are other than abortions. And I would expect that service to cost more, as it is probably the most complicated medical procedure they offer. That doesn't mean they use it as a money maker. -

PastaJoe replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I would agree if they were the ones promoting it as their primary service, but they don't. They primarily promote women's reproductive healthcare. It's those that are opposed to the abortion service they provide that have made it so well known. -
1 QB: Brett Favre @San Franciso 2 RB's: Thomas Jones @ San Francisco Michael Turner @ New Orleans 2 WR's: Greg Jennings vs Houston Lance Moore vs Atlanta I would expect alot of points from the Jets vs SF, unlike Buffalo they know how to play in the red zone. Turner is a definite play against a weak NO D. Jennings is the go-to guy in GB, and Moore has been good for at least a TD in the last few games.

Nice anti-abortion spin, but you were less than honest about the story... http://abcnews.go.com/WN/story?id=6384543&page=1 This holiday season, Indiana's Planned Parenthood is offering an unusual stocking stuffer: gift certificates redeemable for health services at clinics throughout the state. Critics paint Planned Parenthood gift certificates as abortion vouchers. In these tough economic times, the organization says it made the move toward gift certificates because it is worried that more and more people will forgo basic health care. "Women in particular are likely to forgo basic medical needs when faced with putting gas in their car or food on the table," said Planned Parenthood of Indiana's president and CEO, Betty Cockrum. Planned Parenthood provides contraception, pap smears and other routine health services for women, as well as abortions. The gift certificates, ranging in values from $25 to $100, can be redeemed for all clinic services. The Indiana branch is selling the gift certificates on its Web site, touting it as a way to give the gift of health this holiday season. But the vouchers are sparking controversy. Some anti-abortion supporters see it as less about the gift of affordable health care and more about making a mockery of the holidays. "This campaign to offer lethal gift certificates that Planned Parenthood is engaging in right now is offensive," said Sister Diane Carollo, director of the Office for Pro-Life Ministry for the Catholic Archdiocese of Indianapolis. "And it's offensive because Christmas is about the celebration of human life." Planned Parenthood is quick to argue some 95 percent of women who come to their clinics come for basic health services -- not abortion. "It's about basic health care. It's about annual exams, it's about pap smears, it's about birth control," said Cockrum. "I would be amazed if a dime of it goes toward an abortion." -
