It is not all that bad now. It will go up when it wants too. It always does. One of the few things that could stop it would be a new rounds of tax hikes. When I was in retail the company I worked for at the time tried to bring some of it's clothing manufacturing back into the US. They could NOT...

Think about this one: Prior to assasinating Lincoln, John Wilkes Booth went to the Oil City/Titusville area in western PA. He inevested in oil wells at the same time Rockerfeller etc. did. All his were dry holes. How different would things be if he had struck oil? Layoutshooter

Boy we did do without. We used to have to make "MOCK HAMBURGERS" because we could not afford ground beef. Mock hambergers where made from bread, eggs, salt, pepper, garlic powder, diced onions ( when they were ripe in the garden) and a splash of milk. You broke up the bread into little pieces...

During the recession of '58 we used to "re-cyle" the waxed paper in cereral boxes to use to wrap sandwiches. Hey how many of you out there remember free light bulbs? Well into the late '60's we could take our burned out light bulbs to the Detroit Edison store in Trenton Michigan. We would turn...

Coffee would be nice, have one on me. What we all need is a really good run. I just woke up so I can sleep during the day. Have to get ready for a long run over the weekend. As to the election, I am still praying that there is a major earthquake the night before. One that only wipes out the...

Geez guys, since when was being gay, lesbian, American Indian or what ever any business of the President of the United States? Or health care for physical or mental illness? Or broken levees?

We like FedEx, they fit us. They have been straight with us so I assmuse that they are straight with most everyone else. If I had enough trucks, someday I hope too, I would consider spreding them around the horn. I like the not too many eggs in one basket. Just like a stock portfolio. But's...

OVM, We and Canada and the rest of the world stood by after the Soviets started the cold war by closing the border crossings in Europe in the late 1940's. About 25 MILLION innocent people died. We and Canada and the rest of the world turned our back on our WW2 allies in China and we don't even...

There is no longer any need for the kinds of things that lead to the wars of the past. No need to control entire populations, like China. No need to murder millions, like Russia will be doing again soon. No need to build a military to the total demise of your population, Like North Korea. No...
