    Cuba de-listed

    Boehner is like a reverse barometer. If Obama declares that Boehner is right, and says we must never lift the embargo, then Boehner will take steps to immediately lift it.

    Has anyoe heard of On Call Logistics?

    It's an online screen name, that I can't recall ever seeing as being used as a recruiting tool. I don't recall him doing a lot of preaching, about anything, back when he drove his own van or when he got involved in running the carrier. So I'm not sure what to infer from that. I'm just not sure...

    You'll probably have to deliver to the alley around back, so that's something to keep in mind.

    Dennis Hastete indicted

    Even when extortion exists, they often look at which is the most egregious, the extortion or something else. In any case, for it to be extortion, Haster would have to at the very least allege that he was the victim of an extortion. But the indictment said Hastert denied to the F.B.I. that he was...

    Unions, workers best friend

    No, there really isn't a comparison between unions being exempted from wage laws and conservatives telling others what they can and cannot do. There would be in conservatives wanted to ban abortions for liberals but exempt conservatives. A better comparison would be various laws, like hand...

    Craving McDonald's?

    Yes they are. And they're juicy. They're just not thick and juicy like Wendy's, they're thin and juicy. The thing in common is, both start off with unfrozen ground beef.

    Dennis Hastete indicted

    Well, no, but it could have been... A: I'm going to go public. H: Please don't do that. I'll pay you a really, really lot to stay quiet. A: Cool. (awesome pun, BTW)

    Has anyoe heard of On Call Logistics?

    Covenant Transport or if Chattanooga is famous for beating over the head with the Bible in one hand, while using the other hand to steal your wallet. In any case, I don't really recall Preacher Rich using religion as an avenue of trust.

    Craving McDonald's?

    McDonald's announced the other day that they're going to change the way they sear the burgers, and how long they are cooked. Because, searing a frozen patty 30 seconds after it hits the grill is what's making them dry. <snort> I've had juicier burgers at Steak and Shake, where they smash the...

    Unions, workers best friend

    Yes, that is the part that matters. Unfortunately for some, a fetus is neither a baby nor a person. It's not even a being until it is no longer a potential being and becomes an actual being (adjective - human type of being).

    Here We Go Again

    Safeway is pretty big. They're mostly out west and in the central part of the country, but they also have stores in the mid Atlantic coastal region. Safeway (about 1400 stores) and Albertsons (about 1000) merged when Cerebrus Capital bought them. They, among with Jewel-Osco and a few other...

    CERN has reached a new milestone.

    In 2010 it cost roughly $20 billion to provide air conditioning inside the temporary tents and housing in Iraq and Afghanistan. The high cost is mostly due to the fuel used to power the air conditioners, and the trucks that bring the fuel. It doesn't include the cost of blown-up trucks from...

    Best way is take the train from Jersey to Penn Station, then grab a cab.

    CERN has reached a new milestone.

    And ironically, it was the shortsightedness and unwillingness of American to fund the LHC that caused it to be built elsewhere. http://www.texasmonthly.com/story/how-texas-lost-worlds-largest-super-collider

    Breaking down while on a load

    Little bit. Had multiple instances open on the phone and it got sent to the wrong thread. I'll move it when I get the laptop back on. Sorry about that.
