    Happy Birthday Shelled One :-)

    Thanks. Got the turbo and a couple of glow plugs replaced today. Will be heading to Patti's 1880s Settlement for dinner. Still waiting on this QC message to come in:

    400,000 kids out of school, Windy City

    Guilds and unions go back well before the 15th century, back to the 3rd century, and really even before that back as far as Ptolemaic Egypt in the 3rd century BC. The early guilds, and those up to more recent times, were confraternities of workers, similar to religious confraternities, where...

    US confirms ambassador killed in Libya

    Well, he did say "tsk tsk" and shake his finger at them. That's pretty stern.

    US confirms ambassador killed in Libya

    It was not only planned, but preordained by Allah.

    Costs of Leaving Panther?

    I'm sure it is. It's the "other things" that can drive you crazy until you figure it out. Once you figure it out you can then embrace the stupidity. Until that happens, the money, how ever much it is, doesn't quite seem worth it.

    Costs of Leaving Panther?

    It took me nearly a year to get Panther all figured out. Once I did, I did quite well there.

    400,000 kids out of school, Windy City

    I don't know if it's a planned event in the sense of a Marxist takeover of the country, but it is, nonetheless, classic Marxism. That's what unions are all about at their core, anyway, and considering the funds available and what the unions are asking in relation to that, it's blatant...

    Costs of Leaving Panther?

    There's a QC inspection fee of $250, IIRC. It's listed in the contract. I don't know what they charge for decal removal, if anything. They'll take that $250 out of the escrow and you should get the balance back.

    I don't think he did, either.

    I don't think so. Someone had to die for this thread to be started.

    US confirms ambassador killed in Libya

    So who do we go to war with over this? Libya and Egypt, or just Muslims in general?

    Oh, well, excuse me. Clearly that's a statement which warrants attacking me and calling me names. You are so right. I can't believe I missed that. Doh! My sincerest apology. We're circling now. You really do have a tough time with "responsible" and "irresponsible", don't you? Or is it just a...

    No I didn't attack him, I questioned his statement. What I said was, "Unless you are prepared to fully explain how such a thing is so easily done, the "likely" statement is kind of irresponsible." That's hardly an attack on Eddie. It was in the context of other questions, which he answered. But...

    Can You Quantify EOBR $$$ Benefits?

    Ray also says distracted driving is a leading cause of crashes. Apparently, anything that can cause a crash is just automatically classified as a leading cause. It's easier that way.

    I had no idea that you and Eddie were, uhm, so close. I guess that's why you ignored his opinions and attacked mine with the same exact comments you should have said to Eddie.
