It might seem that way, but the math on food and prep costs in restaurants are not linear. Smaller portions yield smaller profit margins for a myriad of reasons I will go into if someone needs a sleep inducement. But a $12.95 meal would require it to be priced at around $7.80 to $7.95 for half...

I guess we're talking about two different organizations then.

It seems to be rather accurate, other than the errant statement of, "Rep. Ron Paul falsely claimed the International Atomic Energy Agency “did not find any evidence” that Iran is “on the verge of a [nuclear] weapon.” It wasn't a false claim. The author of the piece equates "one the verge of"...

Look closer (and read the directions when you get them). The blades are installed at a slight angle, tilted upwards towards the passenger side.

The ACLU is against things which are unconstitutional. You think unconstitutional things are okie dokie? I can't think of a single one that is, or would be. Not one.

People are scared to death of freedom. They like the sound of it, and they like a semblance of it, but real freedom, that scares most people. "Who will take care of me?"

Not true, not true. Read all of the regs of that section, including the definitions. General applicability. - Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration The General Applicability of Part 390 apply to "all employers, employees, and commercial motor vehicles, which transport property or...

This lady is crazy. Everybody knows the job of a legislator is to legislate as much as possible. The more laws the better. Everybody knows the job of government is to take our money and spend it in a way that's best for us, because the government knows what's best for us. Everybody knows it's...

Looks like a white Obama, dudn't it? :D

You mean he was working <gasp> on New Year's Eve?!?! Yeah, it makes a good case that they're not all that "leftie". The Patriot Act is pretty bad, this is pretty bad, but the two combined creates an awesome tool for the up and coming dictator who wants to take control of the Republic by...

It's about politics, and used t-shirts and smiling as the venue. Moderating in moderation, with great restraint, moderately speaking.

No it doesn't. Strawman. That assumes he was managing the newsletters, and/or he knew about them at the time. Most of the voting public could care less about his old newsletters. They are much more concerned with the economy and jobs. He "should have allowed time" also assumes he was involved...

Ever sat in a booth at Huddle House? They're not Big Rig Sized at all.

That's quite a read, but one that should be required reading for participation in The Soapbox, with a test to ensure it was comprehended properly. :D A link to the original would have been nice. I had to expend effort to find it (OK, I clicked on one of the footnote links, but still). I click...

It's well known (among newspaper editors and reporters, and those of us who took journalism courses in school, anyway) that most people read either the headline only, or the headline plus the first four paragraphs of a story, before moving on to something else. That's why, in a big important...

Well, no, I'm really not. I was talking about Fox and Friends, but it's certainly easy enough to lump them altogether, since all of the shows come from the same marching orders. They are all, more or less, the same. Nothing wrong with that, except they try and pass themselves off as impartial...

It's really a badly written story. The author presents a premise that Paul is racist and otherwise pure evil, yet he screwed the pooch and failed utterly to provide a credible foundation for the premise when he used Paul's own quotes from the book, all of which are NOT racist, but are the...

Which is why anyone who watches Fox News and thinks they're getting "fair and balanced", or even honest news, are fools. Fools, I tell you, fools!
