    College Football

    They played a tough game---more importantly, they beat the spread!:D It's been a long stretch since any of em beat USC (Penn State back in 96), but it'll happen again.

    New Business Need Help

    $1.30 per mile when you are supplying power only doesn't sound so terrible.

    College Football

    Go Rockets! :D Fingers crossed for pulling an upset on the Buckeyes. Okay, I know that's crazy talk, but they beat U of M last year.

    Bolshevik Motors' gimmick-of-the-week

    I think Dieter Zetsche (former head of Daimler) hit it on the head a few years back when the Ford and GM started offering long no interest loans to boost sales. He said something along the lines of "they are mortgaging their future sales. There are only so many people at any given time that...

    I think the real question is: At the end of the day, is he better off where is he's at now?

    New Safety Rating Methodology

    Okay--I was bored and playing around on the FMCSA website and came across proposed changes to the scoring methodology. In the "CSA 2010--Comprehensive Safety Analysis 2010" document, there is a scoring section for Driver Fitness. One of the penalties listed is section 391.11b2 "Non-english...

    mackinac bridge area

    Nice photos Jack! We were heading south over the bridge a few months ago and had to do a chinese fire drill out in the middle (wife was driving and got sick). Fortunately didn't hold traffic up too bad. When I stepped down out of the passenger side you could see right down through the metal...

    Tonight's Healthcare Speech.....

    Disappointed (not surprised) to find nothing new in the speech. The shout of "You Lie" was amusing, but uncalled for. Just as bad as Obama's ridicule of the Bush administration after taking office.

    Tonight's Healthcare Speech.....

    I'd rather hear it from him firsthand and come up with my own opinion. Trusting the political pundits seems like just a different flavor of Koolaid dontya know.

    Marching orders

    East Germany had the Staatsicherheitsdienst or Stasi for short. Program that neighbors spying on and reporting each other. I was reminded of that when I read of the "flag" email set up by the White House.

    Handgun recommendations

    Thanks for all the suggestions. I have never owned, fired, or thought about firing a hand gun. I've hunted a little and have rifles, but no handguns. I like the idea of the bedside gunsafe as well as the flashlight. Greg--to your point, we live in what I think is probably considered one...

    Marching orders

    Obama Jugend! Jeder Zeit fuer den Krieg bereit! Win over the hearts and minds of the nations youth. Appeal to their idealism and prey on their naivete. Scare and intimidate the elderly by threatening their fixed incomes and medical access. Create distractions for the rest of the...

    Handgun recommendations

    :) We should get a dog and she always locks up at night---I know for the most part it's common sense stuff. It's just unnerving to have it happen so close. Nobody was hurt next door---they didn't even wake up until they heard the burglar (s) close the door on their way out!:eek: They made...

    Handgun recommendations

    Might not be the right forum here...feel free to move it. I've noticed an uptick in crime lately in our area. Normally it is further in the city, but seems to be creeping out our way now. The other night some thugs broke into one of our neighbor's house while they were home. We have...

    Hey Cash for clunkers worked.....

    I don't get these programs??? Where is the money for these government rebates coming from? I'm assuming from taxes, which means if I can't afford a new car even with the rebate; I am expected to pay taxes towards someone else getting a good deal on a car. Am I jealous--well, yeah kinda...

    Millions face shrinking Social Security payments

    OVM - so what do you propose we do with old widows that were homemakers? They may not have paid in to SSI themselves, but they most definitely worked. I don't know what the answer is, but I think we owe it to our senior citizens to support them--not be upset because they've outlived their...

    Brett Favre... make up your mind!

    Moose, moose---the sad part about the Vikings...well one of the sad parts is that they think they are the Packs biggest rival. Da Bears have always been public enemy #1 for Green Bay. The Vikings take a backseat with the Lions dontchya know. Looking forward to Nov. 1
