  1. It's unbelievably short sighted to get on the bad side of the people feeding you.
  2. When I pay with my credit card I always inform the waitstaff member that I will tip in cash so he/she may decide for his/herself whether to share with the rest of the staff and Uncle Sam.
  3. Yet we'll still add to the deficit. We should give them some more money.
  4. I don't think he's got the stones to greet anyone who hasn't been vetted for friendliness or verified as a donor.
  5. They didn't ask for money so I guess not.
  6. Everyone calls me that. You get used to it. I have no idea how to interpret my results. They just told me what I already know.
  7. Boehner has said many times that he's not agreeing to tax increases so any pan that includes tax increases (anything Obama will ever in a million years propose) is disingenuous politicking.
  8. No need to kill their theme with technicalities.
  9. My daughter downloaded some game on my iphone and I play it every morning while I do my toilet time. It's the only time I ever play games on the phone. Do Not Disturb is my default setting. I rarely answer a call that isn't my wife, daughter, or mom. I call back when I get around to it. If someone puts in ear buds or starts playing with their phone while I'm talking I just walk away. Yes. I'm a grumpy old fart. I'm cool with that.
  10. The point of his rant was that all currency is going to be inflated to worthlessness, not just social security.
  11. Thanks. Whoever chose Tuco for me is a in my head. It's always cool when somebody know who arch stanton is.
  12. The cool part is that they did it despite having to battle the mother from conception.
  13. With any luck, streaming will finally kill the commercial tv industry.
  14. He's right about one thing. If you expect your cash to be worth anything in 20 years you're going to be very disappointed.
  15. I don't think Trout will make it to arbitration, much less free agency. I don't see anything in Arte's history to cause any worry.
  16. I'm sure it would be much tougher to do but I hope they remove specific testing rules from the CBA and maybe form a panel from both sides who can evaluate the changes in PED's and determine the testing requirements for the given season. It just seems if you have to renegotiate at every turn then you're always behind the curve and it's just a race to make the other side look like the enablers.
  17. Last weekend I revisited all 3 seasons of Deadwood. Still my favorite series. This weekend maybe a Vietnam trilogy. Platoon. Apocalypse Now. Deer Hunter. If it gets too depressing I'll switch to The Blues Brothers or Animal House.
  18. It's not the roast beef. It's the mayo. I will not eat mayo that does not come directly out of my refrigerator.
  19. Dishwasher in a steak and seafood restaurant. Not the guy putting the plates in the rack and sliding them through to automatic washer. I was the guy scrubbing the baked on crap off the pots and pans in the water so I hot I could barely stand to stick my hands in. Not the most enjoyable way to earn $3.65 an hour.
  20. I don't feel like going shopping today so dinner will be a ham sandwich on rye with horseradish mustard, a few bites out of my last jar of kimchee, mango slices, and maybe a few plain Ruffles dipped is salsa.
  21. Diversity of skills is going to become a survival necessity. I highly recommend that anyone who can qualify for tuition for anything take the opportunity.
  22. The only way to "fix" Washington is to stop giving them all that money to fight over.
  23. If my wife were only fertile for 2 day a year my boat would be paid off by now.
