  1. Hey its not my fault. Its a part of doing business and hiring good people. Other places it is mutual.. You want all you EARN and nothing goes into those nasty socialist rainy day fund???? Tough fucking shit when it starts to pour there Bubba. Just asking for clarification-no intent to bunch your panties or rain on you entitlement parade. But since you ask, sure-give me a private option and I'd take it. I tend to make better choices with my money that the govt does. Yeah how would that have worked out for retirees had SS been privatized years ago and now they have lost everything because they chose the "wrong" investment portfolio. I think we have seen how well that can be managed by ordinary people and their investments huh. Sure.. I trust you to manage your money... well except when you get swindled out of it all by those who are too big to fail. We just saw the end game of those on Wall Street who can transfer the wealth of Main Street over to Wall Street on a scale never seen before. Who are YOU going to turn to when your investments don't quite pan out as you thought they would??? Is the New Social Security that you on the extreme right propose going to come with a handgun to use as your own private death panel the next time Wall Street and the large banks decide to bleed the system of all value again and millions of Americans have nothing to fall back on??? Hey folks... good luck in Divot and Jerrys Dog World I'd much rather have a private system (even a mandated one) that I controlled where the contributions went than a government mandated and controlled system that has no real money and now pays out by cashing in IOUs. I'm not counting on getting a dime of Social Security and think most younger people should expect the same. As for the "too big to fail": I think my position on bailouts, subsidies, and handouts is pretty obvious. NO to all!!! Those IOUs are working out pretty good for me but I've been making them good since 1960. I weep for the future though. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  2. Very sorry for your loss, its always real tough to loose a pet. There's another one out there waiting for you that needs you as much as you need it, get busy.
  3. You just described Garden City, KS. Drove through there last June and decided then and there to "turn" vegetarian. Don't miss dead animal flesh at all but don't try to convert anybody to the "good, pure, healthy and decent side" either. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.

  5. Yeah, but it's different this time - now they have NUKES. It'll be interesting to see what Obama's response is going to be... Well, its been said that FDR got the US involved in WWII to get us out of the Great Depression. Maybe this is the beginning of the recovery from the Great Recession.

  6. SPAM!!! The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  7. Standing at the corner of Industrial Blvd. and I-35 in Dallas to watch the Presidential procession go by. Well, they went by but at a high rate of speed heading to Parkland Hospital. Nobody in the crowd knew what was going on but some thought they were pissed off at the "tomatoes" that had been thrown at the car and were heading to Love Field to leave the city. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  8. Most of mine have had a waiting period and these days would expect that to be the norm. Whatever the case, that was a pretty stupid thing for any politician to say considering the times. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  9. Being a resident of the state he clains to represent I'll agree with that hypocrite thing, that self serving asshole couldn't find Kentucky with a GPS anymore. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  10. In the event of a tornado in the DFW area please head to Cowboy stadium, there's very little chance of a touchdown there. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  11. They did? Matt Well, that's what they told us? You mean........wait......oh shit. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  12. What's the big sweat, everything's gonna be OK now that the Tea Party has come to the rescue. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  13. Just as a clarification the OP was complaining about negative advertising in campaign advertizing and said nothing about the outcomes of the elections... but sadly that won't go away either... we just won't have to see the advertisments for a little while... Right you are and regarding the OP, I would like to think a multitude of supreme beings that the mid term election is history. As of yesterday my landline was plugged back in for the first time in seven days. "Hello, this is Pat Boone, yes Pat Boone the old singer, singing the praises of Ron Paul blah, blah, blah.... The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  14. The sky will still be blue, the grass will still be green and Washington DC will remnain corrupt. Don't get your hopes up over this latest "landslide mandate of the righteous pissed off". Seen it too often before. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  15. Yep I did and Yosemite Sam has been defeated...........again. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  16. so how do we categorize the ones that don't even bother to vote? Realists. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  17. Culture shock hits Washington D.C. 3 Nov 10, when they wake up. Culture shock?? I don't think so. Boith sides are the same old shit sandwich and the only thing your vote does is decide if its served on white or wheat bread. I am an idealist, a romantic and an optimist. I voted for the new candidates, expressing conservatism and free market capitalism. The pendulum never stops swinging; now is the time to give it a hard push to the right. WTF, why does it have to be a hard push either way, where's that ever gotten us??? Can't we all pull our heads out and get it back to the center........where it belongs? The older I get the less I care who I piss off.

  19. Why did Alaska recriminalize pot? it was a 16-2 vote. What failed? Hey, they elected Sarah Palin, go figure. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  20. Ok, so take more instead of spending less is your answer No my suggestion is to go after the bastards that caused the problems that we're all facing and paying for (through no fault of our own) .. Whilst they sit on their smug backsides and continue to receive greed bonuses. We are taking care of those bastards But they are not in banks (for the most part) the bastards that need taken care of are in the halls of our congress Tuesday will be a good start. And then we will have to keep a close eye on the news ones going there "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss". The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  21. Bring plenty of beer, its in a dry county. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.

  23. There's not a forum on the internet more in need of an "eye rolling" icon than Speakers Corner, jeez. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  24. Locks were made to keep honest people out. The older I get the less I care who I piss off.
  25. Well I can't speak to the piano; I've never seen that in any hospital I've ever been in. YMMV. I have seen a few fountains outside of hospitals. A certain amount of decorative flourish isn't completely out of line. I've never seen any gold plated bed pans, but that may be an option for some of the extreme higher end ones that cater to optional things like liposuction or breast augmentations where money isn't really an issue anyway. Starbucks and Subway are franchises though and to be honest fairly reasonable ones as far as comfort and reliability in knowing what you're getting as opposed to the mystery of hitting up a random institutional cafeteria. They are clearly paying their own way, making a profit and have nothing to do (directly) with healthcare costs. In fact, they -might- even be lowering it since they might not actually be part of the hospital and might be paying rent for the square footage. The hospital where my brother in law's kid was born had all that and more. Dinner for the new mom and dad consisted of steak and lobster each night and the hospital itself was comparable to the finest resorts than can be found anywhere. In the lobby there was available at all times all the finest espresso coffee drinks you could guzzle down and pastries fit for a king all at no cost and all paid for, ultimately I guess, by his insurance company.
