I've had the Mountain Hardware windstopper fleece jacket for 3+ years, and it is awesome. I use it far and away more than any other piece of gear I own (it's getting kinda nappy). _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

One recent discovery that proved to be lots of fun is honey. A little goes a long way.

I'm thinkin' I'd like to try a Sugar Momma on for size. My most recent SO's have been the smart, cool, and broke type. I'd like someone to take me to the Caribbean for once. _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

Yes, and given the circumstances, he may want to rethink doing that in the future if he wants to reduce his chances for additional scrutiny. _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

Old people tend to give pretty good advice. This old fella once gave me a simple recipe for living and retiring comfortably. 1. Get a decent job with a good retirement pension. 2. Fully fund your 401K (or similar). 3. Have your house paid off before retirement. 4. Set aside a little extra for investment in stocks. 5. Don't use credit. I know I don't have the discipline to do it all on my own, so I make it as "automatic" as possible. I don't even own a credit card, and everything else comes out of my check before I see it. I just hope the interest rates go up by the time I retire, cause I'll need several million to maintain my standard of living. _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

Then if you consider yourself a Liberal, you identify with option A in the poll, yes? _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

There is no doubt about that, and I never knew it until recently. I have this cologne that, for whatever reason, reacts with my body chemistry in freaky ways. I have had incredible reactions from females while wearing it that I know I would not have gotten otherwise. I was even approached by a guy who asked me about it (that was weird). Who knew?!? _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

Well then you're a freaky1 Socialist and the poll does'nt apply to you. _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

Sure they do, for example: "By their fruits ye shall know them." That phrase is somewhere in the Bible, but it's probably more usefull outside the biblical domain as "Actions speak louder than words". _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

That's exactly what I am trying to define with my poll, whether or not todays Liberal (within the skydiving community at least) truly identifies with the classical definition of Liberalism or the present-day, US version of Liberalism. I would imagine the founders of Liberal Thinking would not recognize todays Liberal. _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

That's kind of what I was trying to get at; whether or not folks identify with the original intent and definition of Liberalism. The definition of Liberalism and the real-world policies that are thought to be liberal seem to be, to me, worlds apart. _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

Ok, I'm stumped...how can I edit the poll to display correctly?? _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

I'll try. _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

With the exception of slavery, prohibition of alcohol and marijuana are probably the best illustrations of moronic public policy this nation has ever produced. _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

Which version of Liberalism do you more closely identify yourself with? EDIT: Well, I can't edit the poll, but I think this is how I wrote it: A= Classical Liberalism: old school; primary importance of the individual being unencumbered by the power of the state; the importance of the individual, and their freedom; life, liberty and property; property is a more compelling natural right than the right to participate in collective decision making; rejection of the “tyranny of the majority”. B= Present Day Liberalism: modern; argues for government regulation and partial intervention in economy; society has a responsibility to guarantee equal opportunity for each of its citizens; international institutions, such as the United Nations, are an implicit part of creating world peace and order; financial aid to poorer citizens. _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.

I heard someone described the other day as being "compassionately conservative". May be you could start the Liberally Compassionate Conservativism Movement! _________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.
