Wouldn't need that intermediate step - just say it's potato vodka.

If I had confidence the program was going to continue long-term (at least a year), I would be all over the Fidelity Retirement card I mentioned yesterday.

It was a suggestion - I think she would agree that a beverage one can light with a match is better for ingestion.

John Stewart spent a segment putting CNN through the ringer. Lack of fact checking or when they do they use SNL for it. The the use of "We'll have to leave it there" before they go to commercial when they have 24 hours so they shouldn't have to leave it there. And for a good debate get two crazy bold guys, on from the left and one from the right to go at it, so they can leave it there and go to some cute YouTube video.

I like his line about the ranges of the numbers that get thrown around. "Well I weigh between 150 lbs and 300 lbs which is normal for a man of my height between 6 and 12 feet tall"

He's now dealing with DHS an is waiting for DHS to become competant enough to execute al off the conspiracy theories of all they stuff they are accused of doing.

I think many of us feel most conspiracy theories are bunk because our government simply couldn't manage to pull them off.

Not a Jets or Dolphins fan but didn't agree with that pass interference call.

This is why. It is always easier to raise taxes on people who don't vote for you. It is the same reason why property taxes are higher in Florida for second homes.

I'm very near paying off the Discover card that I used for a balance transfer...even at 1% cashback, maxing it out and then paying it off via coins is a sweet deal.

Even most conspiracies that do not involve governments are exceedingly hard to keep quiet.
