  • Remember the one about the elephant ear sandwich, where the prison officials could find the elephant ear, but not the BIG BUN??
  • Wait for it to load, it takes a few minutes the first time. Turn up the volume.
  • Oh nooooooooo. I just looked and had some messages, since June of 2004 and didn't know. I guess this proves Don's point about Democrats.
  • I suppose you're right. My toaster is pre-ERISA, but I'd rather make toast with a cigarette lighter than go to Wal-Mart.
  • I don't know if you're seeking real answers, but if you only want one piece of toast, only one side works. That's the one labeled "one slice". Try the other side with only one piece of bread, it won't work.
  • I think it's part of a person's character, and partly acquired by how you are brought up. I would attribute Catholic schools - focusing on personal accountability and responsibility; native intelligence; how much you read; it is so many things t…
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 12-08-04 AT 10:05PM (CST)[/font][br][br]The jury appeared to be undecided, or hung after some time. Then, two jurors were dismissed, including the doctor/lawyer foreman. Then, very shortly after return…
  • I didn't watch it, but it was on the news this morning and they played the audio of Anna Nicole. She was presenting an award and sounded like she was totally drunk, or stoned and was very attention-grabbing about her body and how beautiful she is.…
  • I was thinking that maybe if we could analyze this incredible division in our country today, maybe it WOULD be possible to heal it and work together somehow. When and how did this evolve? I don't really think it existed during the Clinton administ…
  • Fifty percent is not a landslide for an incumbent. It means that the other fifty percent of American voters did not vote for him. We already have many entitlements for people who have children that they cannot afford to support, i.e., food stamps,…
  • Here we have: Early voting - since about last week. WHY?? They say in case we have bad weather!! Not terribly likely in early November. Provisional voting - go ahead and vote without registration, and we'll sort it out later. Okaaay! Felons r…
  • Whirlwind, I think you're absolutely right. It seems as if we feel the need to make arguments about other things in the past because we really don't have enough information about the REAL things, like what is really going on in Iraq and what is to …
  • Looks like Don had as much evidence of Kerry's discharge as I had about Bush's girlfriend and her abortion! Let's hope that rights of free speech, freedom of the press and civil rights will endure for us all. But I am worried.
  • Lest it be forgotten, millions of people were against the Vietnam war. The opposition grew exponentially for several years, until the government had no choice but to pull out. John Kerry was only one of many who spoke out against a war which then …
  • Umm, I guess the first paragraph of my post didn't go through!
  • Umm, I guess the first paragraph of my post didn't go through.
  • Somehow, none of the debate matters as much as the knowledge we have of the events of the last three years,what has been said and done. I thought that both candidates performed well, albeit rehearsed and practiced, but Bush had some facial express…
  • Oh Don, I was a college freshman at the University of Hawaii and at a sit-in against the war in Vietnam, a peaceful one. 1968 was Bobby Kennedy being murdered and also Martin Luther King. So, the democratic convention rather paled in my memory. T…
  • Thank you for all your great responses. I was having trouble logging on. I feel better now hearing that people have actually come home from Mali! I like the "just say no", would that that would work!I have read numerous journals from PCVs in many…
  • Ok, Larry, I used my mom's Corvair, and it was fine, I'm still here to post. I admire Nader, but there's no chance, so we won't get what we want with that. Would have to say ABB at this point; there are too many things that aren't right with this…
  • This discussion is incredibly interesting. I hear that marriage is only for the purpose of procreation. So, men with vasectomies and women with hysterectomies cannot marry. Infertile heterosexual people cannot marry. Women past the age of childb…
  • I'll take a shot at two of them. The "one slice" on the toaster means that if you're just going to toast one piece of bread, it has to go into a certain slot, or it doesn't work, at least that's how mine works. The old men and pants: I think that…
  • Rad, they probably would think you were going to knit an afgan.
  • HRSAGE, are you in Whittier?
  • How about "Earth Girls are Easy"?
  • Monday night's Italian night... oh no. Is there support group or a 12-step program for this addiction to this forum?
  • Commander's Palace in the 'District...not too far from the quarter. It's wonderful and not too touristy; Antoines if you're feeling humble. Some of the "famous" places are awful.
  • COBRA participants are to be treated like any similarly situated active employees. They are entitled to open enrollment opportunities.
  • The employer contribution wouldn't be taxed, just as any traditional spouse employer contribution wouldn't be taxed. The only taxable event with health and welfare benefits I know of is the imputed income with certain amounts of employer-paid life …
  • >I agree with Irene but I specify this on our >Termination checklist. Stating COBRA not offered >due to not enrollment in health benefits. >The ex-ee signs off on this at time of >departure. That's a good idea.
