Make sure you're on the board for the homeowners association. Those governing documents for ownership are really crucial and should be reviewed by a good attorney prior to purchasing.

Griffey is back on the Mariners, and got his 8th opening game homerun - so much for the pundits who said he was all washed up :P

The one thing I've never seen in any of the reports is exactly when these bonuses were paid. Was it at the end of the year which is usually when those things happen? Or just now. Anybody know?

I love the IQ tests that come in the form of emails. These are my two favorites: 1) You can give your credit card information to a falsified email address to buy dangerous drugs which are available legally by prescription only, and then you put those drugs in your mouth and swallow them. and 2) You give your credit card and personal information to a falsified email address to buy a fake diploma so you can lie on employment applications. Isn't it just amazin' B)

I wonder why I'm not surprised.

I asked friends in Alaska how she got elected since she appears to be lights on - nobody home. They all say the same thing. She was running against Murkowsky in the primary and he was SUCH a horrible governor that she beat him! And then, because Alaska tends to vote Republican without any undue thinking being involved, the day after the general election they were all looking at each other and saying "Huh???" :P

The only reason to have children is to brain wash them. Can't imagine why you'd want to have them otherwise B)

What are the best settings for GIB on BBO?

The slower the speed for thinking and play, the stronger the GIB play. I like to set it fast because I have a short attention span :blink: -
Be sure to buy a good umbrella :)

Old fantasy series, which is fabulous if you can find it as it is out of print: E.R. Eddison, a contemporary of Tolkein, wrote the "Zimiavian Trilogy" which consists of: Mistress of Mistresses Fish Dinner in Memison The Mezentian Gate - this one is unfinished but published anyway, and you can see how this type of story is constructed - fantastic! C.S.Lewis has a recommendation on the back of the books which reads as follows: "a new literary species, a new rhetoric, a new climate of the imagination... These books are works, first and foremost, of art. And they are irreplaceable." He also wrote "The Worm Ouroboros." These are the best fantasy books I've ever read. Eddison was into classic Greek mythology and wove it into these works. He has a richness of detail that's amazing.

The preamble to the US Constitution was rewritten about six years ago: We the Corporations of the United States, in order to form a more perfect profit, establish price fixing, insure domestic fear as a control devide, provide for defense contractors, promote the welfare of the upper five percent income bracket earners, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our shareholders at the expense of the economy as a whole, do ordain and re-establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
