Jermaine Dye or Aaron Rowand?
QUOTE(WHITESOXRANDY @ Aug 14, 2007 -> 11:04 AM) If the Sox can't afford 2 Major League outfielders, they should be contracted. LOL There is some truth to that.

Catch-All Anything Thread
QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 13, 2007 -> 04:13 PM) You went to Texas in August...? Willingly? If so, you're the crazy one. I can't help where my work sends me.

What is the deal with Texans? Are you from outer space or half lizard? My skin almost melted off as I dropped off my rental car at DFW.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 13, 2007 -> 03:08 PM) Yeah, because we don't know that already, bacon boy. Did the 20' x 45' "Kucinich 2008" banner on the side of my condo give it away?

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 13, 2007 -> 02:35 PM) Yea... would it be better to do a compare/contrast or just a straight "impressions" of a Dem site and a GOP site a week (with the stances they are taking...). At least this way, maybe we can all really read up on the stances of folks (unless they don't stand for anything, like Obama... ) I'd be all for it. Then everyone will know how much I love Kucinich.

Karl Rove to resign

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Aug 13, 2007 -> 10:24 AM) This alone would put me out of business. It is not the job of business to provide insurance to its employees. It is a bebefit, offered by some, to try and obtain the better employees. Why is it some kind of f***ing obligation that businesses need to provide, or pay, for this? Get out of my wallet. Perhaps you didn't read the last statement you quoted: Small employers that meet certain revenue thresholds will be exempt.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 13, 2007 -> 10:19 AM) So? What does it say? Seriously, I could have wrote the same s***, if my inclanation was to set up a governmental entity for health care. It's NOT anything new, innovative, different, or anything that should set him apart as a leader of our country. Everyone blah blah blah blah blah... whatever. It's not anything that differentiates him from any other candidate. I highly doubt you actually read his plan on all the key issues on his website like you claim you did. He actually has original ideas in there even though, according to you, he has no stance on anything at all.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 13, 2007 -> 10:04 AM) For the record, I NEVER watch Fox. Second, seriously, he doesn't have any substance at all. I've read his website. He doesn't stand for anything, and that's by design, which makes it stink even more. I really find that hard to believe. I don't recall him stating "I stand for nothing".

Karl Rove to resign
QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 13, 2007 -> 09:42 AM) Karl Rove = Ozzie Guillen. Karl Rove = Overrated. I don't agree that he is/was a genius. He played a big part of shaping the country's discourse after 9/11, when Bush had an unheard of 91% approval rating. Bush is now at 28%. What a disaster this administration has become.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 13, 2007 -> 10:00 AM) Obama... this man just likes to hear himself talk, and he has ZERO substance to him. New attitude? Fine. But he's not a president. Not sure why all the hatred for him. Perhaps you should try listening to him to see what he is offering up. And I don't mean reading about him on foxnews.com.

Karl Rove to resign
QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 13, 2007 -> 07:30 AM) I'm sure this is a "shallow" victory to you Democrats out there. I've already seen one blog that said the only reason this is happening is for him to avoid some sort of trial. OH THE CONSPIRACY! OH OH OHHHHH... He's gone. Now let it go. You're the one ranting and raving so I'm not sure who you're telling to "let it go".

New help putting together a list
QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Aug 10, 2007 -> 02:38 PM) That was the one I was originally thinking of. I'm not the one planning it, but the guy who is has never done it before. we're getting two topless waitresses for $75 an hour each, but I don't know what they'll do nor do I know anything about the music. So I'm taking the safe route by bringing my Ipod and looking for another stripper that isn't advertised as "topless waitress." I hope your guy did his homework. I hired 2 topless waitresses for a bachelor party and they did exactly that....waited on us while being topless. They went around and gave guys beers and cocktails. I also hired a couple of actual strippers who performed a show.

Music Thread
QUOTE(Felix @ Aug 9, 2007 -> 03:45 PM) Anyone listen to the Raconteurs? I've been listening to them a lot lately, and I must say, they're pretty damn good. They've got a classic feel (sort of like Led Zeppelin), but also mix in a new, indie rock taste. I'm not really one for indie rock bands, but they do a pretty good job of blending the two, and are a good listen. Plus, they've convinced me that Jack White is a musical genius. I still listen to their album. I tend to play various genres on shuffle. Good album.

White Sox vs. Indians, 8/09/07 (L)
Everything points to the Sox winning easily but for some reason I feel uneasy about this one.
