Great, "1st amendment issues" That means it will never happen now... My new policy isn't to hang up on telemarketers because then they just call someone else who might be interested in whatever they are selling. So now I just put them on hold, and leave them there...

Astros lead 4-1 after the top of the 8th. 3 more outs and Houston wins...

Sox have the first two guys on, in the 9th inning.

Man what guts by Casey!

4-1 Astros, Ensburg with another HR!!!

MY pick as the MVP...

Damn if it was Sosa, he would have done the hop

:fthecubs :fthecubs :fthecubs :fthecubs :fthecubs :fthecubs :fthecubs :fthecubs :fthecubs Cork this :fyou

Yeah, no ones talking about the Sox game. Kinda sad, isn't it? Anything but the Sox game thread? Well at least Adkins isn't pitching too badly...

Morgan Ensberg HR's. 3-1 Stros.

He advanced on the Error. The ball went into the camera well so they gave him 2nd base.

Heck I could post here during the game and still be more into the game than Jerry was...

Why not me?

What's happening in the Sox game??

Great thanks for the "work" Jas

:fthecubs for Casey at the Bat.

And the Stros lead 1-0 at Mil after 3 innings of play.

Wow it took about 5 minutes of watching that train wreck to turn it. Gee do you think now that Manuel is a dead duck that the team is sending a message?

Glad to see Sammy Sosa can make clear what the rest of us have tried to tell you for years

Actually I just got done reading a great article about slavery in the modern world. (the Sept 03 National Geographic edition, it is a must read) Brazil was mentioned as having slave kids to cut and slash rain forests in order to supply charcoal to the government subsidized steel industry. Steel is the big industry right off of the top of my head because where I live the whole industry has collapsed due to American wages being too high, while many foreign gov's have subsidized steel industries to dump onto the American economy. And the US needs the rest of the world just as much as they need us. In this day and age of US consumerism this country has overpriced its labor in relation to what it expects to pay for products. The net result is the need to export materials in order to find someone to build products cheap enough for American consumers to want to mass consume them. There are good and bad things that come with investment and trade in other countries. You don't have a country importing cheaper good without people losing their jobs because of it. The alternative is for that country to not import it, but have to have consumers pay higher prices, and have more of their income not be able to be spent on other things. And you are an econ major right? If you are there is a little nitpicking I am going to do. You don't "create" investments. Investments are used to create other stuff.

He wouldn't have been able to contact them except through EBay. It is mostly the idiots fault for giving out personal info though.

Being liked doesn't make you an effective manager...

Ebay allowed him access to the idiots...
