CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE BEER DRINKER ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel shamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver." ~ Jack Handy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day. " ~Frank Sinatra ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading." ~ Henny Youngman ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think ! not." ~ Stephen Wright ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we commit no sin, we go to heaven. Sooooo, let's all get drunk and go to heaven!" ~ Brian O'Rourke ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." ~ Benjamin Franklin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza." ~ Dave Barry ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BEER: HELPING UGLY PEOPLE HAVE SEX SINCE 3000 B.C.!!! ~ "Unknown" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Remember "I"! before "E", except in Budweiser. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To some it's a six-pack, to me it's a Support Group. Salvation in a can! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And saving the best for! last, as explained by Cliff Clavin, of Cheers. One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff was explaining the Buffalo Theory to his buddy Norm. Here's how it went: "Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. ! That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

I'm not a casual fan. Why should I have to pay more to go on Opening Day when it's cold and raining and s***ty. I waited it out last year and stayed the entire game. I should be rewarded not punished.

Busted

Nerd!

Yeah, but cwsox says GW is the only one that flip flops.

There's your answer. There are NEW employees that were unemployed previously and were scheduled to pay $0 and are now paying $2000 or even $3000 to "make up" for your $1000.

I'm not explaining real well. Maybe SS2K4 can. I see he's looking at this right now. Try this, though: Supply-Side

You have to think bigger. Not just one employer, buy 1000s and there are other factors, like decreased spending in Washington. Created business that were never paying taxes in the first place, the tax on the wages of the emloyees, the increased revenue for the restaurant owner because of more people eating out and wanting to see her newly renovated business, the increased property tax on the restaurant because it is now worth more.

That happens Waaaaay too often.

No, because the Goverment will buy it from a supplier and pay way too much for it. Ever seen the govt walking through Jewel? When people have more money there is also less need for the govt to feed the needy. Charity contributions go up, not just because of less taxes, but because someone that wasn't working now is and is able to now help out people that are in the same boat he used to be in.

Also, More people are inclined to begin new businesses which are taxed and hire employees which pay taxes, etc, etc, etc.

She may build a bigger kitchen because she will have MORE customers because more people can go out to eat with more money in their pocket. She may hire two or three more people, instead of the one in your example.

I know what I want to say, but I don't know how to put it in words. I found this, though:

Welcome to the boards! Go Granny go!

George Steinbrenner is going to read this post thinking.."I thought I already did that."

I'm not saying that he shouldn't be aloud to raise his prices. Now, THAT would be Democratic

Easy. Manuel. I never had anything against him and was against his firing. P.S. I resent the flip-flop remark, considering I can't wear them on account I only have one big toe.

Yeah, I think you're right.

4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! 4 More Years! John Kerry = Michael Dukakis...Get used to THAT!

Not since all these new miracle drugs! Sorry. I had to.

" They all Flip-Flop. I just thought this was a particularly funny one considering they were 9 days apart.

Yikes. I hope she recovers well. I'll pray for her.
