Come on Kap, I know Lincoln was a Republican Women in the United States Senate Female State Governors

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 08:48 PM) If/when Hillary is the dem nominee....I'd be mighty tempted not to vote for anyone. It would depend on who the GOP nominee is. Obviously if is McCain, I'm voting for McCain. But I would vote for Hillary against several of the other candidates on the GOP side.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 09:45 PM) The difference is the Democrats are the ones that run around saying that they are the "party of inclusion". And the GOP doesn't even pretend to include. Gotcha It was all those blacks, women, and gay candidates in the GOP that momentarily blinded me. Sorry.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 08:53 PM) I lock the bathroom door every time. Even if I am home alone. Obviously you've seen Fast Times at Ridgemount High.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 04:53 PM) And ya'll Democrats can't STAND Zell Miller. It amazes me how the party of inclusion will knock your ass off if you don't fall right in line with the liberal way of thinking. You are amazed that to be included with Democrates you have to be liberal? Would you also be amazed to learn to be a Republican you have to be conservative? Come on Kap, that shot just isn't fair. Each party has a set of beliefs and if you aren't in line with a majoriuty of them, you aren't really a member of that party.

QUOTE(Kenny Hates Prospects @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 03:43 PM) It'll be a sad day when our organization would rather toss a truckload of money at a veteran in the last year of his contract who is coming off major back surgery than play a stud prospect with 40HR potential. Actually, nevermind. Any chance we can send Quentin to Triple A and sign Erstad to play the OF in his place? That would be a good move. He plays good D when he's working. Prospects and Potential, The New MLB!

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 04:01 PM) What is this "9th Inning" you speak of???? I hear the White Sox have some pitcher named Jenks - why don't they ever use him???

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 02:32 PM) It makes me ill. There is no way in hell I will vote for Billary. The Dems thank you for your support of their positions and vision for America.

I'd give my right hand to be ambidextrous.

I always thought the news reflected the attitudes of the people and what is happening. People get excited and start talking about a candidate and the news reflects that. A candidate moving up in the polls is news. A guy dropping down is news. perhaps they should have ignored Huckabee and what he was doing.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 02:14 PM) Not.gonna.happen. Why? Because it's working. You all know I said Obama would get chewed up and spit out of the Clinton machine. Guess what? It's happening. Hardcore. The Clintons will not lose, or they will take EVERYONE down with them. Everyone knows it, including Obama himself. Easy lesson to learn from Bush knocking out McCain in 2000. Same scenario, ex-President with a family member running. Same stuff.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 11:39 AM) I am a huge Joe Crede fan, but given Feild's potential and the money differential for the next few years, Josh Fields makes more sense than Joe Crede. yep, cheap with potential. Think of the marketing These guys are Cheap! They *may* be All-Stars ~~ Stay Tuned! You Want All-Stars? Buy a Pair of Converse! It's going to be a great day in baseball when nobody will sign a develped player. It will be a bunch of AAAA guys running around.

This thread depressed me. Not looking forward to the season at all.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 12:57 PM) Fish suck. Cleaning tanks suck. Never again.

No matter what system we have, there will be many people making certain all the money is paid to the federal government. Someone will have to analyze companies books to be certain they have paid all taxes due. Imagine now the mom and pop stores that will have 30X the amount of taxes to pay. And without one check and balance of individuals submitting their returns, what check would be in place that every business accurately reported their sales.

Sometimes not making a trade is the best trade. Personally, I'd like to see Crede resigned. I would not mind the IF corners covered for the next three seasons with Crede and Konerko.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 09:38 AM) and they are making it happen. How?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 19, 2008 -> 05:56 PM) Duncan Hunter is officially dropping out. The only purpose this serves is to pad my post count. Who is Duncan Hunter? ditto

These sorts of projects and classes are a b**** for the marginal students, and usually not to bad for students with some organizational and study skills. Rarely have a heard of one that was a huge leap from what was expected in other classes alkong with the way. It was a tying together and a logical next step. I also think it catches some people off guard who may have though they would be coasting their last semester. You got to wait until the diploma is in hand to exhale.

QUOTE(Disco72 @ Jan 20, 2008 -> 09:37 AM) The best thing you can do is have a solid strategy to start out and make minor adjustments rather than get halfway through and realize your strategy sucks. Too bad Ozzie and K-Dub didn't realize that last season

I can't put away a basketball without making the last shot, even if it's just a simple 360 roundhouse slam from the freethrow line, or a layup

Tough Love vs.. Spanking Most of America' s population thinks it' s improper to spank children, so I have tried other methods to control my kids when they have one of "thos e moments." One that I found effective is for me to just take the child for a car ride and talk. They usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our car ride together. I've included a photo below of one of my sessions with my son, in case you would like to use the technique. Sincerely,

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 18, 2008 -> 02:26 PM) There's them damn entitlements rearing their ugly heads again. Yep, the single biggest problem, bigger than illegal immigrants. I'm not talking about the investment kind of stuff like student financial aid, but the feed someone for a day kind of stuff. No easy answers, but continuing on the path we have found ourselves is not working. Unless we just consider it economic recovery, pumping more money into the economy. Then I guess it doesn't matter what it is spent on as long as it is spent.

I have more respect for someone who slips into this country, illegally, and works hard to provide for his family and does not break any other laws than someone who legally sits on his ass and waits for the government check to arrive. I believe that working hard is closer to the American way than legally collecting a public aid check.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 18, 2008 -> 02:15 PM) Doesn't eliminating mistakes lead to successes? Usually. The point is not many people will stop and ask themselves why someting went right. They will assume it is because they are bigger, faster, stronger, smarter, etc. And that may be it. But duplicating your success is a powerful thing. Improving on success, as Kap just mentioned, can be so powerful.
