  1. How would you solve the following: Would grocery food items be taxed? Prepared food? Prescriptions? Would houses, cars and everything be taxed at the same rate? How would you help the small business owner who becomes an already bigger tax collector than he was before? I really dislike having to collect taxes for every town I may do work in. I have to know the tax rate in dozens of different localities.
  2. I may sneak a peek at what the Texas teams are doing. And OSU in the final 4. But for the most part it's baseball season. I'm trying to decide on my cable tv package or MLB-tv on broadband. Since I've networked my house and can take my lap top anywhere, I may just do the mlb thing.

    s*** I thought you came down to visit me. I'm heading back to South Padre Island to do a little work tomorrow. God I love my job.
  4. By nationwide popular vote. As it stands now, Kerry has no reason to visit Texas. He has zero shot of winning the state. Make the candidates campaign in all 50 states. The bigger states will still garner the most attention. The candidates basically divide up the states into three columns. Those they will win easily, those they will lose no matter what. and the battleground states. Those battleground states get all the attention from both candidates, gather in all the favors for the winning side. Don't think Daley wasn't reminding the Kennedy White House weekly about his "get out the vote" efforts on behalf of Kennedy. We no longer have a worry about a few rogue states leaving the union.
  5. It's a 3-2 count with runners on 1st and 2nd and one out. The hitter is a good fast ball, poor breaking ball hitter. Your breaking ball isn't working well that day. You do not want to throw a ball and load the basis. My question. How do you make eye contact with that blond babe down the third base line and have her meet you after the game?

    A War Story A squad of American soldiers was patrolling along the Iraqi border. To their surprise, they found the badly mangled dead body of an Iraqi soldier in a ditch along side the road. A short distance up the road, they found a badly mangled American soldier in a ditch on the other side of the road, which was still barely alive. They ran to him, cradled his blood-covered head and asked him what had happened. "Well," he whispered, "I was walking down this road, armed to the teeth. I came across this heavily armed Iraqi border guard. I looked him right in the eye and shouted, "Sadam Hussein is a corrupt, cheating, lying piece of crap!" He looked me right in the eye and shouted back, "Bill Clinton, Tom Daschle, Ted Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, and and most of the rest of your Democrats are corrupt, cheating, lying pieces of crap too!" "We were standing there shaking hands when this truck hit us."

    My son just returned from a HS orchestra trip to Dallas. One of the guys on the trip turned him on to a couple really cool bands he thought I would like. Ramones and Clash I had to pull out some cassettes. Damn I wish I had a better tape deck. Damn kids think they invented rock and roll The king called up his jet fighters He said you better earn your pay Drop your bombs between the minarets Down the casbah way As soon as the shareef was Chauffeured outta there The jet pilots tuned to The cockpit radio blare As soon as the shareef was Outta their hair The jet pilots wailed

    Was it a rematch when the Germans bombed pearl harbor . . .

  10. I believe Aboz was our last poster in camp. Or do you mean players?
  11. I feel for the guy. The difference between MLB and AAA is razor sharp. There are probably a couple rotations he could have played in.
  12. 9th in the A.L.!? Yeah about right, but for the wrong reasons.
  13. As we explained to Neil Young, Southern man don't need him around anyhow . . . If you wanna see heaven, brother, here’s you chance I’ve been sent to spread the message God blessed Texas.
  14. Gee, you mean you do not trust our list members?
  15. Can SL&P host this? I'm certain we all are interested in his opinion about Israel, Hot Chicks, WMD, Gay players, 9/11, photoshopped pics of Kerry, MLB vid games, . . .
  16. b**** Taunting me will you?! This makes up for all of my "it's 80 and sunny while you shovel snow" jokes Wish I was could be there.
  17. Don't talk to me about oil. I just paid $1.51 for unleaded
  18. Once baseball season begins for real, I will not even think about those losers until it's time for them to take their deservingly high draft picks. ANyone going to pay any attention to them, besides the Tribune, when the Sox are rocking the season?
  19. Just like a right winger, resorting to violence

    Ask him about the time the Cubs won a World Series, he was a teenager

    Hey that's unfair and you have gone over the line. The ASPCA is going to here about this one mister.
  22. I question the objectivity of this site. But, what do you know about Joe Scarborough and a dead aide? Link
  23. Damn, I just might be
  24. Texsox replied to southsider2k5's topic in SLaM
    LOL, Shazam. How about that picture of W in unform? Oops he wasn't there that day.
  25. Enjoy your responses I would make a couple changes to the Executive Branch. I would set the presidential term at 6 years without possibility of serving two consecutive terms. I would eliminate the restriction on a state electing a Pres and VP from their state. For example, Dick had to change his residence from Texas to run as VP or else the great state of Texas would not have been able to elect them. I would eliminate the electoral college.
