  1. It's Visa. They seemed pretty good as of yesterday. Basically we've paid for some items that we have not received and those items that we have received, are substantially sub-par. I've never done this in the 15 or so years I have a credit card. I only did it, so the merchant would take us seriously in our efforts to get a partial credit on what was paid.
  2. Im curious to see if anyone has ever put a charge into dispute or a stop payment on a credit card charge? How did it end up? My wife and I just did this for the first time with a difficult situation with a photographer.
  3. QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Apr 9, 2012 -> 12:22 PM) Picking a conservative woman does not win you the women's vote. There's nothing that liberal and left-leaning moderate women hate more than conservative women. i agree with that, see Sarah Palin. However, as much as they say Obama's got an enthusiasm drop-off, I still think its higher than Romney's. No one is horribly excited about Mitt Romney. Maybe having the 1st female, 1st hispanic, Vice President may change that enthusiasm for 5-10% of the population, enough to win.
  4. he's going to pick the governor of New Mexico. 1. He needs help with women. 2. He needs help with Latinos 3. Will try and make New Mexico into a swing state
  5. is it just me, or does it seem like Konerko has a bad attitude in this article???
  6. bigger question is, what the heck is Ozzie doing at a Depaul basketball game?
  7. Does anyone know if there is still a garage sale at Sox Fest?
  8. Also.. why does the Robin Ventura hiring, remind me so much of the Bill Cartwright hiring?
  9. Wouldn't you truly have to say... Buehrle - Sale Santos - Reed Quentin - Viciedo Sale- ? If Sale replaces Buehrle, who replaces Sale?
  10. little known Eric Stults nugget. On June 25, 2008, Stults pitched his first Major League shutout, as well as complete game — as the Dodgers blanked the visiting Chicago White Sox 5-0.
  11. Seems like a slow moving free agent market. Does Kenny wait till mid feb swoop in and grab some cheap veteran arms? Right-handed relievers David Aardsma (29) Jeremy Accardo (30) Luis Ayala (34) Danys Baez (34) Miguel Batista (41) Taylor Buchholz (30) Shawn Camp (36) - Type B, no arbitration offer Todd Coffey (31) Juan Cruz (31) Chad Durbin (34) Aaron Heilman (33) Clay Hensley (32) Jason Isringhausen (39) Brad Lidge (35) - Type B, no arbitration offer Scott Linebrink (35) Pat Neshek (31) Ramon Ortiz (39) Micah Owings (29) Vicente Padilla (34) Tony Pena (30) Chad Qualls (33) Dan Wheeler (34) - Type B, offered arbitration Kerry Wood (35) - Type B, no arbitration offer Jamey Wright (37) Michael Wuertz (33) Joel Zumaya (27) Left-handed relievers Rich Hill (32) Mike Gonzalez (34) Damaso Marte (37) Trever Miller (39) Arthur Rhodes (41) - Type B, no arbitration offer Doug Slaten (32) Brian Tallet (34)

  13. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 2, 2012 -> 08:51 PM) And MrG can find examples of Obama printing up trillions of dollars. i think some people really think he runs over to the federal reserve/us mint and starts the presses himself.
  14. Paul won't run as an independent. The retribution to his son would be severe.
  15. So as of now, I'm guessing this is the 2012 lineup? 1. DeAza-LF 2. Ramirez-SS 3. Konerko-1B 4. Dunn-DH 5. Viciedo-RF 6. Rios-CF 7. AJP-C 8. Beckham-2B 9. Morel-3B
  16. QUOTE (Reddy @ Dec 29, 2011 -> 06:41 PM) Ok ima take a break cuz typing on a phone is hard but gimme better options than iowa first and i'll try and poke holes in 'em later Let's make them actual swing states then. In the past 6 presidential elections, 5 of the times they went Democratic. 1. Colorado 2. Virginia 3. North Carolina 4. Florida 5. Ohio Now, I know that the other reason why Iowa is so popular, is that its cheap advertising. The TV and Newspaper ad buys are cheaper in say, Des Moines then they would be in LA, New York, Chicago, Miami, etc. So the candidates without as much $ in the bank, can still buy ad space there. However, in todays new media age, I don't think that matters as much as it did say 20 years ago.
  17. you're all kidding yourselves if you don't realize that this is about the all mighty dollar. Iowa, New Hampshire, etc fight like crazy for these "first in the country rights" because they realize the huge amount of $ being brought into the state. Everything from TV ads, Hotel Rooms, Gas for statewide bus trips, restaurants, commercial real estate for headquarters, etc. Personally, I'd love to see a national lottery done the day after the election to determine the order of the first 5-10 states for the following presidential election. Get more states involved. Maybe Alabama would be first, or Ohio, or Minnesota. Why give those rights always to Iowa/New Hampshire? Sh*t, how awesome would it be if Hawaii or Alaska won the right to go 1st?
  18. my worst nightmare, right here. http://thesnydertwins.com/
  19. Celebrate Chicago year. "honor" a famous Chicagoan at games. Hugh Hefner Kanye west Obama Hillary Kathy griffin Jennifer Hudson Jenny McCarthy Oprah Plain white t's Etc
  20. hey 2012 is an election year.. why not get the worlds most prominent Sox fan, come to the ballpark? I know Illinois isnt a swing state, but hey what's a 4-5 hour diversion from Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan or Missouri for a night at home with the Sox.
  21. take unused upper deck tickets, partner with local athletic associations/park district and have special nights for those kids/team/families. Example.. Wheaton Park District baseball night. Closely coordinate and give away 500 or so tickets to the organization for the kids and parents. Allow them to come in before others to watch batting practice or hang on the field after the game. Something "special". In the meantime, they are paying for parking, buying concessions/merchandise while at the stadium while trying to capture these kids as Sox fans for the future. Very little variable costs associated with empty seats.
  22. QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Dec 6, 2011 -> 11:12 PM) As long as it doesn't take away Viciedo's playing time, then im all for it. If it means less playing time for Rios, then I am all for it. Or deaza
  23. can we include Peavy in that package?
