Perhaps speaking freely about your troubles should be taken as a sign of personal strength and courage rather than an indication of weakness and failure.

Why wouldn't a person do that among friends, whether of the online or IRL variety?

. . . “I think she has pretty thoroughly — and probably irretrievably — proven that she is not up to the job of being president of the United States,” David Frum, a former speechwriter for President Bush who is now a conservative columnist, said in an interview. “If she doesn’t perform well, then p...

This crisis was caused by political correctness being forced on the mortgage lending industry in the Clinton era. Before the Democrats' affirmative action lending policies became an embarrassment, the Los Angeles Times reported that, starting in 1992, a majority-Democratic Congress "mandated t...

so what? ..and somebody wants to pay money to know this?? I know... I'm being flip about this, but I am trying to conjure up the relevance of this discovery, other than the ability to program a computer to chase this algorithm :roll: :-? You're probably right. Just wanted to share this to all the m...

. . . See my post at the bottom of page 2. SEE, this is probably the ONLY thing I don't like about B.N., and that is, many of my better posts end up at the BOTTOM of a page, and the masses miss out on the joy of getting to read them. My apologies to you for that. Trust me on this. Bottom of the pag...

A class act.

Sail on Paul.

Christine - did you see her interview with Katie? Is it just me - I am trying not to be biased - but it really was horrible - and I was actually frightened of the thought she could be our VP who has to have conversations with foreign leaders. I have enough issues with John McCain - but even more wi...

Regardless of who said what. Regardless of which direction they were looking. They was one huge mistake made last night and it was repeated over ten times in a very short debate. Barrack Obama said the words "John McCain is right . . . ." over and over again. Never, never NEVER do that. M...

Changed his mind?

Does this mean McCain's a FLIP-FLOPPER.

"As you can see, it's brown and covered with sauce and very long . . . and that's a GOOD THING."

This won't be achieved overnight. For one thing, dairy cows have been bred for milking capacity. They are also immobilized and pumped full of antibiotics and hormones to keep them producing large amounts of milk daily. The change over will require some time. We will need to breed females for milking...

It's amazing how kids think alike.... even when separated by 30 years.

I don't actually think it would make much difference having McCain and Obama in Washington right now trying to 'help out'. They both may be running for the office of President, but that office does currently have an occupant, George W Bush, who will have to continue 'leading' for a while, unfortunat...

40 minute connection time in JFK? You're screwed unless the outgoing flight from JFK is delayed. I almost always fly out of JFK because it's the most convenient airport for me. I can't remember the last time my return flight coming home was close to being on time. The 3 NY area airports are among t...

. . . The ambitious effort to transfer the bad debts of Wall Street, at least temporarily, into the obligations of American taxpayers was first put forward by the administration late last week after a series of bold interventions on behalf of ailing private firms seemed unlikely to prevent a crash ...

I was slapped on the wrist for posting this in the End of Capitalism thread, so here it is all by itself: ================================ If John McCain had his way he'd deregulate the healthcare industry like the banking industry has been the past decade. McCain writes in the latest issue of Cont...

Ayn Rand frequently referred to the morality of altruism as a 'cancer' which was responsible for destroying our society and its capitalist underpinnings. The idea that I might do something positive for another person with no expectation of personal gain or reward, or that I might have a selfless con...

. . . FB, lot of stuff we could argue about here. A few of my thoughts... I'm NOT convinced Canada has a better system than we do.... bureaucrats are bureaucrats no matter which country they're in... Michael Moore is a sadly misguided soul and I'm NOT convinced his source material is accurate other...
