  1. I don't come into PPP land much if at all but I wanted to get some opinions from folks here. My dad was telling me they had this in Florida and then I read the following from today's Tuesday Morning Quarterback on ESPN.com Page 2. It makes a lot of sense and I think would make primary season a lot better. Is there any chance of this ever being put into play at the federal level? Of Course They Vote for More Subsidies, They Themselves Are Subsidized: In the spring, as a dozen Democratic and Republican officeholders were crisscrossing the country campaigning for presidential nominations yet still receiving taxpayer money for jobs they were making no pretense of performing, TMQ declared there should be a federal resign-to-run law. Several states now have resign-to-run laws: They prevent officeholders from taking tax-funded salaries while not doing their jobs. Why is it assumed that saying the words, "I am running for president" makes it OK for a senator to pull in $200,000 or so per year in pay and benefits, yet perform no duties? If you told your employer you would not perform your duties for a year because you were running for president, yet still expected full pay, your employer would say two words that are not "Merry Christmas." Now we're down to four White House-seeking freeloaders, and both parties look bad. All three senators are billing the federal taxpayer to self-promote around the clock; the governor is billing her state's taxpayers to self-promote around the clock. Either presidential candidates should be required to resign to run, or at least anyone who declares for the presidency or vice presidency should have his or her public salaries and benefits suspended.
  2. also nominating the leggy and voluptuous Rebecca Gomez
  3. Hope this isn't news to you...
  4. My favorites at FBN: Nicole & Jenna
  5. Agreed + add some good ole Machinehead to the list. A Sabres classic from the late 90s but definitely gets me pumped up.
  6. 30? You're one old f'er. HFBD!
  7. Note to self, avoid section 229, Row G...
  8. Had a cube full of coworkers, my computer was the only one that could get CNN.com to load, will never forget where I was or what happened. People should think about this more than once a year.
  9. fair enough the combination of it all will make me stick with off the wall, i know i'm better than this and a lot of people here are but just get run over by the classless ass clowns
  10. Wow, and this ladies and gentelmen is what is wrong with The Stadium Wall these days.... For the record, I hate the Pats but never want Brady or any of their players to be hurt, that's bush league but apparently commonplace around here...
  11. Thanks, Ron Pitts and Tony Boselli in Week 1...
  12. probably helped that you all shared a bed...
  13. During the stand up why is the guy with the camera laughing the whole time? It is awful...
  14. Hey fatty what about gambling on the big dice game from the fire hall? I liked that one.

  16. Talk to Tom Green, I believe he knows some guys familiar with getting to/from Ithaca... ...Austin? Austin, Massachusetts?
  17. Wow, no shame, when he hits 60, I'd love a few, I'm also trying to get a new CD...
  18. Pretty sure the Bills can void out the old tickets and give him new ones...though I'm sure somebody will buy those from a scalper and be denied at the gate...
  19. Really? Looks legit to me...
  20. If I was smart I'd think about a way to make a satellite that could harness solar panels and then beam power to earth, you could make it enormous and there is no issue with clouds in space....
  21. I really hope he doesn't wind up on ESPN radio, not a big fan
  22. I would love to see your fat fingers trying to fix a tiny laptop...you can't even type right...
  23. I can't believe they lost to the Netherlands, had the game in their hands, no reason to foul when they did. Very frustrating.
  24. Yeah I guess my concern is that I don't need to do it every time, so I'm thinking that would mess up the macro.
