  1. Thats my point. Actually, Bush has been TALKING about oil conservation for years. Has ANYTHING actually been done about it? I personally feel conservation is the wrong way to go, but rather development of economical alternatives to oil...but thats a reasonable debate that reasonable people can have. On your other point. Cutting taxes does NOT mean cutting revenue to the government. In fact, it often does the exact opposite. That doesnt mean we should spend MORE money...but rather further cut taxes to establish an equilibrium lower tax rate. Im against most new spending programs, as I think they cause an over-reliance on the government and degradation of personal responsibility. The federal government is just too big and too intrusive, and as a result is unable to adapt to the quickly changing world we are now in.
  2. Of course they were! But in any ranking, its always hard to put the teams that lost ahead of ANY team that won. There are only a handful of teams who lost the SB ranked above us. That, combined with the giants team being only 33rd...seems about right to me
  3. Well, there has been 40 superbowls, so 43rd would seem to be one of the best teams that did not win it all. Not that that matters much.
  4. I thought it was a good speech, but im done with listening to empty rhetoric on either side of the isle. Go do what needs to be done. Cut taxes. Privatize social security. Get Iraqis to protect their own country and get out of there. Find Bin Laden. Secure our borders. Balance the budget. Develop alternative energy. Foster strong international relationships. Stop arguing with each other, and SHUT UP. With the exception of social security privatization, there shouldn't be an objectionable item on that list! Talk is okay, but results matter. Git'R'Done
  5. Yeah, because they need portis AND mcgahee. `
  6. 1) Capitalize Bar Inn. 2) Bilingual. Great. What languages? 3) You say you have strong interpersonal skills and are self motivated. This is good, but I dont see alot of proof up above in your work history. Try to show us some things that accentuate these skills. 4) Your most recent work will be the most important. you said you "maintained" customer satisfaction. Try this. Change it to "Improved customer satisfaction by.....(fill in the blank)" This will help with #3 above as well. 5) Designed and built displays. Needs a little work. Perhaps "Designed innovative and original product displays designed to increase product exposure and (??? Up-sell opportunities, customer loyalty, profitability....etc.) 6) Supported Sales Staff. Try something more descriptive. How did you support them? Also, try getting rid of the word "support". It makes it sound like you were not an important player, but rather someone who just did a few things on the side. Try to take a similar approach with the rest of your jobs listed. Met with lobby groups. Great. But what does that do for the guy hiring you? Try to spin about every item to appeal to the company you are applying with. The trick is to not go over the top here. Also, im a little torn with the real estate sales licence. My problem with it is that it really doesnt fit, and shows some indicision where you want to go with your life. You have a poly sci degree, work in marketing, and have a real estate licence, all within the last 2-3 years. Three IMO, distinct fields. What makes me think you wont want a career change 6 months from now? Tough call, because its not a bad thing. Also, you have some good experience with the government intern job. Then you have some good experience with the distribution company. Not sure if you need to include the bartender job. I might drop this. It leaves a 2 month gap between graduation and the distributing job, but its right after graduation. It is very common for people to take a month or two off after graduation, as it is the last time you can really do that. Something to consider.
  7. Ahhh yes. Ruben AND Rusty. #1 and #2 on TDs biggest mistakes list
  8. I hate the guy too....but if i was an NFL player....I would hire rosenhose without much thought.
  9. Some guy by the name of Bill Bellichek comes to mind. I wonder if Jerry Gray would be considered
  10. Samoas...but 4 in a box is a ripoff
  11. Sadly, TBD may be better than a resume service! But I second the other opinion. Check with your university.
  12. wow....how she did not snap her neck is beyond me.
  13. It wasnt so much the words, but he was so bitter and short it was almost uncomfortable to watch. Though my laughter helped me get through it
  14. Unless they are running for senate against Jim Webb, i doubt that would make much difference
  15. unless the new commissioner is "Selig Lite" and declares a tie after 3 OT periods....
  16. “LaDainian Tomlinson is right. I’m not classy. But then neither is his slutty mother.” Bill Belichick
  17. How are you sitting AND pacing?
  18. Hmm...when the running back lines up behind the quarterback...it could be a run? Man, there is so much i need to learn about this game
  19. WOW....nice job by wayne! turns out it didnt matter...but damn. nice recovery
  20. Idiots...there were only 11 guys in the huddle (on the picture simms counted to 12 on). Tivo it!
  21. Yeah, that really explains the redsox, celtics and bruins....
  22. Why do I get the feeling I could be an all pro if i suited up for the patriots.
