  1. I try to give anyone parking in handicap the benefit of the doubt, because they might have a not obvious affliction. But what really bothers me is when I'm grocery shopping and I see some of the fattening food obese people are buying, and especially when they have overweight kids. Seeing them in Chinese buffets also bothers me. At least make an effort to improve.
  2. Although I have a Chrysler, I always question why can't American manufacturers give the same 10 year, 100k warranty like Hyundai does if they're just as reliable. By the way, the company I work at makes engine gaskets, and we're a couple months away from probably closing. The company can't get any more credit and it's cash flow is almost gone.
  3. Recent previous transitions didn't occur in such dire straits, so there hasn't been a need to reassure the public and financial markets like there is now. Perhaps if Bush was more involved and decisive, Obama wouldn't need to take such action. But since Bush has checked out, somebody has to show there are steps being taken to improve the situation in the near future. The title is correct, anyone talking at the podium is part of the Office of the President Elect.
  4. Just take a couple rows out of the back and pen them all in together so they can graze.
  5. The people or surrogates petition the White House, and they have to present a convincing case as to why they have been inprisoned wrongly, too long, or are deserving of an early release. I'm sure we'll see the more political ones like Libby in the last days. I read that the White House is trying to find a way to grant pre-emptive blanket pardons for anyone involved in the illegal wiretapping of Americans in the U.S., or those involved in torture.
  6. If they want to make it interesting it should become Hannity & Sharpton.
  7. If McNabb doesn't start on Thursday, then he's done in Philly. I think they should still start him as long as they have a chance of making the playoffs, otherwise Reid will piss off the veterans. McNabb is probably done in Philly anyways, since his salary cap number for next year is over $10 million. It's time for Reid to go too.
  8. It depends on what you're planning on shaving.
  9. Reggie Wayne, Brandon Jacobs not playing. I love how at 12:30 Jay Glazer says Jacobs is playing, then before the 4pm start he comes back and says he's not playing. WTF?
  10. $1.99 at Kwik Fill in Cicero, suburb north of Syracuse.
  11. I'd play Gore and Johnson. Both are going to get alot of touches, while Miami spreads the ball around to too many players.
  12. You would rather a new president came in and promised to create more unemployment? Part of the role of a new president is to use the bully pulpit to instill confidence and hope. Nobody listens to Bush anymore because he lost credibility years ago.
  13. I didn't say she deserved it, but the fact is that she has the experience and qualifications to be Senator. Rep. Slaughter could be an interim appointment and then someone else like Cuomo could run in 2010. The Buffalo mayor is also a possiblity.
  14. Funny how people who didn't vote for Obama are the one's making the most noise about this not being the change they voted for. Perhaps it's as simple as Obama wanting to fill his cabinet with the most knowledgable people who don't have to be micromanaged because we have so many problems that need solving at the same time. Obama's first priority is to work on the economy, he can trust Hillary has the knowledge and skill to work the details on foreign policy after he sets the strategic objectives.
  15. The best choice...Bill Clinton. The logical choice...Rep. Nita Lowrey. She was planning on running in 2000, but stepped aside to let Hillary run.
  16. DC Tom stares at frozen orange juice because the label says "concentrate".
  17. I thought the Bills would be contending for a wild card spot behind New England, that they would establish a strong running game that would allow Edwards to progress without alot of pressure like Rothlensberger did as a rookie in Pittsburgh, and the defense would be putting continuous pressure on opposing QBs.
  18. Maybe a pardon in Alaska is really a mercy killing. The turkey couldn't take another 4 years of Palin being the spokesperson of its state, so it was pardoned from living through it.
  19. Brady Quinn vs Houston or Chad Pennington vs New England 2 RBs Joseph Addai vs San Diego Marshawn Lynch vs KC Larry Johnson vs Buffalo Chris Johnson vs Jets
  20. Matt Cassell @Miami Also, pick two running backs: Michael Turner vs Carolina Marshawn Lynch @Kansas City I'd be suprised if Tennessee gives up alot of points, and they're tough against the run.
  21. You're confused, McCain was the Manchurian Candidate, but by losing they never got to activate his programming.
  22. Bin Laden is toast, it's just a matter of time. The question is does the U.S. do it alone, or do we gain back the international support we had after 9/11 and before Iraq so it happens sooner and easier. And can we give those that al Queda recruit from a better option than supporting them so we reduce their influence among young Muslims.
  23. It's happened twice to my son's Xbox, both times they sent us a replacement one. They don't send the mailing box anymore, but they can box it up for you at UPS. Here's the support website for the red ring problem: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907534
  24. I qualified it as being a Democrat because I believe he will choose a Republican to be SoDefense after Gates leaves, probably Chuck Hagel, Colin Powell, or Richard Lugar.
