Re: Koch Brothers behind effort to break unions in Wisconsin, elsewhere

Jesus Christ!  160k is just too f*&cking much money for any person to make!  We should only have undocumented immigrants working for the government!

I'm sure it will be available on netflix at some point.  Classic 2 person dialog on god, humanity, suicide, all the fun stuff.

Re: My New House, Restoration and such

Waterproofing isn't done.  Old tile was applied directly to plaster or drywall.  Nowadays, it's greenboard (water-resistant drywall), cement board, or new-fangled composites.  None of them are waterproof.  Most tile damage is from worn out grout and/or caulk, or plumbing issues.

Re: Koch Brothers behind effort to break unions in Wisconsin, elsewhere

I was very impressed with the interview with the Wisconsin Governor on Morning Joe this morning.  I had no idea that their public workers are forced to to be covered by the labor union's own medical insurance unit. Smells like a rat to me. The state will save 68 million alone when the public worker...

Re: Books we are reading.

Doonesbury 40 put out by Andrews-McMeel.  It is the heaviest book I've ever owned.  I bought my first Doonesbury books with my paper route money.  I am f&*king old. :shock:

You don't think the Koch brothers are funded by your tax dollars?

HBO is showing "Sunset Limited" by Cormac McCarthy, featuring Samuel Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones.  Quite entertaining, Ignatius, I think you would enjoy it!

Re: 2010-2011 College Basketball Season

He needs to develop better offensive skills to be much of a threat.  He gets a lot of offensive rebounds and put backs off overplay on the Morris twins which makes him look good statisctically but he does not have a good shot nor does he create a shot well.  I haven't been overly impressed with Rob...

Re: GSA considers big office complex downtown

I'd have to agree with Dave, anything that is not bolted down is up for cuts, federally or locally.  Hell, the NJ governor pulled the plug on a tunnel they'd already spent a LOT of money on.
