Heh, our free leaf pickup here in Steuben County consists of a match. Works like a charm, cheap too.

If the Dems/Press (I know redundant) didn't like Lugar this would be an issue ala "charlie white"...but in their eyes he's an ally on most things..

Ouch! That's gonna leave a mark Monica! Very well written and expressed.

I'm not familiar with Churchward but I grew up with Thoma since like 5th grade, always known him to be good guy. I sure wouldn't want that job/case.

He will be missed alright. Heck of a nice guy.

Oh for the love of God, again with the frickin trains???? What is it with these morons? Why not just go back to horse & buggies....

You can't buy or sell real estate either without a photo I.D.

Phil, If I wanna give my kid $50,000 why should it be taxed whether I'm dead or alive? I was taxed on the money when I earned it, now if I want to give it away or set fire to it in a pile in my back yard, how is it fair the state gets to whack me again???????
Well over half of what I earn goes to various taxes from the county level on up to the Federal level and on every damn thing I buy and all they do is fricking WASTE IT.
There is nothing more unfair and insidious than a death tax. It's like beating me bloody with bat all my life, then rubbing salt in the open wounds right before I die.

The boot would work, the property lien not so much unless maybe you were referring to putting a lien on the title of car (not their house).
