A foreign policy recommendation from a war criminal? That's like asking Adolph Schickegruber (better known under an alias) to recommend someone to head UNESCO ... or the UN itself. Yep, expert on foreign policy -- i.e., the scorched earth policy... applied both at home and abroad.

I say at least half since i suspect the portion is much large. Got to hand it to the Grand Old Perverts for taking a stance and sticking to it. (Pity they can't find a POTUS candidate who will do the same.)

AT&T claimed contract and demanded hundreds/thousands even though they were no longer supplying service at my location (service not guaranteed, of course) and didn't expect to be up again for nearly a year. Filed complaints with FCC and BBB ... ATT caved ... bye, bye ATT ... you're not missed.

I gave up a large house (urban setting) years ago and moved into a motor home ... and moved and moved and moved ... So now, my floor space is 8 by 34 (under 300 sqft ... plus a 200+ sqft porch) but I'm living on two acres of temperate rain forest ... yep, fair trade. (And the view is great ... as well as the neighbors -- bears are really very quiet).

Can't we have a crash program to breed better bulls (for the improvement of the human gene pool) Mon, 9 Jul 2012 19:36:50 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/3-gored-during-Pamplonas-running-of-the-bulls-161796435.html#IDComment398631149 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/States-fight-tourists-trafficking-painkillers-161718375.html?clmob=y#IDComment398125909 Maybe they're Limbaugh suppliers?

We simply must breed better bulls for more fatalities.

Hope he keeps copies of the new story when applying for a job elsewhere! Oh, and the man he saved? Maybe he should sue Jeff Ellis and Associates for reckless endangerment ... by trying to prevent their employees from saving someone's life.
