Why should Israel be allowed to have nuclear capability and they can't. It seams to me that Israel has u.n. sanctions against them on nuclear and border issues but nothing has became of that. I quarantee if we didn't back Israel on every darn thing we would have more respect in the middle east. Israel only wants peace on there own terms and will never comprimize....................Rick Mon, 30 Jan 2012 05:44:21 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/UN-nuclear-inspection-gets-under-way-in-Iran--138301634.html#IDComment278328087 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/Violence-halts-Arab-Leagues-observer-mission-in-Syria-138258524.html?clmob=y#IDComment277131322 It amazes me how these middle east country's like Saudia Arabia won't fight there own battles and then want the U.N. (USA) to intervene and fight there battles for them. I think the world would be a better place if all these fanatics just blew each other all to hell. No more problems. Also, the stance that Russia is taking could backfire in there face if the Syrian people are able to rise up and take control of there own government...................Rick Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:29:26 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/Violence-halts-Arab-Leagues-observer-mission-in-Syria-138258524.html?clmob=y#IDComment277131322 http://westseattle.komonews.com/news/urban-wildlife/713728-seal-found-dead-lincoln-park-bullet-lung#IDComment276486078 It sounds to me that this seal had other issues. It is possible someone shot it to put it out of its misery. We dont know the facts so its hard to know what happened. Years ago I came across a young fawn that had been hit by a car and left with all its legs broken. It was crying like a baby so I put it out of its misery. It still bothers me to this day years later but I think I did the right thing.......................Rick Sat, 28 Jan 2012 03:23:10 +0000 http://westseattle.komonews.com/news/urban-wildlife/713728-seal-found-dead-lincoln-park-bullet-lung#IDComment276486078 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/Man-charged-in-priests-death-found-dead-in-jail--138151868.html#IDComment275425826 He thinks he went to a better place but I can assure you that its awfully hot where he is right now..................Rick Fri, 27 Jan 2012 00:19:58 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/national/Man-charged-in-priests-death-found-dead-in-jail--138151868.html#IDComment275425826 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/Cleanup-begins-as-W-Wash-recovers-from-storms-137831504.html#IDComment270909926 I am sure glad I live in Vancouver.

They think the older they are the uglier they get. This is just not true. I have seen alot of beautiful women in there 70's,80's,90's. It just doesn't matter. I don't know if this is Heathers problem but she will ALWAYS be a beautiful women in a lot of peoples eyes.......................Rick Fri, 13 Jan 2012 21:30:08 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/entertainment/Heather-Locklear-taken-to-Calif-hospital-137281463.html#IDComment263522540 http://www.komonews.com/sports/Tebow-br-136986318.html#IDComment260166582 I am not a religous person but I do respect Tim Tebow and his beliefs.

Something you might not know is that the vast majority of Boeing employees buy Boeing stock through there 401k plans. This helps Boeing alot to stay at the cutting edge of technology. The taxes Boeing employees pay especially when they work alot of over time enables the government to buy more products that Boeing makes. Also people who just make minimum wages dont fly on airplanes. People with family wage jobs do.................Rick Wed, 30 Nov 2011 21:10:26 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/boeing/Machinists-reach-tentative-deal-with-Boeing--134768798.html#IDComment230489883 http://www.komonews.com/news/boeing/Machinists-reach-tentative-deal-with-Boeing--134768798.html#IDComment230470849 Thank you. I allways made putting the max. amount into my 401k my first priority and learned to live off of the rest. I learned that I didn't allways need the things that I wanted, and did not use credit cards excessively. If you live within your means and save you will be amazed how your wealth will grow. Trust me those 25 to 30 years will go fast and what you do today will have a profound impact......................Rick Wed, 30 Nov 2011 20:46:55 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/boeing/Machinists-reach-tentative-deal-with-Boeing--134768798.html#IDComment230470849 http://www.komonews.com/news/boeing/Machinists-reach-tentative-deal-with-Boeing--134768798.html#IDComment230422204 I retired from Boeing 2 years ago. And I must say that this would not of happened if it were not for the company and the union. There is no reason why companys and unions cannot work together to form a partnership that can benefit them both. A profitable company that can pay family wage jobs should be the goal for everyone. Good for the company, good for the employees, good for the economy................................Rick Wed, 30 Nov 2011 19:46:09 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/boeing/Machinists-reach-tentative-deal-with-Boeing--134768798.html#IDComment230422204 http://www.komonews.com/news/consumer/Pumpkin-pie-The-most-nutritious-of-the-pies-134750313.html?clmob=y#IDComment230274879 I am sorry but when it comes to dessert I could care less about nutrition. Very rarely do I even have dessert so when I do I go ahead and treat myself. Seems like the worst a dessert is for you the better it satisfies. Every now and then it just feels really good to be really bad.................................Rick Wed, 30 Nov 2011 16:17:49 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/consumer/Pumpkin-pie-The-most-nutritious-of-the-pies-134750313.html?clmob=y#IDComment230274879 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/Blast-tied-to-tofu-pan-puzzles-Portland-officials-134643768.html#IDComment229051113 Sounds to me like she passed gas to close to an open flame and did not want to tell anyone.
