    Awful jobs now filled by immigrants?

    homedog's thread brought out a few of the awful jobs available to make a decent buck. When I started thinking about some of the awful work that I did on farms, it dawned on me that most of this is now probably done by Mexican immigrants because there aren't too many people willing to do work...

    Post New Year's Bowls

    I think everything has been said about all of these games, so I will just post the plays. Iowa +2 Auburn/Wisconsin U 53' Penn St. -7' USC -7 USC/Texas U 72 WVU/Georgia U 45' Of course I have to put out my lean on the Sugar Bowl, but this is not a play because I am a homer. I think Georgia...

    Super Bowl Party

    I know I read where a Vegas SB party was out, but what about doing one at another location such as Tunica, Biloxi, etc.? Just wondering if this had been discussed. Happy New Year!

    Best Bond Girl

    I've been seeing a lot of Bond (actually a lot of A View to a Kill) during Spike TVs Bond marathon lately. I have narrowed the list down, and I probably missed some of your favorites. Who is your favorite bond girl. I am not going to put "Other" as a choice, but feel free to add names in a...

    "Torture" made illegal?

    First, I may be a blind fool but I don't think our country endorses real torture. Now, as far as I can see, this new law will not allow our interrogators use as much of a tactic as sleep deprevation. This is bad news. We will sip a few cocktails and hope we get some answers. Our enemy will...

    I just don't get it

    As most of you know that have participated in conversation, I am strongly Pro-Life. I don't think there is a time when you should end one's life. The one thing I could waiver (sp?) on is when someone is requesting assisted suicide if they are of sane mind. I can't really back up why, but that...

    SEC strength

    I usually consider the SEC one of the top 3 (sometimes the top) conference in college football. But most years, the SEC disappoints me in bowl games. This year I think the SEC is pretty weak. So how will this play out in bowl season? Going on my 'contrary results to feelings' thoery, the SEC...

    Southwest crash

    I believe a 6 year old boy was killed when a Southwest flight skidded off the runway and hit a car. The boy was in the car. No fatalities on the plane. A few people injured.

    Conservative/Liberal -- Republican/Democrat

    As mentioned several times I don't follow politics all that much, but I do read many of the posters here. If everyone can control the overposting, I would like to see everyone's opinion on the ONE fundamental thought that seperates Conservatives from Liberals and Democrats from Republicans...

    Alito and abortion

    I have never understood how this became a political topic with Republicans on one side and Democrats on the other (for the most part). Isn't it simply interpreting the Constitution as to when someone being born in this country is granted their Constitutional rights? (Haskell - correct me if...

    A little praise for good companies

    I saw a rating today for the top airlines for domestic flights. I'm probably in the majority that cringes anytime they have to call or deal with an airline (barring the example below). Well, what shocked me is that one of my favorite companies as far as personal satisfaction, Southwest...

    No praise?

    I saw gas here at $2.29 yesterday. I guess there's nothing to bitch about, so no mention? I love big oil companies! I love George Bush! Since we blamed them for the prices going up, I guess they are due for praise on the way down, correct?

    Explanation needed

    Stuck in a hotel room, I get a chance to read more garbage than my normal life allows. So I came across the NFL Power Rankings on MSN.com. Can anyone explain how the 5-2 Falcons are ranked 18th, and that is behind: Bears, 3-3 Raiders, 2-4 Dolphins, 2-4 This is the NFL. There are not very...
