Hi Rich,
I thought it was funny, sure a lot of grump old men lurking today.
Have a great day!

How many hurricanes have you sat through, and weeks after with no
electricity? No stores open, and little food being brought into the
area? Don't keep food on hand, if it's your choice but after several
times of being stuck at home for over a month has taught me to keep
enough canned and dry goods on hand for at least a month. I don't
really care if the idiots starve to death because they are to stupid or
lazy to keep emergency rations.

None. I've never mud wrestled, and I certainly won't do it with any
man. Apparently you've never been so sick that you could barely stand,
and had to walk five miles to get groceries. A normal 15 minute walk
took three hours, each way. I had spent five full days unconscious with
a bad case of the flu and had lost over 20 pounds in five days. laugh
all you want, and continue to think you're smart but you have no clue.

from bringing food, ice, generators, flashlights, batteries or any other
items you
would be in need off. It's Price gouging!
http://www.800helpfla.com/price_gouging.html
Let's say I'm in Northern Alabama, I run to my local generator dealer and
load 10
$600 generators in the truck and go to Florida, I sell them to people for
$900.
The buyers are happy until the state tells them they got gouged. They
complain
now I'm liable for $1000 fine per generator.
Forget it! Most of them are transplanted yankees anyway.
I'm from the government and I'm here to help you. (NOT)

[/quote]
my impression of Ms Hilton is that she has a public persona - a stupid blond
chick that show a lot of flesh from time to time - but that she is really
pretty smart, and knows exactly what she is doing - I would not be surprised
to discover that she thought carefully about what to say about swine flu
that would be sufficiently "blond" to feed her public - think of it this
way, if she was actually stupid, she wouldn't make (and keep) all the money
she is making - it's not just Conrad's fortune any more. |
