Tagman, take your time and get yourself 100% healthy. The hybrid discussion can wait until hell freezes over .

New Car, Rum Cake, Presidential Election by hpowders

Well 2 out of three ain't bad. Dang!
 
I'll be hiding a lot of my US currency in old empty Clement Rum bottles in anticipation of "redistribution."
 
I knew my wife's policy of never, ever throwing anything out of the house would someday be good for something.
 
I wonder if JJ's tears were due to last night's landmark historical moment, or much more likely-the realization that his victimization game and all the money he's squeezed out of it, finally can be seen as having no "cred".

Thank you very much for your kind good wishes.
 
I was driving on the interstate today talking to the wife, not even realizing I was going over 80 mph. Felt more like 65. Sneaky little devil, that BMW 3 Series.
 
I have yet to find the ideal position for the driver's seat. It will come.
 
I was looking over at the wife and she was sitting in obvious discomfort-the seat was too close to the dash and the lumbar was hitting her lower back like someone was sticking a fork through her L3-L4 vertebrae. I pulled over, got out and fixed it all for her....
She is after all, the mother of my rum cake!

Mea culpa! Of course I meant "Alpine White." This is how it starts, I guess....

So... you confess to using the words "Arctic White" instead of "Alpine White". This is a serious offense, likely due to being under the influence of rum cake, to which you have willingly and publically confessed to all corners of the world on the world wide web.
 
Well... fortunately "Arctic White" is used by Mercedes Benz, another legendary German marque... so even though you are guilty, you are subsequently pardoned, Germanic Man.

Congratulations! by dewey

As a Canadian I love being your neighbor .
Here in Canada having a Prime Minister who is not from the French part of Canada is considered radical.
 
There is no other country on earth which would allow or democratically elect a visible minority to become a national leader. NONE! Tribal, ethnic, religious, and racial characteristics is what defines a leader in places other than USA. USA has transcended all countries and is guided by far more worthier principles than any other place on this earth.
 
Congratulations again!
 
Now here is the problem: The USA will likely be facing the risk of bankrupcydue to its humungous entitlement programs-Social Security, Medicare, Medicade. What's the potential shortfall--$53 trillions which makes the current 700 billion $ financial bailout look like chickenfeed. Unless President Obama has the guts to impose major entitlement cutbacks or raise taxes substantially there will definitlely be a PROBLEM. In otherwords the status quo cannot be maintained.

Canada faced a debt crisis about ten years ago and with major government cuts and painful reforms that crisis was resolved( In the 1990s Wall Street Journal wrote that Canada will become a poor developing country with a Canadian Peso currency). Times have changed since then but it took a lot of belt tightening to accomplish a turnaround.
