Replying to: bmlexus (Nov 05, 2008 4:44 pm)  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!

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. http://www.cnsnews.com/public/content/article.aspx?RsrcID=33574 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. |

Replying to: dewey (Nov 05, 2008 8:01 pm) Secondly, fear not, Dewey. Obama shall raise taxes. That was part of his platform. Just much more widely, I believe, than he led us to believe while campaigning. Curb spending/cut entitlements? Unlikely. Hold on... But, I hope to be completely wrong, as I note in point one up there... I do plan, however, to earn much less money so that I can get much more of Tag's, hpowders, Lexusguy, clembo and blkhemi's!!! Thanks, guys!

Replying to: dewey (Nov 05, 2008 8:01 pm) There is so much at stake... the way I see it, failure is not an option. So... I'm curious now... How dangerous are white cars in the Canadian snow? TM |
