Replying to: rockylee (Jan 29, 2008 10:01 pm) The shoddy crap made today might be more energy efficient and high-tech but it's designed to fail.   I agree, and it is especially true about vehicles. They are designed for a lot of miles and not many years. They crumple in the most minor of accidents and are not worth repairing.   On the Chinese front. Do not eat the Chinese dumplings.   TOKYO — At least eight Japanese were sickened, including a child who remains in a coma, after eating Chinese-made dumplings contaminated with an insecticide, police and health officials said Wednesday..   Looks like Japan is buying Chinese stuff also.

Replying to: lemko (Jan 30, 2008 5:43 am) lemko, this is no lie but I'm almost certain in Dumas, Tx we had illegals working at the local Wal~Mart, because they spoke broken English, and talked in Spanish to each other when ever I wanted to find something. It's like they couldn't comprehend simple "items"   -Rocky

Replying to: lemko (Jan 30, 2008 5:46 am) lemko,just talked to dad and she just got out of surgery and everything went well with her surgery. She's got to spend 24 hours in the ICU. Thanks guys for caring it meant alot. Grandma, is 70 years but people in my family live to be very old so it is almost expected for her to have alot of life left in her.   -Rocky

There doesn't seem to be much. From the comments the last couple of days, many of y'all will enjoy continuing over in one of these discussions:   Politics   Presidential Primaries and Election
#2492 of 16706 UAW on strike by steve_ HOST Feb 28, 2008 (2:34 pm)
"On Tuesday, 3,650 members of the United Auto Workers union struck American Axle's five U.S. plants."   Uphill Battle   Yep, we're open again for talk about the unions and the automakers. If we stray too far from the UAW, we'll go into hibernation again. So please try to keep it topical. Thanks. Replies to this message: imidazol97 (Feb 28, 2008 3:21 pm)

#2494 of 16706 Take your lumps by imidazol97 Feb 28, 2008 (3:28 pm)
Delphi workers may get rebates   The Delphi workers are UAW, I believe, and despite lump sum payments may still get rebate checks from the economy stimulation package.
