    Remember when the police told the media that they had lied to them about the Sniper's White Van cause the media would have given away info about the case that the police needed. Its like that, yes we should be entitled to info, but the media gives out confidential info that is needed to be kept private temp for a reason. They also embelish and make up stories to sell more papers, And if you're basing your info on the news media like every other moron than I'm not saying another freakin' word. Because I'm wasting my time.

BTW, if I said anything you'd not only 'not' believe me, but you probably not look for solid evidence for justification, just cry about oil cause your gas prices would go up. Hey look at Belgium. Gas is essentially four dollars a gallon, most people ride bicycles, and very few of them are overweight. unlike most americans

          Anger with the French and German stand has led some US congressmen to call for a trade boycott of French products and the withdrawal of some US troops from Germany. And some consumers are already reducing their purchases of French cheese and wine. ... Meanwhile, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, J Dennis Hastert, has asked Congress to consider banning French exports of wine and bottled water on health grounds. ... And the president of the French-American Chamber of Commerce, Boris Marchand-Tonnel, warned that US airlines that were getting government support would be reluctant to buy Airbus commercial jets from France. Ah! Good old American arm-twisting tactics are back.. :| Story...[^] Follow live World Cup Cricket scores here[^]

          Funny, isnt this what lots of European's were spouting? Boycott american goods and trade. Not that I agree with either side of the argument; because I don't trust either side. It just seems funny that it is "arm-twisting" when amreicans do it and a boycott when non-americans do it. The whole this is just silly. "Veni, Vidi, Booyah!" - Ceasar

I am sure that that are a lot of Plays and Musicals showing in the Bay Area. Plus, this is a good time of year to try Skiing or SnowBoarding if you havent already. Just break any habits you may have formed about doing the same thing for entertainment. I managed to do it while staying in Japan, Taiwan, and France for extended (6 - 9 months..not military)periods of time. "Veni, Vidi, Booyah!" - Ceasar

              Someone posted to the soapbox a while ago ( I think just after the axis of evil speech ) that they wished for Clinton back, and said 'what we've got now is a war crazed nut, and all Clinton did was try to get a blow job. Hell, I do that every saturday night'. I thought that was quite inspired at the time.
