Damn, I didn't know that. That explains a lot of the problems with
our infrastructure. Maybe we
should give union workers more money.

Might be true, but I suspect it isn't and you are just trolling,
otherwise you would have mentioned a source.

Look at the abstract of the new Doctor's dissertation. Are you calling
her misinformed, or worse, a liar like her husband.


Sadly, substance abuse is far worse among non-unionized construction
workers, most of whom work on projects where employees are not subject
to random drug tests.

Bull****.



Oh? What the hell would you know about it?

There's very little unionization among residential home building
companies producing single family houses, townhouses and low rise
apartment buildings, and a low percentage of non-unionized contractors
involved in infrastructure construction, and on large commercial
projects, especially where governmental funds or guarantees are
involved. There are perfectly valid studies available that show that as
bad as substance abuse is among unionized workers, it is significantly
worse among non-unionized construction workers.


More bull****. Although I'm sure the unions have 'purchased' some studies for you to reference.

Hey guys, listen up for a minute.

Do you really think it's appropriate to drag someone's wife or other
family member into the so called discussions here?

The only thing that any of us know for sure about Harry's wife is that
she is married to a loser. That should be burden enough for her.

In all seriousness I'd like to see everyone knock it off. It's just
not the right thing to do.

And yes, I know, I know, I really do, so don't dredge up the past.
It's all out there and we all know where to find it.

Two wrongs does not make a right however, and some of you do know
better.



I definitely agree with this post. Family should not be mentioned - by either side. Of course, that
means all the incest and family pedophile comments should go also.

They're sick.



I've been nothing but complimentary to your wife, Herring.


I stand by my post. And, my wife is quite deserving of compliments!

Uh-huh. Sure, John, whatever makes you feel comfy in your insulated
little reich-wing world.

Why do I doubt you'll be mentioning this next time you run into a
construction worker...

Herring, physically, looks like he could be knocked to the ground by a
passing feather. Remember those photos of thin, brittle-looking HIV
sufferers in the 1980's? Well, our boy Herring looks like one.


Just because you're such a fat, nasty smelly sort doesn't mean that
because someone is thin they frail. I'll bet he's in better physical
shape than you are.


Try following John H around a golf course, on foot, sometime. The man is
a machine.


Well, I wasn't wearing combat boots then either!

I tried walking Forest Green last week. Had to catch a ride for some of the green to tee walks. Old
age catching up.

Oh, I am 6' 3" tall, and my weight is right at 180lbs. Not sure what charts Harry is looking at. I
seem to be right on the mark:

http://www.healthchecksystems.com/heightweightchart.htm

I was supposed to play today, but this damn rain is definitely slowing down the golfing.

I've been having trouble with my drives. At the range a couple days ago, I found that choking up
helped a lot. So, I cut an inch and a half off the end of the driver and re gripped it. Will see
what happens. We're playing Quantico again Monday.

So by that comment you feel you are innocent. What about the others
that you have degraded by your use of extremely derogatory comments?
Oh, by the way, "others do it" is only an excuse kids use, so don't try
that one.

Maybe you are shrinking;-). Harry's down to 5'11" you know.

Harry has said that He is in charge of his own behavior, so I don't
think you have to worry about him blaming his behavior on someone else.
