Potomac, Maryland, is fairly fancy, but doesn't begin to compare to
Great Falls, Virginia. Potomac is fairly far out in the 'burbs to
attract many national pols, though I'm sure some live out there. It's
near Rockville, which is a tad lower on the economic scale, but has lots
of good restaurants.

Harry you are an idiot. Your attempt to slam me has proven again that you
are pitiful old man. I live in Gaithersburg, MD and I am anxiously awaiting
your condescending and demeaning comments about Gaithersburg, MD.

Great Falls, VA and Potomac, MD are directly across from each other on the
Potomac river just North of Wash. D.C. From Great Falls you have to cross
the Potomac river to get into D.C. and from Potomac, MD you only need to
pick a road.

Potomac, MD attracts liberals and Great Falls, VA attracts conservatives
which is evident in the medians income comparison.

Here's a google for you to type: *millionaires per capita naples

I think you'll find that you are wrong as you sift through the 993
results
that google returns.

All you have to do is a simple demographics search, and you will see
that Naples, FL is average income. IF you are correct in the
assumptions that Naples has more millionaires than most cities
similar
in size, then I am correct! That would mean, because the area is
average in income, that there are a LOT of poor people there.

LMAO!!!!!

The median income for a household in the city of Naples, Florida was
$65,642
The median household income for the United States was $42,148.

The median income for a family in the city of Naples, Florida was
$83,831.
The median income for a family in the United States was $50,200.

The per capita income for the city of Naples, Florida was $61,141. The
per
capita income for the US was $29,451. Connecticut had the highest per
capita income of all the States of $40,870.

Compare the figures dummy. They speak for themselves.

Naples must be a slum...

In Potomac, MD:

The Median household income: $128,936 (year 2000)
Median house value: $450,800 (year 2000)

You are too funny Don! A socialist womb to the tomber from Canada giving
advice about carrying one's "own weight"? Yowser!

In Texas you usually cannot collect unemployment insurance if things
don't "work out". If you quit or get fired from a job you are not eligible.
You also have to work at a job a certain length of time in order to qualify.
You also do not qualify when you own your own business and work for
yourself. The piddling 'maximum' amount one can get from the TEC
wouldn't even pay for my utility bills anyways Don.

What's wrong you decided you didn't like your original source and definition
of Whiskey, in case you forget I copied it below:

From this site:

http://www.physics.uq.edu.au/people/...iskeymore.html

What is whiskey?
Whiskey is a barrel-aged distilled spirit made from grain or malt. It
differs from other types of grain alcohol in that it absorbs colour
and flavour from the barrels during aging, it retains more flavour from the
fermented mash by being distilled at
a lower proof and being less thoroughly filtered. As a result, it is much
more
flavoursome than vodka. Unlike gin and akvavit, it doesn't have other
flavourings added.

No more oil rigs for me! I might miss traveling so much though.

I will probably disappear though, for awhile anyhow. I am
already getting tired arguing with some of the more sick elements
around here.

I mean really. Rubbing a dog's nose in it's poop = training?

Watching somebody sink and drown is a form of "what goes around
comes around" that the person (the one drowning) deserves?

Aggh. You I can handle. Even Harry Numbnuttz but I don't need
the aggravation on a regular basis. I am too busy having fun in
the offline real world.

The weather here is often in the eighties (even nineties) in the middle
of winter and the rest of the year suits me too and I have so many vices and
things that I want to do. Like paint the house (never have painted one). And
plant MORE stuff in my garden and go fishing and maybe see old friends around
the country and did I mention fishing? And oh yeah there is fishing and
boating and.

Hey! I got this really neat $400.00 RCA Scenium A/V receiver on Ebay for
$59.00 recently. It has Digital Coax inputs, Fiber-Optic cables and all the
other goodies like SACD, DTS, Dolby this and Dolby that. Totally amazing
thingie. I hooked it up to a new 16:9 ratio DLP bigscreen TV and ordered
High-Definition from the cable company. That combined with some kick-ass
surround sound (6.1) speakers and some good Netflix DVD's really rocks
the house. The dadgum cables cost more than the receiver and the speakers.

I went out and bought all the Band of Brothers DVD's and the Sopranos
from season one to season four. Wow!
