Circuit City is selling Western Digital 80 gb 7,200 rpm with 8 mb buffer
hard drives this week for $19.99 after $70 in rebates. Quite a deal if
you need a new or second hard drive for your computer.

I don't know if this deal is available in all cities.

I guess no one owns a computer here or appreciates good deals. ;-)

We can only wish Jim:-) Here that's still about 1/2 price in A$, but hey
it's a sign of things to come.

Here's some of Harry's lies for you, just to bring back old
memories:-)

But if I may?? before you read; take a look at these passages from an
article about the bent union rip off, who rip off other unionists,
(honour among .......???)

ULLICO
Union Pension-Owned Company Set to Lose $20-$30 Million
Its stock windfall from the bankrupt Global Crossing now gone,
Georgine, former head of the AFL-CIO's Bldg. &
Construction Trades Dept., blamed chief financial officer John Grelle for
the losses. Days later, Grelle resigned in protest, blasting Georgine for
not selling the company jet, which costs $3 million a year.

N.B. Now did you see that!!!!!??? Harry as you'll see below "claims"
his wife has a corporate jet!!!! He's making these stories up as the
jealous junior mail person in the PR dept!!!!

There was no indication if Grelle also called on Georgine and other union
boss directors of Ullico to return the more than $6 million they made in
inside deals of Ullico stock in 2000 and 2001. In the late 90s, Ullico was
able to buy Global Crossing stock at its initial public offering (IPO)
price. By 1999, a $7.6 million investment had mushroomed to $335 million.
After pricing its own stock at a set $25 per share, Ullico directors changed
the rules, setting a new price at the beginning of each year.

So these rip offs were raking it in at the expense of the workers in
many unions & I'll suggest that the fantasy boats that Harry claims are
HIS OWN are in fact the play things of the execs of the insurance CO, I
also suggest that's his only involvement is as the boat boy for his
union bosses!!!

Global
Crossing spiraled toward bankruptcy, and Ullico's stock took a tumble, the
Ullico directors who had bought their stock at $54 a share were given two
opportunities to sell it back, the first time for $146 a share, the second
time for $75. As Georgine and the other Ullico officials made $6.7 million
in profits, the union pension funds that own Ullico could not take advantage
of the same deal.

And clearly they have a very well practiced liar in the PR dept mail
room to help post out those bogus spin releases:-)

Anyway back to the lies:-)

Just to make your day, not only was
I a civilian employee in SE Asia, it was in Vietnam, it was
during the
war against Vietnam, I did see some horrific sights and I was
working at
the time for a U.S. general. Is that straightforward enough for you,
John, or is your amoeba still chasing your synapse
