Heck, even when we had our modest 32 footer we would spend every summer
weekend (and vacation days) on it cruising around.

But you seem to post here 24 x 7.

Go figure.

Hey dummy, I don't have one at the moment. That has been stated many times
here.

You really are an idiot.

What else would you expect from someone that only has access to a computer
through his employer?

Every business owner I know has trouble finding employees. It doesn't

get my haircut the other day and the wait was 2 hours because there was
only 1 lady working. All she did was bitch the entire time that nobody
wants to work.

The jobs are there.

But are there places to live? Just curious, can a $35-40 wage afford to
live in Naples, with it's rapidly escalating real estate prices? Some of
that help finding employees may be local.

Looks pretty evenly balanced. My guess is differences can be attributed
more to regional/agricultural, variances, than to Dem/Rep differences.

So, on a national level, any guesses on who does better with unemployment,
or the economy, for that matter. Dems or Reps?

This from one who tells Tom he has the highest respect for the military!

Harry, you're a card.



Sorry, Herring, but what I said was I have respect for individual
members of the military (but certainly not all of them). I have no
respect whatsoever for the military establishment.


Harry, we all know what you've said. That's my point!

PS. If you're going to ask other's to pray, you should be setting a good
example. Your name-calling and general anti-social behavior are not doing so.

So the Democrats control the Governor's house in 60% of the 10 states with
the worst unemployment numbers, and in only 30% of the 10 states with the
best unemployment numbers.

That doesn't sound "evenly balanced" to me. That's a huge disproportion
skewed against the Dems.

Yes, but barely. A single income household earning $12-20/hour would have
to rent. Unfortunately, they have to compete with many dual-income
households *and* the baby boomer retirees.

They commute in by floating bus from Haiti each day.

LOL. The Cubans should have patented the design.
