Well, to a degree it actually is.
When you are supposed to develop a working class euphoria and end up
being one of the "have all's" and everybody else is a "have not". I
really wouldn't say thats a good form of leading by example.
But true, I suppose we do have more than our share of bilkers.

Really, The New York Lies? You have got to be kidding. Right off it
accuses the "Republican Party" of using Obama's middle name.. Which is
of course a lie. Intellectually honest folks really can't expect to
get anything from the NY Lies but a chuckle and a few cupons on the
weekend...

Evidently he didn't do too good of a job at his attempt. If I rememebr
correctly, Wasn't he proven to be one of the most corrupt of Eastern
bloc dictators..?
That was the guy in Romania.


Oh, I know the difference between Josip "Tito" Bronz and Milosovic.


But the ws I see it is that Tito didn't like the "ruskie way of
communism, and went to fight the corruption, but had a highly corrupt
dictatorship.


Milosovic? He was corrupt all right, but he wasn't as corrupt as he
was an evil butcher.


Romania's dictator from the Soviet era was Nicolae Ceausescu.- Hide quoted text -

You're right. My bad.

Milosovic was later Yugosllavian.

I'm corrected.

Still he was a butcher.

Montgomery County keeps track of who doesn't put their county provided
and resident paid for blue bins out at the curb each week.

Often they have to pay someone to take the recycled material out of the
county. It appears that the market for recycled material is not as big
as everyone thinks.

LOL! do I remember that.

Pluse the ensuing jokes about "Dick" and "The Pink"

Been there done that, used to go there when it was called "the pits"
back in the 70's where we would hang out and drink and burn consumables.

I think the county may be thinking of another one on the west side of I95,

This appears to be a good use for future Super Fund sites in Virginia.
There is another 9 hole course in Norfolk right on the water. Don't make
