    Hey Cash for clunkers worked.....

    I don't get these programs??? Where is the money for these government rebates coming from? I'm assuming from taxes, which means if I can't afford a new car even with the rebate; I am expected to pay taxes towards someone else getting a good deal on a car. Am I jealous--well, yeah kinda...

    Millions face shrinking Social Security payments

    OVM - so what do you propose we do with old widows that were homemakers? They may not have paid in to SSI themselves, but they most definitely worked. I don't know what the answer is, but I think we owe it to our senior citizens to support them--not be upset because they've outlived their...

    Brett Favre... make up your mind!

    Moose, moose---the sad part about the Vikings...well one of the sad parts is that they think they are the Packs biggest rival. Da Bears have always been public enemy #1 for Green Bay. The Vikings take a backseat with the Lions dontchya know. Looking forward to Nov. 1

    who taught you to drive?? what did you learn?

    Having a bad day? It took me a while to get used to the flashing red lights they have here in left turn lanes---that and the infamous "Michigan left" turnarounds. My old gripe used to be people starting out before the light had turned green. You could see them looking at the light the...

    Meet Mr. Guinness

    As Art Linkletter would say...."I heartily endorse their product." No surprise that anyone with the means would come here. My wife used to work at the Cleveland Clinic. They had sultans, sheiks, and all kinds of various heads of state go their for treatment.

    Lesson from a Spanish writer

    I agree with you on "racism" being overused and it does not technically apply here. How about inflammatory or discriminatory? The point is that it is unfair to categorically take a group that large and try and draw the conclusions that are made in that letter. I don't have an issue with...

    Brett Favre... make up your mind!

    Hopefully young atheletes are watching this and learning that this is not the way to go out gracefully. I loved watching Favre play---yes even after going to the Jets. That first time I can ignore. He felt he could still play and the Pack had moved on. No big deal, plenty of players end...

    If ur new or old, things Ive learned.

    Coleman makes a cooler that you can either run off of a standard wall outlet or plug into the cigarette lighter---can be used standing on end like a dorm room fridge or laying down like an ice chest. If the engine is going to be of a while, I'll stop and get a fountain drink and fill an old...

    More on them Russian Subs

    Comrade Layoutshooter--no need to fear Russian sub---just looking for lost freighter. Just kidding----I can't believe it hasn't gotten more attention. They're just testing the waters---and our lack of response means we failed the test. Not to worry, I'm sure if it happens again, our Prez...

    Football!!!

    Yeah, I'll jump on the Cowboys hate bandwagon. America's team--yeah right. I have been making it to one game a year for the last 5 or 6 years. I'm thinking about taking my oldest boy for his first Tundra trip. Been a Packer fan before Favre, so I stuck with them through some bad seasons...
