astronomically escalate even more-- damn Swiss
companies always thinking ahead,
laiseez-faire at its best.

scheme......gotta get me a bigger bowl.

I can't find a response or position
for Sen. Cantwell D-WA.
It will be kinda interesting to watch her
re-election because of her stand of NO PAC
money as one of the her 'electable' reasons
but her net-wealth by Real Networks might make
for an appeasement, and she owes herself
a couple of mil from her last run.

THE NATION'S PETS ARE LIVING LARGE...TOO LARGE

ST. LOUIS (January 2005) - Six out of 10 pets in the United States were overweight, according to a recent Nestlé Purina study were overweight, yet almost half of their owners thought their overweight pets were in ideal shape.

"These results indicate that far too many pets today are overweight," says Grace Long, DVM, veterinary marketing director at Nestlé Purina. "Extra pounds make a difference. A score of 6 to 6.5 on the BCS scale is equivalent to being 20 to 25 percent over ideal body weight. In human terms, that's comparable to a man weighing 216 to 225 pounds when he should weigh 180 pounds."
