"Call your congressman" HAHA, do you really do that? A long time ago I used to sit in a room with my congressman at the local chamber of commerce lunches when I was up in Ga. Mr. Gingrich quit using phones after that little scandal where some people using scanners picked up his private deal making - hehe. He told me he turned off his phone - Mr. Nunn was on some military base group up on the hill - he told me to buy lots of rental real estate in ga around big military bases. That was some good advice Slagle. "and tell them to vote NO on CAFTA." Now why would I want to do that? Why should the slant eye girl be the only one to get acid poured on her because she is not meeting quota of power hungry mega corp? (sigh)

Hey Slagle, I read in the st. pete times where Buffet may buy up Progress Energy - but then I read it was psychoclown BOOYAH boy that made the prediction. I was thinking of rearranging some of my vangaurd portfolio to overweight in VPU. Too much vgenx. Did you catch the article on the little girl that got stabbed in the back with a dead catfish? stpetetimes.com Now if my grandfather had this happen to one of his kids, he would have yanked that bone out and poured some moonshine on the wound and saved all that money calling out the firetruck and ambulance and expensive surgeon bills!! These yankees never cease to amaze me, see dead fish all over clearwater beach and then send thier little 3 year olds into the water so they can get the good stuff in thier ears and eyes and swallow healthy redtide seawater and have problems the rest of thier lives. How do people get to be so disconnected from common sense? I used to surf all the time in hawaii but I don't remember the north shore having the dead fish or smells I have experienced here.
