The shrewd bastard is probably collecting the highest available price for that meat. "Ever hear of toro? This is like toro... The barn door dooesn't even cconsider opening for less than 7 smokes... and a reacharound!"

I didn't know I had any credibility to lose.

Good Book

I thought I'd recommend a good book I've just finished reading, for anyone who has an interest. John Mack Farragher, A Great and Noble Cause. It is about the expulsion of the Acadians from Nova Scotia in the 1750s, but also has a lot of insight into English colonial policy and the frictions between the older English colonies and Canada and the Maritimes. A lot of the people who were involved in late colonial and revolutionary New England make appearances in a very different light than they do in most American histories. It is also very readable.
I will put it on my list. I am still reading the Irving book, then I am reading Slaves recommendation about New York and then I will hit this one. Thanks.

I think the last time around showed us that at the end of the day, the person who got picked was the person with whom Bush was most comfortable, mano a mano. All of us who thought that ideological or political considerations would be paramount were mistaken. Not that these considerations will be irrelevant, since the candidates are being screened for him, but at the end of the day, I imagine the same will be true this time.
I think this is right. I think this rule also works for every appointment Bush makes. The guy that worked the hardest for Bush in the Silicon Valley and raised the most money made Bush uncormfortable. The guy wanted an important apointment and now he is the ambassador to some small caribbean island.

My list is getting pretty big. I may have to take some time off to get through all this stuff. I am not complaining. Before I started posting to this board I had trouble finding good books to read. I picked up a lot of lemons at the book store.

I just looked it up and put it on order. Five Days in London is the title. Thanks.

He doesn't. Guy was weird. Really religious. Another person I worked with, who Bush gave a nick name to (a sign you really are in) ended up in Paris.

Perhaps such negotiation is possible at Camp Cupcake.

At other federal institutions . . . he'd be wearing cutoff jean shorts and tying his shirt tails in a knot in no time.

Why are you asking Spanky?

Like Hank said. No. Credibility.

Hank has the best avatars.
