It seems the neighbors BOA and DUK got into a pissing contest yesterday. And DUK won.
Like I say, in these uncertain times it's a safe bet. They pay divs. and are undervalued imo.
Since I don't daytrade I have patience. Good luck!
You missed the opportunity yesterday for a day trade. I would go long on it now in these uncertain times.
An inmate on the Zoo/RB PCBM board.
I do agree that Congress should vote the matter once more! As the saying goes, Sh*t or get off the pot!.
Can you pogey yourself?
Then we concur on all points! Once committed to a ground war the troops need our strong morale support! Lets hope it does not come to that.
My take is the idiot of Iraq will take the asylum offer.
You wouldn't be fooling me would ya?
No you and I (if you're married) have understanding wives! lol.
Neither, I do not watch reality TV.
Just to clarify, I hope we are agreeing on both parts! the lawsuit issue and the ground war issue!
Yes.
ezcomngo2, Actually I think that lawsuit is way out of line. We have an all volunteer military service. Anyone in the military who is a party to that suit should be considered for court martial! That said,
Stormin, makes some good points as have some other retired generals. I can think of 3-4 who have come out against a ground war in Iraq. We have paid millions of dollars to educate these guys and hopefully Rummy is taking their (the Army) advice. They are the ones that have to fight the ground war!
Another cheap whino.
You two are just grubby!
Sox can go to NY! Liquor for the Homeless
A charity that supplies the homeless in New York with wine and beer.
Many of today's homeless in New York don't really need money. They just a cold six pack of Budweiser nips or a liter of Mad Dog 20/20 to "take the edge" off.
Many of today's charitable organization's just aren't getting to the roots of these people's needs. They collect food, money, and clothing for the homeless. Guess what!? All that stuff is readily available to the scrutinizing eyes of today's street dwellers. What IS hard to come by is cheap liquor. Liqour store owners hate taking five dollars in change from a homeless, and aren't very helpful to the homeless in finding a good deal on a fine vintage cabernet or chateau de cheateau.
My charity will collect your unwanted bottles of ripple wine.. your unused six packs of Budweieser nips... your boxes of unused California refrigerator wine... and give them to the people who need it most: New York's homeless thirsty population. Don't worry about clothes and cans of food, they will get that with ease, send the booze!!!
He's busy trying to track down Ripple wine!
Is that the same as a license to kill?
My lucky day! Now, I'm sure to get lucky tonight!
Poached fish! Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
You fish with tilts and let the little kids chase them. Geesh!
Ripple, a good choice to go with the Happy Meals from Mickey Ds.
They'll pass it off as collateral damage. Actually I bet the number is alot higher if you add up all the children who have died there over the last decade.
Population
Saskatoon is Saskatchewan’s largest city with a population of 213,607 and growing.
History
The Saskatoon area has been inhabited for some 6,000 years; however, it was not until the summer of 1883 that the first settlers began to arrive and subsequently in 1903 that the town charter was obtained. "Saskatoon" is derived from 'mis-sask-quah-toomina', the Cree Indian name for a local indigenous berry.
Be still my heart, said Soxie's wife as he opened a bottle of Thunderbird.
That rant will get you no where! Math is lost on them.
I bet they have fishing too!
Don't forget to pick up your whine to go with your action flic tonight.
I want her insider tips! TIA
Oh good they have swimming there in the winter!

EXPANDED PUBLIC SKATING AND SWIMMING DURING WINTER BREAK

I edited that last reply!
Of course I did! I also believe you invited us to your house for a party and you're paying the airfare.
edit as soon as NT hits for you!!!
Happy Valentine's Day! I guess I'll just have to go with my old standby, Sylvester!
She's got VD?
It was posted on the RB DYN board weeks ago. And is probably another internet hoax by now.
Unless you have an attribution.
Boy that's been around the block! lol.
GP, For the limp wristed it comes with it's own sling.
There is nothing humorous about the DTCC.
I did not say that! The guy complaining about the DTC said it was a branch of the Fed. Last time I looked there were still only 12 branches and the DTC wasn't one of them.
Like I said the DTC is a depository bank. Your complaint is with the SEC not the DTC. Or perhaps the management of the company that ran the company so poorly that it was a shorters target.

Smith & Wesson Introduces New .50 Caliber Magnum Revolver; Most Powerful Production Revolver Ever Made
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Feb 13, 2003 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- The legendary 150-year-old handgun maker, Smith & Wesson Corp., a subsidiary of Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation (AMEX: SWB) today introduced the largest and most powerful production revolver ever made along with eight other new products at the 2003 Shooting, Hunting, Outdoor Trade (SHOT) Show in Orlando, Florida.
The new 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum(R) revolver is chambered for the new .50 caliber 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum(R) cartridge.
"The 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum is a natural progression of our leadership role in handgun development," said Roy Cuny, president and CEO of Smith & Wesson Corp. "Smith & Wesson has a strong customer contingency of hunting and shooting enthusiasts that are continually looking to us for innovation. We produced the original Magnum(R) revolver with the introduction of the .357 Magnum in 1935 and 20 years later amazed the shooting world with the .44 Magnum. Now in 2003, we have once again produced a premier hunting revolver with no equal."
The newly introduced 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum cartridge produces nearly three times the muzzle energy of the .44 Magnum round, which far exceeds all other handgun cartridges.
Based on orders to date from Smith & Wesson dealers, production on the new .50 caliber revolver has been increased. "The demand has far surpassed our original expectations," said Cuny.
Industry Response
Recently editors and writers from the firearm industry and outdoor publications previewed the new 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum revolver and the 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum cartridge at the Smith & Wesson state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Springfield, Massachusetts. "I have no doubt that within a year our members will have used this new Smith & Wesson revolver and cartridge in Africa on the world's most dangerous game", said Steve Comus, director of publications for Safari Club International.
"This firearm offers the confidence required when hunting the world's most challenging animals with a handgun," Comus concludes.
"The new Smith & Wesson Corporation has proved its capabilities, not only with the introduction of the 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum(R) revolver, but with the extensive line of products it is bringing to market in 2003," said Roy Huntington, editor of AMERICAN HANDGUNNER. "The Company, under its new leadership, has made a commitment to its core products - and to its customers."
Russ Thurman, editor of SHOOTING INDUSTRY, an industry trade publication stated, "It is exciting to see so many new products come from one manufacturer in one year. I believe dealers and consumers will find this line- up of products quite interesting."
I guess this guys a liberal too......
"Candidly, I have gotten somewhat nervous at some of the pronouncements Rumsfeld has made," says Schwarzkopf.
He contrasts Cheney's low profile as defense secretary during the Gulf War with Rumsfeld's frequent television appearances since Sept. 11, 2001. "He almost sometimes seems to be enjoying it." That, Schwarzkopf admonishes, is a sensation to be avoided when engaged in war.
The general is a true son of the Army, where he served from 1956 to 1991, and some of his comments reflect the estrangement between that service and the current defense secretary. Some at the top of the Army see Rumsfeld and those around him as overly enamored of air power and high technology and insufficiently attentive to the brutal difficulties of ground combat. Schwarzkopf's comments reflect Pentagon scuttlebutt that Rumsfeld and his aides have brushed aside some of the Army's concerns.
"The Rumsfeld thing . . . that's what comes up," when he calls old Army friends in the Pentagon, he says.
"When he makes his comments, it appears that he disregards the Army," Schwarzkopf says. "He gives the perception when he's on TV that he is the guy driving the train and everybody else better fall in line behind him -- or else."
That dismissive posture bothers Schwarzkopf because he thinks Rumsfeld and the people around him lack the background to make sound military judgments by themselves. He prefers the way Cheney operated during the Gulf War. "He didn't put himself in the position of being the decision-maker as far as tactics were concerned, as far as troop deployments, as far as missions were concerned."
Rumsfeld, by contrast, worries him. "It's scary, okay?" he says. "Let's face it: There are guys at the Pentagon who have been involved in operational planning for their entire lives, okay? . . . And for this wisdom, acquired during many operations, wars, schools, for that just to be ignored, and in its place have somebody who doesn't have any of that training, is of concern."
As a result, Schwarzkopf is skeptical that an invasion of Iraq would be as fast and simple as some seem to think. "I have picked up vibes that . . . you're going to have this massive strike with massed weaponry, and basically that's going to be it, and we just clean up the battlefield after that," he says. But, he adds, he is more comfortable now with what he hears about the war plan than he was several months ago, when there was talk of an assault built around air power and a few thousand Special Operations troops.
He expresses even more concern about the task the U.S. military might face after a victory. "What is postwar Iraq going to look like, with the Kurds and the Sunnis and the Shiites? That's a huge question, to my mind. It really should be part of the overall campaign plan."
(Rumsfeld said last week that post-Saddam planning "is a tough question and we're spending a lot of time on it, let me assure you." But the Pentagon hasn't disclosed how long it expects to have to occupy Iraq, or how many troops might be required to do that.)
The administration may be discussing the issue behind closed doors, Schwarzkopf says, but he thinks it hasn't sufficiently explained its thinking to the world, especially its assessment of the time, people and money needed. "I would hope that we have in place the adequate resources to become an army of occupation," he warns, "because you're going to walk into chaos."
