  1. We could do it for one game, like the Phoenix Suns:
  2. The tax code will never be eliminated because it is the best tool for fighting white collar crime. It's also handy for nabbing higher level drug dealers.
  3. It's "among." - ...among the three, not between the three. Sheesh.
  4. There are many things taxed that you don't even know about. The tax code is huge. In law school, because I'm a glutton for punishment, I took both Federal Income Taxation and Taxation of Shareholders and Corporations. Our text was simple - the big, fat IRS tax code. Here is an exemplary list of taxes related to employee benefit, such are health plans: http://benefitslink.com/taxcode/ Justice Roberts cut the Commerce Clause approach off, but had to yield to the tax code. He did so because, unlike most of the other Justices who, now and in the past, put their political beliefs above strict readings of the Constitution and laws, he is honest. The thing is, honesty doesn't play well in the political arena. And, so, for his honesty, he's pilloried by the Right and given too much credit by the Left. People say they don't want Justices who "legislate from the bench." Okay, fine. Justice Roberts, here, did not legislate from the bench. He tackled the law as written and in yielding to its tax provision, essentially kicked it back to the Legislative Branch, Therefore, future Legislators may kill the bill without killing the bill by making laws changing that part of the code - the part Justice Roberts was kind enough to point out. It is now up to the Legislators to do their job and kill it accordingly. In the House, the Republicans have the numbers to do so, but not in the Senate. Nor do they hold the Presidency. It is up to the GOP, then, to put their best candidates forward for Senate and President. If they do so, the bill can be gutted from within. The lazy route to get what you want - The Judicial Branch - has largely been used by Liberals. Here, Conservatives attempted a Judicial end-around legislation they didn't like. They only got some of what they wanted, but not everything. Justice Roberts showed them the legislative chink in the armor. It is up to them to get off their collective asses, quit whining, and put forth electable candidates for Senate and President.
  5. I agree with 100% of what you say, especially about the hypocondriacs and their desire for cheap co-pays. Nothing really changes. So, it's hard for me to get worked up about it. It's more Democrats versus Republican garbage. People have got to outgrow it.
  6. My ex-wife didn't have any moon calendar hang ups. Guess I should have begged her to stay and tried a little during the marital counseling sessions.
  7. If you've already been in the practice of buying health insurance, how are you going to be poorer? It's not like health rates were trending downward anyway. Look, let's be realistic about all of this. Everybody knew Obama was lying when he said premiums would go down because of this bill. But, who gives a crap? Only plastic dick forks believe politicians anyway. If you thought the man was telling the truth, I want to sell you some of my ocean-front property in Nevada. Those of us who do not freeload were alread paying for the freeloaders. And, our prices were not going down. Not even close. This bill does no more than change the middle man a little bit. Before, middle man was insurer. Now, middle man is government and insurer - both of whom suck royally, but that's just life. And, as for the "we're losing our freedoms/Ron Paul crowd": Call me when we're in labor camps like the North Vietnamese. Until the 16th Amendment is appealed, Congress has the ability to tax.
  8. Heh. Those days are long gone, bro. Just accept that this town is changing, and that your kids will give in like I did and eventually marry either a Mexican or Korean.
  9. Dude, you did not want to see her feet. Her toes were all screwed up from ballet. That's always the downside of dating, marrying, and whatnot of ballerinas - they've got great legs, thin bodies, but their toes are all mashed up from years in the pointes.
  10. Sorry, that's all the pictures I have - 1 pictures, and it's from her business's website. She lives in Tulsa. I moved to Tulsa married and left single. KA-POW! She loved Tulsa and stayed. The truth is, once you got past the sex, our personalities were different. Sex can only take you so far in a relationship; you need good Mexican food as well. And, someone who can keep a house clean in their free time. And, have dinner waiting for you when you get home from work.
  11. It's really difficult for old, white people to accept that the country is not the way it was in 1958. I know of a few that are highly irrational about today's opinion. The world is what it is. If America has become full of freeloaders, that's just the way it is. My life remains the same today as it was 24 hours ago. I feel sorry for people who wrap themselves up in the political.
  12. Now that we know his Mexican background, we need to worry about whether UTSA and UTPB will steal him. UTEP also. Lots of Mexicans there.
  13. I'll have my wife chat him up in Spanish to see if he's a real Mexican.
  14. So, replace the Redskin with a tax-free cigarette stand or casino!
  15. I have two opinions about the opinion: (1) I already buy health insurance, so the tax would not apply to me anyway. (2) I sell health insurance, so it will be good for my business. (3) I saw the Scorpions last night at Verizon with Tesla as the opening act.
  16. “Yeah, f– Reagan,” Mr. Hart said. “Ronald Reagan has blood on his hands. The man was in the White House as AIDS exploded, and he was happy to see plenty of gay men and queer people die. He was a murderous fool, and I have no problem saying so. Don’t invite me back. I don’t care.” Uh, huh...because it's scientific fact that it's Reagan fault that pysiologically the anus is not meant to be used as an entryway for anything - penises, gerbils, whatnot, etc. It's Reagan's fault that misuse of the body will cause disease and health problems. I mean, come one, everyone knows the guy had the power of God. It's also common knowledge now that Reagan, that dolt actor from Illinois who stumbled and bumbled his way from poverty to Hollywood to the White House, developed a vaccine to cure AIDS, but he kept it secret and took it to the grave with him. Wow! What man of power Reagan was, possessing the ability to change the course of human physiology and holding the pharmacuetical secrets of life and death! No wonder the gays get so mad. There'll never be another SuperHumanMan like Reagan!
  17. The problem is that none of it is cost efficient. When the windmill thing came up here, we figured it would take many decades for the project to break even. I can't remember how long it was, and am too lazybusy to look it up again, but it was pretty much that we'd all be dead by the time it worth the money. But...never let common sense economics stand in the way of a government-funded project, right?
  18. My wife is Mexican, and few of her parents' old, old photographs (dating as far back as the 1970s and earlier...I mean, really old) show people smiling. My wife tells me it's because the photographers would tell them not to smile. So, when you see old pictures of Mexicans not smiling, it's not that they're unhappy to be Mexicans; they were just following the photographers orders. My wife's family are really very happy people despite what old photos might lead you to believe. Gang tackling. We need more gang tackling.
