  1. No kidding, I sure hope we can break that streak!
  2. Too bad the PG did follow through with his commitment to Centenary, from watching the U-tube video he definitely has some passing skills.
  3. I'll be there with the wife.
  4. Stats Looks like Johnson and Thompson really filled it up. 6-11 behind the Arc is not too shabby. The 9-25 assist to turnover ratio is unsettling. Thompson was leading assist man with 3. We are going to better ball movement and less turnovers to compete in the belt.
  5. No Colin Dennis and Howerton over Tramiel is a surprise. Has Dennis not looked good in practice?
  6. I'm pretty certain there is a law against calling for violence against a President...which I believe his statement implied. It might not hold up in court, but if he hasn't broken that law he is walking a pretty fine line.
  7. Sorry I guess I missed the part where either the Democrats or Republicans, McCain or Obama, adovcated violence against a race of people.
  8. I was trying to agree with you, sorry if that wasn't clear. There's a reason I'm an accountant and not a writer...
  9. I think most teams have rules that involve conduct detrimental to the team. With the large number of African-American (or I can call them black player, since you have an issue with the phrase African-American) voicing statements such as the one he did would have an impact on team unity, something any coach would not want to deal with. Additionally with the implied violence in his statement, he broke federal law.
  10. Honestly, I think his post showed what kind of person he is. I could honestly care less if he said racist things, that's his right to be an uneducated fool. I still wouldn't want him on my team. What I take most exception with is the get your guns portion of his statement. To me that implies that he would like to see someone do physical harm to the President, which is completely unacceptable to me.
  11. I'm pretty sure he means that marriage should be seen as a legal matter between two consenting adults, no matter what gender, but I could be wrong and don't want to put words in his mouth. I don't have a problem with anyones church deciding who should and shouldn't be allowed to wed there, I do take issue with the government and other people deciding that two adults can not be legally wed.
  12. Hmmm, I'm not even sure how that's possible. Good for you, the best solutions probably come from somewhere in that range - I just can't bring myself to move that far to the right!
  13. That was fun - put me right where I thought I'd be on the little graph thing.
  14. I sincerely hope you are kidding. I don't care if this guy is good, think of what it could do to team unity, let alone fan support.
  15. Unfortunately for you and the 53M others (now 55.4M), 62.5M think Obama represents what this nation stands for.
  16. 90% of African-Americans voted for John Kerry - was it because he was black?
  17. You get the same amazing business opportunity e-mails? I thought I was special!
  18. You are probably right, I won't believe what this lady has to say. I am always leary of anonymous posts on the internet such as this and I hope others would be as well. If this was ligit (and maybe even if it wasn't), I guarantee it would have gotten more play (Fox News maybe?).
  19. Can you get me a link to this stuff? I'm interested to hear what the four new payroll taxes are.
  20. So what would we need him for then? I saw another guy in a black/grey letter jacket with TE as well. Don't think it matters who was there tonight, if we continue to play the way they are they might look elsewhere.
  21. Or this: Q: Finally governor we've been trying to engage some local grade schoolers for the last few elections. We do a feature called ‘questions from the third grade.' Brandon Garcia wants to know, "What does the Vice President do?" PALIN: Aw, that's something that Piper would ask me, as a second grader, also. That's a great question, Brandon, and a Vice President has a really great job, because not only are they there to support the President agenda, they're like a team member, the teammate to that President. But also, they're in charge of the United States Senate, so if they want to they can really get in there with the Senators and make a lot of good policy changes that will make life better for Brandon and his family and his classroom. And it's a great job and I look forward to having that job. She doesn't even know what the role of VP is. It's to be ready to take over should something happen to the President and to break ties in the Senate. Officially, that's it. Of course the VP provides advice to the President, but their role is not to set the legislative agenda of the Senate. I think the only reason people are even talking about Palin is that some people are affraid if she and McCain are elected, she will eventually become President. I think the polls I have seen reported on the NBC and ABC news have shown that more than half of Americans believe she is not qualified to be President. As to spending so much money to attack her, I have not seen adds attacking her. I've seen ton of adds taking McCain by Obama/approved by Obama, but none attacking Palin. I hardly think having the RNC spend $150K+ on her clothes or having the state of Alaska foot the bill for her childrens travel is something the common man can relate to.
  22. The opposite of this? Couric: You've cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as part of your foreign policy experience. What did you mean by that? Sarah Palin: That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and, on our other side, the land-boundary that we have with Canada. It's funny that a comment like that was kinda made to … I don't know, you know … reporters. Couric: Mocked? Palin: Yeah, mocked, I guess that's the word, yeah. Couric: Well, explain to me why that enhances your foreign-policy credentials. Palin: Well, it certainly does, because our, our next-door neighbors are foreign countries, there in the state that I am the executive of. And there… Couric: Have you ever been involved in any negotiations, for example, with the Russians? Palin: We have trade missions back and forth, we do. It's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia. As Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where do they go? It's Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, Russia, because they are right there, they are right next to our state. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/09/25/...in4479062.shtml
  23. I read the article and it seems to indicate that the plan is still to redshirt Rucker.
  24. Somewhat agree. I worked anywhere from 30-45 hours a week through undergrad and grad school to make ends meet. You do what you gotta do to make it, I think alot of athletes have that mentality.
  25. I am an accountant ...the answer to the question would be not always. If the corporation pays no income tax, whether through a loss, tax exemptions, loopholes, or through "operating" from the Cayman Islands any money that does not leave the business will not be taxed. If the corporation chooses to keep the profit as retained earnings it will not be taxed until distribution to the shareholders. Strictly speaking C Coporations, which would be typically your publicly traded companies does not have income taxed as individual income as it belongs to corporation. The only taxation at the individual level would be when dividends and capital gains are taxed.
