  •  Abut time!  Now what about the current oil spikes.  It certainly isn't supply and demand.  Just Big Oil greed, deep pockets and trickle down going into spineless politicians.  A class action lawsuit for all of us affected would be just punishment and determent.

  • Think how much more valuable union teachers, firefighters, maintenance workers, etc etc are. And of course people like me, a veteran non-union EMT living paycheck to paycheck and not making it. And these people collect mucho bucks for wallowing in greed and screwing up the economy.

• Housing crash hitting cities thought to be stable

• Tell-tale letdown: Poe visitor again a no-show

  Wed Jan 19, 2011

  • Right now it's just time to think of the killed and injured and their families. And then the sad state of affairs that would bring someone(s) to the brink of commiting this tragedy. We have become a country of haters, bigots in an increasing violent and galvanized society.
