  1. Thanks all!

    AWeeJig...since you know me to be the antithesis of everything in your birthday wish(well...except hallucinogenics)I can only conclude that sobriety has made you a giant, flaming pansy. :) Love you Brian..see ya Friday!!

    Tim..please let Jennifer know that the cat...who never dropped her damnable moniker but was shortened to "Snuggles" is very well.He takes particular pleasure in sitting on things at my eye level and swatting me in the head.He is also very loud...he fits right in.

    :)

    good to know that it's a good fit. he sounds like most of our also crazily named cats...

  3. The person in front of Meyer (tasered guy) was told he would be the last person to speak, Orlando said. Meyer said he was upset with that, so Kerry gave him the OK.

    When he took the mike, Meyer then asked Kerry several questions. On amateur video linked from Meyer's website, his questions included why Kerry conceded in the 2004 presidential election, why not impeach President George W. Bush now, and whether Kerry was a member of the Skull and Bones secret society at Yale University.

    When reminded that he was only supposed to ask one question, Meyer responded in the video ``He's talked for two hours. I think I can have two minutes.''

    Members of the student group sponsoring the event summoned UF police to escort Meyer out, according to a police statement. At first, students can be heard cheering as he is asked to leave.

    But Meyer refused to leave, police said.

    When officers tried escorting him, he resisted, and officers only partially got handcuffs on him, according to police.

    By then, officers had moved Meyer to the back of the auditorium, where he was on the floor, Orlando said. Officers told him to stop resisting, and when he still refused, they used the stun gun, Orlando said. On the video, he can be heard screaming at that point.

    Meyer was then put back on hisfeet and taken out of the auditorium, he said.

    At one point in one of the videos, Meyer says, ''Why am I under arrest?'' and ``They're going to try and kill me.''

    mayybe this will become standard operating procedure for anyone who asks more than one complex question in a public forum.

  4. Going diesel may be the best option.

    i have a naive question. what exactly is better about diesel? it certainly can't be the emissions because they are horrendous (honestly' date=' I dont know how any diesel car would pass a regular emissions test). so, is it just that you generally get better mileage, and therefore use less gas? or, is it something in the way it is refined? inquiring minds want to know ... :)

    [/quote']

    less energy input to refine the fuel and better mileage combine to make diesel a slightly less evil choice. the exhaust that comes out of a diesel tailpipe is chemically much cleaner or simpler than gasoline vehicle exhaust. not only that but you can run a diesel engine on a variety of oil products from biodiesel to straight vegetable oil.

    the original question was about a hybrid...i have a friend who owns the escape hybrid and seems quite pleased with it no idea how the advertised mileage stacks up to reality though.

  5. Shop owner Mack Murray said Trenton's proposed ordinance unfairly targets blacks.

    "Are they going to go after construction workers and plumbers, because their pants sag, too?" Murray asked. "They're stereotyping us."

    The American Civil Liberties Union agrees.

    "In Atlanta, we see this as racial profiling," said Benetta Standly of the American Civil Liberties Union of Georgia. "It's going to target African-American male youths. There's a fear with people associating the way you dress with crimes being committed."
