Cat Hiccups and Farts at the Same Time ========== And I thought I was the only one who had this problem.— June 9, 2010 11:34 a.m.
Grand Jury Says City Should Consider Bankruptcy
Psycholizard, my deepest apologies to you, and even deeper apologies to the Colonel. I should have been more respectful in making those insensitive remarks. The truth of the matter is the Colonel IS a great American success story, redemption against the longest of odds, in the twilight of his life. The opposite of our current Mayor. I have done the Colonel a great dis-service by comparing him to the 300#+ Orca we currently have serving as mayor.— June 9, 2010 11:27 a.m.
Oh where oh where can he/she be?
Oops. I apologize for the above remarks. SP is not annoying =========== Thank you Rocket-your previous post had crushed me, sent me into tears, but now I am once again proud to call you "friend" :)— June 9, 2010 9:12 a.m.
Oh where oh where can he/she be?
FYI: I am the sock puppet of no one. It is just me - my own little Drambuie - addled self. =================== Well then, since you're no ones sock puppet-CARRY ON!— June 9, 2010 9:10 a.m.
Hyatt Hotels Wants to Take Over Manchester Grand Hyatt
Burwell, if that's true, why would HHC want to take control of it? Are they speculating that the value has no place to go but up? ========================= CA hotels are at their lowest value in decades. Don has posted about the values in some of his bog pieces, and Alan Reay of Atlas Hospitality Groug in Newport Beach- the leading hotel brokerage firm on the west coast- says the same thing. It is a buyers market. Don is correct, the return of value is a long, long way off. Although I have my doubts as to any firm in America who has deep pockets in this economy. Even MicroSoft doesn't have the deep pockets it used to have.— June 9, 2010 8:17 a.m.
Farmer Seth
You don't need any shenanigans from me to make yourselves look like idiots. You do a pretty great job on your own. I'll leave you to it. ================= Thank you, I try hard :)— June 9, 2010 8:10 a.m.
The death and attempted suicide of Ginger and Frank Bass
He was determined, and a restraining order is only as good or strong as the paper it's written on. ================== A protection order is useless . . . these types of men will hunt you down and kill you if you try to leave them ===================== Very true, and this is why I think people need the right to carry a firearm, for situations like this, where your life is in danger and the only person that can protect you-is yourself. And although it happens less frequently, it is not limited to men (can you say Betty Broederick or Lorreta Bobbit)— June 9, 2010 8:10 a.m.

Grand Jury Says City Should Consider Bankruptcy
I remember you standing up for Michael Aguirre and making the same kind of worthless claim about him prevailing. ============= Hey, I can't be right all the time. But mark my words, the BK is coming, and you better save some of that pension cash b/c it will be taking a haircut in BK court. OH-Don't tell us, you're a public employee. Can't fool us :)— June 9, 2010 8:04 a.m.
Paean to Jerry Dominelli
BTW surfpuppy, what's the significance of 5-13-99 =============== Actually I left out an imnportant reason for using 1999 with mny DJIA comparison, that was the year Calpers passed SB 400, whch was the retro active pension give away that created the 3%@50 pension. Calpers said in 1999 that their investments would cover the costs of SB 400, and that the rising stock market would cover the majority of those costs. Acording to Calpers the DJIA would be at 28K by 2010. So in the context I used the 1999 date-it was directly tied to a claim made by Calpers, a claim that has been thoroughly discredited, that the pension system would pay for all the largess doled out as political favors.— June 9, 2010 8 a.m.
