  1. I'm not an economist, but from I remember of my history, the Great Depression that tretched from 1929 to 1939 was actually a double dip recession, with four years of "recovery" in between. While Europe is causing concern abroad, the political paralysis in the U.S. is tempering their recovery and growth. As far as Wal-Mart goes though, they're dip in sales may also be a result of a bit of backlash in the U.S., as many people are unhappy about how poorly paid their employees are.
  2. Where would any of us be without our moms? The saints who were usually one step behind us, picking us up when we fell, wiping away the tears when we hurt and kicking our butts when we needed it, all without asking much in return. To all the moms out there, a sincere and heartfelt Happy Mothers Day!
  3. Magneto, beuse you always found yourself cheering for the kid who survived the Holocaust lashing out at authority when he had the power to. Lex Luthor- a normal mortal who schools Super Heroes with his cunning genius and relentless scheming. Darth Maul was visually brilliant and I was severely disappointed he only got something like 7 minutes of screen time (in the worst Star Wars film, no less).
  4. I bet a few more ladies are considering attending now that you've offered cheesecake lol. I don't usually attend the social, but if you're bringing cheesecake, I may just have to reconsider myself!
  5. I'm sure the number of ladies who have expressed gratitude to him for his sentiments indicates how much he and his attitude are appreciated. His sentiments echo a number of previous threads as well as feelings a good number of people have for the ladies and their integrity. Mocking him isn't going to make you any friends.
  6. Best of Luck Tasha and Congratulations on your pending marriage.
  7. Most likely. Allow me to pay Dr. Cooper a compliment he may not have any academic qualms with-Dr. Sheldon Cooper, Supreme Chancellor of Global Scientific Research and Achievement.
  8. To paraphrase a popular show, everyone's a geek. t just depends what you get your geek on for. I've heard fantasy sports leagues described as D&D for jocks. It just boils down to your preferred tastes and, in high school at least, your fashion sense. Having said that, Dr. Sheldon Cooper is God.
  9. Not sure which impresses me more, the cop's composure or the octaves that driver can hit during a temper tantrum. If he wanted extra money to pay for the ticket, I'm sure with a voice like that he could have auditioned for a job with a boy band.
  10. Words are impotent in the face of such enormous tragedy. The best any of us can hope for when explosions of such reckless waste and loss erupt is that the sacrifice of tender innocence purchases enough wisdom to protect tomorrow's children. This is beyond anything any of us can imagine, but the hope that we learn something, anything, should not be beyond anyone. Otherwise those lives were lost for nothing.
  11. Going to the Santa Claus Parade with one of your favourite people, followed by a nice brunch.
