Rob, in all seriousness, if you want to get on a jury, you gotta register to vote.
wow that is stupid. so essentially because im a political protester and a moderate anarchist, i cant be on a jury!? LAME! however after hearing what the chairs are made of i dont think id want to be on a jury duty anyway

when people are put in subordinate positions like that they dont like being talked to, especially by the dominant party!

rob, I am quite aware of the difference in our positions at this point in our lives. It was she who was curious about us and started blabbing. Some people, I suppose, would have just told her to get back to cleaning. At least I tried to show an interest in her. And as always, I offer to host if they come to NYC.
And in spite of Mrs. D’s protestations, that difference has made it so uncomfortable for me that we don’t have a cleaning person here. Up there, because I rent the place, I have no choice but to employ a cleaner, who, btw, gets paid $33/hour.
denton’s got it right, DCB. The market is worried that there isn’t going to be a recovery. Employment numbers still bad. The world is running to Treasuries for safety.
besides with the internet, you can go anywhere you want without actually having to be there, so travel is essentially moot and pretty much only done for show and bragging rights these days.

Yup, when I have the urge for a vacation, some great food and an all around nice time, I log onto the internet and go there in my mind.
Or even better yet, in the words of Harry Chapin…”I go flying so high, when I’m stoned.”
Since they are citizens by definition, shouldn’t everyone there be able to understand a reasonable amount of English?
“Is that because the market thinks the Fed has it right or because the market thinks the Fed has it wrong and is afraid of what they will do?”
Because the market doesn’t like that the Fed has to do something at all. imo.
i also find it terrible denton that you just sat there yapping about travel to a 20 year old upstate hillbilly while she dusted your picture frames :-/ when people are put in subordinate positions like that they dont like being talked to, especially by the dominant party!
