    Wanna know what I really love?

    Brian, Ian is correct. You may well have a case. You should contact EEOC and see what they say. It may take a while, but they will give you an audience. On another note, go after a new job as if it's your real job. Don't rely on just internet postings. Use your contacts and don't be ashamed to...

    Did this really happen?

    Al, +1 on the Saudis. Wahabbism (sic) is what started the radical Islam movement and it was started and supported in Saudi Arabia for over 25 years. Garry

    100MPH head on hit!

    I have a friend of mine who has done crash simulations on computers for years (primarily used in litigation cases). It's his opinion that any crash above 90 mph is not sustainable in a commercially available car, period. The forces are so great that even if the safety cage survives the impact...

    Gulf Oil Rig Disaster

    Cliff and Kieth, I agree with the both of you. Ultimately, BP is going to get stuck with the payout. However, I do believe that BP's insurers will try to implicate the subcontractors for some of the fault. I also agree that Transocean will disappear if there is too much financial pressure put on...

    Go Navy

    Pete, We used to do this on my ROTC crew. The trick is to find a squad or two of men out of hundreds that have the eye-hand coordination to execute the moves. Not to be smug, but we did these types of moves eveyday, including practice for funerals. Garry

    European honeymoon advice please

    Alan, +1 on what you said. However I do agree with David that Bologna has some of the best quisine in the world. It seems that the best chefs in Italy ended up there and even the local trattoria's are excellent.

    Any sailor out there?

    If you want speed the cats are the way to go. Tampa Bay sailing an 18ft Hobie with my best friend from the service in front of a hurricane. Winds at 35KTs gusting to 45. We hung on for dear life with one rudder in the water and us standing on the other hull parallel to the sea about 12 inches...

    European honeymoon advice please

    Rich, I concur with Dalton and David. Take a train. It is a wonderful way to travel and much more civilized than planes unless you have access to private aircraft. Besides, you can look at the countryside and feel that you have really seen how the locals live. Garry

    Medicaid and Texas

    The first rule of thumb today is don't believe "breaking news" in todays fast paced news cycle. Wait until the story has been through a couple of cycles and has been tested by more scruntiny. Then you will get a picture of what is really happening. In the rush to tell a "breaking news" story...

    Any sailor out there?

    I have sailed HobieCats when I lived in Florida. I am trying to get my wife to agree on buying a good used Dolphin or Catena over 45 feet and chucking the problems in this world for a few years while sailing around the world. She's not a sailor but more of a power-boat gal. Who knows, I might...
