Well, I'm glad someone is keeping their eye on the ball.

However, the price of pussy will always considerably higher be in the US than other countries, but take heart.

. . . Bangkok is still a bargain in that department!




And, I was opening a second economic collapse would drive down the price of pussy. So much for market dynamics. Originally Posted by LexusLover

I happen to ardently believe that this country is indeed on the road to prosperity, but I'm sure the panhandlers that I see shivering on the street asking for a handout do not see it that way.

. . . I am guessing you might fall into that second category and nothing I say will change your mind and frankly, sir, I have no reason to persuade you otherwise!

Did you see my quote out of a recent SS report published by the govt that said "once the recovery is complete the economy will slow down"?

Unemployment has been approximately eight percent for four plus years, and you think we're on the road to prosperity? When inflation starts to kick in and the interest rates skyrocket, you'll probably be giddy with delight.

What's your strategy for personal wealth? Run up all your credit cards to the max and take out a second mortgage on your house?

But you being from Houston, where there are already a lot of panhandlers on the streets, should stake out your spot now, before all the good spots are taken.

Has anyone other than me noticed that when StupidOldFart is losing an argument he will always resort to the (fill in the blank), "you are an idiot" card. Originally Posted by bigtex

Apparently the House will be voting on the Senate bill in about an hour. Numerous sources say that it is expected to pass.

I would imagine the House Repubs now wish that they would have given stronger consideration to Boehner's Plan B. In hindsight it probably looks much better to them than the Senate bill they will be voting on. We will see in an hour or so whether the Senate bill passes both Houses of Congress.

Here's your card, BigTurdLittleDick.
The House vote is going on now. There is 7 minutes left to vote and the numbers are 126 in favor and 80 against.
The Fiscal Cliff Bill has now passed both houses of Congress. John Boehner and Paul Ryan voted for the bill. The final tally in the House 257 in favor-167 against.
