Well, That didn't work.

Sorry.....must be above my computer skill set.

Loria,

Tried making it bigger for you also.....here it is again

Sure....it came out of an article by Adam Geller (Associated Press). Our paper the Daily Press ran it Sunday, but I just spent about an hour looking for it....no luck.

But I did find it here http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081025/ap_ ... the_wealth

Loria,

Here it is from the IRS......maybe it will be clearer in this view

Lulu....siding with Cypressgirl for a bit....look at this graph about WHO PAYS TAXES. The point is....the system, while unweildy and horrible to deal with at times.....already taxes those that are capable of paying the most more. The "little" guy is getting the break already. http://img.vi...

Good Grief.....is that me standing in front of the Rum Punch Stand reaching for a welcome beverage?

No....just looks a lot like I look once I land there.

1. A. Schwarzenegger/C. Powell (wasn't born here....but hey who was right?)
2. C. Powell/Sec. State Condelisa Rice
3. Bill Gates/Speaker Pelozi
4. a whole lot of other people....
840. McCain/Phalin
841. Obama/Biden
842. a whole lot of other people....
3450403. Clinton (either one)/Homer Simpson.

Got to love this dialog...... Two quick comments. Jan and Mike (great to be from VA isn't) Having a day off to vote is stupid. Most hourly workers can't afford it and do not want to....Employers like you guys simply can’t afford the additional revenue loss at the moment....why would Obama call for a...

Let me echo what everyone else is telling you. I lived in Temple Texas (about 1.5 hours north of Austin up I35. I visited there often with my family for dinner, shopping etc. My corporate Headquarters is in Houston, and I get out there to various parts of Texas on business three four times a year. (...

Okay....I have to agree with all of you....it is getting cold. In fact, it is so cold this morning I actually debated going down to the dinghy and getting the outboard off of it for the season.....but then I decided no...better wait.....might want to take a few more trips without moving the big boat...

Loria and Sox, I have to tell you both...I think the present administration is dead wrong about spending in science research. I hope that whoever wins moves the spending higher on both basic and applied research. Up until two years ago I was a Managing and/or Principal Scientist for Battelle Memoria...

Lex,

These jobs are in Government contracting.......some of them are sort of like the more liberal social programs.

Hey Lulu.....is that the official party stance? I think some of my acquaintances down here in VA think it actually is. (Yeah....I know....I have some real redneck acquaintances.....) Half of them like everything you stated in such a tongue in cheek way, and the other half go absolutely nuts in anger...

Soxfan...try this little experiment in your workplace. Walk up to a black man and say, "hey my boy!" (Then duck). Then, walk up to a different black man and say, "hey my man!" Report back with your findings. Pete, I live in Hampton VA. 50% black population. I can't tell you how ...

Thanks for letting me ride along!.......I am just catching up on the forum and it is fun to start getting back into the whole "St. John" attitude again.

Good pics too!
