The Goat Pen

You conveniently ignored my last line - about how my generation is going to get screwed out of our promised full benefits, and I'm planning for that sad fact (and assume others are as well). I hope your planning does not include a Roth. http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2011/05/roth-iras-...

I guess she's with him now. I suppose that is what Anna wanted anyway since she LOVED her husband so much.

21k a year...pfft. You probably made that much last week.

I wish.

We've talked.

You conveniently ignored my last line - about how my generation is going to get screwed out of our promised full benefits, and I'm planning for that sad fact (and assume others are as well). Because there'll no doubt be "adjustments" made to the program similar to what you wish for. The w...

When the door opens, do we really want to see our children.. presenting us with that check? The children that we centered our whole lives around and who we gave the very best of everthing we could give to? And who stand to make out like bandits when we kick? Those children? Goodness no..

when solar cells hit the 35-40% efficiency range then they will be acceptable - 40 - 50 years maybe?

I have no idea

Solar electricity generation has gotten much more efficient in the last ten years Sooooo....if we say, doubled solar and wind generating capacity tomorrow, that would account for about 3-4% of the US energy needs. Probably not even that much. I would like the technology available such that solar pa...

You still would have had to beat a team much better than FSU in the MNC game. Geno saved you from that embarrassment. The 2007 BC Eagles, were a team of future NFL all star football players. Matt Ryan, Ron Brace, Dunbar, and Herzlich (pre Cancer) would have ass-raped Ohio State in the MNC. Florida ...

You... just worry about Ohio State.

Solar electricity generation has gotten much more efficient in the last ten years. There are a lot more solar panels here in Phoenix than there were when I moved to this part of the country almost a decade ago....

They aren't "close" but they are getting better.

FU, F Geno.

I had $200 on BC to win the MNC at 150-1. Geno cost me a 2008 Corvette.

But I do agree the 07 BC team was very good.

Yeah.

One less Ryan interception, they were playing Ohio State in the MNC for the National Title in January of 2008, (and not LSU).

Shag is a horrible movie that I hope none of you ever have to watch, but Phoebe Cates looks good in it... When I think of that Shag movie, it reminds me of that truly horrible movie Where the Boys Are '84 with Lynn Holly Johnson. To think that at one time not too long ago (at the tail end of the fi...

There was a particularly poignant moment in that movie...a pool, Phoebe Cates, Cars "Moving in Stereo" Poor Judge Reinhold. I think Phoebe was only 17 years old when she filmed those full frontal nudity scenes in that Blue Lagoon rip-off movie Paradise with Willie Ames. I think they had t...

So you think we'll give Boise and BYU half a pie in return for a slice back? The University of Texas makes all the rules in your conference, all of them. If they want BYU and Boise, rest assured, you will be adding them. BYU and Boise add $17,000,000 to the Texas pie. They know it. You know it. I d...

Are you kidding? $$$$$$$$$$

$17,000,000 says they MUST add BYU and Boise to get to twelve. They can't stay at ten teams. They lose too much CCG money.
