Keep us informed, and don't forget to post the results of the investigation. Although somehow I doubt it will happen...

Nobody is being disrespectful (or hateful, or whatever - geez...). However, i don't see why we can't discuss the crash itself - it's not like we walked into a wake, pointed at the coffin and started yelling "it's your fault!"

News like this are just part of new campaign launched by the Dems for Nov elections. Expect more 'sudden' good news that are supposed to make people feel better, like BP leak is stopped (behind schedule, but who tracks that), unemployment goes down (by o.oo1%, but who cares about the details, it's all about the title!), people are back to shopping (no mention it's just delayed demand), etc. etc.

We participate in PTA and frankly speaking it's better to have PTA than not. PTA organize a lot of activities that schools won't have otherwise. I guess some PTAs are better than others, but that's another issue. Obviously, I'm not surprised WTL as a democrat hates PTA. He'd rather do nothing and expect things to happen somehow. Keep dreaming, loser.

I've actually asked one of the boat owners there few weeks ago and he said it was free (unless you stay overnight, although he wasn't sure if it's allowed at all). You can consume alcohol onboard, although gotta have a designated 'operator'.

Is there a law or smthfg that would force people to move cars to their driveways and not to park on streets? I know there are snow emergency signs for major roads, but what about local/community roads? It would make snow plowing much easier and complete.

Opening this topic just for the sake of balance, since Obama lovers like to selectively post only news favorable to POTUS.

Gwen, I've sent you my account info, but geez, have you guys even tested your website? I wanted to check my statement, but it doesn't show up (I use plain Win 7 & IE8). You'd think that since I save Cox few cents every month by not asking for paper statement, you'd make it work at least as a gratitude to your customers...

I saw some LED lights marked "Warm white", they're suppose to be much closer to incandescent than those marked "cool white". I wish the LED manufacturers would just list lights temperature in Kelvins (~2700K is the closest to incandescent) like they do for CFL bulbs.

I have to admit, the Cox customer service is really good, but: I only know this because I've lost count how many times I had to call them due to problems with my digital cable! Luckily Verizon guys are coming to my hood in the next few days.
