Agreed.

But, we would start off far apart and end up closer together that you might imagine.

Sorry I'm a little late. You all made good points, I enjoyed reading.

I like my company on the attached chart. And I really like that I'm exactly opposite of W.

About the clunkers for cash. I forget who said it but it was something along the lines of it will only benefit people who are getting ready to buy anyway and people with disposable incomes, my wording may be far off. But my point is that I saw a Nissan advertisement for the Versa normally a $9990 car but after $4500 (i'm assuming clunker rebate) that makes that car worth only 5490. Which is crazy cheap. Unless you are very poor most people could afford to finance that for 5 years.

The clunkers may very well be a bad gov't program but compared to the bank bailouts it doesnt even make a dent in the current gov't spending be it the war or bailouts.

and yes I hope this does start another debate.

There was No just cause for bombing Iraq in the first place.

Hey BigGreen,

A Nissan Versa for $5,490. . . . . I'll believe that when I see it! I don't know the details of the Cash For Clunkers program, but no way is someone going to be able to purchase that new car for $5,490! THAT would actually help some of the low-income population. . . . and we KNOW that ONLY the wealthy get the breaks!

I hear ya, and I'm not trading in my Accord to find out. But it was on the internet so it must be true.

Now for deej, I promised him an apology, well basically because he deserved one big time.....I chumped him on the call out on this thread......he deserved better.

But that is done, except for the deej factor.

What ya want deep....your call???????????/
I actually sent you an apology in a PM and I didn't hear back, so I figured you were still mad at me. The last thing I want is for anyone on this site to be mad at me. I usually don't care what people think about me, except my friends and ...well.......that's what all of you are, my friends. FM you know what I am talking about, so its all good man.
