Volaris, Avolar, Alma de México take over flights from TIjuana
Johnny, I've been driving into Mexico for ten years now. Never even been pulled over. I have friends who have, of course, but my point is, it's not universal. BTW, it 10% of the people who own 90% of the wealth.— April 24, 2008 10:27 a.m.
Will SDPD target the Rocket Pop Street Artist?
I love this: "Bronzed food — have you ever seen bronzed food? It looks exactly like rotten food, only grosser than the real thing." Hurrah for the RPSA!— March 19, 2008 2:39 p.m.
The Secret

The Secret
Whoa, mike. You're bumming our lysergic acid diethylamide trip. What about that other party's support for 40 million babies killed in their mothers' wombs? (And that's just in the USA) You see, neither the left nor the right wing has cornered the market on death for expediency. Barb, your Dad is a beautiful man. His gentle fatherly love for you was so poignant in that letter. He's an inspiration and support to me in my role, my mission as a father. I will pray for him and thank God for creating such a beautiful soul. As for the Secret, I'll say what I think is good about it. It turns people out of themselves a little bit so that they can see there's a great big "universe" outside of themselves and their messy garages. And once they've turned out, they notice the beauty and suffering -- and, to get a little mystical, the beauty within suffering, e.g. children with leukimia -- around them.— March 19, 2008 11:04 a.m.
Two Prostitutes
Josh, My tax advice is get married and have kids. My seven kids are a joy, and they also represent a $7000 tax credit. And, from what I understand, I may get a further $3300 rebate as part of the recently passed economic stimulus package. It would only be $1200 w/o the kids.— March 19, 2008 10:35 a.m.
