Someone who calls himself NJ JEDI KNIGHT considers ME “juvenile”! I wonder how old NJ JEDI KNIGHT is? 12? Or is that his IQ?

GRIM
Just wanted to tell you your old foe Warren Boroson couldn’t debate you with facts so he resorted to name calling like a juvenile at his blog towards you instead.

324 Broken:
Thanks for the memory jog…found this on your link and it’s the money quote I remember from a show:

“homeownership is a great achievement and a terrific investment. My message is simply to make sure you can afford it before you take the plunge. Once you determine you have the ability to cover all your housing costs, I say to go for it.

In most markets, homes appreciate at about 4 percent a year. Let’s say you buy a home for $200,000 and put 10 percent down. That’s a $20,000 outlay. If your house appreciates 4 percent, that’s a gain of $8,000. So you just made $8,000 on a cash outlay of $20,000; that’s a terrific 40 percent return on your investment. And on top of that there’s the tax write-off for your mortgage interest and property tax. As I said before, I don’t think there’s a better investment out there, and we haven’t even factored in the priceless emotional gain you get from owning your own home. “

Are you still in Philly? I haven’t been in weeks, though I am going to Bucks on Saturday to buy a rifle.

Kettle,

Found someone selling a Mini 14 with suppressor, scope, and 8 30 round mags. Totally illegal in NJ but at 700 for the lot, I was sorely tempted. Not risking disbarment over what to stock for TEOTWAWKI. Will stick with basic ranch model.

SAS i disagree,

how do you bail out airlines? you would have to nationalize them 100% as they cannot make money with oil over about $80. That goes way beyond a bailout.

Then again china might be interest in a cut rate deal!

“the airlines are just as dead as citi and wamu”

yup, I agree.
that is why I proposed the question the other day on the boards:

So, whom is going to bail out the airlines?

MSNBC is very biased for Obama. Here’s someone who’s hiding his college thesis. Here’s someone who wants to go the Germany to gather crowds. MSNBC and Brian Williams are actually running this guy’s campaign.

This is very premature. I wish Bush was running again. There’s really no one to vote for.

John (256)-

“Trick is you go to a wide open space in a park and tie the gun to a few helium balloons and stand up and shoot yourself in back of head. You fall down, gun floats away and it looks like a murder so you get life insurance.”

Thanks, John. You just wrote the last scene to the screenplay I’ve been working on for the last 20 years.

I’ll be sure to mention you when I accept my Oscar. :)
