So to make the pun, it's the only game in town
I miss ex... I gues this is a preview of things to come.
Do you know something I don't ? Ex is still making moves on the baseball league and contributed here 2 days ago.
Look under his name where it used to say Expert. Can't say any more.
Well that doesn't sound good.
One week.
Supposedly the lung puncture healed before he played Monday, but I'm still undecided on whether he can take it to the next level. Obviously not with the receivers he had Monday and a center that keeps hiking the ball early and off target.Quote:

What, you haven't received an "infraction" yet? I imagine I'll be the next to get suspended for not holding my tongue.Quote:

No telling how much revenue is tied up in contracts for maintenance and up keep, especially during the season, and the vendors and providers, and my gosh the parking!!
During the Super Bowl, every shop, church, and business was selling parking places, and shuttling people all day long for the game. Its big bucks for sure during a down economy, and I can see where the owners want to not only make the bucks a new stadium brings, but also not share some of the profits, hence the strike threat by the players. Glad that's over.
Ex is a good dude and I think he is busy, but will be around. I know what you mean Steve, about being deleted and threads closed LOL, been down that street a few times myself. And Miles Austin will be back Sunday... I hope. Him, Dez, and Whiten at the same time should help Romo against the Lions.
But we better start arguing again on subject or this one will get closed... AGAIN :eek:
Yes he's a good dude but he would very much like to be around but he's not allowed to.Quote:

Energy Department approves $1 billion in solar energy loan guarantees
Maybe they can give the ex-Solyndra employees a job until they go belly up.
Obviously he's been suspended by the principle.Quote:

But not to worry... The Obots have a plan. Now
Government Motors is going to partner with the Chinese ( export jobs and taxpayer funded technology ) .Eventually the plan will be to build ALL Volts in China even if there eventually is a US market for the pig. (yes it's a pig... it costs $41,000 and what few sales they have had is because the government chips in your tax dollars to the tune of $7,500 in rebates ) .And of course the Chinese demand that if you do business in China you have to surrender to them your propriatary technology to them .
In this case GM's partner is the Shanghai Automotive Industrial Corporation (SAIC) which has already "partnered " with GM before they lifted the technology and began selling their own brand of auto in the Chinese market.
They even are getting another Obama crony involved... Govenment Electric . In return for buying the Volt for their Chinese operations ,GE will partner with GM to create a pilot program to build "charging stations" in China.
Holy crap, I didn't know about that but it seems to be true. It's not policy just yet and GM is fighting it: Chevy Volt's eligibility for Chinese buyer incentives hangs in the balanceQuote:

It goes further than that. They have a virtual monopoly on the rare earth raw materials and are more and more insisting that instead of exporting it;that companies open up manufacturing there ;where the same terms apply about 'technology sharing ' .
China?s Rare Earth Metal Monopoly Pays Off | Economy In Crisis
Of course much of their monopoly is in occupied lands like Mongolia. And of course there is no need for them to have such a monopoly except that nations that also have an abundance of rare earth metals will not permit the mining of them.
That latest government investment in solar energy to the tune of $737 million to create 45 jobs I mentioned? Some interesting beneficiaries there. Ron Pelosi, brother-in-law of Nancy Pelosi, is the executive director of one of the investment partners, Pacific Corporate Group.
What a coincidence.
