Tony Wright was first in line at 5:05 a.m

awaiting for the Grand Opening of the first Wal-Mart in Chicago


The 41-year-old postal worker said he gave little thought to critics who say that Wal-Mart pays poverty-level wages and drives competitors out of business.

"All that big stuff they talk about is just over the top," he said, adding that he was happy that Wal-Mart was bringing jobs to a community in need.




at the end of the day....we vote with our wallet.


Is it disingenuous to complain about the effect of "Big Business", while patronizing the very same business?


just curiousfrustrated

Reality TV?? Whats your take??

I agree!

I have wondered this....

kinda the chicken and the egg question...

do they keep making reality shows because that is what people want to watch?

or

do people keep watching reality shows because that is so much of what they want to make?



when to bar was set by the actors on friends the price of production entertainment became unreal.


An entire season of most any "reality" show, can be produced for less $$ than a single episode of most prime time episodic series.



things that make me go hmmmmmm? doh

Reality TV?? Whats your take??

a show that runs 7 years is up for syndication......imagine a dozen channels devoted to all the scripted "reality" shows.

Nic @ Nite I think rocks

It appears we are destined for "Your Sick Alright"


bummer

Reality TV?? Whats your take??

Agree 100%. I love the disclaimers they display:


Certain scenes that did not affect the outcome of the competition may have been edited for dramatic intent? What the heck does that mean.


Or the other one that I LOVE....which trail spontanious shows like Cash Cab, state that some contestant have been prescreened?

what the heck does that mean? how do you prescreen and/or prequalify someone who is depicted as spontaniously presented with the format....
ie cash cab...(lights a flashin...oh my i am so surprised...what is this funky cab all about? oh my this is a game show? wow I am surprised...after being prescreened...)

Reality TV?? Whats your take??

Exactly!!

But they have been around....like 10 years?

Just dont get it.

Reality TV?? Whats your take??

Reality TV shows have been around far longer than I thought they would last.

Whats your take on them? More specific, the one like, blind date, elimadate, wife swap and one someone told me is new....what i hate about you?

Then there are all the fear factor, survivor, amazing race reality formats that are not directly formated around relationships

Big Brother...

the list is long....just wondering what your take is on them....


thanks for reading and offering your opinion.

RE: What do YOU do for a living?

My daughter is a chocolatier. I am awed and amazed by the skills of those like you and she. Truly an Art!

Do you specialize?

RE: What do YOU do for a living?

I am a philanthropist

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

cant say i ever really tried....

I've had a couple tandem bikes....

even had a few unicycles....

but never really explore the 3 wheel option.

something you may consider is a 3 wheel come along.

Ever noticed someone jogging while pushing a "stroller"?

When I was doing bike/camping adventures I had one....

they rock!!!! kinda like a trailer hitch on your car, they hitch to the back of your bike....hardley even know they are there.

RE: I want to know how many musicans we have out there?

I would really like to find a way to get my daughter interested in her music again.....

She is AAAAAAAmazing. She first starting playing guitar when she was in 6th grade. Acoustic,Les Paul electric, 12 string acoustic, 12 string electric, violin, banjo, electric violin



man oh man....she is just amazing.

then one day she stopped......that in my heart was the day the music died.

God, how I miss listening to the music she made.

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

Brother, I sure hope you do it!

Looking back I am overwhelmed by that I enjoyed when I cycled on a regular basis.

Not only do you get all the "health benefits", which I dont disount for a second.....but man oh man the world looks very different when your seeing/experiencing it from a bike.



I have stacks of photo albums from my days of cycling.

I hate running.....it bores me and wears on my joints but riding....I am getting excited just thinking about riding again.

RE: NFL week 3 update

another chapter into oddness


the falcons lost
the giants were simply schooled

Brett goes over 400 TD's a true milestone (unlike some guy named bonds in another sport), all the while there are enless questions about his coming back this year

a probable hall of famer watches as his son gets beat on....although no hits inparticular has parts of his body removed

some dude named SAY OW! recently thought to be in his waning moments (read this Brett Farve) who is a force not be to be discounted (as he always has been)


Lets not forget the mad skills of that Cat named Shannohan...who can dismiss any "name" player cuz he got "THE" system.

while another Cat named Marv.....who is at least twice, but as much as 4 times as old as the testosteronian he is again leading from the sidelines....


This is gonna prove to a very interesting year.

I think maybe the most interesting since the inception of the salary cap.






in my humb le opinion of course

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

thank for such nice words.

I am looking for someone to be my sailing partner. I have quickly discovered that I need another to sail with me....my boat it appears is best when more than one sail her.

hope that will be soon......but cant say for sure


Along the way......I do know that my critters need to be fed and cared for. So regardless of my own accord, I must get to market every couple of days.


So in the interim if any one is searching for a "nagging parter", you know what I mean, someone that you will bug a bit to stay on path and in return (if you have the need), to bug you a bit to help you keep on task.

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

Your still just chain yanking ain't ya?

such a kidder

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

well thank you kind lady!

i keep trying to get my pic back up.


as for the that application....your just yanking my chain aren't ya. If I were to type in that address and find nothing I'll feel foolish...but if I don't type in that address and there IS something there, I'll feel foolish.

alas the quandries that life presents.....keeps my mental juices flowing if nothing else.help

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

I would be interesting in applying for the position

if it's still open.

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

I have a Lexus SC430 convertable....does that count?

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

Fix the Jeep....maybe with a fuse??
hmmm now that might be the answer

but the auto parts store is about 6 miles from me....

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

Reality can sure pop the bubble of denial.

I'm committed...to reestablish my fitness routines....

as long I as dont talk myself out of it...



frustrated frustrated doh

I just discovers how out of shape I really am...

Has something like this happened to you?



I eat a very healthy diet...thought I have been pretty active...my weight is well within the healthy BMI....

But I just discovered how out of shape I really am.


For some reason my Jeep decided not to start this evening. I was going to the market to get food for my dogs. Since the Jeep did not start, I jumped on the mountain bike and headed out to get my critters some dinner.


The market is only about 5-6 miles away....I just got back home and thought I was about to just fall over and die......

OMG, I never for a second thought that a short bike ride was exploring the limits of my current fitness level.


I gotta get back on track!


thanks for listening!

RE: spagetti squash how to make it

bummer!

wish I had planted some...because they are not even at the farmers market or the grocery.

wonder why yours did not come this year?

RE: spagetti squash how to make it

Accorn squash can also be prepared the same way.....I think Accorn squash is tastier than spagetti squash tho not as fun.

another squash thought...

have you ever had a zucchini burger? They rock!

RE: you think you know your music?

wow....I listen to some obscure bands....but I dont think I've heard them.

RE: you think you know your music?

RE: you think you know your music?

Ooops, I am kinda cixelysd at times.

RE: Necesito su ayuda por favor

In context with taxes....I think your correct.

Just got word from a friend in El Salvadore.....

just asked how an orange could be confused with a tax return..

he said....it is not an orange it is your better half...your partner..
he then asked....is this a joint return??

RE: Wounds That Will Not Heal....

I am sorry for the pain that has been suffered. I also admire those who have found the strength to share such pain and move forward with your life. I yearn and pray for the day when I can do so as well.

Thank you for sharing your words. They offer hope and inspiration.

RE: Wounds That Will Not Heal....

A wonderful book!

A good place to start when your trying to figure out how to move on and begine the healing.
