Am I correct, by watching all the crime dramas, that all law enforcement offices and buildings are ultramodern with the finest of decor and design?

And there are maybe two patrol cops left in any given city since all other personnel are now part of ultra elite units focusing on the most enigmatic and devious of criminals and crimes?

And no cop is allowed to wear a rumpled trenchcoat anymore or they appear on Mr. Black's poorly dressed cop list?

GravatarFWIW, I never could figure out how Cheez Whiz became the signature topping at Pat's and Geno's (order in English only!), the two best-known steak sandwich purveyors.

I guess "cheez" you can squeeze is more efficient if you're cooking up mass quantities of steak sandwiches. But the irony is that these joints are in South Philly, a traditional Italian -American enclave. The locals not only "know" cheese, there's no lack of beautiful serious cheeses sold in the Italian Market area, just a Whiz bottle's toss away!

Why yes. Yes it is. And it will not be fun watching probably half of our 20% equity, even at that price, evaporate in the next 12 months or so. This market was seriously overpriced and you can tell. There are neighborhoods everywhere with house after house that look like they has been taking steroids daily for the last decade. The one we're bidding on is not like that. It's a totally unpretentious 1,900 sq ft 3-2, built on a .4 acre lot. Most of the properties in that neighborhood are similar.


GravatarOT: Gordon Brown was severely criticised by Vincent Cable today for allowing the "super-rich" to avoid having to pay their fair share of taxation.

Cable, the Liberal Democrats' Treasury spokesman, condemned what he described as "our spineless government" for allowing the rich to enjoy tax breaks not available to the poor.

"The idea that the super-rich should be elevated above taxation is immoral and deeply insulting to those on modest incomes who pay their full whack of tax," Cable said, in a speech to his party's spring conference in Liverpool.

The Liberal Democrats would make the so-called "non-doms" - foreign workers who enjoy tax breaks - pay full taxes after seven years of living in the UK, he said.

And, in a surprise move, he called for VAT on fruit juice and smoothies to be cut from 17.5% to 5% - funded by a £225m increase in taxes on alcohol.

Cable, who as acting Lib Dem leader famously joked about Brown's transformation "from Stalin to Mr Bean", said that he was "genuinely saddened" by the way he believed the prime minister had abandoned his commitment to social justice.

Gravatarthe Grim Reaper is still on hold - Baroness Thatcher has left hospital after being admitted for tests.

The 82-year-old former UK prime minister spent the night at St Thomas' Hospital in London after falling ill at a House of Lords dinner.

Her spokesman said she felt "giddy and queasy". However, she waved to photographers as she walked to a waiting car as she left hospital.

In 2002, Lady Thatcher had a series of minor strokes and was advised by doctors to stop making public speeches.

A spokesman for Lady Thatcher said they thought it best to take her to hospital for tests after her "legs buckled" at the end of the function.

GravatarBob Herbert, giving Obama the kind of advice a lot of posters here would give him:

Mr. Obama’s strength was his message of hope and healing, the idea that he could bring disparate groups together to work on the nation’s toughest problems. That has gotten him this far, which is much further than almost anyone expected.

He now needs an added dimension. He needs to articulate a vision. He needs to spell out to voters where he wants to take this country over the next few years, how he will alleviate the suffering of millions trapped in vicious economic circumstances and what he will do to restore the honor and prestige of the U.S. around the world.

Political campaigns are not about fairness, but they can often be about vision. Voters want more from Senator Obama.

He may not be able to close the deal with, say, working-class whites, but he more than anyone else has the eloquence to try and make a compelling case. He should go for it.

GravatarSecurity forces in Iraq have found a mass grave containing about 100 decomposed bodies.

The grave, discovered in Khalis, north of the capital, Baghdad, is one of the largest such finds in several months.

Iraqi and American officials said it was not clear who was responsible, but the grave may date back to sometime after the 2003 US-led invasion.

A US military spokesman said the bodies were mainly skeletal, indicating they may have been there a long time.

Iraqi army officer Major General Abdel Karim al-Rubaie added that the victims were beyond recognition.

"We can't identify them," he told AFP news agency. "There are just bones in there. At the moment we have left the remains in the grave itself."

There's no telling what political affiliation your children will be.

We may have killed more conservatives.


GravatarOK, between Ruth and I, we managed to get her excellent post on how the feds and PHARMA have managed to turn the Hippocratic Oath on it's head published.

Unfortunately, we can't access the blog to be sure.

Perhaps NTodd was right: blogger isn't worth the aggravation.


GravatarHoot!


GravatarYou can't possibly believe that she is alive.


She looks like a fuzzy box cutter.

yeah, and now we have another vile steaming vomitous pool of puss just like them posting here. i honestly don't know what is wrong with people, why do they enjoy being hated so much? what joy does it give them?

it seems to me that life is fucking hard enough without having to deal with these heartless, soulless jokers. fred phelps, hates amerikkka, hagee - they're all the same. there is just no acceptable reason for them to even exist.


Gravatarnew thread, if you can get there


GravatarIf somebody could post the thread link, that would be great.


GravatarWell if that isn't hard hitting investigative reporting. Illinois Republican takes swipes at Illinois Democrat. Weather due to warm soon in Northern Hemisphere, Cooling trend expected in Southern.

Jesus Christ.


GravatarJP Morgan says we're only halfway to the bottom of the housing decline. I think they're wrong. We're only about a third of the way down. They say banks face a systemic 325 Billion dollar margin call. Again, wildly over optimistic.

GravatarPittsburgh is in fact a very unemployed place.

There is a smattering of scab "IT" jobs but for the most part the South Indian egghead Carnegie Mellonhead graduates leave immediately upon graduation.

The fried out older suburbs are chock full of ancient white trash who fancy themselves "bikers"; unable even to score halfway decent drugs, they drink crappy beer and sit around blaming the n*ggers and queers for all of their problems.

Attempts to gentrify Allegheny County (it passed Dade County FL as the oldest population in the last census btw) have been largely stymied by the oppressive tax burden created by a shrinking population and the incredibly inefficient crazyquilt of local governments.

For example, I live in a "township" near Butler; I pay five separate local tax bills (township income tax, township school tax, county school tax, county property tax, and a separate school tax levy I just discovered i am five years in arrears to, not knowing it even existed.)

This is for the privilege of having my nonexistent children schooled with quaint Khrischun mythology, and that's about it. Potholes are knee deep, fire and ambulance service is extra. We don't even have a county board of health.

Meanwhile the locals are extra proud of being Amurrican and continually vote in a slate of the laziest, most corrupt scum in the country (e.g. Phil English, our "representative.") Environmentalism and again, the n*ggers and queers are put to blame for everything, including the price of gasoline. The local newspapers are full of the most horrendous, Gothic news imaginable, people setting retards on fire and injecting themselves with gasoline. Most of the yokels read the Scaife rag, the "Pittsburgh Tribune Review." They move their lips when they read.

So be thankful you live in Philadelphia, and ignore the demographic misconceptions.
