Georgia has quite a few "de novo" banks with State charters, mainly entrepreneurs in the housing bubble.
One, based in Gainesville, started by a group including the current Lieutenant Governor, got quietly eated by SunTrust a year ago, no doubt to prevent him any embarrassment.

I love that libertarian comment thread, because it's all so true!
Road spending by governments is an inherent evil, as any thinking person knows. Wealth is only created by private entities; governments can only spend wealth. The best environment for business and wealth creation therefore is one with no government spending at all.
That, of course, is why Somalia and Sudan, the top two on the "failed states" list, have such high standards of living and such vigorous entrepreneurial communities!

Bush: Laura and I gave up entertaining because of the Iraq war.
During an interview yesterday with NBC News’s John Yang, President Bush offered his reason as to why he and his wife Laura haven’t been “big entertainers” at the White House over the years:
BUSH: We’ve had a lot of fun in this experience. We haven’t been a real social first couple. A lot of it had to do with the war. There were periods of the presidency where it was just inappropriate to be big entertainers But we had a lot of friends and family here in the White House and its been really a lot of fun.
I'd like to be "Paramount Chief of Fiji." Sounds ... exotic.
The UK Royals are very popular in Fiji. Prince Charles birthday used to be a national holiday there until they decided they had too many national holidays and got rid of it. (Having Prince Charles birthday as a national holiday is a sure sign of having too many national holidays!)
I will stop bothering you for now, SB.
You aren't bothering me!
Elizabeth II also holds a variety of other positions...
This reminds me of what Queen Victoria said about the conception of all of her children: "I just lay back, looked at the ceiling and thought of England."
I was once on a road trip through the South with a friend. Old guy at a gas station asked where we were from, I said "Well, I'm from Pennsylvania, and he's from Germany." Old guy said, "Yeah, I could tell you was Yankees!"

US county sets 'Barack Obama Day' as new holiday
MARION, Alabama: A small central Alabama county whose mainly black residents gave Barack Obama more than 70 percent of the vote on Election Day has created an annual holiday in honor of the president-elect.
The Perry County Commission voted 4 to 1 to observe the second Monday in November as "The Barack Obama Day." County offices will close and its roughly 40 workers will get a paid holiday.
The sponsoring commissioner, Albert Turner Jr., said the holiday is meant to highlight the Democratic president-elect's Nov. 4 victory as a way to give people faith that difficult goals can be achieved.

Bush couldn't spend much time in the White House entertaining, because he spent so much time in the air going to and from Republican fundraisers, lifting the wallets of his "base... the haves and the have-mores." It might be the only thing he did reasonably well over his eight years in office.
That, and vacationing away from the White House. Add up the time for his travel for fundraisers, time spent fundraising, and his vacation time, and this President was the biggest fuck-off of all time.
Think of all the additional damage he could have caused if he'd actually applied himself to the job....

The motor vehicle and parts industry, a sector of the economy that has been particularly welcoming to African Americans, is becoming a shrinking island of prosperity. The share of black workers (14.2%) in automotive industries is much higher than their overall share of the labor force (11.2%), as shown in this Figure. Approximately 118,000 African Americans worked in the auto industry in November 2008, down from 137,000 in December 2007 when the recession began.

According to court documents, Smith, who is now 53, and Lewis had been in a relationship for 18 months at the time of the slaying. The two had even lived together for a time.
In September 2006, Lewis returned from a trip to the Philippines and broke some tough news to Smith: He had met someone else whom he planned to marry.
"Smith reportedly did not receive this news well," a detective wrote in court documents.
...
At some point, Smith learned that a woman she knew, Thanyarat Sengpharaghanh, was going to meet Lewis for dinner. On Oct. 6, 2006, Smith called Sengpharaghanh and advised her that Lewis was fond of Jagermeister, and liked to have a drink before going out for the evening.

Have the members of Governor Carcieri’s Blue Ribbon Panel for Transportation Funding been cleared by Butler Hospital? The criteria for committal includes determining whether the person (or persons) represent a danger to themselves or others. The thinking of this panel clearly represents a danger to all Rhode Islanders. They are locked into Marxist Socialist thought: The State owns everything; and they just take what they think they need.
Try this thinking, Blue Ribbon Folks, "Stop spending". If roads are a priority of the State (and they should be) take the monies necessary from somewhere else in the budget. NO NEW SPENDING. NO MORE TAXES.
You are killing the economy. Read some history: Socialism had NEVER worked. Not one time. Not ever. It has consistently ruined the economy and the social structures whenever and wherever it's been tried. No exceptions. So stop with this looney thinking.

JetBlue got us to JFK at 2:30 as scheduled. The plane to Santiago is waiting for us at the end of the jetway. 8:00 scheduled departure, arrives in Chile around 8:00 EST tomorrow AM.
It would have been nice to get a later flight out of Burlington, but there were none with safe connections.
At JFK we walked, rode the little train, walked some more, had a nice lunch, walked, checkied in for the flight, walked, had coffee, walked and are now sitting.

Can't do time zones when travelling. Arrive 8AM Chile time, which should be 6AM EST.
The term chat room, or chatroom, is primarily used by mass media to describe any form of synchronous conferencing, occasionally even asynchronous conferencing.

Palin's Secret: Victoria's Secret Is On Her Latest List of Shops
The Houston Chronicle ^ | December 05, 2008 12:17 PM | Richard Dunham
Victoria's Secret is Sarah Palin's secret no more.
Politico reports that the Republican National Committee made purchases on behalf of the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee at the sexy lingerie shop. The Victoria's Secret expenditure -- along with even more purchases at Texas-based Nieman Marcus -- were among the newly released expenditures uncovered by Politico. Ditto a visit to Escape Skin Care and Day Spa in New York.
Edible panties for Sarah and Bristol.
Fourlegsgood: don't get me wrong; I grok good editing (by myself and by professionals); it's just easier to work with a decent skeletal structure. Like how much easier Liz Taylor's plastic surgeon had it than, I dunno, Rodney Dangerfield's.

You may have seen my last post a few days ago...maybe not Anyway, I've always wanted to try it Straight, curious,attractive (see last post)
Even got a suggestion that I should microwave it first(excellent tip)
I settled with a cantaloupe, as watermellons are out of season. Which was alot smaller, but suitable for 1 person. (Fun for 2 I would imagine as shafts would rub against eachother on the inside)
Used a condom, didn't wanna gets seeds in my shaft. Nuked it up nice an hot, and cut a perfect hole. Waited for it to cool off just a little bit...it was hot, didn't wanna burn myself. Laid a towel on my bed and inserted myself into a super wet and warm mellon. It was totally amazing.
I eventually made it to the shower because it was getting really jucy and slightly pulpy, but really mantained its firmness. Definately better than at least 1 or 2 women I've been with.

Model Bettie Page hospitalized after heart attack
By JAMES BELTRAN, Associated Press Writer
Friday, December 5, 2008
(12-05) 17:14 PST LOS ANGELES, (AP) --
Bettie Page, whose magazine photographs in bikinis and see-through lingerie helped her become one of the most notable models of the 20th century, was hospitalized in intensive care after suffering a heart attack, her agent said Friday. "She's critically ill," Mark Roesler of the Curtis Management Group told The Associated Press. He said she had the heart attack on Tuesday and was hospitalized Friday in the Los Angeles area. A family friend, Todd Mueller, said Page was in a coma. When asked to confirm, Roesler said, "I would not deny that." Roesler would not comment further on her condition.
Page, a secretary turned model, is credited with helping set the stage for the sexual revolution of the rebellious 1960s. She attracted national attention with magazine photographs of her sensuous figure that were tacked up on walls across the country. Roesler said CMG has represented some of biggest celebrities over
the decades, and that Page has been "one of our biggest clients. She's right up there with Marilyn Monroe." Page's photos included a centerfold in the January 1955 issue of then-fledgling Playboy magazine, as well as controversial sadomasochistic poses. She later spent decades away from the public eye, and during that time battled mental illness and became a born-again Christian. After resurfacing in the 1990s, she occasionally granted interviews but refused to allow her picture to be taken. Mueller credits his business dealings with the model for bringing
her out of seclusion. He said he first met her in 1989 when he offered her "a bunch of money" to show up at autograph signings. "I probably sold 3,000 of her autographs, usually for $200 to $300," He said. "Eleanor Roosevelt, we got $40-$50. ... Bettie Page outsells them all."
I hope the depression is over by the time my 4 year old starts looking for work.

Auntie, Cobb salad sounds lovely. I understand the former Brown Derby made a lovely one.
I managed to eat there once; it closed shortly after I moved to Los Angeles.

supposedly she is 80 in that picture.
Cobb salad sounds lovely. I understand the former Brown Derby made a lovely one.
It was divine. I enjoyed it thoroughly. While not the same, the Hamlet's Chop salad is rather close. But I admit, I make a Cobb exactly the same way that the Brown Derby did, because I have no creativity in such things.
Happy pre-belated to you, then, Sallyh! 53's a great age for a woman -- Lyricdancer has 21 more days of it before her BD.
I hope the depression is over by the time my 4 year old starts looking for work.

If only Bush had a few more years he could have repealed some child labor laws.

Again, of course.
Bush may still repeal some child labor laws: pretty sure 4 of the Supremes think the New Orleans case about the constitutional right of children to work long hours was wrongly decided on federalism grounds.

Hey any of you read about the kid who was kept chained up in a garage and tortured?
In a jailhouse interview with KGO-TV Wednesday night, Lau said Ramirez had told the couple to discipline the boy the same way she did. Lau admitted in the interview that she hit the boy on five occasions in the stomach and arm and used a baseball bat to hit him in the knee.
Ramirez heated an aluminum bat in a fire before searing the boy's flesh with it, Lau said in the interview.

I'm not altogether sure what Indiana, North Carolina, and Virginia going blue after four decades means as far as what those voter want specifically, but grave dissatisfaction with the Republican party's track record in those states is probably an easy takeaway.

Here's your Friday night fucked up kink:
Two former Hilton Minneapolis employees say they saw executives of the hotel having a drunken sex party in a banquet room and their complaints about what they encountered cost them their jobs.
The allegations, which the Hilton denied Thursday, are made in lawsuits filed last week in federal court by Deborah Smith, 43, of Coon Rapids, and April Bezdichek, 25, who now lives in southern California.
Smith, who was night manager of the hotel's Skywater Restaurant from April 2006 to December 2007, contends in her suit that she was subjected to "unwelcome sexual conduct" and retaliation for going to management, then eventually fired.
She alleges that she opened the door to a hotel banquet room and saw "an orgy involving Hilton upper management."
"She saw various Hilton executives inebriated and engaging in sexual acts," the suit continues. "In fact, she observed Hilton executives on top of a table engaging in sexual activity."
Hey all ... just got a call from "the Al Franken campaign" (read: DSCC or DNC) trying to raise money for the recount.

Not according to Scramble.
I read some stuff about how in the second term Reagan turned around all his first term stuff. He raised taxes, he talked to the "evil doers" in the evil empire. These were the things that the RW seized upon that re flexed his "greatness" the fact that he flip flopped on them is not relevant. If I cared enough I would find out about all the times Ronald Reagan defied his own pronouncements just to throw his legacy in their faces Bush did what Reagan didn't, he keep cutting taxes and now look where we are at.

Reagan was the weird uncle upon whose lap you never want to sit.

Are you "nasal cleansing?"
(Or as they say in the doctor's office "nasal douching")
I have persistent sinus things and I usually have to do it during the end of the run or I get an infection. It's uncomfortable, messy and noisy, but it is effective and recommended by my brilliant Acupuncturist.

I've never had a sinus infection.
I just "self-discovered" that I may have an issue with my gall bladder or kidney stones.
Since I've got this fucking joke of an HMO, even as HMOs go, I don't know where I can see a doc that won't cost me another 100+ bucks out-of-pocket. I've gotta eat even more cash to find out whether or not I should go to an ER or some urgent care center that will still cost me big time.

You know I'm glad you brought that up.
I think that it is very clear that the current Church is not pro-torture.
And I also think that because of their past record of torture they should be able to say, "Hey, that was wrong and we know better now." I like to give the Church credit for lessons learned and things that they got right.

stop talking about diseases or i'll get 'em all.
So here is the new line. "People who are born in Guam show up in Hawaii and present a baby and they get a certificate of live birth in Hawaii. Then they get citizenship."
This is very troubling! We really need to look at the Kerning on the certificate of live birth.
Saint Agatha, born in Sicily into a wealthy family,was martyred in Catania in the year 250. Knowing that her life was consecrated to God, magistrate Quintanus used the anti-Christian edict of Emperor Decius to arrest her and then attempted to violate her chastity. Agatha firmly resisted so Quintanus had her breasts mutilated and severed. Legend says that St. Peter appeared and completely healed her wounds. Later, the frustrated Quintanus had her rolled over live coals and she died just as an earthquake struck, causing the magistrate to flee the city.
She is the patron saint of breast cancer, breast disease, earthquakes and fire. Her feast day is Feb. 5.

You may be right. What happened with me is, I started getting swollen lymph nodes maybe six weeks ago. They gradually got pretty huge -- while I was trying to deal with a family emergency in a different state, conveniently enough. So I got some antibiotics. The swelling has gone down, to an extent, but it's not gone, so they want to repeat the dose.
But I dunno...it just feels like a virusy...the weakness and tiredness, especially. Sound like what you've got?

It's a U.S. territory.
And people born there are U.S. citizens.
In 1950, the U.S. Government enacted the Guam Organic Act, conferring U.S. citizenship on the people of Guam and establishing local self-government.
But I dunno...it just feels like a virusy...the weakness and tiredness, especially. Sound like what you've got?
Yes, plus sore throat, swollen sinuses with a lot of congestion, intermittent chills and sweats (especially at night).
It's been hanging on for at least 2 months. I feel like I'm finally kicking it. So I guess it's not fatal.
was Obama a bastard child? Was his mom married to his father?
Cheney's and Bush's mothers were married to their fathers.
