OK, last one. But it's a loooong one.
Three Years Quicker
You might remember, a while ago, I said we're going to cut the deficit in half over a period of time. Well, we did so quicker than anticipated -- three years quicker. And now we've submitted a new budget that shows how you can balance the budget by keeping taxes low, within five years. And here's the logic, and here's the reason behind such a philosophy: Low taxes encourages economic growth. Economic growth, it turns out causes there to be more tax revenues coming into the treasury.
yup, lol.

"Beef tenderloin, or eye fillet (New Zealand and Australia), is cut from the middle of a cow. As with all quadrupeds, the tenderloin refers to the Psoas major muscle along the central spine portion, which more or less hangs between the shoulder blade and hip socket. This muscle tissue does very little work, so it is the most tender part of the cow. The tenderloin can either be cut for roasts or for steaks."

OT Conserving Water - Residential
If gray water is starting to gain public acceptance, the Greywater Guerrillas are staying well ahead of the mainstream.
I'm sure this point has been made before, but it would be nice if the media stopped referring to all the VIP trips to Iraq as "unannounced visits", as though they were somehow spontaneous or otherwise special. The reason they are unannounced is, of course, because the security situation in Baghdad is so hopeless that an "announced" visit would seriously jeopardize the safety of the VIP in question. ALL visits to Iraq are unannounced, and that should be understood as further evidence of the our failure in the war after four years of trying.
Lyndon Johnson didn't have to make unannounced visits to Saigon. And look how well that turned out.

I noticed this yesterday. An "unnannounced" trip to New York, London, Paris, Berlin? Who cares?
But only an idiotically suicidal public official makes an "announced" trip to Baghdad. As I said yesterday, you KNOW it was "announced" to the troops, so the VIP could have sufficient bodyguards acting as human shields for his ignorant ass.
