  1. Welcome, gthegz. You can learn a lot and have a lot of fun here.
  2. Hi, Chica. Welcome to GA. There's a lot to read here as you have already found and lots of new friends to make.
  3. Welcome Vonfoto and W E. Enjoy!
  4. Welcome, Bulwark! Why not tell us something about yourself in your Profile? Otherwise we will think you are merely Odd.
  5. Happy Birthday, Dave!
  6. Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=y8MZlK05Cg8
  7. Scots vote "NO". New York Times article.
  8. But, they look so normal.
  9. If Scotland secedes, will HM the Queen still feel welcome at Balmoral Castle? Will she be required to have a visa?
  10. Well, we used to remember December 7 every year with the same intensity. Now there are a lot more people who were living and remember September 11. Give us another 60 years and we will move on to something newer.
  11. I'm not a big movie goer. And since I'm retired, I don't notice the seasonality of movies. I think the movie industry has really hit the skids in recent years. The worst people in the industry have to be the script writers; they seem to have such a limited vocabulary that they keep on using one word repeatedly. TV is no better, but we expect the summer to be slow. Except for a couple of edgy dramas like The Bridge and Tyrant, I found nothing of interest the last three months.

    CATS!

    You will also love LOL Cats.
  13. My vision of the future includes no politicians. You may laugh, but I invite you to stop and think about the breath of fresh air that would bring. That would result in anarchy you say? Our politicians' "deliberations" are anarchy. Seriously, I agree it is unfortunate that we can't discuss politics here. Politics is important to us. I have found that we can't even joke about politics because someone may be offended. It's a bad day when politics keeps you from having a good laugh. There is so much to laugh about. Thanks, Adam.

    New Beginnings

    Congratulations on your new situation. More money and less challenge is always better than less money and more responsibility. Perhaps your job seems easier because you are experienced and headed for a higher position. You should take on socializing as an additional responsibility. It will get you noticed and be appreciated by your colleagues now and when they become your subordinates. Best wishes.
  16. Healthcare is an important factor and having government provided/subsidized care can be a plus. If tax burden was included in such rankings, the results might be noticeably different.
  17. Snob! Just kidding. It is your birthday, after all. Have a great one!

    Rip: Trebs

    Farewell, friend. I will miss you.
  21. Thanks to all who took the time to send me birthday wishes. Every year that passes is a milestone and every friend is precious to me.

    Age.....

    Thirty-two is not old.
  23. Yay! Welcome back, CJ. There've been no cliffhangers around here while you were away. What's your next project?
  24. Well, there's the definitive word on CJ's status. Or is it? We won't know for sure until the next time he posts.
