First off I want to give my condolences to all those families that lost loved ones in this tragedy. It is not easy to suffer such a loss. What I do hope is that the families that lost loved ones in this tragedy do not try and find someone or some organization whether private or More

Excellent point, James. However, by the time I got to this story here, the comment from Mr. Swagler was gone. Strange...
In another report from the AP, an observer had a similar comment but spared the "third world" swipe. In the article, the person said:

I still remember when a sumo wrestler was WWF champion. He was managed by Mr. Fuji. I think that was the farthest the sport ever penetrated the American conscoiusness.

P&G doesn't seem to care about US consumers, when there market share is growing well in BRICs economy, which has almost half the size of the world's population.
As far as US consumers are concerned, I do think that they do make really good stuff compared to their competitors More

So, if Americans aren't good savers, we take the money from them anyway ... and let vote-buying politicians spend it on other things ... like Vietnam and Iraq? Must the "guvment" always be there to hold our hands and wipe our runny noses? Freedom to succeed or fail ... it used More
Boeing Stock

This makes me feel like buying some Boeing stock. God bless 'em for their patriotism.Boeing 787 will rule the world, eventually. Boeing has a superb track record of starting slow but being the Best. It is fuel efficient and lighter (made of a composite fuselage)

My family comes from Scotch-Irish Presbyterian migrants who settled in Ohio in the 1790's. I gave up on the PC (USA) several years ago. Where have all the Presbyterians gone? They've been driven away as the homosexual lobby takes over the church and church doctrines; encouraged More
