God Bless us all in this decisive election cycle. If you support McCain, you are labled as uncaring, cold and war mongering conservative. Support Obama, you are cool, ultuistic and filled with hope for change. Support Hillary, you are old school, racist and willing to accept mediocrity.
Schenectady is so far away down route 7-it's like a day trip. I feel as though I need to pack a lunch and plan dinner just to get to a show at Procotors (which does ROCK!!).
By suspending the tax for three months, the government is doing the American public a huge disservice by delaying the inevitable sticker shock. This is a populous cause, based in grass roots with no economic basis. What happens to the maintenance of the roads during the three month suspension of revenue? Where will the money come from to pay for maintenance? Payroll Taxes?
There is nothing like crawling up to the warmth of a good ol' loved book with its worn, thin pages enjoy and binding coming undone due to having read the book over and over again(my persnal favorite A Tree Grows in Broolyn). At times, it is nice to have the option of hearing another persons interpretation of the same written work which is what books on CD allows. The tonal inflections, pauses and rhytem can change the tone of the written word; opening open ones mind.
