Sort of.

I was watching CSPAN early this AM. It was a meeting taped from 11/13. The sub committee was discussing the economic impact on healthcare and biomedical research.

The Texas representative gave his opening statement, and used a football analogy to talk about issues in healthcare insurance..."Through the NFLs plan, if a football player is traded from somewhere to Dallas, his insurance goes with him. If a fan of that player moves to Dalls, his insurance does not and he has to start all over in a new state."

The next representative, also from Texas, gave his opening statement and began

For that Brown Fella elected a few weeks ago, a puzzle is how Detroit's auto makers should be reshaped by the hand of government, with a taxpayer bailout or by letting bankruptcy judges take charge? Both fixes have their supporters, BUT I AM TELLING YOU RIGHT HERE, neither would really solve the industry's essential problem.

Here's a better idea, one you haven't heard before, involving a contemporary curse word seldom used in the debate over the auto makers: "deregulation."

No, Washington wouldn't have to find the courage to amend the labor laws to end the Big 3's captivity by the UAW.

I just checked the prices for the Borgata concert on Feb 13 and I almost fell over in my seat. 96.50! I am by no means poor, however, in order to take my son would be a 200.00 night. Last year, I bought them as a Christmas gift ..unless memory has failed me...I don't think I paid that much for them. That's such a shame...we have seen Kid Rock everytime he has come in our area...we all enjoy his music and never miss when he's in town...but 200.00! That doesn't include dinner, gas to get there, since I live in PA. Awwwhhh...so sad and disappointed right now.

okay this is a parenting story. My 18 yr old met this girl. He brought her home briefly the other day. I can overlook the face piercings, the dyed hair, whales tail...whatever. On the front a pretty and petite teenager. But WOW what an attitude. Okay so she looked pretty young so I asked her age. She wouldnt answer me directly. She lives with her gram (she didnt know I knew her grammy at the time). Tried to tell me her gram was fine with dating. So I put on the pressure and told her I wanted a direct answer.

HOPE ALL HAD A GRREAT WEEKEND!!!
