WASHINGTON, Jul 09, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) — At a town hall meeting in
Georgia this morning, presumptive Democratic Presidential nominee Barack
Obama told an audience that, "you need to make sure that your child can
speak Spanish." Speaking in Powder Springs, Ga., the Illinois Senator said
that the nation’s chief priority should not be for immigrants to learn
English, but for American children to learn Spanish.

How many miles between plug changes does it indicate in the service manual
for a 2000 4Runner V6?

Thanks in advance.

Hillary has been screwed over royally by her own party. First they waited
until the last primary before showing any support, and when it became
apparent Obama was going to take the popular nomination they all ran to
him like rats from a sinking ship.

But that’s OK; she will be listed as a candidate for nomination Monday,
and I think Barack will get a taste of what the Democrats are really like.

…maybe he could find a few moments between pretzels to pick up his
princess phone and get crap like this fixed.

why the hell aren’t they down in Florida protesting Bush’s failure to
control Fay?

Will the at least go down and spout hot air to help dry it up some?

They didn’t come out to California to protest the forest fires either.

I am really not surprised though.

The news media is parked in front of his house.

How come Obama is announcing so late in the news cycle? His announcement is
looking like noon-ish on the East Coast so the West Coast supporters will be
up when the news comes out. The Sunday Morning TV Talk Shows will have a
hard time, maybe, lining up the guests to discuss the pick.

The Mrs. and I watched the episode where Charlie has the Support Group over
for single malt scotch and fine cigars. The episode had Sean Penn, a guy
with a guitar that I can’t name, and a guy that I say is Al Pacino.

The Mrs. says it wasn’t Al.

I have the name of the guy with the guitar on the tip of my tongue, but
can’t quite get it out. I’m thiniing Boz Scaggs, or somebody like him.

Yep, I think McCain is a himbo.  Grampy McSame gets a stipend from
Cindy.  The bill for the "help" (read – servants) is 273,000 a year.
That’s more than grampy makes as a Senator.  No wonder he has to cash
his social security checks.  AND he doesn’t know what kind of car he
owns/drives.  AND Cindy takes care of all the expenses.  This guy is
like a pool boy.

OK, I’ve had it this week.

Tuesday the band has practice. I stopped for my 5th cup of coffee for the
day on the way there, and had to drive down Main Street from there.

When I got to where I turn to go to the drummer’s house, there was a Honda
Civic, all the way to the left against the double yellow line, no turn
signal, waiting for the light to change. I pulled up on the right, put my
turn signal on, and waited (no turn on red at this particular light…)

The light turned green, but there was a line of bicycles crossing the
street and the Honda and I had to wait for them. They cleared the
intersection, and as I started to make the turn, without warning the Honda
cuts right into my path, and I had to lay on the brakes so hard the tires
squealed. The guy in the passenger’s seat leaned out the window and said
something I couldn’t make out (I have a LOT of stereo in the car…) and
turns down the road. I turn down behind them, and they slow to 15 MPH.
Ooooo-K…about 75 feet down, she puts her TURN SIGNAL on! I figure she’s
going in the parking lot. Nope…drive another 1,500 feet with her turn
signal on, gets to the intersection, turns the turn signal off and STOPS!!!!
Lock ‘em up again!

I lean out of the open roof, the guy in the passenger’s seat is facing me
and flipping *ME* off, and I yell out "WHAT THE F#@K?!?!?!" They take the
corner, no turn signal and again STOP in front of the drummers house, LOCK
EM UP AGAIN!!!

The guy goes to get out of the car! I light em up, go around the car, and
go to the end of the street, turn around and wait.

They come up, get along side of me, the guy opens the door again and
starts getting out. I look at him and say "Sit the F#@K DOWN!" and look at
the girl driving and say, "*YOU* need to take the friggin’ BUS!!!!"

I was pretty shaken through all of this, because I only missed ramming
their door at the first turn by a matter of an inch.
