    I don't track it, it is not a capital expenditure.

    Oh, sorry I thought you were just totally bringing up random stuff that had nothing to do with your original comment about Obama spending more on GM and Chrysler than the last 10 presidents did on the Navy. That's why I responded the way I did. You actually had a point you were trying to make?

    60 years of Democratic leadership led to Detroit's current situation. It's funny reading the Team Dem posts saying that it isn't an issue. It's also absurd.

    And Obama's bailing out the Auto industry didn't do squat for those Dems in Detroit either. Detroit and Stockton are not the last Cities the Dems will bankrupt. just the leading edge.

    Ultimately, cities thrive or die depending on the character of their citizens. Whom they elect to office has little to do with it.

    Detroit is a prime example of what happens when bad people are the majority.

    How many seas must a white dove sale? Before she sleeps in the sand?

    How many times must MarAzul say Obama spent more on GM and Chrysler than the last 10 presidents did on the navy?

    The answer my friend, is blowin' in the wind...

    I'll let Further tell you why your reply was a giant fail. In this case 3 was not a magic number.

    It's from a De La Soul song. Unless you mentioned that your favorite drama movie was "blood sucking freaks who was just like yo mama" the response wars destined to fail.

    I bought tickets to go once, but didn't realize I was going to be out of the nation at the time of the concert. I remember being in the frankfurt airport depressed that I was missing a De La show at that moment.

    They played The Bite 7 or 8 years ago. Really odd choice for The Bite so there were maybe 100 people there. My friend and I pushed our way up to the front of the stage. At one point, and I swear to god this is the truth, they tossed a mic down to me and I got rap a couple of lines of Buddy.

    Man, how cool! That whole 3 feet high and rising album was huge for me. Loved it. Never got too into the rest of their work, but that album was awesome. I don't know nursery rhymes well, so when I have to sing to a baby to get them sleep, I usually sing Tread Water.

    Maybe I'll switch over. Listening to the Further show going on down in Eugene, but it kind of sucks. They just announced going on hiatus and it sounds like that are just mailing it in.
