GA growing has come to a screeching halt since banks are not giving private developers the loans they were previous… its amazing what you find when your company is based out of Norcross. Shit the biggest thing proposed in GA right now is a 30 story CCRC. ---

EX. Calling those against the war unpatriotic, bringing up issues like gay marriage, and abortion. ---

How do you plan on getting from state to state?(We will have tight boarders and no fly zones with zero tolerance.;)) Oh, I’m sorry this is just another left wing theory that would fail in real life so the actual facts are always ignored. But hey it sounded like a great plan in the classrooms of Harvard and that’s all that matters right? Whatever, as long as I get my guns, bible and the best skiing on the planet(AK).:eekdance: ---

Gas in San Diego was in the high 2’s. In that most liberal of states, California. I think you can scrap the red state argument. Ironically, it was about 25-50 cents more expensive there than here at this time last year. forthekicks, when grownups are talking please speak only when spoken to. for the greater good. kthxbye ---
