Morning. It wouldn't be December 23rd and my last day of work for the year without a customer complaining that the stain on his cabinets doesn't match the stain his wife picked out.

I went to work yesterday, but there was nothing for me to do. 
Not sure if I have to go in and empty a big stinking trailer full of pack boots or not yet. Depends on whether it shows up or not.

Getting ready to head out shortly, so I just wanted to tell you guys Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah/Festivus/Kwanzaa/Winter Solstice or whatever other holiday you celebrate. Hope you have a good one and best wishes to you and your families. Talk to you in the next week or so.

You sick woman!
If you've gotta ask, then yes, you're not involved
Same here. I actually enjoy the fast n furious movies just for the sheer awesomeness of what they do with some of the cars (how they're used, NOT the paintjobs)
I had a thought just now.
BTW Nathan good to hear from you. And yes lots of posts to read.
I was thinking about capitalism and socialism. Regarding health care specifically. So I would like to draft a simple analogy if you'll indulge me.
What is the prime example of capitalism? Monopoly. No. Hardly. Just think about it. The prime example on the simplest of scales in every day life. Tips. More specifically, waiters/waitresses. When we go to a restaurant we pay for our service. If we get good service we can leave a good tip. If not we can leave a small tip. If we don't leave a tip, perhaps next time they'll remember us and do something to our food. You get the idea. They work to earn what we pay them for their service. Capitalism at its finest. They are not doing harm to any trees. They are not operating sweat shops where child laborers toil over Wally world clothing bearing a likeness to Hannah Montana or whatever the pre-teens clamor for next. They simply provide a service and receive a compensation. Now the compensation amount might be borne out of custom, but ultimately the market place decides. If the clientele is in Manhattan or Hollywood the market is quite good, but if its in Podunk, Texas maybe not so much. But the market decides.
So what is the opposite of capitalism in the food service industry. Socialism at the DMV. These people don't work on tips. They are typically unionized and they are paid based upon a scale more likely on the number of years they have been there and not on the number of satisfied customers. Now albeit a civil servant would starve on tips from satisfied customers, but isn't there a reason for that. They are paid to sit there 8 hours a day and do the bidding of the government in most cases at the dismay of the people the government serves. The service is cheerful, not, and the process is timely, not. It makes no difference how they serve you or what you pay, everyone gets the same treatment, bad.
So how does this apply to healthcare? Who would you rather buy your healthcare insurance or even healthcare from? A capitalist waitress, or a socialist DMV worker? When has the government gotten anything right? When has the government, the Feds, ever been on budget on anything. And in the last few years, when has the government, Congress and the President, been honest with anything they tell us.
So the next time you're eating out with teh wife, or the family, think of that little free-market waitress doing her best, or not, to earn your compensation. And when you're in line at the DMV, imagine how that state worker feels, occupying that chair, taking up space, and making no real difference in the world whatsoever.
Now imagine which type of person you would rather see determine whether you live or die?
IMHO

But then how are you going to say you banged somebody without actually saying it? Imagine:
Mom - So son, have you slept with your gf yet?
OR
Mom - So son, have you f***ed the s*** out of that gf yet?
And I spend 20 minutes to read the last 11 pages... Why don't you people besides the quoted posts here ever say anything but crap??

I'm always single at christmas, I have yet to find it a problem. Saves me money, and I'm never home anyways so it doesn't matter.
I may not survive 2 days there, but I'd get paid for 2 days, and I need money more than you know
