Hilarious. I see the terrorist attacks that have occurred on the soil of American allies concern you not one little bit. Just so long as the Homeland is safe, huh? With friends like that....

good point, cleo. It's just that people like Westurn only see it as physical harm done…

Really ??? I can't ! Japan actively promotes the destruction of this crop and puts growth limits on it's farmers ! A completely illogical and outdated strategy that punishes consumers and hurts the environment. Boo !

I know, it's the same in the States. The Feds have been for years…

So you do admit that Bush is only concerned about Iraq, Iraq, and Iraq. He doesn't care about American's health, welfare, economy, education, food, transportation, crime, and housing. Only Iraq. Well, Americans are fed up. We are tired of Bush placing all of his…

Bush's legacy will be one who spent asked for and spent more money than any President before him. The end result, sure, less militants (and overall less people) in Iraq and Afghanistan. I have to give him that. Good job!

Starbucks sucks bigtime !

I gotta agree. Never been a fan of franchise shops. Starbucks, Tully's, etc. Seems like Seattle thinks they know coffee, but they don't.
Went to one in Santa Monica and the service sucked big time. Give me the old fashioned Mom-and-Pop anytime. Glad to have found…

Interesting article about Ichiro's annual All-Star pre-game speech to the AL all-stars. Seems like the AL hasn't lost an all-star game since he delivered his speech.

“It’s why we win,” David Ortiz said. He pointed to Ichiro Suzuki, the Seattle Mariners’ wisp of an outfielder, a man who still uses…

Westurn,

The staff there actually had the gall to ask me not to eat an orange on their premises while I drink my coffee !!!

Or maybe their penchant for signing up show-boat-hair-and-flair players like Shinjo, Darvish, Morimoto, etc...

Huh? I thought Morimoto doesn't have any hair.
