NWARETCAPT wrote: <quoted text> Regarding the 401K "Dog", does it make sense to you that there is a limit of only $15,500 on what can be contributed annually? Why not increase the maximum limit on 401Ks and IRAs with the caveat that those who add more than $15,500 to their private pensions, do so voluntarily, knowing there will be a reduction in the SS benefit. Even though you would still pay the full employee tax, the option to increase the 401K or IRA may be the best choice for you. This would take some pressure off of the SS system, and maybe allow folks to see the advantages of privatization of SS down the road. Just a thought. But then, some might find that to be GREEDY. That would interesting, but I believe most people would rather have that new car or truck and the fashionable toys, and not self disciplined enough to even put away the maximum now. It is true many people just cannot afford to do that, but those that can often don't. I look at as Monopoly money anyway since believe the government will find away to penalize the savers and tax the hell out of it anyway. The one thing I really like about Mit Romney is his idea of not taxing interest on savings unless a person make over a quarter mil a year. Right now we are taxed over and over on money that we already paid income taxes on. That is what I would like to see. Perhaps the people that spend every nickle they have are the smart one. I hope not.

In fact, kicking @ss and taking names in that Pansy Ghetto would have been real fun. Those droopy-wrist fairies would have been minor practice for the real thing later on. It was an FFA school, hardly pansies.

Brown Sugar wrote: <quoted text> It appears you would make a good military advisor for the rag head. You could advise him on how to cut and run and blame it on the Republicans. As an advisor, you would be in excellent company along with M. Albright, Wm Perry, and a host of other dregs from other failed administrations and presidential campaigns, e.g. Carter, Clinton, Kerry, et al. You might even be the best and brightest among that lousy bunch. You say such ignorant misconceptions. In 1952 Eisenhower said awful things about his mentor General Marshall for whom the Marshall plan is named after. The Marshall plan was a investment of US tax dollars into that part of Europe which Russia did not occupy. Without it most likely Russia would have succeeded in capturing the rest of the continent. It was not particularly favored by the Republican isolationists. But Sen. Vanderberg R-MI got it pushed through. Ike turned against the Marshall plan and NATO despite the fact he was one of the principle architects. Ike ran as a cut and run Republican, just as Nixon did in 1968. And they did cut and run ultimately. Humphrey lost that election because he stuck to his hawkish position. Name on war that a Democratic President lost? There are none. Oh by the way Reagan campaigned for Truman in 48, but that was before Nancy took his balls.

The only thing we know is he a redneck, drives a big red Hummer (usually means small in other areas), plays it tough with the stroke of a key, eats well-done steaks, drinks distilled water, his safety blankie is the flag and hates union employees with an emphasis on flight attendants. Did I miss anything? Just asking.

Old Jetbag wrote: Did a domestic turn yesterday. I will be so glad when summer is over. I was yelled at by business traveller because of the new taxi procedure to conserve fuel. I offered him the use of my flashlight so he could continue to read his book but, he would have none of it or my appology. Then another "gentleman" called me over close so no one else could hear and said: "Your too damn old to do this job!" I asked him if that was a proposal? Then walked away from him. He was not very attractive anyway and had VERY bad breath. It is the time of the year when EVERYONE loves to tell you what your job is and how to do it. A woman stopped me EVERY time I walked by with some kind of helpful hint. Such as: "There is a piece of paper on the floor over there." "That man is sleeping with his mouth open" "That baby is too loud." "There is too much salt on the pretzels." After each statement she promptly told me what she would do. I then told her, I would'nt tell her how to be a passenger if she did'nt tell me how to be a flight attendant! The next two hours she sat there clutching her purse staring at the seatback. It was pure bliss. Another day on the tube, huh? The old age comment...I would be thinking (hopefully not out loud) wonder how my heel would feel jabbed in your eye.

If I hear it again, I think I'll need one of those barf bags. The real one came from JM his name was attatched to it for years. We were working the back galley with him last trip. He gets all the credit!
