If I lived in a small town and close enough to a food store, I wouldn't
need a car/van/truck.I would make a little trailer for my bicycle (I own a made in Germany 1976 Hercules Moped too, it has bicycle pedals on it) and use that to go to the food store, other stores around town. Some people just do not want the hassels of owning and maintaining a car/van/truck.Same as with computers too, I know some people who do not own/use a computer.They are not missing anything at all neither. cuhulin, the Bicycle |

Not trying to start trouble, but... If they are not missing anything with a computer, then what are you doing here? Isn't this comment sort of a self-indictment? Actually, it used to be that everything now on the internet was available in print or on media from somewhere - possibly hard-to-find or inconvenient to locate, but available. The internet puts almost everything at your fingertips, as well as providing a social gatheirng place. I think you know this, and I think you'd miss it for sure :-) Bruce |

Doggy and I would step across Highway 80 to the Be Bop store and order
all the classic movies we want.It would be cheaper in the long run, no more paying for DirecTV, over seventy dollars each month. cuhulin |

The way politics work is that "Nobody won". Look it up! This bill will help my family considerably. My %^$%#^%$ insurance company already has been raising my rates constantly, and trying to give us the runaround. This thing, as odd as it is, will make a difference in several important salient health-related details, cost not being a big deal among them. Bruce You can fire them, up until Obama signs it into law. Then you are forced to have insurance or accept government health care. Too bad, you're forced by Obama to pay someone you hate. You make it sound like you'll never ever, ever never need health care for as long as you live. Which is an impossibility, of course. So just cough up the cash and stop being an idiot about it. Never... I will go to Obama-land Prison first. Where you will pay for food, water, sewer, Cable, clothes and electric and room and board.... So you're a socialist. NO... it makes me stubborn, and principled, and expensive for tax payers like you. Do you drive without car insurance, or do your principles end there? Maybe he's like my neighbors down the road. They paid cash for their house, almost $200K in 1994, and never got insurance. In early 2007, it burned to the ground, due to an electrical problem in the attic, they lost 50 years of family pics and everything else they owned. They said on TV, =3FWe never thought we would need it!=3F. Morons. How cheap do you have to be to not have homeowner=3Fs insurance? I went by the empty lot a few minutes ago, and there they were, sitting in their car, like they usually are. There=3Fs nothing there, so I have no idea why they do this. Doesn=3Ft matter how bad the weather is, most days, they are sitting there in the car, or on nicer days, folding chairs. It appears that they are finally going to start rebuilding soon, as there are stakes that were put in recently. And all this changed your life how? I've only had insurance on one house, my first house that I stupidly got a loan to purchase.... I never made that mistake again. I didn't need insurance on a house "I" lived in, I am a very careful person, but if you're an idiot.... you may want it. Why would I want to take on risk of your careless lifestyle, also there are people that burn their house down to get the money, why do I want to be in "business" with that kind. Do you think you can win with those people? I never had a fire or any other disaster that was able to destroy the homes I bought. |
