» » There's a special deal (round trip including all taxes and fees) on from Kansas City ($450) or Chicago ($350) to San Jose, Costa Rica. It needs to be done today, however, because we think it's probably a mistake and will be taken off the market overnight. It doesn't include the normal $300 in fuel surcharges that normally accompany that flight. Kansas City is the city my customer for whom I got the deal was flying out of, but I can certainly try other cities as well. Call me at 888-950-3273 (before 5 PM CST) or my cell at 620-899-1022 or email me at hans at goldrule dot net before 12 midnight CST if you're interested. (2) » »

» » Go Mitt! Romney gives excellent, excellent advice on the proposed big three bailout:
IF General Motors, Ford and Chrysler get the bailout that their chief executives asked for yesterday, you can kiss the American automotive industry goodbye. It won’t go overnight, but its demise will be virtually guaranteed.
Without that bailout, Detroit will need to drastically restructure itself. With it, the automakers will stay the course — the suicidal course of declining market shares, insurmountable labor and retiree burdens, technology atrophy, product inferiority and never-ending job losses. Detroit needs a turnaround, not a check.
Ok, so maybe I should have supported Romney over McCain. (But the three-way race between Huckabee, McCain, Romney made things difficult and Romney dropped out before Huckabee...)

» » I am surrounded by Morans. This morning I picked up the Hutch News and did a double-take as I saw the headline: "Moran sets up bid for Senate". I continued to read, "WASHINGTON - With the 2008 election season over, Rep. J. Moran wasted little time taking the next step in his likely bid for higher office." I double-checked the name of the newspaper at the top: yup, Hutchinson News, not Washington Post. Having just lived in Virginia and having two Morans (one US Representative and one VA House of Delegates) always on the political scene, I thought my days of political news about Morans was over. Apparently not. I used to have Rep. J. Moran in VA and now I have Rep. J. Moran in Kansas. The difference between Virginia and Kansas becomes stark, however, when one notices the one detail that is different: Rep. J. Moran (D-VA) and Rep. J. Moran (R-KS). (2) » »

And you’re expecting me to read the whole thing? I *quickly* browsed it and it looked good.

Of course you don’t have to read the whole thing. However, if you enjoy that kind of thing you are certainly welcome to.

I remember doing word studies under Elijah in that very class. It was great.
Mine weren’t as fancy as yours, though… nice job.

You kept my attention through this whole paper, explained it so I could understand, and poked my conscience, so–an A from me. (Although I had to fetch the dictionary on “putative.”)

Thank you very much! That means a lot coming from you.

Hans, If you sent me the names of your grandparents, I think I could email you a print out of your ancestors, if you are interested.
You have an interesting site.
