Re: A Tale Of 2 States: CA Faces Water Shortages But AZ ...

Ants and grasshoppers. I get it now. Planning for the future. I just assumed you were making a snide remark about me that I didn't get and responded in kind. Now I feel a little bad except for you calling me a douchbag, but I guess I deserved it. For the record I regard water and sewer utilities as ...

Re: A Tale Of 2 States: CA Faces Water Shortages But AZ ...

If I only knew what that meant.

Maybe the citizens there didn't want to pay higher taxes to keep the plant open. Or maybe they didn't want a bigger inefficient government sticking their nose in where they don't belong. Let the private sector handle all those things.

I read about that plant. They were experiencing another drought and we're getting desperate and built the plant. Then they got 30 inches of rain and the drought was over. They mothballed the plant until now.

Re: Partisan Politics Good For America?

Now we are getting somewhere. I'm like you Indy and don't belong to any party although Dan might argue that I am a Democrat. I voted for Obama twice. My allegiance is to America, not a party. I voted for Obama mainly because he wasn't a Republican and I have become angry at the party for their actio...

Re: Partisan Politics Good For America?

I watch the Suns still and haven't missed a game all year, but I stopped posting about the Suns since the Dragic trade. I don't know why, but listening to Phx-Suns.net fans talk about the Suns right now doesn't interest me at all. Politics always gets me I guess because it's real life and so importa...

I think you guys are being a little hard on OE.

Re: Partisan Politics Good For America?

Conservative implies to me slow to change. Progressive to me implies eagerness for change. Ying and yang. Don't want to rush into something without studying it to death first, but you can spin your wheels and never get anything done that way too. As far as climate change goes, we all believe differe...

Re: Indiana's "Religious Freedom" Law

Nodack, I'm going to swap out one word from this line, and would like to know if you still agree with it. I'm going to do it a few times, in fact. Not with your conclusion, which I agree with...bigots should have to deal with any public backlash they receive for their bigotry, but with the underlyi...

Re: Indiana's "Religious Freedom" Law

I think this whole thing is silly. I wouldn't be doing the KKK thing based on who the KKK hate. A photographer would refuse service to gays based on who they love. I guess I think if a pizza shop wants to announce that it will refuse to serve gays then they should be willing to accept that they are ...

Re: Indiana's "Religious Freedom" Law

It all boils down to one group wishing to make a law allowing them to discriminate against one group of people that they don't approve of. Exactly. So maybe there is a big group of people in this country looking to strip liberties away from others. ;) Touché Indy So Libertarians should be on the si...

Re: Indiana's "Religious Freedom" Law

I have played three gay weddings in the past year. I guess if the KKK wanted to hire me for an event I would say no. In reality I would probably just tell them I was already booked on the date tney were interested in to avoid a confrontation. I see your point though. I would be refusing my services ...

Next you guys will be talking about what color of food coloring is being used on said cupcakes.

Otherwise, I'll probably hit the Gallagher's near my mom's house on 32nd St and Baseline. Well, my plans changed for tonight. I...
