One stall in a single person br solves the problem except at sporting
events and people are too drunk to care there.
Unisex with all stalls is fine if the women can flatten the man
loitering there.

I'm waiting to see which state will be the first to force/attempt to
force places of worship and schools operated by religious organizations
to accommodate so-called transgender persons with separate bathroom
facilities. My first guess would be CA, followed by MA.

Better yet, how about suing churches b/c they don't preach "other" religions - and thus discriminate against those of other faiths.

I moved from Texas to Cackalacky (Surf City and Wilkesboro) for 16 years before returning to Texas. WARNING: you will soon be jonesin' for Texas BBQ. But give that vinegar base sauce a chance with the ribs and pulled pork. It'll grow on you. JUMP on your first invitation to an oyster roast. Carolina oysters RUTS those from the Gulf Coast. Slurping a steaming oyster out of the shell, followed by a method of cold beer consumption called guzzling, will make great strides in the pursuit of happiness.

You know....I might be a heretic, but Texath BBQ has always seemed vastly overrated to my taste

You need to be in the Bar B Q capitol of the world this weekend for
the International Festival. Our son just flew in fron TX and wants to
go to Moonlight where the Air Force plays touch and go - they touch,
eat B-B-Q, then go.

I make my own BBQ rub and will be smoking four racks of pork ribs tomorrow. I figure that won't end because I moved. I make the best Texas BBQ I've tasted. I also dig the yeller sauce and pulled pork, so I'll prolly do okay. And, there's a Chuey's! That will cure what I'll be Jonesing for ;)

With labor force participation rate so low, these numbers look better
than they are. When unemployment goes down and purchasing power goes
down too -- ugh. While U3 is significantly less than the worst of the
Bush administration, U6 is just now equaling the worst of the Bush
years. Your picking the height of the recession as the starting point is
bound to make Obama look good, and the numbers deceptive.
There has been some recovery since Obama took over. But not a heck of
a lot -- it has been very weak. With health care costs up so much, no
one is feeling great. Right track/wrong track numbers are pitiful.
Obama has been a piss-poor president. Recovery has been historically
weak for such a bad recession, foreign policy has cratered, race relations
have worsened.
People feel bad about his presidency for good reason. Your trying to
tie this to numbers is like the polls on bombing/accepting refugees
from Agrabah. Part of it is simple partisan feeling. The rest is just
measuring the start of Obama from the depth of the recession.

The Con Man is a case in point:
"It's a fact that unemployment has gone down and the stock market has gone up
during the Obama administration," said Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy
Polling. "But GOP voters treat these things more as issues of opinion than issues
of fact."

Someone run the numbers and let's find the demographics of those in the stock market. Not a lot of those in inner-cities and near suburbs have Fidelity accounts.
dotslashderek@gmail.com: May 13 03:17PM -0700
None of what y'all rsfcons is anywhere near the point... and in fact, you make the original point.
There are numbers. They are objective. There is no arguing that the market has gone way up since obama has been elected. Believing this isn't the case is a result of being ridiculously uninformed, not some deep gut analysis of "the real truth undeneath the numbers" like con is trying to claim.

That's a big (and costly) advance.
I remember when bypass and heart valve surgery were pretty iffy. Now
they can stent the shit out of you (sometimes through your wrist) and
insert a valve through your armpit.
And drug advances? They have been largely phenomenal (and expensive).

His father, Edward Mezvinsky, represented Iowa's 1st congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives for two terms in the 1970s and his mother, Marjorie Margolies, represented Pennsylvania from 1993 to 1995.
Ed Mezvinsky pleaded guilty to 31 charges of felony fraud in 2001 and spent five years in federal prison after he admitted scamming his friends and family out of $10 million in a Ponzi scheme.

Marjorie Margolies is famous for casting the deciding vote for Bill Clinton's tax increase in 1993 while the Republicans in the house chanted "Good-bye Marjorie!" at her. And they made it stick.

That was interesting and naturally I have some observations.
1. That article dwells too much on perks that are available to economy class customers for a fee... like lounge access ($50/day on AA, $30/day on SAS).
2. It shows how bad US airlines' service has gotten that she is raving over perks that are also available in the lowest class of economy on other country's airlines (free bottled water, choice of entertainment, etc). Until she started talking about the bed seats and the free booze on board, she was basically describing my experience flying SAS GO (their name for cattle class) plus paying $30 for lounge access.
3. business-class airlines come and go. They never seem to last. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why. La Compaigne has two 757s with a capacity of 74 passengers each. The reporter's flight was like half full, so they are flying 30-50 people to Europe for $1500 each, and I suspect the jet fuel alone for that flight cost more than the $75,000 in passenger revenue they got. If that $1500 was a round trip cost the numbers are even worse.
4. seven people paying $1500 each for the flight... that's an expensive family vacation!
Finally most airlines make a ton of money on premium seats but not just by selling the premium seats, but also by getting passengers to be loyal to them so they will fly economy or economy plus, usually on an employer's dime and trying to game their company's travel system to avoid the steepest discounts, to earn enough miles and status to qualify for upgrades to premium seats. Or by selling miles to credit card companies, etc, that they use to lure customers in to try to earn the miles needed to qualify for upgrades. This airline doesn't have that path available, and I doubt any corporate travel department is going to let its employees fly this airline. So I don't see it lasting.
