Quotes, Styles, Health Care, and My Top 25

First three quotes:

  1. There are 2 theories on arguing with women. Neither works.
  2. Life is too short for drama & petty things, so kiss slowly, laugh insanely, Love truly and forgive quickly
  3. Woman inspires us to great things, and prevents us from achieving them.

Next, Word 2007 uses styles to control formatting. A lot of writers don't give a damn about styles. Case in point, there should only be 9 Heading styles:
Heading 1
Heading 2
Heading 3
Heading 4
Heading 5
Heading 6
Heading 7
Heading 8
Heading 9

Next, health care... Everyone knows something about this issue. Here's an article about why Congress has awesome health care: Health Care for the US Congress

Next, if I had to pick 25 CDs to take with me on a tropical get-away, given that there is already a stereo there, I'd pick these 25:

  12. Megadeth - Rust in Peace
  13. Metallica - And Justice for All
  14. Metallica - Master of Puppets
  15. Motley Crue = Shout at the Devil
  16. Ozzy Osbourne - The Ultimate Sin

Next, I was genuinely interested in the following snip that was passed along on an email list. I asked that the URL with this info be shared. First, the snip that got my attention:

Here's an example:
"January 12, 2007 - The U.S. House passed a bill that says the minimum wage in this country will rise over time from $5.15 an hour to $7.25. Included in the small print is the fact that the minimum wage will now include the islands of the northern marinas but it exempts American Samoa which is the only U.S. Territory not subject to minimum wage laws.
Why? Star-Kist Tuna is a major employer there, with its headquarters in Speaker Nancy Pelosi's district."

Next, here's a piece that I have a hard time agreeing with: http://preview.tinyurl.com/y85d7a4
I think it's stupid to not want our president to be successful. I think it's terrible to be happy Chicago didn't get the Olympics is anything but terrible. Shame on those that think Obama is not their president.


On on we go...
