Why is that Fargo people take potshots at GF? The city has made incredible strides since 1997 and still you see this kind of mentality. Skyscraper Forum

Forum Editorial: Chapman, Dunn tiff no big deal

From the Bismarck Tribune... Chapman still hasn't learned

Gas is still $3.05 in Pensacola today. I heard on the radio that there is a water pipeline leak in the BP system, which will impact supply. Holiday weekend coming up and a prediction of a busy hurricane season. Get ready for some HIGH prices.

Living in Florida, you don't get a huge selection,but I bought a pair of BladeRunners and have been satisfied with them. Edit: I have had them for a year and I still stink on hills.

and a 5% pay increase and a contract extension.

PRAIRIE VOICES: High gas prices: Economist explains it all A great interview with a macroeconomist.

Take off, eh.

Letter reveals clashes I don't know which one I trust less Chapman or Paulsen.

I second the nomination.

With a new president coming in within the next year, would that change the climate?

Don't even think it.

Sorry Goon, The Sicatoka had it correct in post #148. It was a badger. My post was just reminiscing about the event. I guess I didn't really say that Sica was correct.

Read my signature line. The Fair Tax truly is the answer to a lot of the problems in this country. The problem is getting it to pass in the congress, because if it does pass, congress loses alot of power. Imagine a businesses making financial decisions based on what is best for the company and employees rather than what makes the best tax sense. We would all benefit from the Fair Tax. There would be no benefit for American companies to have their hq in far away lands The American economy would explode.

I was a couple of sections over from the press box when it happened. If I remember correctly it fell right in front of the Bison homer, Adelson. The Wisconsin wars of the early '80's were great.

No, but you're close.

Is a hint needed on this one?

Obscure award, yes, but worth noting that the firm that designed the UND is recognized for their design. BUSINESS BULLETIN BOARD

In the 1980's in a packed Old Ralph, a certain item fell from the rafters and swung on a rope right in front of the press box. Name the item.

From Karl Marx: I do agree that life isn't always fair, but the system that we have is far better than anything else out there and I wouldn't trade it. The redistribution of wealth is not the answer! The method to success, perhap oversimplified here, hasn't changed. A stable homelife while growing up, get a good education and work hard and success will find you. Some people take risks and make things happen, while others may get some breaks that will launch them further ahead, but I don't begrudge them, that is just part of life and I can accept that. No, I'm not a fatcat, I work hard and am able to provide a nice home and way of life for my wife and children. Sorry, I'm not up on the operations of the NFL or MLB. I don't watch much baseball (too boring) and watch the Saints when I can.

Hmmm, a system that allows people to use their talents and take some risks and achieve (see Ralph Engelstad) or a system that rewards people to not work via the welfare system, "earned income tax credit" and other social programs? I think I'll take the capitalist model. Don't get me wrong, I think there are people in our country who genuinely need assistance; and I have no problem that we as a society care for them. But I live in the south and see far too many people living off the system and yet complaining about it. I work with men whom I have talked about advancing their careers and they have no ambition to take advantage of an opportunity, because it would require that they actually take some initiative and responsiblity. Dave, I believe that the only thing in life in which you and I would agree is our passion for UND and Sioux sports.

Do you have information as to how much Exxon, for instance, pays for and sells a barrel? I have a neighbor who works for Chevron, in the lubricant end of the business and from what I hear from him and others, is the amount of red tape and regulation to build a new refinery is unfathomable. Hurricane season is just around the corner and makes the current situation even worse. Every time a hurricane enters the Gulf, they start evacuating the drilling platforms and refineries close down to all, but essential personnel. There are vast oil deposits in the Gulf of Mexico and ANWR, but the environmentalists have not allowed us to go after these reserves, putting us more at the whim of countries of the Middle East and Venezuela. You may notice that I post a lot of information on what is going on at EERC. I have a great interest in alternatives to the direction we are currently taking and would love our beloved EERC to take us in that direction. I also have been watching LM Glasfiber, as I think North Dakota has huge potential for wind farms. "Big Oil" may contribute to where we are right now, but I put more of the blame at the feet of the environmentalists movement for they are not the NIMBY's, they are the BANANAs, (Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anyone). By the way, I paid $3.06/gallon this afternoon downtown Pensacola.
