Why Budget Cuts for EVERYTHING except Israel?

Very well written!   John

Time to protest like an Egyptian.......

Excellent piece by Michael Moore, who faced death threats during the deeply embarrasing "Freedom Fries" era by being one of THE earliest voices pointing out that the unelected Bush-Cheney regime lied us and the world into war in Iraq.  John

Nissan Esflow concept sports car

I LOVE the front end of this car....looks like a futurized Cord from the 1930s! I hope this is a very accurate glimpse of the next Z car. John

'Beat It!'

This is one of my very favorite Michael Jackson music videos, not so much because of the song itself but due to the exquisitely choreographed sinewy dance moves between both gangs near the end, in particular that cool moonwalk-like reverse sweep they all do together. John

VERY cool concept cars!

Thanks to my long time Denver friend Michael Mowry for sending me this link......I belong to http://www.gminsidenews.com/    where much has been posted about this show so I thought I'd seen them all....NOT!  I LOVE the Abarth Scorp-Ion both mechanically and stylistically, and am moved by the cool grace of the Citroen Metropolis. I'd seen quite a few pics of the truly bold Nissan Eslow, and love the front end that strikes me as a heavily futurized Cord for the 21st century....I hope it really IS a sneak peek at the next Z and that for production it is NOT watered down. Enjoy, John
