I could not get a flight back to Boston so I took advantage of this.

Alas, another bridge burnt by GAD's less than PC political viewpoints. I hope I'm not shunned at the offline... [img]http://wines.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img]

Actually, I'm sure we are all not too different politically. We like to tease each other, but it seems we are all pretty moderate, with left or right leanings.
The sad thing is that the far right and far left make all of the noise, making the political scene seem worse than it is. I think the majority of Americans are pretty middle-of-the-road.
I think we are also disgusted by the antics of the politicians "leading" our country. We need to get rid of the dead wood and get some fresh faces and ideas in D.C.

Agree 100% Bucko. Hey, any chance you can switch your rotation and make the offline??
- Bucko - 02-17-2007
I wish I could, but my partners would have a $hit fit. I already switched several months ago so that I could finish the WSET advanced certificate at Copia on June 2-3 in Napa.
I'm quiting medicine this July, so I'll have no obstacles in the future.

Except the usual ones of Old Age, Dementia, Memory loss, and the onset of taste-loss which has already manifistated itself over the last few years. Having flamingo legs is heriditary so you can't count them suckerz. . (heheheheh)VB [img]http://wines.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img]

I once thought the middle of the road was the place to be.... voted split tickets in all elections. Then found myself being run over from both sides. Stay in the right lane now.
Agree we need a new crop of pols.
Buckster, congrats on your career-change that you just slipped past us. Best wishes.
