Christmas disply

The story is that the guy that owns this house lives north of Cincinnati , Ohio. Police were constantly being called for traffic jams and accidents in the neighborhood so they asked him to shut it down during certain hours. Instead he started charging by car load to pay off duty police to be there. The guy is supposedly a real computer GEEK.

Do we still doubt that China is heading towards becoming a Mega super power in a decade or two?

No doubt at all.
Regarding railroads , the USA is living in the dark ages.
Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail. Beijing departure station





The train speed is 350 km/hr

The crew to board the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed train.



The crew staff are preparing food.


The trains have 1st class, business and VIP cars, as well as economy class of course.
There are also dedicated disabled areas, wheelchair accessible bathrooms and corridors.






HOW DID THEY DO THIS?
THEY COPIED THE US IDEAS OF THE 40 & 50’S AND COMBINED THEM WITH TODAY’S TECHNOLOGY.
 
 
What do you think?
Made in China with our money from all our
“Made In China ” purchases?
Hellloooooooooo..

 Hello, Boss

I can’t come to work today.

A moose was born on my front lawn and the

Mama won’t let us out the front door!

Baby Moose, 12-hours old, born in the

middle of downtown Naubinway , MI

.Description:

In my 33 years in Michigan ‘s Upper Peninsula ,

I have never seen a new-born baby moose.

The mother picked a small quiet neighborhood

and had her baby in a front yard, near Highway # 2,

at 5:30 AM. Allen and I were bike riding when we

came upon the pair. The lady across the street from

the house said she saw it being born. We saw them

at 5:30 PM, so the little one was then 12 hours old.

What an awesome place to live!

HOW TO FIX A CONGRESS-Warren Buffett

THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!    

  Warren Buffett, in a recent interview with CNBC,offers     one of the best quotes about the debt ceiling …

“I could end the deficit in 5 minutes,” he told CNBC.

“You just pass a law that says that any time there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election.”

The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months and 8 days to be ratified! Why?

Simple! The people demanded it.               

That was in 1971 – before computers, e-mail, cell phones, etc.

Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took one (1) year or less to become the law of the land – all because of public pressure.

Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise. In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message.

This is one idea that really should be passed around.            

 

Congressional Reform Act of 2012

1. No Tenure/No Pension

A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they’re out of office.

2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.      

All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.

3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.

4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise.

Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.

7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void effective 12/1/12.

The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women.

Congress made all these contracts for themselves.

Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career.

 The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.    GARBOWSKI.NET
