Hey, was doing a turn in my game with Dean Beecham and came up with a neat jingle for the Austrians to use!

The Austrian Pimpernel

They see him here,
They see him there,
The Frenchies see him everywhere.

Is he in Aspern?
Is he in Essling?
That very elusive Archduke Charlie!

Bill I am actually entertained and amused!! But I have a bent sense of humor...[:D] Oh and as for political ads its pretty crazy here in New York, especially since we have my district race where the incumbent is head of the whole republican effort in Congress and is barely holding onto his seat in the latest polls, but what the hell do those mean, nothing.....[}:)][:D] I will say I do enjoy our local car dealer, carpet and jewlery dealer commercials better...oh lawyers too!! [:p][B)] Oh well from one crook to another...

The Reps. are split in my state. Its a wild fight between Sali and the rest. Issues are water rights, land use, typical stuff in Western states.

Dems are against low tax enticements for out of state companies. Trying to figure out how they expect to lure companies here otherwise.

Boise is a great place to live. If you can put up with the occaisional gruesome murder .... we had one just this past week. Worse than the beheading back in May.

Yup, the major potato processing state has become Utah. Next time you see a Ute you call him a Potato Head cuz they now have that industry.
