    Oh heck yes this is a lot of fun even with six players. Every week is a challenge with the bye weeks. I just can't get over how I watch football differently as I root for players and not necessarily victories. Who ever though a Steelers fan would be behind Brady all year.

    I pick up steam and get on a roll then the Steelers crush the Ravens and sit all my players. Go figure.

    Manufacturing in China

    Did you ever stop to think what the reason is for all those people wanting to come to the USA when we don't give out free benefits like Europe and all of our jobs don't pay a living wage. Heck they should be flocking to every country but the USA.:mrgreen: The truth is they know where the best...

    Cost of Mags in Canada

    The extra cost is to cover the expense of mailing across the boarder. It probably cost more than that so in fact your cost should go up. Vendors have just been charging the wrong price for years. :cool: That sound good enough for me. What do I know, I didn't sleep in a Holiday Inn Express.

    Manufacturing in China

    I had to run so I couldn't finish my thoughts. China is expanding faster than any other country. This will result in higher manufacturing cost in the future. I still say pocket of Africa are ripe for manufactures to move too. In fact they will be forced to move as they did over the past 20...

    Manufacturing in China

    13% of the US work force is Union. So in effect Unions have no impact on the total picture. They are just a very small part of the work force concentrated in certain parts of the workforce. Now for people working I guess that is a back yard thing. I live in a rural area and we are at full...

    Manufacturing in China

    I wasn't thinking about Southern England :) I was thinking about some of the real African Countries. :) There are enough poor countries where .50 an hour would be a large increase in their standard of living. In any event it is my guess for the next or future move of cheap manufacturing,

    Manufacturing in China

    I remember when everything had a little lead in it. I guess my mother was smart and wouldn't let me eat my toys. I don't mind buying from China I read a very detailed report and their workers that mfg O scale trains work in better conditions than most of my friends. It was in the OGR mag a few...

    Wow Tom you were a battle this weekend. Who knew Brady would post such numbers. As a matter of fact I wish I played Ben too since he had a great weekend. I was concerned with Payton going strong last night. Nice game you are the standard for the first half of the season.
