And I do love the idea of at least the option of a longer summer vacation (typically 5-6 weeks in Europe), but I understand their "Social Contact" is why many corporations don't add workforce in the EU, or reduce their workforce in the EU... and add it it places like the Chech Republic, Ireland, the US or Australia.<br /><br />But let's not even go into how Greece could go BK, and how they could alos take down the whole European Union. Sadly, we're following suit with our state, federal, and local debts.<br /><br />Oh well, the lure of the Free Lunch!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-69289900391930843702012-05-11T12:14:11.305-07:002012-05-11T12:14:11.305-07:00FWIW - bikers ride motorcycles.

He reported on the stadium "yes," but never did he question that "Measure J did not ask the taxpayers of Santa Clara to pay for the Stadium." In fact Mr. York, and the Elected Officials of Santa Clara said that the Stadium would be of no cost to the taxpayers during the run up to the election of Measure J. <br /><br />In my book that is not being "Powerful in the Media," thats being a patsy for the rich & powerful....The truth about the SC Stadium is being witheld, and NO Media Outlets in the Bay Area wants to peep the Yorks out on it. The Yorks, and Elected Officials of SC know that this current site is totally Flawed...But it will all be uncovered when the fanbase discovers that the undersized stadium has virually no parking...and you have to walk 20 minutes to your car in the Yahoo Employee parking lot. The newly built garage is meant for the 1%, who will occupy the glass tower at the SC stadium.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-44892868745757848202012-05-10T14:00:37.843-07:002012-05-10T14:00:37.843-07:00You mentioned that Gil Gross won't move the ne...You mentioned that Gil Gross won't move the needle, but don't elaborate as to who you think would. Do tell. I would have preferred John Rothman, John and Gene was always my two favorites, depending on the subject. Several people that get huge ratings I find boring such as Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, it not because they are conservative, but because they are predictable, and Sean Hannity often contradicts himself. Also when he talks about Europe he is so off base, I grew up in Denmark, and the way conservative's depicts European social democraticy has very little to do with the truth, and the high quality of living most people in Europe enjoys.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-37554383341578788832012-05-10T11:56:46.732-07:002012-05-10T11:56:46.732-07:00and where would Matier and Ross be ...especially i...and where would Matier and Ross be ...especially in the Mirkarimi matter....without Phil Bronstein?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-41778982020141287472012-05-10T11:49:37.725-07:002012-05-10T11:49:37.725-07:00Newstalk 910 needs two things and they'd becom...Newstalk 910 needs two things and they'd become so much more relevant: 1, A stronger signal. (What's the chance of that happening?) And 2, switch out their daytime syndicated shows with local talent such as former KGO talkshow hosts. I get that they're trying to mix it up with views from across the board, but people around here want locally based talk shows rather than "fair & balanced".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
