“i liked your comment and got the sarcasm..b­ut i understand why you needed to say it was sarcasm too!”

“If he does it before they get in, that's okay. But one can never count on the common sense of someone like this.”

“by the way, that was meant as sarcasm (before anyone blows a gasket)”

“Yes - thanks”

“Short answer - No

This has been another episode of "Short Answers to Obvious Questions"”

“Like I've always said, if Sarah Palin spoke and believed exactly as she does now, but looked like one of those dumpy, overweight, middle-aged women we saw at the Republican National Convention, no one would have ever heard of her.”

“Nope, that's Stevie alright. Note the mention of Iran and Iraq at the beginning.

“nope - Stevie Wonder...”

“No, different song.

Bob's was "Don'cha worry, 'bout a ting (every little ting, gonna be allright"). Check it out, since I may not have gotten Stevie's song title right.”

“How low can you stoop? You just insulted hammers.

Have you no shame, man?

“first will be the meltdown then quit.....a­ll for our public viewing!!”

“I'm not disagreeing. I'm just wondering how people develop such ideas as animal cruelty being justifiable or not. I know slaughterhouses are cruel. Whether they are justifiable is the question at hand.”

“it's why I don't eat meat”

“He might have meant meat's ball, but your point is valid.”

“And another thing. One huge aspect of hosting an international affair like this, is infrastructure. I happen to believe that Chicago is one of the most efficient cities in the world and I'm sure there are a lot of people who agree with me. There is a reason why people like Donald Trump and Oprah have invested so much in the city. No other city that I know has two major airports with commuter train systems that run in the airport. It literally takes about 40 mins. to get from the airplane to downtown Chicago. No other city works like that. Forgive me for being excited about at least on city in this country where infrastructure works. If you think that the international community will get that in madrid or rio, think again. The transportation is just the beginning. There are approximately 150 languages spoken in Chicago and an ethnic neighborhood to support it. There are few places where people who come from around the world will find some kin folk. Excuse me for being excited about what America, Chicago in particular, has to offer the world.”

“Your taking this to seriously. Take a Breath. Relax, Release, and Relate. We could have used the money and the boost in moral at this time. Go stick your head in the toilet and cool off.”
