Thought: Why does a "slight tax increase" cost you two hundred dollars, and a "substantial tax cut" saves you about thirty cents?



You read about terrorists, most coming here legally, then staying years and years on expired visas. Compare that to Blockbuster here they're all over you if you're two days late returning your video. Why not put Blockbuster in charge of immigration?

You are what you drink The Bar Scene!

Before you order a drink in public, you should read this! Seven New York City bartenders were asked if they could nail a woman's personality based on what she drinks. Though interviewed separately, they concurred on almost all counts. The results:



FOR LADIES:



Drink: Beer

Personality: Causal, low-maintenance; down to earth.

Your Approach: Challenge her to a game of pool.



Drink: Blender Drinks

Personality: Flaky, whiny, annoying; a pain in the ass.

Your Approach: Avoid her, unless you want to be her cabana boỵ



Drink: Mixed Drinks

Personality: Older, more refined, high maintenance, has very picky taste; knows EXACTLY what she wants.

Your Approach: You won't have to approach her. If she's interested,

she'll send YOU a drink.



Drink: Wine (does not include White Zinfandel)

Personality: Conservative and classy; sophisticated yet giggles.

Your Approach: Tell her you love to travel and spend quiet evenings with friends.



Drink: White Zinfandel

Personality: Easy; thinks she is classy and sophisticated, actually she has NO cluẹ Your Approach: Make her feel smarter than she is... this should be an easy target.



Drink: Shots

Personality: Likes to hang with frat-boy pals and looking to get totally drunk... and naked.

Your Approach: Easiest hit in the joint. You have been blessed. Nothing to do but wait, however, be careful not to make her mad!



Drink: Tequila

No explanations required - everyone just KNOWS what happens therẹ



THEN, there is the MALE aðendum ----



The deal with guys is, as always,very simple and clear cut:



Domestic Beer: He's poor and wants to get laid.



Imported Beer: He likes good beer and wants to get laid.



Wine: He's hoping that the wine will give him a sophisticated image to help him get laid.



Whiskey: He doesn't give a damn about anything but getting laid.



Tequila: He is thinking he has a chance with the toothless waitress.



White Zinfandel: He's gay!



Just drink with these fools!
