    The question was posed by a woman how identified herself as Joyce Ravis(sp) from Lake Wiley, South Carolina. Her question was, “In the economy times that we have now is it wise to decision to add more taxes to us with the health care because we are over taxed as it is now.” The answer was 17minutes of blah, blah, blah, blah… I thought the president had turned to page one of the 906 page health care law and started reading beginning at the table of contents.

    Over the weekend, while peddling the snake-oil he has already sold us with no returns or refunds, an audience-member asked a very simple question: How can we afford Obamacare when we are already overtaxed?

February 12, 2006 Sources tell TMZ Van Halen is in the market for a new lead singer, and the marketplace will be the upcoming reality show 'Rock Star: The Series.' Last October, Van Halen reps vehemently denied the band would use 'Rock Star' in a talent search for a new lead singer. The reps are now singing a different tune.

Last time I checked, the bids were up to $1,275.00. There is also a thread about this auction on the eBay sellers central discussion forum called "AHHHHHH! Uh, well, at least shipping is free. Is this for real?" It can be found at http://forums.ebay.com/db2/thread.jspa?threadID=1000218333 This thread is still running in that forum, even after several days.
