And right you are! My stupid. John Huston's use made it all that much the funnier for those that had seen the Bogart flick when Mel reused it. Obviously that didn't include me.

Thanks for ending my torment over where I'd seen it at TSG!

LOL About the bus. Hardly. The first lesson my teacher gave me was "don't make yourself available."

No Looking back it would have been nice. I tried to travel light. I didn't carry anything that anyone would want to steal.

Joshua Holland | Was the "Credit Crunch" a Myth Used to Sell a Trillion-Dollar Scam?
http://www.truthout.org/123108D
Joshua Holland, AlterNet: "There is something approaching a consensus that the Paulson Plan -- also known as the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP -- was a boondoggle of an intervention that's flailed from one approach to the next, with little oversight and less effect on the financial meltdown."

Drug Companies and Doctors: A Story of Corruption
http://www.truthout.org/123108E
Marcia Angell, The New York Review of Books: "Recently Senator Charles Grassley, ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, has been looking into financial ties between the pharmaceutical industry and the academic physicians who largely determine the market value of prescription drugs. He hasn't had to look very hard."

Ain't that the truth!

I have always figured that there is some kind of kick back between the drug peddlers and the doctors

Too much high priced med the docs want to prescribe and too many times the prescribe crap that they were guessing on that costs a lot

And lots of perks and kickbacks!

Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their interests: George Washington (1732-1799) Founding Father, 1st US President, 'Father of the Country' -Source: Farewell Address, September 17, 1796, Ref: George Washington: A Collection, W.B. Allen, ed. (521)

Wow! GW could be taken for a Palestinian sympathizer! Or an anti-Zio-nazi! Certainly an Enemy of the Lobby.
