Saturday, October 2, 2010. POTPOURRI OF OPINION - the Economy, the Building Industry, the National Debt, The Mosque. The economy will not begin full recovery until the building industry recovers. For a number of reasons, the home buying public has decided that this is not the right time for them to buy.

Booboisie: August 2008
http://booboisieonline.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 27, 2008. Immigration - a term which evokes emotions from bitter resentment to compassion. But any controversial subject has several myths associated with it. In this case, we will start with three, two of which are mythical in a least certain parts of the country. The second is that they sell their labor cheap.
