There are folks who have strong convictions on either side of the current war. However, it is nice to see a company who respects its employees' decision to serve their country.

"Have you seen the reports about how Sears is treating it's reservist employees who are called up? By law, the employer is required to hold the individual's job open and available, but nothing more. Usually, people serving our country take a big pay cut and lose benefits as a result of being called to active duty.

Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called up reservist employees for up to two years. I submit that Sears is an exemplary corporate citizen and should be recognized for it's contribution.

I suggest we all shop at Sears, and be sure to find a manager to tell them why you are there. The company then gets the positive reinforcement it well deserves."


No matter one's politics, I respect a company that cares about its employees.

And if you lend me your credit card, I will gladly go shopping there ... if you give me your cash, it would be even better since I wouldnt' have to try and forge your signature.

After you slept with 3 people, who slept with 3 people, who slept with 3 people....

How do I know you won't find a fine looking sales clerk desparately in need of a sale? Ready to make change?

Next thing, all those people you slept with will give birth and a Wal-Mart will need to open.

Very irresponsible on my part giving you the means to debauchery and degradation, netters. How could you suggest such a thing?

Quite easily... I sat in front of my computer, and I randomly pounced my fingers against keys on a device known as a keyboard. That in turn seemed to generate a word, in fact quite a few of them, that made sense as a complete sentence, and thus the suggestion was born.

You mean I can do this and make suggestions?

Does it work with the ladies?

It does, and you will usually get something from them. For y ou, it's more likely to be a slap though ... but you can have fun calling them a slapper and recieving another to prove it.
