    House Republicans want a 30% National Sales Tax

    Why would a thread get locked?

    Hmm. Good catch. Same Title? Where I come from this would be called plagiarism. Yea. Deserved to be locked. Maybe even deleted. And move posts to first thread. Also maybe even warn the plagiaristic thread starter.

    How to console wife for pending loss of dog?

    I think our pets should die on their terms, not ours. A short story. My girlfriend, Russian, lives in St. Petersburg (deserves another thread) ... she had a dog, Markesia, that was near death. She was remarkably able to nurse him to another several years of life. Therefore, I would say...

    Top Gun (original) is still top ...

    Ok, well, I saw Top Gun: Maverick a few weeks ago with my dad in Utah. I must say that it is a great film. Lots of action. But I think the original was better. Why: The original: o Had better character development (imho). o Had a better story line/plot. o Had more likable/dislikable...
