Win-win-win solution (OT)

Reading the paper this morning, the following solution occurred to me:



Dig a moat the length of the Mexican border, use the dirt to raise the levees in New Orleans, and put the Florida alligators in the moat.


Any other problems you would like for me to solve?



I like it. Sounds like a common sense approach to me.

Not like some ISO 9001, Pace Event or Six Sigma scheme.

You're hired....or elected...which ever your prefer.

Hmmm....I like your solution but how are you planning on filling the moat with water? The Rio Grande river is so low that they don't swim or wade across anymore, they simply step over it!

I know!! Fill it with all the "byproducts" from the pissing contest this thread is about to generate!

Now why didn't you think of that when you had those Frua Larks shipped over? That would have cut the shiipping time immensely if there was a direct canal from Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean. We need new 'Canal Zone' since we gave the one we had back to Panama. And there should be enough dirt to raise ALL of New Orleans and not just the levees if you build four or five shipping lanes.

No, JT.... real Tamales DO NOT come in a can!

Swap the 'gators for crocs and we'll have a winner. keep 'em a little bit hungry...

Been to Chuey's several times - it flat rocks.

Do you know what admiral Yammamoto's favorite Mexican food was ?

I'll give it a try, JP.

For some great chicken fajita burretos, go to Los Pinos, Balitmore and Lake Murray Blvd in La Mesa. Trini's #3 used to be the best in San Jose. Down on south 1st, IIRC.
