I have this book in my head that will
be easy to write (i think), but should i
go through the torture?

i know its hard, but what r the chances it will be published ?
should i print it myself & then go to independent small family owned bookstores for marketing ??

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE ABOUT THIS ???????

what about a movie script ? i have watched some real CRAP
movies (yes i love my NETFLIX), and know i can do a better job (i think).

how do these people get these movies made ? Iam talking about some serious crap..

just looking for help or advice or whatever. any comments will be appreciated !!!!!!

yea, joseph stalin saying this was pretty brutal

"the death of one is a tragedy,
the death of thousands is progress"

i think i would rather run like hell while hungry rather than
being cut down by scythes and guns.

people think the usa has rights violations ? they have no idea the scale of genocides by other nations.

OKAY MINDSI - here is the problem


I am china - you are america


you come to me and borrow money so you can run your household

i charge you interest on what you borrow from me

you then come to my store and buy products from me and spend the money that i have loaned to you on interest

I AM GETTING YOUR MONEY COMING AND GOING

a nation cannot function if it sends all of its resources
out of the country.

china allows the U.S. government to fucntion by buying
our treasury notes, which the U.S. has to pay interest on. Then we go to wal-mart and buy chinese crap. if you dont see
the problem with that then i dont know what to tell you.

actually a few have mentioned the movie about wal-mart
and i believe the government is going to step in by
declaring wal-mart a monopoly.

it is the only thing that will stop this monster. in communist countries , wal-mart is the perfect store.

do not ever call the person you are
arguing with something "personal".

it is a indication you have run out
of logical thought.

like, you have no clue what you are
talking about because you are a "jack-ass".

you have lost the argument.

this comes directly from the

www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/09/19/made-in-the-u-s-a-
what-products-are-still-made-in-america/

website.

IAM SUPPOSED TO GET EXCITED FROM THIS ???

GOD, MAKE ME ANOTHER MARTIN




So what are the choices for those who want to buy products made in the U.S.A.?

It's surprisingly difficult to find companies that actually make their products in America. For instance, you might think that Anheuser Busch Companies (NYSE: BUD) brews its beer in the U.S. However, while it has many plants in the U.S., it also brews in Japan, China and Germany. Hasbro Inc. (NYSE: HAS) makes its Monopoly board game in Waterford, Ireland, not in the U.S. And Wrangler jeans for the U.S. market are manufactured in Central America and Mexico.

I started off looking at companies on the Made in America site -- a show on the Travel Channel. This led me to a long list of companies. While many of the names on this list are headquartered in the U.S., many make some if not all of their products in other countries (to find out, I simply did a Google search on 'where is [product name] manufactured,' which usually led to relevant information on the topic). I decided to strike those names from the list I would write about and focus only on those companies that were fairly well-known brands which as far as I could tell actually made their products in the USA.

With the holiday shopping season nearly upon us, here's a list of 22 products which are made in America:

*
Toys: Crayola's Silly Putty (Easton, PA)
* Cosmetics: Burt's Bees (Durham, NC)
* Cosmetics: Merle Norman Cosmetics (Los Angeles, CA)
* Toys: Slinky Toys (Hollidaysburg, PA)
* Candles: Yankee Candles (South Deerfield, MA)
* Teddy Bears: Vermont Teddy Bear Company (Burlington, VT)
* Jeans: Union Jean Company (Arcanum, OH)
* Playing Cards: United States Playing Card Company (Cincinnati, OH)
* Outdoor Gear: Cabela's, Inc. (NYSE: CAB) (Sydney, Nebraska)
* Sound Systems: B&K Components (Buffalo, NY)
* Carbon Bicycles: Aegis Bicycles (Camden, ME)
* Boots: Red Wing Shoes (Red Wing, MN)
* House Tools: Stride Tool Inc. (Glenwillow, OH)
* Handbags: Unique Bag and Design (Akron. OH)
* Women's Baseball Caps: Madcapz (Chicago, IL)
* Plastic Boxes : Oppenheim Plastics Co. (Saddle River, NJ)
* Appliances: KitchenAid Appliances (Benton, MI) (manufactured in Ohio, Mississippi; Arkansas; Tennessee; and Indiana).
* Baskets: Longaberger Baskets (Dresden, OH)
* Kitchen cabinets: Merillat Industries (Adrian, MI) (manufactured in 11 U.S. plants)
* Paper supplies: Mrs. Grossman's Paper Company (Petaluma, CA)
* Louisville Slugger Baseball Bats: Hillerich & Bradsby Company (Louisville, KY)
* Clothing: Pendleton Woolen Mills (Portland, OR)

Do you have other Made In America suggestions? Please comment below!

Update: Thanks to all the commenters for adding new suggestions to the list and for pointing out that some of the ones I listed may not belong. Since Cabela's is a mail order catalog and does not make any products itself, we included it on the list although they are importing products made elsewhere. I stand corrected on Red Wing shoes -- it makes all but a few casual shoes and boots in China so I would take it off this list.


NOTHING IS MADE IN AMERICA ANYMORE !!!

when i was in elementary school, we didnt fear the teachers, but we defiantly listened to what they said.

we did not have a 3 strikes you are out, it was one warning and
then after that, you went into some serious negotiations
with the teacher about leniency.


while subbing the 6th grade, i had 6ft 200lb kids try to
"stare" me down. didnt work very well on their part.

i just immediately sent them out of class to stand in the hall for the rest of the class.

i didnt have to deal with them & the interruption to the class was immediately solved.
