Last night, we had some friends over. We played Ticket to Ride. I wasn’t playing to win really (most of the people hadn’t played). About 1/2 way through, I thought I really had a chance.

Something tells me that Oracle and sap wouldn’t have been happy with that last slide. Way to proofread the presentation.
Oracle isn’t split between line…neither is sap

We need to do something about the national debt. I’m not 100% sure what I think about this idea, but I am for states exerting their rights and powers over the Federal government.
