me not using my shift key has nothing to do with my writing skill or my grammar ability. on my computer i get lazy. i don't like using the shift button. on the job there is no laziness involved. i have to sign for everything i do or touch on the engine. i can be sent to prison if i am found guilty of being negligent of wrong mechanic procedure.

these are for 2010
Funding Highlights:
• Provides $533.7 billion for the Department of Defense base budget in 2010, a four-percent
increase over 2009.
• Includes $75.5 billion in supplemental appropriations for 2009 and $130.0 billion for 2010 to
support ongoing overseas contingency operations, while increasing efforts in Afghanistan and
drawing down troops from Iraq responsibly.
• Supports a transparent budget process, which simultaneously and separately requests
estimated base budget and overseas contingency operations costs.

i can see this is turning into a big debate. that is not what i was trying to do. i can only express my thoughts about what i see happening where i am living and working. that is what i was pursuing, i wanted to express my thoughts. boy did i ever open up a can of worms. i think i will stick to my poems and humor. even though i'm not that good.
