Dig a moat the length of the Mexican border,
take the alligators from Florida and put them in there,
then take the dirt to fill the levies in New-Orleans.
A win win situation.

Any other problems you would like for me to
solve?

Regards,
Marcel

Great solution. Seems to take care of all sorts of problems.

Maybe we should make you the go-to-guy for problems. Could you do something about taxes and gas prices?

Sorry for the intrusion to your problem solving but the alley ma gaters are already in Louisiana--and they are HUGE and right now hungry... I live 60 miles from Shreveport--20 miles to the statew line and I hear they are a real problem down there already- so back to the drawing board my friend.. that gater won't fly

The gators are going to live in the moat along the Mexican border, not Louisiana. You can send the Louisiana gators there too, there's enough food for all of them!

Flying gators. Now maybe there's an idea. We could pyt wings on the gators to teach them to fly up and down the border to patrol it. Anyone caught crossing is instantly eaten.

I'm bored at work today and I think it's destroying my brain.

Naaah ,I'm not so sure about the gator idea.They'd just shoot 'em and eat 'em.How about putting some pirahna's in there.They couldn't see them coming in for the attack.

Cool

Sounds good, Sharon, but don't put any hares in the stew. People hate to find a hare in their stew!

I once had an old recipe book that had a dish called Hare Pie!
The instructions were hilarious.
First skin and clean your hare!

Today it seems if it doesnt come out of a box most people cant cook it.

Default Marcel....

I thought of you today and your solution to the border..
while I was having lunch and reading yesterday's paper I came across this clip in our local news paper....

the title..

A $95 Margarita? Thanks, California...
The Four Seasons Hotel in Downtown Austin Texas is selling a $95 margarita. That proves President Bush is putting the 6000 National Guard Troops along the wrong border. Instead of stationing soldiers along the Mexican border to keep out the illegal immigrants. Bush should deploy the military along the Texas-New Mexico border to keep the high-rolling Californians from entering the Lone Star State of Texas..

The typical La La land dude unloads his 1,500 square foot house in California for $1.5 million and then moves to Austin and buys a house for less than 1/2 that price. soon they would be the only ones who could afford the $95 Rita and who could afford to live in the Lone Star State of Texas..

It was pretty much blaming the Californians for the higher cost of living in Texas...

Then it said that they need to string the Marines from British Columbia to New Brunswick to keep out the Canadians because they own all the Hotels in Texas..

The Funny part is that...
my brother just moved to Texas, he sold his 2 bedroom, 1 bath California house for $750,000 and move to Little Elm Texas and bought a custom 5 bedroom 3 bath on a 1/2 acre for $250,000.. he's having a pool and spa put in for $40,000 which would cost over $120,000 here in California...

We would like to move to Montana but the Californians are doing the same thing to that state too....

California SUCK!
