The remnants of the sign you see here is all that's left of Gimbels department store warehouse between 31st and 32nd Streets. At one time, the largest department store chain in the country, Gimbels closed its doors in Herald Square in New York in 1987.

the Canadian government allows American hospitals to take in patients Canada cannot help, as a safety valve. Things have gotten so bad in the past few years, Canada has had to face the fact that private clinics now supply services for a fee that public clinics cannot supply for free

One of the dirty secrets of Canadian Health Care is that without the US health care system as a backup it would fail miserably. Becasue it is a rationed system, Canada Health Care does not have enough doctors, medical equipment or clinics to care of all Canadians.

what is more important than health care? I quickly answered myself: food care. Many of us can go decades through life without ever needing to see a doctor or need medical care; food on the other hand we need every day. So food care is one thing that the government should get involved in. I'm not saying food should be free, but rather that there should be a government option to the supply of food.

Before I discuss children fainting, let me first say: take your kid to the doctor. I write "doctor" rather than "health care professional" because you may be reading this a few years from now and if Obama gets his Health Care Bill passed the term "health care professional" will mean a government idiot bureaucrat although I am being redundant.

In a recent chat on a local bulletin board with J.C., a fellow Bayonne citizen, we were discussing the pros and cons of wax candles when he sadly reflected upon the removal of wax candles years ago in Bayonne churches and the switch to electronic ones. He hasn't lit a prayer candle since the change. "Its stupid. Whats spiritual about turning on a light bulb?" he opined.

There has been a rise recently in the popularity of colon cleansers in the United States even though there has been no definitive scientific research done to determine whether or not colon cleansing is helpful or not.

I know with absolute certainty that any program that "helps" the poor by taking money from someone else, actually hurts the poor. The Great Depression was a great depression instead of a short recession precisely because our government socialized our economy with measures that spent our monies on feel good projects that did absolutely nothing to improve the situation.

I was just thinking about some of the emails going around that say, "Hitler took over the car companies, then health care and then he killed the Jews." As if taking over car companies and then healthcare makes it a historical imperative that the killing of Jews follows.

In a moment I'm going to tell you a secret. Obama knows this secret but more than half of this country does not. Castro knows the secret as well; Mao Tse Tung knew it; so did Joseph Stalin.

Listen ladies, the purpose of perfume is to enhance the natural fragrance of the human body, not to smother it as a cat shoves litter over its feces. Perfume should be applied gently and sparsely. Pretend you are atomizing microscopic droplets of diamonds - be very frugal. Let me tell you the correct way to apply perfume to the delicate female form.

about one out of every seven Canadian physicians sends someone to the United States every year for treatment. If it were not for the American Health Care System, Canada's would implode. Something that Michael Moore forgot to mention.

Once you bathe them, all women of the same race smell the same.

Mothers sleep better if they sleep with their babies because the baby cries less, nursing is easier, and the baby goes to sleep faster and easier (allowing mother to get more sleep)

One of the problems with being on vacation is that it's very difficult to make perfect hardboiled eggs. The reason for this is that the main ingredient is two-week-old eggs.

Before the young girl reaches the age of nine a man may engage in all kinds of nasties to the young girl as long as there is no penetration, for example, sexual acts such as foreplay, rubbing, kissing and sodomy are allowed.

One of the saddest things to see is how Wal-Mart, by constantly forcing its vendors to come up with cheaper products each year eventually forces any local industry to set up shop in China where controls are almost non-existent and labor practices border on slavery.

I don't have as much a problem with Chinese products since I have never shopped in a Wal-Mart and never will. In fact, I have never even stepped into a Wal-Mart in my life.

If the Government made shoes then shoelaces would cost $100, just as a single aspirin in a hospital today costs $10 or more. We don't need more government interference in our health system, we need less.

I am amazed that so many people have a negative view of breast-feeding or think there is some magical, biological or moral cutoff period.
