Nice boobs. When old Ronald was your president your country was a real
super power. But your power is dwindling fast now. You are owned by
the Chinese. I am not gloating, just stating a fact. I would prefer
the old ways myself. F

Cut & paste those boobs on a 12 year old and it is your fantasy.

Ronald Reagan started the rot, along with Thatcher.
Derugulation of media and finance was all that was
required. The rest followed. And the Chinese don't
own the country, it's the banksters - who also own
the Chinese. USA - the country that sold it's birthright
for a mess of pottage. (Translation for those who need
it, and sadly many do : You gave away your matchless
manufacturing and technological capacity and expertise
for a load of Chinese consumer rubbish under the guise
of outsourcing).

Regarding the translation comment, this is just too close to home to let go
by without comment.

A bit of personal history. I worked for IBM in various parts of product
development from 1971 through 2002. From 1971 until 1995 I was in Lexington,
Ky. which was (through most of this period) the "Office Products Division".

OPD was mostly the (very profitable) typewriter product line. But from
Lexington we spun off a line of Workstation Full Screen editors (WAY before
PC's and this was the genesis of the Austin, Tx site) and full page printers
(some the the very first laser printers were developed by IBM in the early
1970's and this stuff was sent to Boulder, Co). Every new product that we
came up with was shipped out to avoid clashing with manufacturing of the
immensely profitable Selectric Typewriter.

The Selectric was a mechanical marvel and needed a high level of
manufacturing skill to produce. But by the early 1980's technology changes
made two things obvious.

1) All this mechanical marvel-ness was soon to be non-competitive
2) The replacements for #1 would require a complete re-tooling of our
manufacturing capacity.

So IBM literally invested $450M dollars in wgat was for that timeframe high
tech manufacturing capability (mostly robotics kind of stuff). IBM-Lexington
moved to simpler print technologies in typewriters with electronic controls
and to low-end printers (PC stuff was just coming online in the
US/elsewhere), trying to make manufacturing capacity (using never before or
almost never-before implemented manufacturing technologies) and new
development designs coming together simultaneously. And we proved that if
you have enough money ($450M which is a TON of money for an individual
company) you can make that happen.

6 years after that stuff came online (IMHO, and biased opinion, it was a
helluva accomplishment), IBM-Lexington had been sold to a private investment
firm (the genesis of Lexmark) and 3 years after that the vast majority of
this manufacturing had been off-shored.

We didn't give manufacturing technology and expertise away. Guys like me (in
development engineering) engineered the need for it out of the products
(with the occasional, and very focused, 'engine technologies').

Back to golf.

ps. I recall vividly a conversation with a peer in manufacturing engineering
back in 1988. He said "5 years ago they told me that high tech would save
manufacturing in the US. Now successful integration of development and
manufacturing engineering means simply that manufacturing is nothing more
than putting tops on bottoms. God how I wish we could go back to the days of
the Selectric."

This certainly is not golf related!

I jacked off on the golf course to this pic.
There, now it's golf related.

They'd be glad if she just had a small brain instead of big boobs.
