Well they're a very good option even if they're not cheaper, and in my
case Lipitor was cheaper.
However for those like myself, and there's plenty of them to be found
if you do a search online, Lipitor can only be described as pure evil.
The side effects just don't make the drug worthwhile and as soon as
their copyright protection expires they'll probably release a better
statin which will render Lipitor obsolete.

I did slave labor like that when I was in the Navy. But hard labor is
something to escape from. Anyone who takes pride in being a hard worker is
some kind of moron.

Lawyers get many hundreds of dollars an hour for doing practically nothing.
They are the best example I can think of when it comes to a worthless
profession. At least dentists and doctors occasionally do some real work
which benefits their customers.

Apparently, from his response, Tom begs to differ.
Say there, Conan the Librarian, you lugubrious laggard and parasitic
sloth, you should perform a hard days one day so that you can
formulate an opinion regarding what that entails before spewing your
ill-conceived disdain of the working man. For what it's worth,
working with the mind can be harder than working with the body. I've
done both and know what hard work is. As a profession, where do you
think lackadaisical troglodyte internet troll ranks with civil
engineer and IT specialist? Never mind ... rhetorical.

Let me see if I have this right. Cerebral work is not hard work and
should be disdained because it is not hard, but, then again, hard (ie
physical) work is to be avoided because it is hard. I guess then all
work, of any type, is to be disdained, avoided and one should not take
pride in working but rather pride in avoiding work of any kind.
Irrationality reigns and the conundrum continues. So who is the moron
here? Readers cast your votes.

Then you haven't been driving for many years. It happens all the time.
Its what happens when people drive too fast, suddenly brake and the
other person behind, as happens all too often, isnt the regulatory
distance back.

Nope, never seen a rear-ender due to someone braking for a red light, or a
camera. I've seen rear enders in traffic and on motorways and under other
circumstances ...

I'm glad for you. I haven't seen it either. But that is what we call
anecdotal evidence. The statistics are here:

I haven't seen anyone get struck by lightning but I understand that it
does happen.

Maybe it's because the odds are the same.
The situation around here BEFORE was very funny... Cars would be slow
to turn left with the arrow, but kept going long after the light

Big Brother already does that service for you. He decides that you
can't freely import cars from Europe. They must meet certain
standards, the same standards SUVs don't meet because they are not
technically cars but trucks, and yet you can drive them with a regular
license.
It sounds complicated but it's all about money. ;)

Chavez' socialism allows you to fill up a gas guzzler's tank with two
bucks. Something most Americans don't know or else they would turn
socialist.

I'm trying to find out the best adhesive for gluing leather shoes back on
to a rubber sole.
I know the polyurethane adhesive that came in tubes for gluing on 'stick on
soles' that we got from Woolworths was very good, but even if i could buy it
now, it was expensive for just a smallish tube.
Looking on some sites that supply to the shoe trade, I can see that they
sell: Neoprene cement, rubber solution, synthetic vinyl cement and
polyurethane.
Does anyone have an idea which would be the best bet, without it costing a
fortune?
I know that the polyurethane glue i used from Woolworths was very good, but
i'm thinking that buying a litre tin (which is the smallest quantity i've
seen for sale on these sites) might well all dry up quite quickly since my
rate of using it will be quite slow.
Thanks for any help.

I don't mean to take the p but did you possibly mean Shoe Goo? (See eg
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Shoe-Goo-Repair-Adhesive-Clear/dp/B0030ZULM4/ref=sr_1_1?s=shoes&ie=UTF8&qid=1285773424&sr=1-1)
If so I swear by it for repairs to all sorts of things (soles, heels,
rucksacks, tool rolls etc etc) but I wouldn't turn to it for sticking
soles on.
