I know this is way off topic but I had to vent somewhere.. I am reading an article on Netscape about Tom Ridge saying he is going to have to retire from being the HOmeland Security Secretary and work in the private sector to ern enough money to put his teenager boys through college. I guess I can't blame him really because according to the article he only makes a measly $175,000 a year and before that as governor he made an even more measly $138,316 a year. But I guess when you bu your house for $784.800 money might get kinda tight there.... On the bright side it does say that he owns between $122,000 and $787,000 in stocks and bonds along with ownership in several large companies including Walt Disney,Nike,General Electric and others so at least maybe he won't go hungry.... Funny thing is I think if I could make $75,000 a year I could put my kids through school, I know people ho are doing it on ALOT less! OK I have vented, I feel better now .:)
