concerned about the term refugee used to describe the people from New Orleans.
Refugee is one who is fleeing in search of refuge, as from war or political
oppression. That is according to the American Heritage Dictionary Fourth
Edition copyright 2000. Please e-mail me back. I am a 56 year old mother of
four adult
children. We have been the import of this nation for quite some time and
things don't seem to be getting any better even when we try to educate
ourselves to come up out of the dung of life. There are some personal issues
that I have been pledged by things that no one else will help me try and find
a solution for maybe if you hear what I have to say you'll be able to help me
and if not then I will understand. Billo: Helen, I understand what you are saying, but I wonder if you don't have me confused with the Bill O'Reilly from Fox News. I think that the term refugee is fine since your dictionary is only using the examples of war or political oppression as examples, "as from". Perhaps it would be more accurate to describe them as "storm refugees". |

is asking people to open up there homes for the people of hurricane Katrina. I
think she should set an example and open up the Texas ranch!! Billo: I couldn't agree more! I'm sure that the Bushes, Clintons, Regans, Carters, and Fords all have multiple homes that they can all open up for storm refugees. As a matter of fact, how about the Trumps, Hiltons, Gates and Iaccoas of the world. Let's see some more corporate leadership as well. |

| Comments: | You once did
a rant on the issue of hand-washing,
and how the process you described was
somewhat counter-intuitive. Just today, another thought occurred to me along
those lines. I was washing my hands before eating lunch today (at Tandoor, yum!). I go into the restroom, run some water over my hands, lather, rinse, and then dry them off. Perfectly clean. Now in order to get back to my table, I obviously have to open the bathroom door. God only knows what kind of matter is on that doorknob courtesy the other guests who didn't wash their hands. So in retrospect, I realized that I would have been better off not washing my hands rather than have to touch the inside doorknob of the bathroom. Do you follow? Billo: That's why I like to use the paper towel that I dried my with when I open the door. Hey, I'm not germaphobic - but I'm not looking for trouble either! |

| Comments: | You said that
you think we should do animal testing on
endagered animals - unless that wasn't you! I wrote that letter because I think
it is horrible that you would want to test on endagered species! Billo: Thank you for coming back and responding... and yes, that was me. The truth is I am actually against animal testing. The rant was intended to describe the ridiculous in order to illustrate the ridiculous. Suggesting that we began using endangered animals (like Bengal Tigers) for testing is stupid. But it would create corporate demand which in turn would make it profitable for companies to save these creatures from extinction. Imagine if in a year the worldwide number of Bengal Tigers went from 3,000 to 3 million! It is a silly way of getting them off of the endangered species list - although it would work. What did you think of my idea about the rainforests? |

The President made a statement or "Freudian slip" if you will; during his
news conferance on 4/29/05. As I thought about it, it made me furious! 'The congress thought personal accounts were such a good idea they set them up for themselves'. " If they're good enough for Congress they ought to be good enough for the WORKERS". I say this with GREAT emphisis. WE ARE NOT--NOT--NOT THEIR EMPLOYES OR WORKERS!!! THEY WORK FOR US!!! I pray to GOD almighty that this has not become the mindset of our EMPLOYES in Government. But you can bet I'll be listening a little closer to the addresses given to the people from Washington in the future. |

| Comments: | OK. I'm in
on the Holy Water and definitely the superglue issue at 81. If you are going to take the time to buy the bottles, have them blessed and then printed, you like the church should turn a profit. I mean the priest will probably charge a fee to bless the bottle, heck to deliver a bottle during block collection (have a cup of tea and eat a danish or two) will cost you. So I agree an expiration sticker (3 yrs is good) and this way they can recycle the plastic and use over and over til they are 81. All I know is that if and when I am 81 I hope my life is very simple, eat, sleep, and that's about it! I don't want to worry about things breaking besides my hip and other bones, nor should I care at that point. Have a Good Day! Keep them coming! |

Girl Scout cookies, I wouldn't say you're
way off. I looked into the matter, and the Boy Scouts have something that
Girl Scouts don't have, a magazine that all scouts are REQUIRED to subscribe
to called Boys Life. So according to that, there are 90,000,000 subscriptions. At $9 each, that's $810,000,000 in revenue from the Boys Life magazine. Kind of makes thin mint sales look like chump change. But it still begs the question, where the hell is that money going!? Billo: Exactly my point Phil. But I have to tell you; my boys are in the Cub Scouts, and Boy's Life is not required for them. Maybe that's a Boy Scouts thing only.

| Comments: | Hey Billo, Haven't commented in a while, I apologize. Merry Christmas! On the outsourcing issue, I think it's ironic that 30 years ago, my parents made the not-so-easy transition from India to America so that one day their kids would have better educations and better job opportunities. And now that I've spent a bizillion dollars on a college education (computer science), they're shipping those job opportunities right back over to India. I seriously doubt a bill advocating the outsourcing of lawyers would ever pass, seeing as how it would just result in more lawsuits against big business. I'm actually not sure what to think of the outsourcing issue. As a programmer and an Indian-American, you'd think I would be against it (I don't want my cousins taking my job, those jerks!). It seems as though the trend will be that any white-collar jobs that can possibly be outsourced will be. That could turn out to be a disastrous outcome, or maybe it could force the American workforce to evolve into a body that offers services that are un-outsourceable. Since manufacturing jobs are being outsourced, doesn't that mean Americans have to become smarter to get jobs? Isn't that a good thing, or does that just mean that more people will be wasting money on overpriced college educations? Will the American workforce adapt, or will we be expanding the lower class to contain a group of people who are domestically unemployable? I'm not sure what the long term ramifications of outsourcing are. Is outsourcing the story of our nation, or is that not a fair comparison because immigrant workforces kept the money within the American economy? Is it the reason why products are affordable, or will it be our economic downfall? i read somewhere that 90% of all products manufactured in China are sold in the U.S., and that 40 cents out of every American dollar goes to Chinese-made products. Ironically, that would make us the biggest supporters of communism. Phil P.S. Will program for food Billo: Oh how you do go on... I’m not sure if this is in any way related but I read somewhere that 20 cents out of every American dollar is spent at Indian casinos owned by Native-Americans. And 80 percent of that 20 cents goes right back into America. Does that make sense? Now here is my two cents: as a non-casino owning native American, I’m just wondering how I can pick up on the scent of some of that money. Notice, I’m a native American, not a naturalized American, or a Native-American, Irish-American, American Indian, Indian-American or any of that nonsense. |

correction on your slamming of Herr's

chips in your direct run down and comments on Herr's Potato chips varities.
WOW is a Frito Lay brand. I have been eating Herr's potato chips my whole life
and I love them. To confuse them with Frito Lay is
sacralige. I personally
love the Sour Cream & Onion and I don't care what they are made of. I can
remember being 6 or 7 at the public swimming pool in my home town and getting
a bag of these from the snack bar and sitting there in the sun with wet pool
hands eating my chips. I am 32 now. That's a long time to remember a potato
chip. Herr's potato chips are the best. Somewhere out there I am sure there is
a 7 year old kid making a new memory with a bag of Salt
& Pepper Herr's Potato Chips. Billo: That's a great story. And sure, I'll admit, that in my fevered rants I may occasionally cross brands, alter the truth and even completely ignore or even make up facts, but none of this should be held against me or in any way diminish the impact of the message. That being: if you want the great taste of: pepper, ketchup, vinegar, BBQ sauce, or cheese on your potato chips, then get off of your lazy ass and put it on yourself! |

She busts out a tupperware bowl containing an omelet and some greasy sausage. "Atkins," she says by way of explanation. I'm completely astonished that is diet food, but say nothing. "How many carbs are in your cereal?" she asks. The bowl is one of those packaged, one serving dealies, so I just look at the label and tell her 24 grams. She gasps in astonishment and says, "That's more carbs than I eat all day!" I'm not kidding Billo. This really happened. She was eating some greasy
omelet and sausage, and thought she was eating healthier than me, eating corn
flakes. CORN FLAKES!!! I mean, maybe she will lose more weight in the short
term, but her heart will eventually explode, right? |

Here's my question, why the hell didn't you just run for president yourself? The Dems could use someone who actually has a personality. Billo: The corporate endorsement thing could be a little tricky, but all candidates get endorsements and campaign contributions. Fox could easily put a dollar value on the airtime for the show and write the proper percentage off as a campaign contribution.

| Comments: | Now I don't
want to get off on a rant here, but, these days, truth in media has been
pushed further into the backseat than loose change during a shuttle launch. In today's information economy, the old journalistic mandate of "Get it fast, first, and right" has been downsized to just getting it fast and first. Today's idea of an "investigative report" is one they remembered to run a spell-check on. And the line between fact and opinion gets stepped on more frequently than the feet of a circus clown slow-dancing with a scuba diver. Also I don't trust anything said by a news anchor who doesn't have a believable hairpiece. How am I supposed to take seriously any guy with hair that makes the molded plastic thatch on a G.I. Joe's head look natural? But on the whole, there is no liberal or conservative bias? Come on... Let's be honest with ourselves. You want the truth? You can't stay awake for the truth. We want police chases, mudslides, and world leaders caught on tape having sex with their daughter's piano teacher. When we come home from a hard day at the office, all we want is to kick our feet up on the coffee table, pop open a cold one, turn on the television, and be reassured that everyone in the world is more f^cked up than you are, especially the people reporting on it. Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong. Dennis Miller |

| Comments: | Dear Bill,
I am a big fan of you as well as your show. I am saddened however, by the media attention to the alleged torture of the Iraq prisoners. What about the dragging of our military, when killed through the streets of Irag, and the body parts strung up for the citizens of Irag to see not to mention the families of these young men. I served, proudly in the United States Army during World War II. We were supported by the American citizens. We cannot fight a war with "Peace Time" rules. Thank you, Edward Clark Billo: Mr Clark, Although my name is Bill O'Reilly, and I do enjoy a good rant, I am not the Bill O'Reilly from Fox News. But I too am saddened by the media attention to the abuse of any prisoners. Islamic Militants hate us enough already, those images will only further insight them. Furthermore, the US military is the most powerful, and fiercest force that the world has ever known. I believe that not only should our enemies fear us for our might, but that the whole world should respect us for our compassion. Images such as these make us appear to be no better than the enemies that we battle. The images of torture to our military and the displays made of their bodies are equally disturbing. Where is the outcry from the United Nations and the European Community over that? The media outlets show these images when they happen and then quickly forget them. But how long will they focus on the alleged torture images that undermine our national character? Just like you, my father served proudly in WWII. People like to say that things were simpler back then, but I don't agree. I think that the difference back then was that the media was motivated not only by money, but also by patriotism. The media gives the news, but only the news that sells. And if this week people are tuning in to see sensational images of US soldiers being dragged through the streets than that’s what the lead story will be. The media does not care if they sway the support of America’s citizens. The media only cares if it gets higher ratings than the competition – and to hell with the consequences. I suppose that I’ve already taken up enough of your time. Let me say, thank you for your comments, and I’ll keep you in my thoughts on Memorial Day. |

| Comments: | " People in Philadelphia don't know how to walk." I never realized this until someone who's not a Philadelphia native pointed it out to me. We don't know how to walk, especially 'round my way. Two people in Philly walking side by side will invariably do so in such a manner that they take up the entire width of the block, so that there's no way of walking past them. I have never seen this accomplished in any other city, nor can I even begin to describe the physics behind it. People in Philly will also stop right in the middle of walking on a narrow, crowded street, no matter how many people it inconveniences. I'll be running, running mind you, to catch the train in the morning, and a guy running just as fast as I am right in front of me will stop dead in his tracks to investigate an interesting looking wad of phlegm on the subway floor. Unbelievable. |

worry about where all that steam comes
from. And don't try to determine its
exact chemical composition either. Mind(control) your own business. If we
wanted you to know we would tell you. Now stop being stupid and ignorant. Why not go watch some cable television instead of asking your dumb questions? Billo: ... aaahhh ...ok... |

want to say that you are stupid (plenty of other folks already do that), maybe
you are just ignorant.
Here is info regarding the steam coming
from vents in Center City Philadelphia sidewalks. Billo: I don't know.. It all seems rather strange, and I think it stinks of a conspiricy or a coverup of some kind. Sure, the minute someone asks about the steam and ... BANG!! "Here's a brochure to explain it away. Now don't ask any more questions or we'll call you stupid and ignorant (again)!" In the words of the famous Klilngon playwright, "Me thinks thou dost protest too much." Nice try, but we're on to you now. SCOATS IS PART OF THE SYSTEM EVERYONE!! HE'S BEEN COMPROMISED BY THE MAN!! |

Great Site! Glad to see you're still the same Bill I remember from Uncle
Eddie's place of employment (Zaberer's to the other folk)always got something
to talk about!! Also, it was great to see you again, haven't changed much
since high school! By the way, think you can post your Margarita Recipe,
otherwise I'll give you something to Rant about!!!
Henen Billo: It was great to see you too, and I hope to see you again. I'll eventually post it on a page, but for now the basic recipe is: 6oz Tequila; 4oz Triple Sec; 1/2 can of lemon or limeade; fill the blender with ice and let her rip. |

Just two minutes before reading your rant the \\$250,000 question on Millionaire (10/4/01) was...I can't remeber it exaclty, but it was something along the lines of, "Which of the is not a name of one of the Cow stomachs?". And then the list four words that look like they could be the names of cow stomachs. Also you talk about all the "missing" cow parts, and wanting to know where they are going.

random thoughts for 9/28. Especially the I can't believe it's not butter
thing. But I gotta say they have all different kinds of ringers for cell
phones. www.jippii.co.uk is a site
that I think has a lot. But you need some fancy cell phone, that I don't
have. Mine's more like a cell phone booth, it's old.
Billo: So you are telling me that they have ALREADY stolen my idea!! I checked it out, it is still just a bunch of beeps and tons. And if you think your cell phone is old - I have a rotary cell phone! Actually that is another one of my ideas. Take the "guts" from an old rotary phone and replace it with a cell phone. I think that would look great at work! |
