In a move that could either send BAC stock limit down overnight or send it soaring (we are still trying to figure out just what is going on here), ------------------ I should look up Ben Grahams caveats on litigation, if I recall, not good. I still can't figure out where Buffett and Trump...

File this under things I didn't know till today. President Barack Obama, former editor of the Harvard Law Review, is no longer a "lawyer". He surrendered his license back in 2008 in order to escape charges he lied on his bar application. A "Voluntary Surrender" is not something where you...

Stunata News: ''Cook promises to improve Apple turnover''.

"Trading code is a high-stakes secret for high-frequency firms that battle each other to earn razor-thin profits on tiny price imbalances in the market. Such firms can make thousands of trades per second and provide much liquidity to the market. High-frequency trading is estimated to be...

Good point.

This is funny as hell. Before Obama goes on vacation he announces he will give a speech on jobs. (Then Steve retires -oops sorry yuk yukk joke- just had to throw that in there). Where was I? Yes, Obama is going to give a speech on employment. Boner says - uhmnnn. sorry we're busy at that...

I find it ironic that at one time (maybe the plan is still on) that Julian Assange (wiki leaks) wanted to make Iceland a world wide internet free censorship country. All the servers in Iceland would be free to post anything they like. Of course the one draw back that never got the project off...

I often wondered what the cost of building a road really is if you stripped out all of the taxes. Not sure I am making sense here, maybe someone could help me out. Say you took the price of a steel I beam for a bridge, you have taxes on the corp, taxes on the fuel to transport it...

The congressional newspaper the Hill reported this week that Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, feels that the current names are too "lily white," and is seeking to have better representation for names reflecting African-Americans and other ethnic groups. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas...

To heck with the story or the details. What have we done with the money? Nothing new and exciting was built, any new infrastruture, projects you know of? If you want your kid to be an astronuat you're going to have to move to a different country. Fema is broke, no money now to really...

Thinks that's bad, try talking to people in person. It's even worse.:D

are the unemployed lazy? ---------------------- Here's how you collect UE. Log in computer with pin number, answer 4 or 5 questions - wait for check in mail. My daughters boyfriend was "once" to lazy to do this. I kicked his ass and then he did it (Steps 1 and 2) . Then his benefits ran...

"China can buy copper then sell it back to us at a profit so that the US mint can make nickles out of it and "sell" them to us for 5 cents. Our fiscal policy is so sound that even nickles cost more than their face value. At current rates 100.00 face value of nickles has a base metal value of...

Too bad. The secret to getting the link to work is in the video.:cool:

Ya know, this is America, why don't they build their own amusement park and make their own rules. Sheesh. Better yet, why don't they buy one and make new rules.

I'm not the least bit surprised. For a long time I used to follow OSUR (they make oral hiv test kits). What a friggin racket the HIV industry is, not just in the US but around the world. I researched HIV in China, Africa the way the US sends foreign aid, I could never beleive what I read...

I was thinking abou this today. I'm sure at one time or another all of us has run into a guy who is just a jinx. The guy has plain old bad luck, "it's always something". You might even be sympathic towards the guy after hearing his stories. In the end though, we have to walk away from the guy...

Obama/Irene The winds added 50 yards to his drive. Booyah!

Thanks. :cool: I'd never seen that, not much of a tv watcher though but I remember reading about the scam (so to speak).

I'm sorry - too funny. "We should pass legislation. Any time a congressman votes for a funding bill to pay for a project like Solyndra, they must be required to put at least 10% of their net worth alongside the government money into that endeavour." Imagine if we did that. :cool:
