Note to self - avoid airplanes being held together with duct tape. :D

No good deed goes unpunished.

Up on usenet, btw.

The frog blinks. Sarkozy yields on ECB crisis role, pressure on Italy http://beta.finance.yahoo.com/news/sarkozy-yields-ecb-crisis-role-103657067.html

So a one in a 150 year event is scheduled for 2012, eh? Nice.

It's silly things like this that bring the internet to the lowest common denominator. It was a goat not a camel! Sheesh. :D Moved to CC.

Good grief. This is getting crazy when the fed is looking at 4% mortgage rates and thinking "Man, that's just too damn high. We should drop it down some more." People reading about this 50 years from now will be thinking "WTF was wrong with these idiots?"

The length of can travel per kick seems to be on a downward trend. One presumes that (one way or another) the end approaches.

And finally for tonight, I'd like to point out that absolutely nobody is arguing the central point of my post: Not only do few people care, but pretty much everyone does. It might have been (probably was?) different back when this country was formed, but now folks see a dollar in your...

See my quote above on losers. Actually, read a lot of my stuff, you'll learn some things. Nowhere have I ever said that someone without money is a loser. Have you ever read that quote about assuming things? ;)

It's actually founded upon a widespread idea that the economy is a giant pizza and if someone takes too many slices all you have to feed your family is the box. I kid you not (still). People honestly believe that if you make a dollar more, that means somebody else made a dollar less...

You are misguided. Not only do more than 10% care about what everyone else makes, but most people do, probably closer to 90% than 10. I know, it's nuts. Easy to verify. Go up to some friends and say "Dude, got a couple questions for you. How'd you feel if you went in to the office tomorrow...

One of these days they're gonna kick that can and instead of flying down the road, it's gonna blow up.

LMAO. What a circus. It must be even worse than I thought. These guys have lost their damn minds.

Wow, I never realized that the people in Ohio absolutely hate Michiganders till I saw this story: Lions and tigers shot in Ohio http://news.yahoo.com/lions-tigers-shot-ohio-owner-freed-them-212126865.html

The usual suspects (great movie, BTW). Government makes a decision on what to do with the taxpayers money, then leverages the bejebbers out of it. Basically, they are doubling down (again) on a loser. Probably everyone here knows how well that works. People have absolutely lost their damn...

I've never understood that. Once, I worked at a place making decent money, then discovered that many other people were making more than double what I was! I was so happy to see all that opportunity that I almost did cartwheels down the aisle!

Rand made that point in the 20th Century Motor Company debacle in Atlas Shrugged. People were looking to dip their hands in the pockets of others further up the ladder without realizing that their own pockets were being eyed by people even further down. Interesting section of the book, too bad...
