I have had those road side tacos in mexico (although they costs 2.5 pesos when i was there in 2005.) They are so tiny, you really have to order 8 to 10 of them to fill you up. I dont even think eatting one would be enough to fill up the belly of a 2 year old.

Sorry...where was food? you didnt really explain that yet.

wow...bought for 1% of its original costs of 55 million in 1975! And that was back when $55 million was actually worth something.

I'm kind of in the middle here. I dont think people should have to pay for others healthcare, but on the other hand the health care industry is littered with corruption and too much bureaucracy that health care cant possibly be afforded by anyone but insured and the rich. What needs to happen...

Ok...global warming causes the temperature to get higher in the air and in the water. Water evaporates fasters if its warmer meaning more clouds. More clouds means less sun to get in and warm the planet meaning the temperature will get colder which means that there will be less evaporation...

Its basically talking about the standard at which we judge ourselves and we shouldnt judge ourselves by how others act or what others think of us. For instance. I go up to a kid who is smoking cigarrettes and tell him he shouldnt be doing that. He says to me... "well at least im not as...

After writing that, i did a little more research and didnt realize how bad Vegas real estate collapsed. You can get a 2500 sq ft home there now for under 100k. Heck...live like a king in a 4700 sq ft home with 5 bed/5baths for 160k...

I bought a house in vegas in 2001 for 148k. Sold it in 2005 for 293k Refused to buy another house despite realtors saying real estate never goes down. So now its a few years later and i wonder about the people that bought my house. I kind of feel like i pulled one over on them. I knew...

Its an illusion. It sounds like a good deal because when you hear 30k you are thinking 30k in todays money, but that 30k is really 1960s money. Whatever he could sell the house for today would buy no more than it would in the 1960s. For instance...lets look at gold. $30k would buy you...

When inflation is at 10%...COLA is usually less...maybe 4 or 5%. You end up losing money every year until inflation comes down. If inflation was so good, then hyperinflation should be really good. Go ask any of the countries that have or had hyperinflation if they got a 5000% COLA when...

A classic example of having all the wrong instincts. Since you are only trading 100 shares and scalping for pennies...next time you think you should buy...go short. When you think you should short...buy. Its only a small amount of money so you should experiment with this as crazy as it...

Well isnt that pretty much what everyone in america does now? How many women in the US are virgins before they get married? None, because its illegal to get married at 13. I really dont know how some of you can differentiate between a prostitute and a woman that has had sex with 20...

What unemployment rates? Oh do you mean those 10% of the people that are on an 18-month PAID vacation?

How many producing jobs have disappeared since the 80s though? For instance...back in the 80s, if you called a company, you get an operator to help you. Today...you get a computer telling you to push buttons or go to their website if you want help. When you finally do get a real person...

Einstein was a smart man. He had an IQ of 160. Of course Da Vinci had an IQ of 220+ and he believed in the existence of God and the existence of a soul. Advantage....Da Vinci. So tell me Vhehn...do you think you are smarter than Da Vinci? That you "figured out" something that he...
