Are we missing any of the regulars? Texas man dies while raping elderly woman CHICAGO (AFP) – A Texas man died while raping a 77-year-old woman, local media reported. Isabel Chavelo Gutierrez, 53, broke into the woman's rural home armed with a knife and attacked her. But in the...

You won't get any better advice than Pension_Admin already provided. There certainly won't be anything easier than calling them up and dumping it in their lap. Why are you even asking for anything else? Kinda reminds me of this old joke: A group of girlfriends is on vacation when they...

Too weak. In their minds, they are owed every nickel plus a couple more. To the extent that they are not living large like some hollywood rapper is the extent to which they have been stolen from, unjustly deprived of that lifestyle they want and so clearly deserve.

What? And give up privileged minority status? Back when my people (buncha drunken Irish - a well deserved stereotype I might add - hic) were the underclass nobody really cared to hear your sob story. If anybody had talked about White Guilt, nobody would have understood the concept enough to...

Damn. He musta been a very small guy to be riding a greyhound. ;)

Exactly. But with even more nothing than that. :) This situation has plenty of empty posturing and other posturing that is full of it. Neither republicans nor democrats are ready to engage in the sort of brutal cuts that are needed. If they did engage in this, they'd be absolutely...

A friend of mine was in a similar situation. His wife was ready to divorce him and wanted half his income for the rest of his life. He had this evil bastard combo lawyer/doctor who advised him to make love to his wife morning, noon and night. Every chance at every opportunity. Keep in mind...

That was the point of the question AAA raised. One presumes that the casinos have much more knowledge about this than all of us put together. There is no question that if they offered this 20 point deal, then it generally was a good idea and made them money somehow. Perhaps not in this...

Surely thou jests. If you have a job, money and self respect then you really don't need Big Government. The more of those things you have, the more you see a sprawling, tax-sucking, bloated, wasteful bureaucracy devoted to incomprehensible regulations, laws and rules not only as not helpful...

Player walks into the casino with 100 large, wins 49k, loses 51k, gets 10.2k refunded. He leaves with 108.2k. Some assumptions, of course. Perfect standard play, same size wager every hand. But not unreasonable. There must be other factors.

That's what I was wondering. If they made that deal, they must have had good reason to expect to still make money, presumably they have a track record of this guys hands. OTOH gamblers are so emotional. The house may have studies that show offering a 20 point HC to a whale generally...

Technically our real short term rates are subzero. But who's counting? :D

They are dead serious. And this is awesome. A bunch of dickless wonders like this competing with us for the babes? That rocks. Any woman that chooses one of these losers deserves what she gets, does *not* deserve to be anywhere near me plus I'd prefer to never be around them either. We're...

And a couple quarters later it looks a lot like that perception is spot on.

Benji announces in August in Jackson Hole. ;) But it won't be called QE3. Don't forget, Helio Benji is of that group that thinks the Great Depression double dipped because we stopped spending, and believes that if we had only borrowed and spent enough we would have crawled out of it...

I wrote a paper about this 25 years ago and came to the conclusion (then) that this would never work. 20 years later, we're still fighting. Think of how much money we've wasted. Drugs should be a source of funds for the government, not an endless hole where we dump tax dollars.

There's the money quote, right at the very end. Let me roll out the next few: "With the expected end of QE<S>2 3 4</S> 5 within reach, the U.S. economy is in a situation where its only form of life support is about to be ripped away from it."

Weak minded fools. How gullible do you have to be when even ZH isn't buying it? Moved to CC.

As Jake Blues: "How much for the women?"
