  1. They definitely are somewhat to the left in many ways, but none of them include their weekly market recap. That's like the idiot from some minority rights advocacy group (could have been NAACP, but I'm not certain) a few years ago who was complaining about the "racism" in Hollywood because films include things like black cats, yellow taxi cabs and red firetrucks.
  2. Fail. The leadoff line in the article is "Stocks managed gains for the second week in a row despite tumbling Friday, as investors pulled back after the recent run." [emphasis mine]. Wow, those commie bastards almost just admitted how much they wish they could pick VA Bills's pocket and give the $$$ to ACORN to fund sub-prime crack house development. CNN's aftermarket FRIDAY business headline almost always summarizes the WEEKLY stock market movement. Whether it's up or down. And often puts it in context (down for 3rd week in a row, up for 2nd, whatever). Finally, in the context of the wild swings of the past 6 months or so, 122 pts on the DOW is hardly a "hammering". More like a faint tapping.
  3. It depends on what the definition of "pork" is....
  4. Never cared for the stuff myself; made me feel stupid and nauseated, and that's not exactly something I strive for. That said, I have no problem with legalization provided that severe penalties are enforced for actions that threaten public safety (DUI/DWI, operating heavy equipment while impaired, etc.)
  5. I can't spend much time on these boards, so when I have a clear shot, I gotta take it.
  6. If you had the slightest clue how utterly ignorant this statement is, you'd not only change to a new handle, you'd also change your IP. Better yet, your ISP.
  7. You read English at the rate of 0.8 words per second? So, what's your first language?
  8. Maybe they gave him a free brain transplant before being discharged. That could explain the diagnosis.
  9. That would go against the Bills' tradition of letting their best players go for nothing, and needing to use a high draft pick to fill the holes they create.
  10. That would possibly be the only pay-for-view event I'd ever shell out $$ to see.
  11. Yeah, gale force wind conditions are the perfect time to start flinging the pigskin all over the place.
  12. If there's any karma at all, the sideline official will get run over and squashed later in the game for that BLATANT non-call.
  13. Hate bacon. Always have. I like brussels sprouts, broccoli, spinach. Peas, not so much.
  14. Thought that went without saying...I was just economizing on posts & combined chuckle & serious reply, only I forgot the chuckle part.
  15. Still works out to $10K / household. I wouldn't turn it down. I'll need a car soon, when my soon-to-be 16 year old Saturn finally bites the dust.
  16. I get 11.5 trillion -- I think you're off by a factor of 10.
  17. He needs to tie it onto a crossbow bolt and staple the thing to Walt "Just Give it to Them" Coleman's !@#$ing chest.
