Zeitgeist is climate of the times. I know of it in relation to the notion that Hitler was in the right place at the right time.

You, know I'm thinking I need a bailout too. I need one in case I don't make enough money to pay for the luxury items I want to buy or if I can't pay my taxes. Who else can I turn to? :confused: I dropped phone service with BellSouth when I noticed the basic bill went up $1.50 a month, (on...

:rolleyes:Battery charge dropped in flatulence case For a while I thought our streets were safe again. CHARLESTON, West Virginia (AP) -- A West Virginia man accused of passing gas and fanning it toward a police officer no longer faces a battery charge. Jose Cruz says West Virginia police...

I just saw a ticker on CNN that said GM is selling it's plant in France and also the Hummer division. I can't find a link on my newsserver.

McCain't Going? Debate Fate Still Unclear Debate Fate Uncertain Amid Economic Crisis Presidential rivals Barack Obama and John McCain will go to the White House for an economic summit this afternoon, but it's not clear whether McCain will join Obama in Oxford, Miss., on Friday for the first...

Print more money. What they always do.

I'm just trying to help him out with a better excuse. She could bring him this and tell him she's famous!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWDGEaQty_s Wow! Revealing! I told you it was like the savings and loan scandal, and here he is again, first there in the 80's accepting $1M in contributions, and accepting them now? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keating_five "Sen. McCain's campaign manager...

It was clearly a theatrical event designed to make Obama look bad for not following McCain's lead. Someone said he's a wimp and this is the war hero? Maybe Palin will have a suggestion about what to do? Not sure what will come of this though, unless all his supporters now become members of the...

Yes, I need one and have paid taxes long enough.

Economy claims nation's largest Chevy dealer BAY AREA (Bay News 9) -- The nation's largest Chevy dealer closed its dealerships - including two in Florida - this week. Auto retailer Bill Heard Enterprises Inc. announced Wednesday that the company is going out of business. The dealership said in...

No one's mentioned, Freedom, Democracy, or the War on Terror yet today, or how the Joint Strike Fighter will save us from ourselves. :confused:

The writing was on the wall in the early 80's for GM Ford and Chrysler. Back then Chrysler was advertising the American way to beat the pump, showing a Japanese man with boxing gloves punching a gas pump. In response to an article in either Time or Newsweek by Lee Iacocca, I wrote back and...

We know why. :) A running mate in title only.

Well, this is probably going to be the end of GM, and will lead to a lot of unemployed Mexicans. The management of the company should be fine despite their terrible decisions over the years. You can now get a great deal on an economical Cadillac I see on TV. Maybe the 40 mile range of the...

New home sales plummet in August, prices tumble WASHINGTON - New home sales tumbled in August to the slowest pace in 17 years, while the average sales price fell by the largest amount on record, demonstrating the depth of the problem that Washington is trying to solve. The Commerce Department...

Bill Heard closing local Chevrolet dealerships This certainly measures the worstening pulse of the economy. The largest GM dealer in the world. Bet no one saw this coming either? A bailout in order? :cool: http://www.bizjournals.com/houston/stories/2008/09/22/daily35.html

:rofl:

In an ABC poll, 66% favored going on with the debate scheduled for tommorow night. ABC news just seemed to suggest there was some agreement on the terms of the deal. It's possible it will be concluded today, leaving tommorrow night open.

Wow! A great idea.

Well, the real culprit here is the out of control culture we live in. Gotta have it now, on credit, get as much as you can and too bad about everyone and everything else. That greed in the US is the result of constant obsession with money and possessions. A lot of people thought they would...

All really good points. :thumbsup:

Re: Blue eyed brunette Samerri Thanks! :)

This disaster didn't happen overnight, this has been coming on for about 6 or 7 years as far as the mortgage mess goes. Everybody was dumb and happy last week. While this might look like McCain is rushing to the nearest phonebooth to turn into Superman, he only recently seemed to change his...

Of all the email stuff I get everyday, all the McCain supporters I know send me very racist stuff, and pictures of 9/11 and troops in Iraq. The Obama stuff is much more factual, to the point and never uses anything construed as attacking McCain.

All I said was as bad as this is, it's not as bad as the $7 Trillion total bill out there building over the last few years. The largest part is where our "leaders", dumped debt into Iraq. There is no mention about what to do about that. If adding $1.6T means $10,000 out of the pocket of every...

I just read something that said Obama says the debate is on. Obama is willing to return to Washington "if it would be helpful." But reiterated Obama intends to debate on Friday. http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/09/mccain-not-comm.html FL is a light red state.

I don't see that at all. :dunno: I guess there's also a Bush cult? Anyone that says anything factually based against the Bush administration, is part of the Obama cult. Is that it?

I never use it. I used to take them out manually, but XP and Vista both have tools to do it.

Just imagine if there was no Iraq funnel to drop trillions of dollars through, this wouldn't be a third as bad. The economy has been building up to this for a few years now. Hey just check some older FO's threads on the subject! I got it long ago, how did McCain just happen to get it last...

They were 47-45 % in favor of McCain this morning in FL. If he's perceived as sneaking out of the debate, he will lose the election. If he does debate, he will probably lose also. This buys him time to learn what to say and reschedule...

Just to make him look like he's super involved, Don't forget he only a month ago claimed the economy was fine. Another goofy manuveur. He has very little to do with the outcome anyway and it gets him out of the debate.

Blue eyed brunette Samerri New to me. Sorry no links :)

With Iran, the admin blew it again, with the same buttheaded approach they use with Cuba because they can't control it for their own use. Reps from Iran made an appeal to the US immediately after 9/11 to both distance themselves from the terrorists, and try to have 30 years of sanctions lifted...

Cult? What cult? Maybe we're all just brainwashed? :dunno:

First thing I thought was how some cities have legally decided if they can make more money off your property by selling it to enterpreneurs building an apartment house or retail center which will pay more in property tax, you are out despite how long you've paid taxes on it. New Haven , CT...

The best thing is not to get wound up before you get a date. I've been emailing someone for a while and just asked her out for lunch. Either response is okay although I would like a yes.

Good answer. Borrow more.

That is probably more accurate. Congress was pressing the question today during the hearings and they won't guarantee $700 billion is enough. Hey, asshole that I am, I balance my checkbook every month. :dunno:

I always try to keep it casual. The less hyper you get, the better. Ask if she wants to go get a coffee with you. Done. Only if you need to, press the RED button.

:dunno: Good reason to dislike the guy. If I was dragged under a heliacopter stunt goe's wrong, or if lyeing on a bed of nail's or if in a striatjacket and tore my foot. i would never survive.

Looks a bit photoshopped.

They look like hotlinks that didn't work and like everyone knows, hotlinks are not allowed.

I thought you were dead? :dunno: What went wrong? :rofl:

Jim Crow -- The Remix Jim Crow -- The Remix Sept. 18, 2008--The Republican Party has finally found the outer edge of political cynicism; it's located in Macomb County, Mich. Operatives there have figured out an upside to the foreclosure crisis roiling black neighborhoods: It enables mass...

Hmmm.... He was a chef? 1- We have a chef here. 2- Keep quiet and do what he says.

I like the simple street magic stuff of David Blaine.
