"Owner Fritzi Cohen... threatens sale to Aryan Nations."

Um... that'll teach 'em?

heh heh heh. Nobody's paying attention to the fact the new 520 is only expected to last 75 years. heh heh heh. Certainly in about 25 years we can start detectingleakage flaws ....or raise earthquake standards again...to get that sucker rebulit a third time in just 50 years. Again. This thing is a multigenerational cash cow!

And in other news, Israel has banned the iPad. If you're planning on going there, plan on having it confiscated by customs. It seems it infringes on other airwaves there. Several other European countries are expected to follow suit.

I can't think about the news. I was almost just run down by two guys in a black 1987 Jag X6 turning east on pike as I was crossing to get to Starbucks. I gave them a good shouting (I was in the crosswalk, ped light was "walk), but it's still disturbing that a city that touts its walk and bikeability and "transit" has some of the most insensitive drivers in the world.

RE: Goldman Sachs lawsuit

Aaaand, the DJI reacts accordingly, running below 11,000 with its tail tucked behind. Oh noes! Scary Obama might ruin our profiteering!

Holy shit, Barack Obama woke up this morning and ripped those cheating motherfuckers a new one.

How does this not deserve its own blog post? (No offense, Unpaid Intern.)

@7 - jail terms do that.
10
They're going to leave the whale on the beach for "scavengers". Weren't they recently shooting and trapping scavengers in Discovery Park?
11
@8
No offence taken.
Dominic posted the morning news.
Fuckwad.
(have a nice day)
12
@11 - Don't be a bitch. You can't post about stories like this anyway, so I guess we'll have to see if Dominic does that too.
13
Oh jeez, Dominic posted the morning news? What happened to poor Unpaid Intern?

Anyway: well then, it'd be cool to break this out as its own story at some point. It's going to be a runaway train before long...

@12: Yeah I don't think Unlaid Intern is the same as Unpaid Intern. I'm pretty sure that, unlike @11, the Unpaid Interns get laid regularly. ;)
14
I hope they get laid. Sarah is really cool.

Were the SEC an objective entity, they would investigate Chris Dodd and Barney Frank throroughly for what they did to Fannie and Freddie, because THAT is what caused the financial meltdown in 2008.

Re: Made to Fail. If you haven't listened to the latest This American Life about the banking/housing/market crisis, you should. Or at least download it while it's still free and listen later.

@15: What did they do to Fannie and Freddie that caused the meltdown?

(Hint: I actually know what caused the crisis, I'm trying to see if you do. I have a sneaking suspicion you won't be able to explain it. But prove me wrong.)

Please wait...
