Liar’s Poker: Rising Through the Wreckage on Wall Street has to be the first book about the mortgage crisis that the United States is going through. I say this with some confidence, because it was first published on October 1, 1990. Yes yes, 18 years ago, but I swear to you it is the most [...]

Just to be clear - I was as rusty as anybody at the table. It's not like I knew that it would work, I just knew that I was screwed from any sort of conventional point-of-view, so it was time to try something different. Now, having said that
You dirty dawg! This "one of the strongest players" knew exactly how sneaky you are, I just didn't realize it was your actual strategy. Ha-RUMPH.
Next time, blood will coat the streets.
Thanks for the info Ray! I just ordered one today along with an extra main motor, can't wait.
Hi Chad,
Yes, I am very pleased with my heli. The main motor gave up the ghost a few days after the above post, and I had to get another. I bought several, but so far haven't had to replace another. I fully expect to have to replace the current moRay, are you still happy with your heli? Have you had to replace any motors or other parts so far?In the pros, I agree with you to a point. There *have* been a lot of busts in the top round, and there have been good players in later rounds, but what's the percentage on stars drafted, by round? I suspect the 1st round is still the best place to fi
Don't look at me, I'm no fan of tanking games. Every week should be played to their max ability in an effort to try to win. The Seahawks are not the freaking Knicks, afterall.
High draft picks are overrated anyways. You pay a lot of money, tying u
Politicians comes to mind. :DI agree with you 100% I've just chosen not to explain all of the reasons why I think a bailout is a terrible idea.
I have been trying to point out things that people may not know about, while avoiding topics that may degenerate into meaningless aThanks for stopping by. :) I imagine the recent news caused more folks like me to do a little research, and your post comes up very early on google (so well done there!).
It's amazing, the things I'm learning about the big, ugly web out there, anWell, except for me. I just expressed my opinion of the jerks, and now I find folks are linking to that rant. I hope all this attention means criminal charges and prison time for Mccolo's owners etc. In the meantime keep spreading the word about thos
Hm ... I had a different rationale for why this is stupid: It rewards failure. Businesses demand money from the government to rescue them from foolish and selfish financial decisions. At the same time, they scream against any kind of oversight or Lisa McSherry mentioned that you're looking for additional bloggers and thought I might suit for reviews and Pagan articles. Shall we discuss possibilities?Hey ya Mike,
First, sorry for the delayed response. I'm more than happy to continue the conversation, I think it would be a lot of fun. I don't think Candid World is interested in coming along, but I think your work is stand-alone awesome; it does
Hey John,
Nice to see GU coming along. Your 'proposal' makes a lot more sense now that I can see it in action. Very interesting set-up. I'm monitoring my traffic closely post-election. Merging The Big Stick into a larger network may make more sensHi ya Steve,
Are they sure her sight was actually restored? She claimed to see a bright light that matched the description of Tebow's aura, but that's the same thing I see when someone pokes me in the eye.
Yes, I saw the FSU jump. They're defin
Go 'Dawgs, indeed. Richt's successes are more than admirable, and I've missed the hell out of him at the offensive helm these last eight years. Should be a great game, but I give the edge to the 'Dawgs. Even though Tim Tebow once touched a blind
