There are appointed people in the Department of Justice and there are long time people. I thought that she was a long timer who can't be tossed on her butt for...
right so I thought the fact that she works for Gonzales or whoever has no bearing on whether her political views jive or not with Gene's. I'm guessing they...
not much--everyone seems to have crawled back into the woodwork. I think the hiatus did it--business has gone downhill ever since. Everyone went back to their...

Well, there was this terrifying and bewildering event: http://tinyurl.com/38ojbg And, just this morning, this golden opportunity: http://tinyurl.com/2xrggc ...
My neighborhood has had several bank robberies lately, some more than once. I wasn't sure which specific branches, though. It isn't my bank, but it is near me...
... Bank robberies don't pose any particular threat to the security of one's account; that's part of what the FDIC is for, isn't it? If a particular branch...
someone else mentioned this when I related the story. I thought FDIC money was our tax dollars at work. But apparently banks have to have like $500 million...
You should totally check out this book: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GYI1O2/105-0497395-6692439 I thought Politically Incorrect was good but didn't...
My (Canadian) cable thingy has a channel that runs some HBO but, alas, not Maher. I read his New Rules on a plane trip last spring and enjoyed that. His smug...
Almost every branch of a large regional or national bank generally holds two or three days of transactions - usually sub $500k in most cases, and in smaller...
Isn't this the same book if you read it on the plane? Or was it a different book (The Rules maybe?) ... alas, not Maher. I read his New Rules on a plane trip...

Well, I guess one shouldn't be surprised if a few nuns get into the act. And, also, it demonstrates that this business of female teachers fooling around with...

.....here is a (perhaps "The") synopsis of next years, errrrrr, I mean, last years, no . . . . . wait, the last and next 4,000 years political agenda, mostly....
I think it is impressive that there are almost exactly the same number of under 35 and 35+ poll takers. What is the probability of that? Is 35 exactly middle...
Gene addressed this in the chat--35 is exactly the median, which would be perfect if the age range was 0-70. but since it is probably more like 18-70, the...
