holy shit.

holy shit 2.

holy shit 3.

enjoy your weekend.

yeah ok lets keep drilling

BP is also planning to cap the well and capture the leaking oil, but this will take four weeks to put in place, by which stage more than 150,000 barrels could have spilled out. If the steel cap does not work, BP will have to try drilling a relief well, which would take three months. By then, the spill could total more than 300,000 barrels (47m litres), greater than the 258,000 barrels leaked by the Exxon Valdez.

Brilliant

There is only one band i can think of capable of not only recording their own concert film but also funding it in its entirety. To top it off, when the project is finished instead of being sold to a huge record company capable of distributing it to the masses, the film is put on you tube where anyone can watch for free without knowledge of who filmed it, released it or anything.
that's solid.

Hannity

Why does Sean Hannity call Barack Obama the "anointed one"?

I love when news channels are unafraid to admit that they are stumping for one party or a particular ideology.

PORK, GOVERNMENT TAKEOVER, SPENDING, SPENDING, AHHH SPENDING,

huh still waiting for the rapture mr. hannity. (also i might add that he has a terribly wrong idea on how the financial crisis was created. no offense but it  had nothing to do with government involvement, in fact probably little to no government regulation on that one street in new york. next time i'm looking to understand how complex derivatives hedged against nothing had everything to do with government involvement i'll call you mr. hannity.)


and yes sean, i am a liberal, and i usually do wake up everyday and say to out loud to myself "I'm not being taxed enough, tax me some more!"

i think when you make an investment you generally hope to see return on that investment. well when i pay taxes i usually see that returned in the form of cash round about once a year and maybe when I'm older social security and medicare compensation (although the stability of social security is a whole different issue). Someday when i pay real estate taxes i sure as hell hope to wake up and go, man i know my kid and others like him/her will be getting an education that is certainly not the caliber of all those socialized idiots in europe and parts of asia.

also just heard that barney frank is responsible for most of the financial crisis.

watching fox and blogging is funny.
