Btw, people who succumb to peer pressure, like smoking and drinking, are not all that sexy to women.

Seems similar to a story I heard about a kid, who drank more booze than he could handle on his birthday, and was found dead the next day in a bathtub.

Boring... My laptop is 2 yrs old, but it's way more powerful than the specs described (dual core 2.0GHz ~= 4.0GHz?, 2GB RAM, etc.).

"Charisma is a very powerful and potent tool. Your average man has no where near as much charisma as a person like Obama"
No... duh! Why do you think he got elected?

Obama! Obama! He's the man! If he can't do it, then no one can! ;)

If you believe in all the conspiracy theory about the elite having engineered the Great Depression, and this one, you'll scratch your head and wonder why. It probably has to do with this saying, "it's not enough that I [the elite] succeed, everyone else must fail." That is probably the reason why they engineered the credit bubble of the past and this one. It's human nature, I guess.

If you think 2008 was bad... In 2008, the Dow Jones Industrial Average went from 14,200 points to 7,450 points (lowest), which is a 50% drop. Let's assume that this "recession" is similar to the 2000-2003 recession that saw the NASDAQ drop by as much as 75%, it would mean ANOTHER 50% drop in the stock market to around 3,700 points (75% from the peak) either this year, or the next. So, if you thought the 2008 slide was bad, we're gonna have another one just as bad this year, percentage-wise.

Very true. I don't see any sort of economic recovery until late 2010.

These two superstars are role-models to society. They adopt children, because they have the financial means to. Imagine what the world could be, if every rich man and woman were like them.

Lol, that woman had to be in there didn't she? I think this picture is more about her than the Obama-wanna-be.

Reading this article is like comparing Linux (open source/communism) and Windows(R) (capitalism). Sure, Linux, er I mean communism seems like a really good idea at first, until you see how many holes (bugs and errors) it contains, once you have it up running. Switched back to Windows in a matter of weeks.

Spring won't be enjoyed as much without a harsh winter to preceed it. For every yin, there is a yang. Things come in pairs: soul-mates, winter/summer solstice, economic booms and busts. It's all part of the natural cycle to reset/rebalance things, so get used to it!

Wait a minute, you'd rather these lovely women just stay home and not spend money? Good luck making the recession better that way! No spending = no economic recovery.

Not sure what the point of this article is. Bill Gates used to make $100K/year when he was still C.E.O. of Microsoft. Oh, did I mention he accumulated billions in stock options and bonuses?

^ Oh bother. A religion, which forbids suicide, goes something like this: "You will denied entry into heaven, if you commit suicide"...
Moderator: Readers, no further discussion of religion please.

Suicide is more common among atheists. Maybe Japan should adopt a national religion, which forbids suicide.
