lol, I hope they aren't disappointed when the 4th quarter goes back to a contraction. Unless consumer spending rebounds big time the holidays are going to be rather dull.

After all, the Taliban would rather be left alone so they could blow up people with impunity. It really sucks when you're the one being blown up.

Why? He might have some good suggestions of what techniques to use on Mugabe. I would start with the hot skewers and then move on to the electified tongs. It's what Mugabe deserves, after all.

I have no problems with faith, it's religion that I can't stand. Scientology, more than others (except maybe the Unification Church in Korea) is nothing more than a money making scam. The whole thing was dreamed up by L. Ron Hubbard back in the 50s and is being perpetuated by…

I'm not surprised. Americans stopped buying GM and Chrysler for real reasons. My Toyota is freaking perfect and my Miata is as well. Plus it's a ball to drive, easy to park and gets good mileage. There's not much comparison.

I can't imagine that Clinton's presence in Pakistan is going to count for anything. The taliban are busy blowing up civilians in the name of Allah, the compasionate, the merciful (yeah, not in their book) as often as they can. Clinton isn't going to change anybody's mind.

smith, I think the Brits are friends with Qadaffy in spite of it. There's money to be made, after all.

That's no apology. I'd like to know WHY the agents thought they should shoot the poor woman. The whole thing still makes no sense. The Brits should have rounded up…
