- Global stock markets just cold went nuts because of, perhaps, the G20 deal. [BBC News]
- You know how all those unsold new cars are just piling up everywhere? That’s not good for the auto industry! [Washington Post]
- DC Mayor Adrian Fenty might let out a lot of prisoners, to save money! These will be good prisoners who get a GED or whatever, so don’t worry. [MyFoxDC]
- Remember that NFL scumbag who made millions of dollars yet still thought a great hobby was fighting dogs to death? He will soon be out of jail, and has a “construction job” waiting. Good thing there’s no construction work! But still, maybe he’ll get a day job, for the ESPN cameras or whatever, and then a million-pound iron i-beam will fall on his skull, the end. [CNN]
- Remember that Ward Churchill guy who got fired from the college in Colorado because he was (allegedly) a fraud? A court ruled he was unlawfully fired, and gave him a dollar. Go nuts, Red State! [Daily Camera]
- Whoa hey Google might buy Twitter. But, uhm, how does that help America kill Twitter? [TechCrunch]
preparing myself for next phase of federal stimulus: Chevy Malibu give-away!
Ward Churchill turned out to be right. But then, so did Mickey Kaus, and he still blows goats.
Any day now twitter will have a business plan (the TechCrunch thinks it will have something to do with grunting) and then we will all marvel at Google’s foresight.
It would seem that a bunch of unsold cars effectively solves the homeless problem. Hoboes unite and head for the port of L.A.! Layne will pass out punch and cookies.
Hey Global Market Free Market guys! Question, how are things going to improve if no one is spending bucks on big ticket items and all they can afford to eat are Hobo Beans?
Oh sorry, go back to your party…
At least some of us are back in the buying mood…
It won’t be long before the Big Three employs the Iacocca Method - using bailout cash to build vehicles to sell to the government for their fleets.
Can’t beat a Clash reference to start the day — or is it Junior Murvin? Anyway, at least it’s not Washington bullets again, yet.
Google buying Twitter is the perfect way to kill Twitter, because Google isn’t cool anymore. Once Google buys something, all the magazines stop writing about it. At the very least, we wouldn’t have to hear so much about the damn thing.
… said Mark Pregmon, a SunTrust Bank executive and chairman of the automotive finance committee of the Consumer Bankers Association. “It was riding the wave of the ‘go’ economy. . . . Their house was their ATM machine.” Seems like such a personage should know that the “M” in “ATM” stands for “machine”. He could have asked the CFO officer.
Hell, I went nuts because of the G20 deal. We are talking about the GIF Obama is Snoop thing right? That can save the planet.
Jsab: Somewhere, someone will always be in the buying mood. This is what keeps gigolos afloat, as it were. Hubba.
…I love how Fox doesn’t bother mentioning what types of crimes the “convicts” committed, it just says “He’s letting criminals out of jail!” He’s probably just letting out some unlucky stoners…
NebraskashireGentry: Actually, Malibus are decent vehicles. If he really wants to get things moving, I think O’s next big press event should feature him speeching while standing on top of big American-made truck, preferably a crew cab with a Hemi V-8 and Peterbilt styled front end and a big sign in the background that says “Mission Accomplished”
What?
sagaderisa: or people that happen to be born Black men and allow their dogs to fight ………
Twitter jumped the shark when Sanchez started twatting.
If google buys twitter, will we be gwogling?
“Churchill remained on paid suspension, still earning his annual salary of $96,392.”
Life’s a bitch.
