When you’re young and dumb, the wife wants a sofa or the clothes dryer broke, the poorest choice get made. Now when the “When mamma ain’t happy, nobody is happy” effect takes hold, I settle for the unhappiness. It took me 25 years to stop making decisions to make other people happy.
Oh that’s right, I forgot about that guy.
We carried the principals English Ford out on the beach pier crossways. It fit almost perfectly.
What gets me is they consider a picture of Mohammed to be sacrilege, yet they have no issues walking around making pretend they are Mohammed.
I had a boss who sailed the Chesapeake Bay for one week every year. No phones or contact. His broker was frantically trying to get hold of him. He lost $600,000 because he didn't want to be disturbed on his boat. When he found out when he came back, he just shrugged and said "oh well"..........Classy guy.
Trading during Lunch , well look at him he’s never missed a lunch or breakfast or Supper or for some dinner, Oh and snacks
I’m not suprised. I swear muslims invented “cognitive dissonance”.
CC
“Early Monday, CNBC’s Josh Brown wondered if Islam was duping “an overly eager press willing to believe.”
Da ya think? They’re so eager to put out positive stories about muslims, that any fool could con them.
I’d like to see Howard Stern send out a couple of his flunkies snag a few more.
Brings back memories of Rush rightly criticizing the press for slobbering all over 2nd rate Donovan McNabb.
Paraphrasing Rushbo...
“The media is very desirous that a muslim does well...”
“”If he lied, then he lied,” she added.
The story, in her mind, was still worth doing.
“The story is the reason to love New York,” she said. “And I came to love the fact that these kids are running around the city with these big dreams. It can only happen in New York, these kids eating caviar, talking about how they’re going to be the new Koch bothers. It seems like a uniquely New York milieu.””
In other words the fact that it’s a lie is not important - what’s important is the bogus story.
Note to any Bloomberg News aficionados...
“Pressler, who will be heading to Bloomberg News next year to lead a financial investigative unit...”
It sounds like a Louis Carroll story or perhaps a chapter by Swift.
Reminiscent of the Sex Maniacs teaching children what’s what for the last half century.
Those Johnny Deadlines don’t need a story, they need a headline, then the story writes itself.
Glad I was sufficiently skeptical so as to not bother reading the original story.
I kinda love the “almost” part.
I can see by your handle that you’d make a real good investment adviser.
NOT!
I got google at $500, just a few dozen shares. But, I rode that mule to the offshoot and sold out. As I watch GOOG now, it’s holding steady at about $500/share.
Oh, I put my gain in AAPL at the 7:1 split. Expect that to go to $200/share.
I earned my lumps coming up, taking lessons/advise from a retired broker who equated stocks with Vegas. They don’t make them fancy palaces because they like to make millionaires everyday. It’s a gamble, very similar to craps and roulette. The trick is to get out when a little ahead, or put your money back in your pocket and play with the house’s money.
Your boss ROCKED!
have you ever had a day, or period where if you had to post it against that type of money, you’d take it, or consider the loss worth it?
How come “Media was fooled” is becoming such a common headline?
Why else would he actually do a TedX Talk?
Everyone is quick to blame everything on the stupid reporters - they were duped, but this guy is a future Madoff.
I don't think they just want a good story, they have an aggressive, evil agenda.
*******
Is Obama related to this teenager? Obama and this teenager seem so skilled in lying about their pasts.
Do you realize that we know more about this New York City teenager than we know about the early background of one President Obama?
What is true and what is fake about President Obama's background? Does anyone know? God help us.
