I like United - Cannot stand US Air.
I like Eddie Bauer.
Well, we could save all these companies (and the jobs they provide) if we just bailed them out with some taxpayer money.
What was this website predicting, mmm, 3 years ago? Infinite growth, driven by increasing real estate prices?
Or say, 10 years ago...the New Digital Economy, which would never end? Remember that?
Why post crap from people who basically have gotten everything wrong for pretty much the entire time they have been publishing?
GM announced the end of the Pontiac line. They ceased Oldsmobile a few years ago.
With Palm’s rotten customer support They should have never existed, Good riddance.
Up until the 80s Esquire was a really good magazine, full of great writing, reporting, features and photography. Since it went left and crude and tried to compete with the “laddie books” it has become crap. Too bad, but I’ve been over it for 20 years. It’ll be gone but I won’t miss it.
No. 1 may well be the gutless RNC and GOP.
Old Navy is for high school kids. I wonder if American Apparel is taking away a lot of business for the college age kids.
more 0bama supporters out of work.
1. Republican Party
2. Conservatives
3. Non-elite Caucasians (aka “whites” or “rednecks”)
4. Christianity
5. Boy Scouts
6. Men's Athletics
7. Firearms and other weapons of self-defense
8. Freedom

10. Capitalism (already replaced with Mercantilism, moving to Fascism)
11. Individualism
12. Achievement
A couple of the names were surprising (Eddie Bauer?), but this one wasn't. When your entire business model is based on a fashion fad that involves cheap ugly shoes, hey - how long did you expect it to last?
Not Architectural Digest!
I’ve loved that forever although it got a little minimalist for me.
Humility
Integrity
Shame
Sacrifice
Patience
Gratitude
Thrift
Not to mention this old brand. United States of America
Wait, you forgot something in your description - cheap ugly shoes that cost a silly amount of money.
Too bad about Saturn - we haven’t bought anything but Saturn for my husband’s work car since our first 10 yrs ago because of the “price is the price” policy and great customer service. And Eddie Bauer is his favorite store for clothes. I don’t think I’ll tell him.
What? No J-Crew where Blackie-O gets her clothes?
I hate United. Worst airline in history. I will do a little happy dance when it’s gone.
I have never had trouble with them. What’s your experience?
