  1. I didn't really want to like this since I remember those events, etc and wasn't digging the comedy piece. But holy shit these people were so inept there is no other way to characterize this deal. Morons. And the best part is Nixon was never ever in danger of losing that election.
  2. Man such a case of blue balls on this. You have to resolve the BTK story. Would hope either Fincher gets religion with someone like HBO or at least agrees to have someone else take it over with the same cast. And fuck Netflix. Not paying 20 a month to watch Korean movies and cooking shows. I will let it sit for six months and see what two shows they have added that are worth shit.
  3. SWA just proved that kind of stuff is cost related. Wall St is driven by quarterly earnings. A lot of C-Suite people think nothing bad will ever happen and plan accordingly. Goes great until it doesn't.
  4. that part has surprised me the most. He always played like the biggest swinging dick out there and now its just gone? i mean for us hackers, sure. But this guy?
  5. Texas Football has been trying to kill my ass for the last 50 years too Red. RIP. People may not always like his style but he was a true friend to UT.
  6. they are so screwed. If they money whipped an entire overhaul of systems and everything went perfectly youre probably looking at years before its live. Ugh.
  7. The instrumental "Christmas Time is Here" is just gorgeous. Just a touch of melancholy to it. The sponsors were going to pull the plug on any music for that show and somehow it didn't happen. Small miracles.
  8. Partial to 12 O'Clock High. The prospects for making it through your tour were really slim in the early days of the Mighty Eighth. And as much of a pussy as John Wayne was, Jimmy Stewart was a Grade A badass. Right in the middle of it all.
  9. And yet such a staid community like Miami is a hub for crypto. Weird.

    Hudson Card

    We win OSU if Card is QB. I am not a fan of yanking starters, especially a FR QB but Ewers was horrible that game.
  11. The LSU game was ideal. Keeps hope alive in CS and keep Jimbo right where he is. Oblivious to how shitty a coach he is and owning ATMs ass financially for the next decade. Its beautiful.
  12. I just love all this. Been having to field client questions about crypto for years and we told them it isn't our thing. Always have felt its a greater fool theory deal. Yes, like beanie babies. Problem is when the last fools in the chain get left holding a bag of dogshit there aren't many fools left. BTC will probably survive because how else can criminals launder money with no rules in place? At least there aren't many left to tell me its money, a store of value, or an inflation hedge anymore. Thats all bullshit. But hey, if youre long it, and you like it, go for it. Just dont cry on anyones shoulder when all that shit goes to money heaven.
  13. This whole episode has hard landing written all over it. Fed has to slay the inflation dragon at the outset of all kinds of shit goes off the rails. Volcker made that mistake in the late 70s before he had to crush everything. Uh, that sucked. If they pivot prematurely my advice is to drink heavily.
  14. Its been a week. Give it time. Saylor is my favorite knucklehead. How about when MSTR went from 1400/share to 90 in six months back in 2000 after a bunch of accounting fraud? And yet there he is, no shame at all, flogging for crypto. Amazing that guy hasn't seen the inside of a jail cell.
  15. Pretty sure he made his fortune by cell phone slamming where you change peoples service without their consent and then sold the company. Its illegal now. The guy seems like the pilot of Plane Douchebag.
  16. Just finished. Glad there is a season 2. That has to be damn expensive to shoot. I dig it so far.
  17. When people were saying that ATMs class of mercenaries would implode at the first sign of adversity I just chalked that up to wishful thinking and fan fiction. All I got to say about that is holy shit. Oh, and fuck them.
  18. Man that looks incredible. Such a waste and they decided to do it again 20 years later.
  19. I was a young punk so thankfully didn't have any money to lose but imagine that now in our nonstop media world. The 2008 crash was bad enough but at least that was slow motion relatively.
  20. Branagh is just stellar in this film as he is in everything. I have watched it a couple of times and it is so chilling to see them discussing the entire process like they are building pickup trucks. Hard to believe all of this was such recent history. I would guess most of the actors had a lot of stage training because there were some long complicated dialogue scenes. I dont recall a lot of scene cutting but I need to see it again.
  21. I dont think SPX profits have been revised downward enough. And yesterdays big gyrations aren't something you see in healthy markets. Still feel like there has to be some over leveraged hedge fund or bank out there that blows up before we can move forward.
  22. "I'm shocked. I'm pissed. It's Mack Brown." Yeah, been around a while. Need to reexamine my life I think.
  23. WWI was such a ridiculous slaughter. I have read that 1/3 of French men 18-25 died in that war. Wiped out a whole generation. At the Somme the British had 60,000 casualties the first day. Battle for Passchendaele is believed to have caused 500,000 casualties total and moved the line a few hundred yards before giving it all up. Horrific indifference to human life. And all it accomplished was to set the stage for the next one 20 years later.
  24. As an adult, he racked up 59 convictions for assault, assault with a weapon, uttering threats, assaulting a police officer and robbery. Pretty impressive tally for a 30 year old. What a piece of shit.
