Listening to this clip. Specifically from around 5'30. My one complaint is that Gasparino doesn't punctuate "deleveraging is a bitch" with 'la putta!' or something, but that's a minor gripe in a meat locker full of Soppresata.

I think one half of NYC is crying and the other half is laughing. Love this town.

Really? man, that is so brokeback...

I think its 7/8 crying: straight women (1/2), gay men (3/8). Only the straight men are laughing. I love it too.

The cnbc player is such crap. Why don't they fix that?

have none of you seen 'a nights tale'??
this is a sad day. seriously.
Posted by , Jan 22, 2008 5:28PM
Good one. I guess the straight men are laughing as payback for how uncomfortable they were when sitting through Brokeback with their GFs?

c'mon now, the guy had an overdose. I think we should all feel sad that a guy with so much promise had to turn to drugs...I don't cry or laugh, I just shake my head. as dave chapelle said: "crack kills, beyatches!"

for ten minutes i thought it was Heath Shuler

anyone know if they finished filming the new batman where heath plays joker? he looks pretty awesome in the previews and would be an interesting sign off for his career.
klw- i feel your pain, but lets not be drastic

This turn of events made me lawl, the apartment he was found dead in is owned by Mary-Kate Olsen.
Posted by AJ, Jan 22, 2008 5:40PM
Latest rumor I heard was that it was an Olsen's apartment, which can't possibly be true because that would be too amazing
(yes that's callous and wrong and I'm going to hell)

if you can't HANDLE the drugs
then don't DO the drugs
why feel sorry he chose it

I agree with 5:41. When Ron Paul is elected, it will be up to individuals if they want to do drugs.
Posted by , Jan 22, 2008 5:52PM
Ron Paul's candidacy was doomed from the start, but you people (05:49) are putting the nail in the coffin.

No doubt this drug thing being illegal and all helped save him.
But anyway, how 'about those markets?

Who is this Ron Paul?

is that blackrock guy in the video calling from his bathroom?

All the straight men who saw Brokeback were thrilled: we got Anne Hathaway's tits and Michelle Williams's tits (twice for the latter, iirc; once with her now-late husband did her doggy-style), and didn't have to suffer a male member of unclothed buttock for the entire film.

I doubt that that was enough to overcome the squeamishness that comes about among straight men when confronted with the fact that sexuality is not so black and white. And how maybe its not entirely odd that you sometimes wonder, when discreetly checking out that well built guy with the big cock in the locker room at NYAC, how that thing would feel if it was up your hole.

Maybe I'm an outlier on the straightness scale but I've never wondered about that. In fact, I've never heard of a straight man wondering that. I suspect you are projecting.

Brokeback Mt was a gay man/chick flick and Heath was a druggie. so what? is his death more tragic than the other 100,000 who died today?

Heath Ledger is dead. There is no point to having sex anymore, I'm canceling all my dates, forever.
