Bess, where have you been for the last 4 hours?
Bess, I’m getting kinda tired of seeing Sorkin’s rodent-like mug plastered all over the site. Can we please take a break from that for a while? Just for five or ten minutes. Thanks.
@2- what are you talking about? where is that rat bastard’s mug?
where’s everyone drinking?
@3- NYTimes.com ads littering the site. Enough already.

@5- I’m sure if you offer to pay DB whatever the NYT is to advertise you can put whatever you want in ARS’s place.
@4- stone street, bitch

it’s amazing how most hedge funds make money when everybody else is making money. and lose money when most others are losing money. there has to be something wrong about that.
my old roommate said he hurt his back playing basketball and got a club card. he could get bud soda, bud ice cream, or potella. those were the days.
legalize it
So let me get this right: TPG-Axon loses just as much money as the market when it goes down and makes only a fraction when it goes up. What a buy!
I’m Lavander Williams.
Guess I don’t understand why the NYT would advertise here, with all the anus stuff. Unless it’s thinking Sorkin is an anus.
@14- no on cares if you don’t understand.
This is almost worth an After Dark DB edition:

Chronic is legal and is being taxed in California. Prop 215 legalized it in 1996. SB420 provided further guidance in 2005 and the California AG provided very specific guidance on possession, transportation and sale of cannabis in August of 2008. Don’t quote me on the dates, I’m still a little high from last night. In a nut shell; an individual who has a NOTE from a doctor may have up to 12 immature plants OR 6 mature plants AND 8 ounces of dried cannabis bud. AG of the U.S., token boy Eric, said a violation of federal law would only be pursued against those who were not in compliance with state law. Translation: The DEA will start checking state sales tax records and state sales permits at 4:20 AM after they kick your door in and shove a shotgun down your throat.
This article is shit because it’s not making a clear distinction between law that is already on the books and possible future legislation that would legalize it in an almost free for all scenario -the sky’s the limit if you’re over 21-.

Legalize pot and hookers – probably 24B in that in California. Free HJs, but ZJs are taxed at 10%.
all blacks are tokens@17?
@19- What else shouldz I have says? Actions speak louder than words. He states that federal law willz only be inforced if state law is violated and a weak later the DEA is kicking in dispensary door’s because of thay might not have collected sales taxes properly. I guess when inharent, control, detection and audit risk fails youz now call the DEA.
I’ll letz you know if a token DEA agent shows up. And be careful with that word ‘all’, its all two powerful.

Fuck you Token, you black asshole!

If MM wants to save this contry he should set aside 1/2 his food budget and donate it to the Fed, that should cure all problems.
@23
