Little more info about Danielle Chiesi’s buddy: he doesn’t take shit from anyone and people look (looked?) up to him. “Hector is one of the most respected figures in the industry,” said Dan Hutcheson, head of VLSI Research, a semiconductor research company in Santa Clara, California. “He’s a very quiet person and very methodical, and tends to be pretty analytical.” According to Roger Kay, an analyst with Endpoint Technologies Associates in Wayland, Massachusetts, “He fought the underdog fight for years against Intel. He was a hard-charging executive, take-no-prisoners type.”

That fucking shitheel and his ugly-ass shoes.
Cutting the price of beer is going to work real well.
Running over drunken paddies in the middle of the street is the new killing it.
@ 2 go off yourself, racist
Paddies dollars for all. Let’s stimulate this SOB!
@3 – Didn’t know the Irish were a race.
The Irish are all a bunch of mud farmers and sheep rapists.
@AB the idiot @2 uses the “racist” call out every morning. You could almost set a clock by him.

Another day of E Burnett’s shit snarky smirk… Someone give Mark Haines a taser.
5- you new on this planet?
He looks so regal in that pic.
somebody call someone racist?
@5 The Irish have been regarded as the lazy, drunk scum of the earth for a thousand years. Even when the native americans and negroes were shipped to the UK they were still the least civilized people.
And lets not forget how God raped them CG style and killed their potatoes. And then half of them died because they had no potatoes! Who the hell dies without potatoes. The Irish, that’s who. Shoulda killed more of them while I still had the chance. Especially the catholic ones, they are even uglier then the black irish.

Irish men are sex machines in bed. Woof.

@15, the great one’s never died. We are simply reborn as something beautiful, like a mole on Drury’s breastessess or a fallopian tube inside of Maria B.
On the other hand, the jerk offs are reborn as either Irish or living in Ohio(read Dayton Accords)

@18 Thanks for grossing me out with the Maria B imagery, jerk!
GMAC sucks.
@19 Don’t hate the playa hate the game.
Feinberg crosses his legs like a woman.
