    @3 - are you shitting me?! Read the letter, SHE should be Treasury Sec., right after she completes her Introduction to English Grammar course. Regardless, I am sending her my SIPC Madoff settlement

    PLAN A - Sell the $800,000 1-BR for what its worth (?). Take proceeds back to where you came from, hopefully some place where people have maintained their sanity. Buy a farm with a water supply and, preferably, a cave. Buy some guns, corn seed, and barbed wire. Plant the corn and bury what cash you have left in the cave, string barbed wire. Play it by ear but use food water and ammo sparingly. PLAN B - Join ACORN and run for office in the next cycle

    Other than buying a resort island with 90-day cd money, I dont think they have much on him. Borrow short, lend long, right? Your honor, the defense calls Timothy Geithner to the stand.

    Nice topic! I have had an appetite to run this clown through with a pitchfork but will have to settle for never ordering Dominos again. I will spare you the spanking you gave me Friday night for choosing the wrong word and simply advise you to shorten the hook; no need for the picture AND the thousand words. Remember, the tip of the spear is the most compact part.

    A job IS a right, just not the $100k with benefits union job on which that schmuck insists. Why not sign-on with MTA to pick up trash off the tracks? Surely MTA would hire someone to do that, since it is apparently beneath all present employees...

    Wen old boy, you wouldn't happen to know where a ragged old capitalist, with the heart of a young socialist if you follow, might solicit a reasonably priced long-term loan, would you?

    Giving the money back?! Who actually falls for Congressional emoting? What a sap... http://www.thebigmoney.com/articles/-best-policy/2009/03/17/real-aig-scandal?page=0,0 Never, under any circumstances, ever, let the truth stand in the way of using a good crisis to your advantage.

    @3 - Thanks Professor! Seems, though, like a pretty accurate graphic explanation of the fact that Citi shares are worth $3.50 down from $55. Btw, Ginger wants to know, when will you return her batteries; your "radio" will obviously never work and Gilligan left to start his own fund...

    Textbook! That's how the game works kids. For all his faults (following Cheney's lead, ever), G. W. Bush was the best stock and bond salesman that ever lived... bar none. Thanks for the memories, the bond rally and bringing the Russians to their knees, Sir.
