        Thanks Obama!
        \_ Obama?  huh?  he is not even the President yet.
        \_ I don't think this is an Obama thing. I don't have enough time right
           now to check out the figures cited by the Alternet article linked
           to by the link you posted.  layers on layers on layers.
        \_ Two words:  firing squad.
        \_ Isn't this the Bush/Paulson plan?
           \_ Yes, but they'll never let facts get in the way of stupidity.
           \_ no. this is the plan Obama created according to Pelosi
                approved by Congress then signed by Bush
              \_ Attribution?

11/10   Which one is a hotter MILF?  (Or are they?)
        Cindy McCain:
        Sarah Palin:
        \_ The hormones screaming in my brain say Palin since she is still
           of breeding age.  I reallydoubt McCain needs birth control anymore.
           \_ Isn't she 44?
           of breeding age.  I really doubt McCain needs birth control anymore.
           \_ Isn't Palin 44?
              \_ she's still fertile, somehow!
                 \_ Downs Syndrome kids!
        \_ Michelle Obama: .
        \_ Trickled down Nancy Reagan: .

11/10   Nassim Taleb says modern portfolio theory is shit.  Seven Nobels have
        been handed out related to risk management theory, and it should stop
        being taught in business schools.  He also describes how he invests for
        the long term.

11/10   Has Hugo Chavez said anything significant lately, now that oil prices
        has plummetted?
        \_ He's sitting on several billion, he can continue to mouth off for
           a long time.

11/10   WaPo admits their coverage of the election was biased.
        http://csua.org/u/mwm
        \_ Did you ever think it was possible that Obama was the better
           candidate who ran a better campaign and therefore got better
           press coverage?

11/10   Is there some kind of sex toy which is a large but hollow dildo that
        one can put on to his small erect penis, so that he can have sex with
        the usual kinds of thrusting motions with his erect penis except that
        it's now enlarged with fake outer material?  Thanks.
        \_ Just find yourself a midget girlfriend.
           \_ Too late.  Already married.  -- OP
              \_ So?
              \_ So, you're already married, and now she's complaining about
                 inadequate equipment?  Did she have a child or something?
                 Or does she have a large boyfriend on the side?  If the
                 latter, howsabout you two split and you find your midget
                 girlfriend?
                 \_ Hey, maybe they were both virgins when they got married,
                    you don't know. Anyway, show a little compassion. Okay,
                    okay, this is the motd, what am I thinking here...
                    \_ Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind.  Some short
                       term pain may be preferable to long-term unhappiness.
                       She might need a better-equipped guy, and he might
                       be happier with a woman who is happy with his
                       equipment.  I'm wondering if she was dishonest with
                       him or herself about the equipment issue before
                       marriage.
                 \_ We have two kids.  She never complained before and she is
                    not complaining now either.  However, she has been showing
                    less and less interest in the last couple of years.  I am
                    sure I do well in all the other skills involved in the act.
                    less and less interest in the past couple of years.  I am
                    less and less interest in the past few years.  I am
                    sure I do well in all the other areas involved in the act.
                    So this is the only factor that I don't do well and can't
                    improve in a natural way.  --- OP
                    improve naturally. -- OP
                    \_ I doubt that penis size has anything to do with it.
                       \_ Agreed.  Women just aren't as interested in
                          breeding after two kids.
                          \_ Maybe this is the seven year itch.
                    \_ Have you talked to her about it? Is this what she
                       wants?
                    \_ Maybe you just need to spice things up a bit.
        \_ I have seen porn stars wearing these, so I know they exists, but
           I have never seen one at Good Vibes.
        \_ They're called "Extenders," and you can find a *ahem* huge
           selection of them here:

           \_ Thanks!  Will check them out from home.  -- OP
              \_ The motd: insulting you three times and helping you once.
                 It's our way.
                 \_ LOL so very true. Love the motd.
                 \_ Looks like the "King" is what I need -- increase girth
                    without too much increate in length.  -- OP
                    \_ One more word of advice from a guy with a lot of girth
                       and length: use a lot of lube, and GO SLOW.

11/10   What is the difference between QQQQ and SPY?  How should I decide
        which one to buy?
        \_ punch them into yahoo finance, click on Profile
        \_ I trade QQQQ all the time, betting that it's going nowhere but
           will have a lot of mini waves (up down 5-7% in a week), and I've
           been riding on QQQQ and doing well based on this guess. I've been
           monitoring SPY and see that both waves are so similar, that
           it's most likely not worth trading both. DIA on the other
           hand is like QQQQ, but more gentle mini-waves. I also do DIA.
           I've been doing VERY conservative week trades.       -week trader
           \_ If that's your belief, look at butterfly spreads.
              http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Options_strategy
           \_ Can you post to the motd each time you trade? TIA.
        \_ Check out QLD.  It basically follows QQQQ, but the returns are
           ~2x QQQQ (up or down).
           \_ Leverage, leverage, leverage! What could possibly go wrong?

11/10   Bush leaving office with a higher disapproval rating than Nixon,
        the highest ever recorded.
        http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/11/10/bush.transition.poll
        \_ Congress at lowest approval ever, and voters gave the dems more
           seats.
           \_ Which tells you that the voters spotted dickery on the part of
              Congressional Republicans and punished them accordingly.
           \_ Which tells us that the voters spotted dickery on the part of
              Congressional Republicans and punished accordingly.
           \_ Democrats in Congress have a much higher rating than Congress
              as a whole. What does that tell you?
