  1. M star, PM me your email I'll send you an invite to Gmail. Much better than hotmail and you never get a scam again. I have yet to see any of the scams come across my gmail, but if they have they are buried in the spam section no spam ends up in my inbox. Pretty sweet. it free by the way.
  2. Oh yeah, if you meet a girl that easy, yeah, don't go down that road. If she plays hard to get, keep on pressing. Literally.
  3. I concur, during bad economic time, you might find it beneficial to put water in the plastic cup, and have the beer bottle in your hand. So rather than pouring beer into plastic cups then chugging that cup, it just easier to drink from the bottle. Saves money and you still have fun. ;D
  4. That what I thought, but when snook said legacy per car I thought he was actually talking about something to do with the car. Got myself confused.
  5. I disagree with the first. See Enron, they could make numbers dance and sing from here to Hong Kong. ;D Ever heard of hypothetical accounting? What exactly is the legacy cost?
  6. Indeed, but college degree doesn't translate more cash, it just makes you more qualify for a certain trade. Teachers go to school for 6-8 years gets pay 35k a year, while I can go to school for accounting for 6 years (what I'm doing now) and make millions of dollars in a single year. A person can go to trade school for welding in 2 years and make 80k. I could get a 4 year accounting degree and make a steady 50-60k a year. It all varies base on your goals in life. I don't know why teachers and student counselors in high school are pushing people get college degree it not that big of a deal. People without degrees still makes same amount if not, more than a person with one. (see teachers salary.) Isn't that Ironic, a teacher can teach a student, try make them go to college, and if they don't that person can still make more than a teacher. LOL. Oh well. My vision is, long as you have a job and is doing something productive, you are an alright person in my book.
  7. You have to name 62. Lets make it more extreme and name 55 teams that didn't make the tournament bracket without researching.
  8. Words to live by...Those who says high school are the best years of your life, never went to college. And screw pre-med biology and chemistry sucks! ;D
  9. Pals is amazing! I live in Morristown and I love Pals burger and strawberry shake.
  10. Japan did that. They save 13% of their income compare to America 4% and end up drive themselves into a recession by saving to much. Even Keynes believe we shouldn't save to much because of this reason.
  11. Don't the average auto worker makes 76 some dollar an hour? That should translate to 150k a year just screwing in bolts. I heard a news report they made that much. Correct me if I'm wrong, but what I saw on CNN. While the non-union workers make around 40.00 an hour here in the south working for other auto makers. I blame both the management and the union. Neither one of 'em were flexible in money management nor adjusting to trends. They should have made the "fuel efficiency" cars years ago not just the last year. Should have predicted gas was not going to be 1.50 for rest of our lives. We saw it in the 70s and now we see it again. Alias, I would expect them to slow productions and keep strictly to a guarantee demand. They over calculated the demand on some vehicles. That why there was such a build up in inventory which help drives them under. You cannot produce 50,000 cars and sell barely half of 'em then end up cutting the other half price and expect to continue to operate in the long run.
  12. My brothers a big Bear fan and he sort of predicted this. I cannot wait see how Jay Cutler does.
  13. Work on it cheap, and then nickle and dime him. Hey you wanted to be rich.
  14. That happen last week. Right now today is mostly because of new regulations coming into play. Making changes to the Mark-to-Market accounting standards which will change the way banks value assets.
  15. I love the actions that people in this world takes.
  16. Dow Jones Industry: 8,020.06 +258.46 (3.33%) NASDAQ: 1,607.29 +55.69 (3.59%) S&P: 500 837.63 +26.55 (3.27%)
  17. I'm tell calculus A to bring it on! I asked my brother "how hard is calculus?" and he replied "I cussed at it every night."
  18. Which one did you take? I take Calculus A next semester. My statistic professor told me Calculus A and 1 are two different animals.
  19. "His bar stool was not impounded" What if it was?
  20. How about Binomial Probability Equations. I got test this Friday over that chapter. It a lot of fun. http://cnx.org/content/m11024/latest/ Scroll down until you see "The Formula for Binomial Probabilities" Standard Deviation and Binomial really makes you think. Go to fast you will accidentally write down or calculate wrong number. It easier than it looks I got an A in that class.
  21. How about Anthony Grant hiring at Alabama? I hope this man really get our basketball program rolling.
  22. I guess she didn't like his nuts.
  23. DJ Industry: 7,924.56 +174.75 Nasdaq Comp: 1,587.00 +58.05 S&P 500: 832.86 +18.98 On a side note, today in Economic class, we was doing multiplier effect and other boring crap. We had table with Full Employment number (number of people employed) The GDP output the employment level produce, and the total Expenditure. Well, the full employment level had numbers like this: 130 (millions) 700 billions (output) and 680 (billions) What that means is the economy had a full level employment everyone had a job and produced 700 billion dollars worth of goods we only bought 680 worth. Which translate in plain English that the economy is now in recession. Point is folks, recessions come and go. No need to hit the panic button.
  24. This is what we did somehow. http://kottke.org/06/11/frozen-beer-tricks It was a waste of beer, but it at the time we was like bunch 5 year olds starring at a brand new shiny red bicycle.
