Borders are closing all their stores for good. eBook revolution I guess.
Wow, thought they were doing OK over there? They shut down here years ago.
Not so much e-book revolution IMO as amazon revolution. They've been suffering with the lower internet prices for years.

I just got some compaign literature (and a request for a donation) from Ron Paul.  Strangely enough it came in a Rand Paul envelope.

Sharing stationary or abusing the frank? :hmm:

Is that something that everyone in Iowa gets, or did they single you out as crazy for some reason?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

:lol: I thought when they deep sixed Keith they were trimming their sales but maybe not.

Cindy Sheehan would be a good fit too.

Has Obama made things so difficult for race-baiters that Sharpton has had to get a real job?
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Al Sharpton has proven to be an erudite and compelling television host.  :mad:

This one is for Ide. A 4.5 billion dollar gold plated yacht.

The author of the article's opinion on anything is made suspect by this sentence:

QuoteThe vessel even outshines Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich's $450 million yacht Eclipse, which has its own missile defence system and a submarine.

No, I'm pretty sure I could have a lot more fun with yacht that has missiles than the yacht that's really heavy.

Also I laughed at the "anonymous businessman" line, there's probably only 10 men in the world who could afford that.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?

Jet: I see.

For a Russian Oligarch, a missile defense system isn't a luxury, it's a good investment.  You'll always have to worry about the chance that Putin will want you to contribute your fortune for the good of Russia/Putin.  Not that I'm implying he made the money honestly.  Show me a successful Russian business man and I'll show you a crook.

This was the picture on CNN's front page.  You know, he looks kinda like that old Ferengi guy from Deep Space 9.
