10.31.07
Do you happen to know of a short novel about a society that doesnt have the word I everything is we and these
time to buy a buttload of BF’s
ok then, 1 person certainly without a clue
Watch BF hit $88
make it 2
yeah but i bet your as poor as us
I’d make you a bet… But if I wanted to do that I would have just sold it
-0.1%
there’s a million sides so bottom line… do you have a BF ? :
I don’t
are you a tchik
bah
lol
jinky, stop being a terrorist :argh: hehe
lolll are you ready for another 6 hour mongolia session pico
http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117954244.html?cs=1&s=h&p=0 lol? fox news is going to be making up fake news to skew to the right?
like cnn making up fake news and skewing to the left
BF sales, prel. est. $8.9b
lol cnn is about centrist if anything
yeah, “centrist” if you live in Berkeley
laff, every news network is right as fuck compared to the rest of the world… cnn is just to the right I live 10 miles from berkeley laffo
well what is the BBC then, commies? *are
socialists, french are commies
bbc=realists
“[Mongolia] is dependent on food imports. With more than 30 million sheep and cattle in the country, Mongolia has a potential to produce 60 million tons of milk a year, but actual production is only 7 million tons, not enough to meet domestic demand. The country likewise has 1.2 million hectares of arable land, but only one-sixth of this territory is being cultivated.”
actually, a lot of french are extremely rightwing. Google “Le Pen”
“restructuring the sector in large farms, renewing technologies and modernizing irrigation systems.”
yea, france is weird huge immigrant population+large social saftey net= angry rich people
it’s similar to much of the rest of W. Europe in that way
no way
“China, in particular, has expressed increasing interest in the Mongolian agricultural sector. Mongolian officials and entrepreneurs, however, are eager for other countries to invest.”
goodle % of gdp spent on social welfare sustainable 12% unemployment mongolia will get shit foreign investment. their economy is crap because they spent no money developing infastructure and little infastructure = poor risk/gain for foreign investors
They have no money
agree, they are kinda fucked
Russia bled them dry
it is a catch-22
They do have gold and copper though China’s getting that
they need money in order to develop the means of accumulating money :shobun:
google the same in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Germany France is comparable
which of the 5 has a higher percentage of subsidised housing/social welfare answer, none france is cool like that most spent in the EU
gold is only usefull for stereo equiptment unless you have a stupid upperclass who have some insane idea that adorning yourself in the stuff is attractive
it’s not much higher than the others
Gold is useful for money
also, percent of industry owned/subsidized by the National gov’t but, still the most… in every category
actually, Sweden’s is higher
you can make currency out of anything why does it have to be gold
france, in my mind, has got a great compromise of social democracy
http://www.euractiv.com/en/socialeurope/eu-social-protection-expenditure-rise/article-159368
You don’t have to make currency out of it It’s gold
gold doesn’t oxidize
You sell it for $600/ounce Or euros or whatever your kick is
the popularity of gold is the product of a useless upperclass and the unerring insanity of collectivism
Normally gold satisfies all the requirements as a general currency, but right now it’s too concentrated to just flip back to a gold standard
sweeden has a very tiny population compared to france
but they corner the market on hot blondes, so there is that
blondes are usually fat but that makes for hot guys but unless youre gay i dont see why you like blondes
confirmed, and the hot ones are crazy bad for me in retrospect, so I will withdraw my comment also, not gay… my fashion sense isn’t good enough
Poland has a goodly # of such
though I do enjoy cooking and being overdressed
poles are good looking, im part polish
ok, time to bring down the temporary land line - hopefully it’ll auto switch to the wireless backup
my gf’s 100% polish and beautiful D:
I think I rate about a 5% on the gay index… I stop short of the man-love
polish are fun, but boy… they aren’t cheap dates
eh, my gf sometimes likes just hanging out with a pizza and a movie
i had a polish gf and she didnt mind me being poor
but she also is a serious shopoholic
I meant from a tolerance standpoint
but maybe thats cos she got 5k for a canvas
nice got a pic of it?
nah
timur, you aren’t from the chicago land area are you? I worked with a timur…
that was years ago and to be honest i didnt like her art that much
nah, from Philly, but not my real name
haha
it kinda freaked me out
hehe dark and gloomy?
very no dead bodies or anything just wierd and distorted
try dating a jazz pianist that you think sucks at jazz and not being able to tell when she wants me to lie wasn’t that awesome=do I look fat in this
haha
cool, it worked
s0high, I solve that problem by not lying.
every seven seconds for the next 18 years, someone in this country will turn 60. More than one million Americans are expected to be 100 or older by 2050.

http://www.nypost.com/seven/11232006/news/regionalnews/krazy_kra mer_went_off_on_a_jew_rant__too_regionalnews_hasani_gittens______ ____and_david_k__li.htm 6ops oops, too. And also, oops.
whaaaaaaaaa? as woody allen said, “they were saying things like jew eat?”
famn jews damn next they will try to sleep kramer is a neighbor of mel gibson, isn’t he?
guess so
“Richards, in frantic damage-control mode, hired New York p.r. maestro Howard Rubenstein yesterday.”
well we must put a stop to that
Rubenstein
can we get a copy of the nuremburg laws of 1933? and copy them in the usa? probably ruin our physics and math departments at universities but that is a small price to pay for cleaning house
cnn is center
center of my anus
the manhattan project was dominated by jewish scientists who had left europe due to the nazis well, some who left the others were home grown in the usa’ but hell, we don’t need them we can build our defense dept based on NASCAR technology!
That reminds me, I wish Boeing would go into the auto industry
NASCARs are already bombs! good idea!
yeh dey da bomb aint dey
good morning people and animals
and jews
i thought this channel was already ethnically cleansed?
I’m still here
peace will be obtained in iraq soon
damn
the president of iraq is flying to iran
the cleansing happens right after my first cup of coffee
to create a monstrous Shia Coalition
the president of iraq has wings?
yes
lol
flap flap flap
`/join #howardstern
yeah, it does look like they’ll be turning to Iran
does he have towels wrapped around his wings?
Iran could stop the violence
how many of you more established individuals have ever bought your spouse a car for Christmas? apparently according to the car manufacturers it happens quite often
Muffler yes, car no
hmm… toaster or bmw roadster…
hmmm. sex for expensive gifts. that sounds like xxxxx
i bought my spouse some crotchless panties
how thoughtful
thanks i did give it a lot of thought, actually
What kind of mileage do they get?
heh my understanding is only 1 wearing
She puts them on, realizes what they are, takes them off, strangles you After that they’re too stretched to wear
picotero bought his right hand a yugo
My right hand can’t drive a stick
80s reference, lost on young chatters
http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,20828418-5003402,00.html
Can you imagine, if technology progressed as slowly as it used to, people would still be driving Yugos.. Now we have Kia
I want a Trabant.
http://trabant.shocauto.com/images/Trabant_Limousine_front_corner1.JPG had to look that one up
Heh. The Trabant was the ultimate East German status symbol. And the body was plastic. A dead Trabant was considered toxic waste.
Keep that radiator working!
http://www.autopflege-mit-niveau.de/nordhausen-internet/bereiche/auto/trabant-cabrio/trabant-cabrio-3.jpg err.. engine
the trabant got 40 hectares per liter of kerosene
r before e except before c
and that means? my car gets 50 rods to the hogs head
elegant simplicity
Heh! http://imgsrv1.ftipky.cz/nadupanej_trabant.jpg
it means you fear east german women swimmers
My van gets a megachain per kilodram.
I get a megaparsec per femtolitre
Now that’s silly.
With that carbeurator that I built from plans on some web site
I do get several angstroms per yoctolitre, though.
or however that’s spelled
“carb” My car runs on air! I use gasoline as a catalyst to get the energy from the oxygen in the air. Very environmentally friendly. The only waste product is photochemical smog and cyanide gas. It uses solar power to create the smog.
Yaakov is pretty clever wished Id thought of it
New potential “Texas Legislation”
cyanide causes climate stasis, clean that up
The bill, by Republican state Rep. Leo Berman of Tyler, would bar the babies of illegal immigrants from receiving state benefits such as food stamps, health care or public housing. YESSSSSS
good luck
Other proposals would tax money that is wired to Mexico or Central and South America; end a policy that lets undocumented college students qualify for in-state tuition rates; and authorize the state attorney general to sue the federal government to recover money Texas has spent dealing with illegal immigration. YESSSSSS
Too late I panteted it. patented, too. I am going to get a patent on panteting.
thats a mad idea
bye
I want a patent pendant
patents are a scam i patented something i wish i had my 375 bucks back i could use it now
That’s a bargain for a patent
yeah i didn’t finish it
i so dispise spam emails, now they just use random subjects since V|@6ra and V..I..A..G..R..A etc will no longer work
i only receive emails from 3 or 4 people evrything else i delete without reading
actually have one that’s the subject is “Hand. nope.” it’s about replica watches
MadScribe, those are works of art to me
hah
i delete stuff that isn’t spam alot by accident i’d rather not risk it if its that important leave it on my voicemail
You’d think after a while there’d be nobody left to actually earn money from And they’d just stop
picotero, well, the thing is.
i get calls from friends and family “why didn’t you respond to my email?” to which i usually respond “well why didn’t you call me to tell me you sent me an email?” “well if i was gonna do that i could have just as well called you and told you.” “exactly”
I get an average of 500 emails a day
It’s so cheap that it would take a huge lack of profit for it to matter.
i dont like email
there’s always someone that buys it
if i was rich i wouldn’t have a computer
all it takes is 1 out of 1000 to make it profitable
only poor ppl have computers?
1 out of a million
pretty much
or less But even now, they have to turn the message into nonsense to get past the filters
no but i dont know
Someone gets this mail with a bunch of random words and thinks, “Yeah I could use one of those”
i wouldn’t purchase anythign through email
I tell telemarketers that I don’t buy stuff from telespammers They like that
i’m nice to telemarketers they are the bulk of my social calls :
jinky, that’s kind of sad.
most you agreed to receive
so
it’s that little box at the bottom of your charge card enrollment you didn’t check the one in the fine print, or it said something like “if you do not wish to participate… please send a SASE to…”
MadScribe, there’s a lot of bullshit that you can find if you read contracts.
MadScribe, I tell them to mark my name off the list, too.
that does nothing
MadScribe, legally it should.
Well they say the’re putting me in a no call list…
you specifically need to find out which telemarketing company it is and ask to be removed from their list and contact your CC company you should also be on a do not call list if your state has one
Nah
for that program
We get almost no calls any more.
I was against that program
i’m on the do not call list
picotero, why?
In fact, the only ones we get are political. Ick.
They have better things to do There are enough state employees
lol
Oh, and “surveys”.
ok, like this, you enroll with Discover, they sell you as a lead to various other companies that hire telemarketing firms to call you, if you ask to be “deleted from the list” they simply remove you from the calling list for that particular sponsor
If you think the do not call list is the epitome of government waste you need to be looking around more
I never get surveys. I might actually like to receive those. Another reason not to get on the big list.
We are on the list and get those anyway.
No it’s just one kernel of corn in the manure
I turned my new phone # into the do not call list and the new calls I were getting (10 or may a day) stopped within 2 weeks I were = I was
so we’d glady remove you off of Company A’s calling list, but if you were on Company B’s list…
same thing happened when we turned in our old # for the first time….the no call list works
This household’s telemarketing plan used to be owning 56k and never getting offline.
yah, if you are GA’s do not call list technically you can get them for like $500 a call
That’s fine, they can spend the long distance charges and pay someone a few bucks and hour to call me and remove me from each list one-by-one. Maybe they’ll go out of business.
MadScribe, there are also people who I’m sure don’t follow the legal requirement of removing you from the list.
the incentives are huge (and they have to be to put up with the abuse), but like one program Sears ran offered like $9/sale at times you have to be asked to be removed from the telemarketing company’s DB, otherwise you’d just get deleted from that particular “partner’s list”
I don’t remember if it was state or federal, but I was reading a statute that it’s illegal to leave advertising on answering machines or faxes. go figure
i always start “what telemarketing firm is this?” of course they tell you the program name, i press them again for the firm name and info, then ask to blocked from their calling programs
MadScribe, it just seems efficient that if someone starts screaming (I don’t go that far) and if obviously annoyed like hell, save the time and effort. Weed out the non-prospects.
of course now i’m on the Do Not Call list, haven’t gotten a call in about 3 years or so of course now i’m on the Do Not Call list, haven’t gotten a call in about 3 years or so the managers are under pressure and they pressure you they hover over and listen
if you’re rude you guarantee going instantly on ten new lists
I suppose they assume that was the hubby and if they call later they’ll get the sweet wife with the credit card.
and if you don’t do the job they pay you for they’ll fire you in a heartbeat
i just act nice and they take me off
in college towns, at least in my experience, especially somewhere like uga with 30K+ students, there is always someone else who wants a job so they don’t care if you were the sales champ last week, don’t get at least the min. reject threshold they require, you’re out
I actually called to inquire a long time ago into one, but I have a bad phone voice. My typing voice is about ten steps above. The guy sounded amused.
you don’t want one
Do they give you little mirrors so you can watch yourself smile?
there are people that do it well, and probably go on to be successful individuals, they have the personality suited to that type of work, then there are people like me, who get tired of air horns, profanity, screaming and such heh, not at dial
My manager at US Bank had one, she was awesome.
it’s hard to for a lot of people to pronounce the names that pop up on the screen as you start talking
She called up tech support and got someone’s password by impersonating her.
that’s always fun
Hacker
social engineering
yeah
anywho, when i worked at dial, the computers often lagged behind the dialing server, so you’d hear them answer a second or two before the name popped up on the screen and you’d see something like “Maktut Balasubramanian”
hahah
“Hello may i speak to ….”
Sometimes those names are actually typos
i actually ended up calling a few teachers too, that sucked
I ran into a D’Abtibui which was supposed to be D’antonio but the typist had their hand moved over a notch
a lot of my teachers were foreign but luckily i have little problem pronouncing names these lists were usually pretty accurate, especially since they were provided by the CC companies to the 3rd parties actually hiring us to do the calling folks would yell “I’M NOT GIVING YOU MY CC #!” umm… I don’t need it…
Not necessarily, this was at a bank and when I asked if I should correct it they had me fill out a name change request form and interoffice it to the account services dep’t It takes weeks to change that stuff
don’t really care what it is… your cc company only needs to be sure you said yes to this order
I could have just fixed it but no
i did have a few days where i averaged like $150/day… then i had which is good for a college student but my friends referred to me as Satan, which coupled with stress from classes really doesn’t do too well anywho, i need coffee
Why satan?
telemarketer
Yeah, I really couldn’t ever do the telemarketing job.
I might handle it now, not as self conscious But fuck that
Getting stressed from a manager about doing something I don’t actually want to be doing in the first place doesn’t rank high on job desirability.
there was this little old lady named Dot, she’d outsell everyone frequently sounded like Grandma on the phone
That’ll do it heh.
then there were people that would assume different personalities on the phone, shy, meek people in real life, but on the phone, quite different personalities
I don’t think I could handle telemarketing even if I was good at it, cause then I’d be feeling sorry for suckering people into buying retarded shit.
a few of the deals were actually good, but that was rare, strangely enough it was the good deals that people often got PO’d about, it was the BS they’d order or subscribe to
MadScribe, heh.
when a lot of people think of telemarketing they picture boiler rooms, or some other image with folks sitting around randomly dialing people in phone books, by and large that’s just not the case i always got annoyed myself when i got “Why are you calling me back? I TOLD YOU YESTERDAY never to call me back again.” “Sir today is my first day this week…” “NO! It was you you asshole, how dare you call me during dinner, do you have nothing better to do you low-life?”
“I’m really sorry about that, sir. But while we’re on the subject, we have a great special on vinyl siding this week…”
“Go to Hell you fucking piece of shit, I don’t want to buy shit from you.” that was a well used one, i got ot hear quite a few times anywho, point is, not a fun job
“Actually you wouldn’t be buying it from me. You would be buying from the highest quality manufacturer in the business, with all of the security that comes with a 30 year warranty”
if you send your kids off to college, i’d avoid them having to work somewhere like that
Better to have them do porn or be strippers but that’s usually reserved for female Med Students
most girls working their way through college doing that drive better than 60miles to work last thing you want to do is dance at night then go back to see your teacher in the morning last thing you want to do is dance at night then go back to see your teacher in the morning
strip clubs aren’t generally that close to universities
what about if the teacher is in the club? do you automatically pass?
heh extra credit
where do you live? i mean what country?
north bay area
at least in my experience here in the South, they are pretty profitable in college towns
by san francisco

:-/ where? didn’t it sink?
fuck Science Fiction it stinks
Actually, it is sunk in Lake George, right near where that boat capsized last year killing all those old people The sunk a whole fleet of boats and ships to hide them under the ice so the french couldn’t burn them in the winter the = They
that is gold of the comedy variety
then they raised all the ships in the spring and attacked Fort Ticonderoga except that one, that slipped into deep water and was perfectly preserved amazing a wood ship could survive like that in deep water for that long
5Disrespect
There is a suspected Ship called the Farrogo it is suppose to be floating in the sea somewhere. It was built in the 1660’s. It could be armed like a warship. It’s a voyage liner but if you found the Farrogo Ship. It was solve a mystery.
ghost ship?
nope it was sent out to find a ship going to Australia
http://www.ukquad.com/ghostship.jpg
but the Farrogo didn’t find success and the Ship going to Australia did make it to Australia !
probably sunk somewhere
The Farrogo only had 15 people on board with DNA we have found that they did get off of the ship and they aborted it and we found that a diary says they let the ship float at see ! We = historians Stuart and I has found that the crew on board did make it safely back to the seashores of a liberated America !

Catch a sasquatch AKA Giant Lemur LOL
i remember that place comedy club in new york to catch a rising sasquatch wait that was catch a rising star
I can’t stand sasquatch or pumpkin
I think if you had the money and resources of the US armed Forces.. it might take a little longer to catch a sasquatch then a tall guy dressed in white in the Treeless Afganistan Mountains
what’s the big deal with catching a sasquatch…just go out to the garden and get them if you dont have a garden, then go to the grocery
har har
it only took a couple months to capture that escaped cop killer in New York with a few thousand people heh
I had a sasquatch
did you shave it?
the quartz element broke
thats a swatchwatch
oh, yeah
a sasquatch is usually yellow and crook-necked some folks fry them, or cook them with onions

then it was torched by the church to collect the policy on it
jinky: heh several churches around here were investigated for arson, but the investigations all were dropped for political reasons, all minority churches, in an election year.
this was a catholic church
pretty sure these were baptist.
Sure it wasn’t the ACLU trying to frame the church?
lol
picotero: the ACLU lacks balls to do such things.
lol. the guy who invented the gas-hybrid toyota Prius dies flying a smog-factory soviet plane.. oh the irony
He knew that smog was dangerous

He’s been “recalled” by god
“The Zionist regime is on a steep downhill towards collapse and disgrace,” Ahmandinejad told supporters at a rally of Basiji militia forces near Tehran today. In a reference to the U.S. and U.K., he said “the collapse and crumbling of your devilish rule has started.” The speech was carried live on state television. ‘ man… why must America be called a zionist regime? as an non-believer, it’s insulting. heh
There’s enough of a mixture here you could pretty much call it any kind of perjorative regime
and as if his islamic regime is any better
I’d rather live in the “zionist” regime of Israel than in Iran frankly
Ahmedinejad better strap on his combat boots
One day Nazi, next day Zionist, next day Godless, next day Fundamentalist…
BOSTON — The state attorney general will file a multimillion dollar lawsuit Monday against the companies that worked on the Big Dig, alleging their negligence led to a tunnel ceiling collapse that killed a woman. Attorney General Tom Reilly is seeking unspecified damages for repairs, loss of tunnel use and toll revenue and other economic factors, which could add up to more than $150 million. yea! let’s drive up the cost of the big dig even more!

interesting read; http://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/27/business/27richer.html?ei=5065&en=2a8cfcbd2df7e6b0&ex=1165294800&partner=MYWAY&pagewanted=print and so the new wave on the ‘war on the middle class’ is starting.. figured it was only a matter of time. real or unreal; the indicators have been there for years.
Please define Middle Class ?
Wow, people are going into high demand — oops — absurdly high paying jobs? Who’d a thunk it?
combined household incomes of under 500,000 the real squeeze isn’t really felt by the middle class unless your combined income is under 100k tho
Russian Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov defended his country’s sale of arms to Iran, saying in an interview published Monday that air defense missile systems it is delivering will not upset the regional balance of power. Russia said on Friday that it had begun delivery of the Tor-M1 systems under a contract signed in December.
100k+ and most people feel comfortable.
“One in every 825 households earned at least $2 million last year, nearly double the percentage in 1989, adjusted for inflation” THIS HAS GOT TO STOP
thats when you deal drugs to make up the short fall personally I prefer the lucrative opertunities presented in the white slave market… harem hotties do command a goodly price interstingly, the arms business is what brought the US out of the 1930s depression. When FDR called us the “Arsenal of Democracy” it was becuase our industries were already tooled up for gun making to provide ordinance to BOTH SIDES before we got into WWII. Mater of fact we even sold a goodly but in the Spanish Civ War We also were making and selling high ticket arms throughout the 70s and 80s. Oyr main concern here is not Russia armign Iran but the fact that Lockheed-Martin, Rocedyne, GE and the like did NOT get a piece of the action
White Slave the movie?
Russia is in a unique place economically. They have risen from a empire to a capitalist oligarchy and are still sorting out the pieces TV I do not know the movie. term was used to describe the international trade in (usually teen) women ad yes it still happens and yes it is a LOT of money
Indeed.
if you look inside a few Shiek’s summer cottages you will find the haram al harem…and a eunich guarding it
What is the rate of species lost today? what was the rate 200 years ago?
I forgot about Russia, I often think of Africa, Middle East and Asia when I think of Slavery today.
