dittoburg, I sure hope that isn’t true. A crazy, out of control What provides so much more comedic fodder for us!
After the what? got his ass handed to him yesterday on here perhaps he’s toned it down a bit to look less ridiculous.
The subway system should focus on offering afforable advertising to local businesses and stop trying to please the big corporations. Disney doesn’t make a neighborhood, but great local shops and restaurants do. If you have facial hair you can’t work for Disney (hey didn’t Walt have facial hair)? Disney has hypnotized your children to raid your pockets.
Grammatically this was one of the What’s stronger posts. And it ends with a thoughtful and helpful suggestion of recommended reading material. Is a kinder, gentler, more fluent in respectable Englisn What in the offing?

Paranoid yet?
At least you didn’t call it Barnes and Nobles.

Fannie’s results come two days after Freddie surprised investors with a loss that was three times wider than analysts anticipated. Fannie’s credit-related expenses rose 66 percent to $5.3 billion and Chief Executive Officer Daniel Mudd said the company anticipates a “significant” increase in credit loss reserves through 2008.
“Neither of these companies have properly provisioned for what we’re heading into,” said Paul Miller, an analyst at Friedman, Billings, Ramsey & Co. in Arlington, Virginia, who has an “underperform” rating on both companies. “This thing is going to get worse and last longer and deeper than they originally thought.”
Hey Dumbasses guess what? The Taxslave will have to bail out Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. This will cost about 250 billion dollars and you thought it was “contained”,,,
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
BTW I suggest you go down to Barnes and Noble and pick up this book.
