  1. Pete, ok here’s your diet till you get better. Breakfast, Quaker’s old fashioned oatmeal, lunch a delicious shake. You get protein (like chocolate whey), a banana, strawberries, a little yogurt, flax seed oil, ice and water, grind up and yum. Then for dinner, pureed lentil soup (not too spicy). Have cottage cheese sprinkled with cinnamon on top for snack.

  2. Dear people who are discussing the earnings and tax payments of General Electric:

    You understand neither the top line nor the bottom line. You do not understand GE’s global operations, where they do business, how many global jurisdictions they pay taxes to, what kind of net operating losses they have in the United States, what kind of cross border tax management policies they have in place.

    Your knowledge is limited to a big number (earning) and a small or nonexistent number (US tax payments) that you probably heard on NPR. Congratulations, now you know about as much about GE’s tax situation as you do about the procedures for launching the space shuttle.

    “oooh pretty spaceship fly high fast!!! Can I launch next one?”

    Carry on.
