I need to stuff my face some more. Where is my cake?

You know, one thing you said does scare me, because my worst case scenario for all of this is not France, but more the communist revolution. Enough people are affected, and they are masses of losers like the peasants of Russia, China, and France, that it is conceivable that there could be an upheaval. Reality, you could actually get your way, we could have regulation, price controls, tax payer bailouts, and more restrictions on our freedoms.
As for your other comments I trust the other readers more than I trust your opinion of my thoughts. You might take a minute to reflect that all of the links, all of the stories show without any shadow of a doubt that we have been right all along.

Again no point. What is your deal?

It's cute that you are trying to be clever, but I am really trying to see if you have a point of view or if you just had a bad day, or maybe you have a lender calling you demanding payment.

Maybe you should have started checking this site out beforehand. It has been observed that most of the people that have a problem with us don't like the message because it is bad news for them. You are not the first.

Hey, Peter P,

I don't know if you noticed how I worked food into the thread topic, but I was thinking of you ;-) .

Thanks, brother. :)

We should have another blog party!

I'd say you are the one who can't be questioned. You made a silly assertion, I followed your logic to its conclusion and you don't like the outcome. Throwing terms like yuppie out are revealing your hand. You just don't like the message.

Sounds like a plan --maybe we can do it at my place this time!

Oh, and for the record, Peter P is *not* fat or ugly. Callow? maybe...
(just kidding)

I am at least overweight, according to some standard somewhere. I need to try the Atkin's sometime. :)

I like cake as well.

I hereby ask him. Retroactively. For the record.

Perhaps a dark chocolate cake. Or a light cheese cake.

Light cheese cake is the best. Yellow cake with chocolate frosting rocks.

BTW, back to the subject, I keep getting called by mortgage companies for refinancing. Looks like rentor can get HELOCs very soon.

Yellow cake with chocolate frosting rocks.

Will that be similar to Black Forest cake?

Hey, just do 'what everyone else does' forge your name on a grant deed, then go crazy. Or even easier, just assume your landlord's identity.

Did someone mention blog party? When? Where?

Now, I'm going to have to make a cake tomorrow, you've got me craving a moist yellow cake now.

Sheez, I was the one who proposed Bubblepalooza. That would be awesome.

you’ve got me craving a moist yellow cake now

I did bring a moist yellow cake (with cream outside) for the last blog party. :)

I bought it from a Danish bakery though.

Peter are you up in San Francisco? Where do you all meet?

who gives a shit.

Good question! You should ask yourself.

Did someone mention blog party? When? Where?

Probably my place - maybe next month - Pasadena area.

Cool, I'm in San Diego.

Peter are you up in San Francisco? Where do you all meet?

Last blog party was down in Santa Barbara. It was a good labor day (?) trip.

San Diego is lovely. Which part are you in?

We can use "Reality" as the Piñata.
(kidding, of course)

North County. City of San Marcos.

Good night everyone.

Reality bites.

Good night folks....keep me posted on the party.

Reality bites

Well, Patrick set this up as a "reality parser." :)

Who is Malcom?

In the middle.

A Black Forest cake is a multilayered (though not necessarily multi-tiered cake made with a dark chocolate batter, filled with sour cherries, kirsch syrup, and whip cream, then topped with dark chocolate shavings.

Valerie Plame,

Val,

No hard feelings? :)

Scooter

Scooter Libby was not convicted of outing Valerie Plame. He was convicted of obstruction of justice.

Why isn't Robert Novak in prison?

So, no hard feelings?

PAR,

LOVE the "top 10" list!

I realize you intended it primarily in jest but #9 isn't an entirely bad idea. I met our local District 18 Rep (really by accident) and afterwards left a msg. with his asst. If we're not talking about, who will?

Don't get me wrong I'm a free market guy but why is it that we continue to have bubbles that won't quit until AFTER they've hit the wall?

I have client appts. all day so please do keep up the good fight! :)

Valerie,

All the love! Don't forget to write!

Scooter

astrid,

Why isn't Robert Novak in prison? Must be that famous liberal media protecting him.

Instead of reporting on sob cases like Mr. Galindo (there must be tens of thousands of these in California alone) I would like to see some actual investigative reporting going on. I'd like to see some solid investigative stories about Doug Feith, about Avigdor Lieberman, about CEO pay/board relations, about the actual facts around the housing bubble, about Hillary Clintons voting record up to and after the war in Iraq (she just seems like a pro-choice neocon, IMO), about Halliburton's sales of nuclear technology (from their office in Tehran)in Iran into 2002.

But no, the 'liberal' media has given us such great, investigative reporting on the death of Anna Nicole Smith and Brittany Spears haircuts. The NYT reports on the Libby trial, but ignores real investigative reporting and has stories by Judith Miller that are basically just propoganda pieces for the VP's office.

Democracy can't survive without a functioning free press.
