Brilliant personnel or business model. Overpaying for something that's overpriced.

Wonder if Phil Robertson eats pork, shellfish, crayfish,catfish,etc. as a Christian?

"These you may eat of all that are in the water: whatever in the water has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers; that you may eat. But all in the seas or in the rivers that do not have fins and scales, all that move in the water or any living thing which is in the water, they are an abomination to you. They shall be an abomination to you; you shall not eat their flesh, but you shall regard their carcasses as an abomination. Whatever in the water does not have fins or scales; that shall be an abomination to you."

" And the swine, though it divides the hoof, having cloven hooves, yet does not chew the cud, is unclean to you:"

Wonder if his response would be: If I don't like it, fuck that part of the Bible & a 15year old?

If it was a bubble in 2007 then the same values in 2013 is still a damn bubble because wage growth has been virtually zero.

Its because THIS time it's DIFFERENT! All cash different.

...and lower mortgage rates.....

Mortgages are for ASSHOLES!

Looks cheap to me.

It feels just like the last bubble to me. Have we all already forgotten how it felt before the crash, with everyone screaming, buy, buy, buy now before it is too late? I can still remember the pressure to buy, the complete lack of real information in the media. I have an article I saved from the week before the bubble burst in a major local newspaper about why it's never been a better time to buy, and why you should do anything to "get in" and if you can't you will be left out in the cold...all statistics being backed by the National Real Estate Association.

Wow, a 5 year old could could have made 31% in the stock market.
How much did the bears make?

The volume of all gold produced in any one year (worldwide) would be a cube approximately 14 feet on each side

12 million people are millionaires:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/expat-money/10158420/A-record-breaking-number-of-millionaires-in-the-world.html

3000 tonnes / year production:

http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/11/20/gold-mine-output-idUSL5N0J44T720131120

leaves a measly 8 oz of mine production per millionaire.

I'm not particularly bearish on gold at these prices. i.e. DCA is good enough now.

Wish I'd been DCAing in the 1990s, sigh.

Interesting (maybe useless facts): the total amount of gold ever produced is approximately the volume of a cube 82 feet on each side.

The total amount of platinum ever produced would fit into a cube approximately 20 feet on each side.

The volume of all gold produced in any one year (worldwide) would be a cube approximately 14 feet on each side.

That's the point.

HEY YOU says

Wonder if Phil Robertson eats pork, shellfish, crayfish,catfish,etc. as a Christian?

This just shows that you don't know the Bible. As Christians we are bound by the New Testament. Many things prohibited in the old testament that were changed/repealed in the New Testament. If he were claiming to Jewish (converted or otherwise) then you'd have a point, but he's claiming to be Christian.

What liberals call 'white privilege' is just the genetic IQ gap between whites and hispanics/blacks.

White Privilege is what keeps Jesse "James" Jackson and his kind well funded and politically connected for many generations...

God forbid WP disappears and so does his 'bread and butter".

They are obvious hand signals. What is it that you don't understand?

Yeah, every time a mother strokes a child's hair it's a clear signal sent straight from the neocon-zionist overlords. Or not.

So what is your motive, Bigsby? You said I should not waste my retirement this way but you must not be retired then? Who do you work for?

Motive? Showing what complete bullshit it is that you post.
And who do I work for? None of your business. But I know you used to work for the US government. Some might think you are a plant to make truthers look like morons. You must have got a really good bonus this year.

And still deleting posts I see.

bgamall4 says

No, I did not work for the US government. I worked for county government. And I helped poor people you idiot.

So you say. Why should I believe anything you say? Everything is a conspiracy according to you.

bgamall4 says

It is none of my business because if we all knew we would know you are a NWO cretin. There are cretins and there are NWO cretins. Here is where you need to be an atheist. God has always opposed those empires and men who refuse to honor the sovereignty of nations. God warned us once at the Tower of Babel. Now we have the Tower of Basel and we have a destruction of sovereignty once again.

God's wrath will come upon you Bigsby, sooner or later. You may be anonymous to us but God has every hair on your head counted, and your end will be dreadful. Mark my words Bigsby, that time will come.

It doesn't matter if you believe what I say or not. That is totally irrelevant. Believe what you will.

Believing or not believing what someone says is totally irrelevant? You sure inhabit a strange world.

Strategist says

Thomas, are you in a time warp? We are about to start 2014.

LOL! and WE still cant shake off the 2009 recession, still with us today.

And those who falsely accuse parents of faking their childrens' deaths?

It is a known fact that absence of red eyes and or absence of tears is a sign of no emotion. If you add the hyperventilation, the lying interviews, the reading from scripts into that mix, I feel comfortable in accusing these parents of lying. I have no problem at all with it.

Desperate much? And you are accusing them of lying over the internet. When are you going to do it face to face?

Bigsby says

You deleted my post asking if you were a member of the one-third of Americans who don't believe in evolution. Good grief.

Just tidying up. That is for another debate. I believe that DNA makes the same animal over and over. That is pretty scientific, actually. The burden of proof would be on those who don't believe dogs begat dogs.

But I don't argue the point because the gospel is the power of God, not winning a debate over evolution.

You were the one who brought up your God and clay. Is that not for a different discussion? Perhaps you should focus on cleaning up your own posts. You're going to be busy given how often you stray off topic.

bgamall4 says

Bigsby says

Arff.

Now you bark? Is it a permanent condition?

Laughter seems to be my permanent condition when I read your posts.

And why do you delete posts that you quote? Rather stupid, wouldn't you say?

Jesus h christ bigsby wuit engaging him,,,,,you're more of a clown then he is with this nonsense because you allow this crap to remain at the top of the home page

No, I am condensing the thread because most of your input is fluff.

The thread is titled emilys cockeyed arm cannot go unchallenged. Did you expect this to yield substance

bgamall4 says

No, I am condensing the thread because most of your input is fluff.

You should delete all your posts in that case.

Gun ownership is a fundamental right of Americans, and is not meant to start some shooting in the street. It is to keep the Zionists honest and at bay.

Well, did you think you would learn American history being British?

Do you think they ban classes on world history in Europe?

GOOG is more than 40% higher than the pre-crisis in 2008.
... number of Googlers' wealth have increased by ... %.

AAPL is more than 170% higher than the pre-crisis in 2008.

Since 2008, there are
... number of new millionaires/multi-millionaires/billionaires from FB.
... number of new millionaires/multi-millionaires/billionaires from TWTR.
... number of new millionaires/multi-millionaires/billionaires from TSLA

Many employees of above companies can easily pay CASH for at least one house in SFBA, some many more. Many multiples more can afford the 20% downpayment. In conclusion, why is it so surprisingly that the real estate prices have went above the pre-crisis high of 2008?

The entire employee count, plus stock holders of each of the above, accounts for what, 1 or 2%, of the entire bay area population? If that?

There's what, 13 million people that live here?

Yeah.

QE, to infinity and beyond!

FYI;
The current population of the 9 county SFB area is 7.15 million. If you use the OMB classification, or 11 counties, the SF Bay area population is 8.37 million.

because that would be rational thinking.

Could you post those same photos of those two different women a few more times? The first dozen times did not work.

And another dozen posts of the crying video would also make your research much stronger, I think.

A few minutes ago CNBC announced the Dow Jones just hit another all time high.
It is now above 16,500. With a few hours left for 2013, it is about 30% higher for the year, the highest gain in 16 years.
My friend, that is not a sign of a recession, but the sign of an economy about to charge ahead.

Well if you bought the RIGHT car back in 1938 and kept it up you could sell it today for a bit better than inflation

Except that you'd be WAY too old to enjoy the money.

Depends on how smart you were with the car along the way. If you rented it out for special events, movies etc you might have generated enough income to buy one of these in the mid 50's:

http://www.hagerty.com/price-guide/1957-Mercedes~Benz-300SL

Do the same and you might have picked up one of these secondhand in the 1970's

And all the while with beautiful women throwing themselves in your way.

The car IS the money to be enjoyed.

When it came to her own skin, Ayn Rand was just another commie pinko.

Long live the commie pinkos! Parasites rule, until the hosts are eviscerated husks!

Then, it's time for face 'n yams.

Wait a minute this is fucking rich, you are saying her ideology has failed her? Even though she died worth a million, back when a million was worth a million bucks?

Then you go into this mental gymnastics that has her scrubbing her undershorts at the YWCA and eating cat food if she were alive today.

You guys are so fucking funny, it's really entertaining to watch you work.
You know it's been almost 30 years since her death, and She would be even 30 years older today, and since the Old farts are evil money magnets, then I counter your ludicrous claims with a more plausible fact, while her million dollars wouldn't be worth doodeley squat into today's nest egg building materials.
Who's to say she wouldn't parleyed her million dollars back then in the Apple start up. I wager that if she were alive today, she would have been the CEO of Apple after she killed Steve Jobs off with that strategically jabbed Pancreas Cancer jab.

Here's one for you might really like.

So this Liberal research Vessel went to Antarctica to research all of the Ice melting on the planet and to prove once and for all that Global warming is for realzies. 'cept they got frozen in their tracks due to this weird shit they've been ignoring all along called "ICE".
So then some Scandinavians tried to come to their rescue and free them from the ice so they could continue the Lords work. But then they got stuck in the ice. So then the Chinese being the attention seeking whores they are, tried to send an ice breaker to rescue them and ran into the first ice sheet they not able to penetrate just six miles from the Ship of researchers, vacationers, thrill seekers, and grant and trust fund babies.

Yeah fun times fun times. In spite of all this the team says this all just proves that Climate change is for real. Because nobody expects an impenetrable pack ice in the Antarctic.

Fair enough. 7 million instead of 13.

It's still a miniscule portion of the population.

Amusing.

My favorite parts of your interpretation of this story.

1) The purpose of the trip was science related to global warming. Therefore they are "liberals." You can't make this shit up.

2) Their being trapped by ice is some kind of implicit proof of how wrong these liberal douchebags are with their assumptions about global warming.

A quote from the story you didn't finish comprehending...

"We're stuck in our own experiment," the Australasian Antarctic Expedition said in a statement Monday. “We came to Antarctica to study how one of the biggest icebergs in the world has altered the system by trapping ice. We ... are now ourselves trapped by ice surrounding our ship.”

The fact that nearly every year the projections of global warmings impact on polar ice caps have been exceeded, is a fact that can't be denied. But hey, this story and your misunderstanding of it do make for a good distraction. The timing is interesting too, coinciding with the most dire predictions about global warming to have come out yet.
