> They were still getting bonuses for SIGNING PEOPLE UP > when I left. Yep, you heard me right! Double face palm..

Where’s that photo of Picard and Riker both doing a face palm? Sarah, Herman, West, Bachman, *ANY* true blood conservative will do. We need to clean house and take out the trash. On all levels: federal, state, county, and municipal.

Amen.

Not being gullible. I just like to think people can be cured of such beliefs.

I agree, and it's pretty obvious that you're correct. A lot of conservatives are liberals who got mugged by reality.

Mamet is a very intersting character. I'm a few chapters into his new book, and all I can say at this point is "go read it." Mamet

Check this out: Ashton Kutcher's Surprisingly Successful Tech Investments. From Skype to Foursquare, the entertainer's smart decisions in the startup space make most venture capitalists look like amateurs.

Maybe he's a really smart guy, though I never expected him to be smart. Sometimes somebody who spots what's going on early may be more perceptive than someone who just reacts in kneejerk fashion based on an engrained system.
