Obituary March 18th, 2008 The life of Bear Stearns was prematurely taken this week when the US economy realized the effects of the diabolical schemes this loan Bank and its furiously hell-bent ilk planned and perpetrated on the lower and middle classes for almost 100 years, cooperating with the deceitfully obtuse Federal Reserve. When Bear Stearns’s value crashed, losing millions to the devaluation of the dollar, it was picked apart and cannibalized by the Fed for two dollars a share, only to be remembered as an example of rich soulless bastards getting their just deserts. During the early years, Bear Stearns earned a nice niche for itself as a banking franchise while specializing in loans, securities, and corporate/individual credit. During the years, the company saw many successes, including the dehumanization of Americans who were stretched just a little too thin and could not pay their bills. Bear Stearns was there to assist them in their times of need by raising interest rates ...

A cold December day in 1850 South Carolina seceded from the Union. Following the secession were multiple acts of aggression by the US Federal Government. When reinforcing Fort Sumter, the federal government began a new chapter in American History; they refused to let several states leave a union which no longer served their interest, including the Palmetto State's. Following the Fed's antagonism and a battle or two in SC, many southern states also seceded from a government they found to be dangerous and degenerate. War ensued. With over 600,000 deaths, almost 1 million casualties, and unquantifiable fiscal damage to the southern states, the south lost what many consider a second War for Independence . Kosovo faces similar struggles – though not identical in motivation – to the Antebellum South, they seek autonomy apart from a prejudice government. The US Federal government seems to have a double standard. Though a hypothetical situation, what if California were to secede...

I used to loath sports I found them to be arbitrarily exciting, nothing real worth my time. When I found hockey, my opinion changed. I was in the 14th row from the ice, five days ago, when San Jose Sharks defeated the Montreal Canadiens 6-4. It was a glorious match and the excitement still flows through my veins.

Ron Paul kept his congressional seat. I thought you all should know. He won with about 70% of the votes in his favor. the neo-con, Chris Pedan, who opposed him hadn't a chance. Obviously, the establishment thought they could sink their puss-dripping, gingivitises-cloaked teeth into the home district of the taxpayer's white knight; they're sorely mistaken. If the 14th district of Texas has anything to do with it, the warmonger beast of psychopathic earth funking will not, I repeat, WILL NOT take him away from us. Ron Paul, the true patriot, conservative, and legislative hero opposes and always has opposed: Restricting the internet The Iraq war Any tax increase Any corporate welfare check Environmentally disruptive legislation The Nazi-esc, fascist, media regimes who manipulate and infect and decay the gray matter of dream-filled American cerebrum. Protecting the evil, maniacal credit agency bastards who rob us of financial freedom by promising big dreams of spending bli...

I drank beer today. Not unusual considering it's one of my favorite byproducts of microscopic organisms farting and crapping out otherwise unlikable resources like wheat and water. Things that really are no good without some sort of alteration. In this case, fairly major ones. I had these beers early in the day, which is the best time to drink, you know, to get an early start on a happy ending to my day off. But, they were consumed after watching a movie: Definitely, Maybe . I saw this movie with another man. I was consequently accused of being “gay.” I found this accusation humorous considering my secondary, though decisive, motives for watching the film. How it was “gay” to see this movie with another dude is beyond me. It seems gay in a way, I guess. But it was a heterosexual film, with good actors, a good story, and many attractive women. Again, how is this gay? “Gay” involves various physical activities in which I have never engaged, a sexual preference not ref...
