Who cares about that, it's just a fucking movie and the novel itself was just a bunch of entwined stories, each with a boring plot, as well as unsympathetic characters. Not only that but this movie would also be done by the cretin who shat his lack of talent upon Miller's "300"...

So what, the movie won't come because Ameritards love their political system and the way it allow the bigger guys to screw the smaller and, eventually, other big guys when they can.

So, instead of whinning about how having that movie coming too late will destroy your lives, why don't you just focus on what's real, such as that beginning war in Georgia which is due to your overlords' cupidity and not to the Russians'?

Fuck you.

When I see such moderation, I guess the mods have even less life than they did before I switched to this account...

Altough my screen name is trollish, the question I'm about to ask is not.

Do you consider this picture (warning: Goatse link!, but this is my point) to be pornographic?

Let's get through it: Shocking? Yes. It's the intended purpose. Graphical? Yes. Disgusting? well, the first time, it sure is. Sexual? This is where I don't know.

I truely desire to have an answer to this question: is the goatse pornographic? and... btw... please state whether you own a cat or not while answering.

This is here.

29 August 2007: In the weeks preceding the 2001 attacks on America, there were very significant financial warning signs that something big - and bad - could be about to happen. Huge surges in purchases of "put options" on stocks of United Airlines and American Airlines, the two airlines used in the attacks, and "put options" on Merrill Lynch & Co., and Morgan Stanley, stocks of two financial services companies hurt by the attack were noted. Put options are essentially "bets" that a stock or stock index will drop on or before a certain date; the larger the drop, the bigger the gain for the purchaser of the option.

Fast forward to the present day, and we have the same type of trading that took place in the days that preceded the 9/11 attacks - but on a larger scale. Nearly $1 billion of "put options" have been purchased, basically betting that Standard and Poor's 500 index will fall significantly by the third Friday in September. A large number of these options have also been purchased calling for 50% decline by September 21, 2007. For example, a 5% drop in the Dow Jones Industrial Average would be the current equivalent of about 670 points. A decline of 11% would equal about 1,470 points in today's market. Obviously, larger drops, such as a 50% decline, would cause an unprecedented market collapse. Money would be made for the purchaser(s) of the put options - but the same purchaser(s) stand to lose over $1 BILLION in the investment if the market remains relatively static through September 21, 2007.

The questions are: who can stand to lose $1 BILLION, who will gain in the wake of such a devastating collapse, who are the investors, and what do they know that we don't?

Although he is innocent, ten years ago Kenneth Foster was sentenced to death. If the state of Texas doesn't admit to its macabre mistake, on August 30th he will be executed, never having committed even the slightest crime.
YOU have the power to make that stop... or not to care.
