Well, let me tell ya something, Pepe. You guys invented the messiest food in the world when you came up with tacos. When you bite into the shell everything falls apart. I had to eat mine over the friggin' sink.

only white people eat tacos in shells, fwiw. I haven't had a taco shell in probably 10 years.

I eat mine on tortillas.

re: Does Bama's success scare anyone else?

Posted by MileHigh on 10/13/09 at 6:18 pm

what scares me more is that LSU won't even be # 2 in the west. we have almost always been bama's bitch. that is unlikely to change. But I would at least like to vie for #2.

clarification regarding pictures posted

Posted by MileHigh on 10/13/09 at 10:32 am

It appears that the site endorses pictures being posted on the site being used for things other than the original desired input.

So, if someone posts a picture, its acceptable to repost it? Or use it for things like contests and what not? And create derivative works (i.e. farks)?

TIA for clarity here.

I'm all for a free market, but at the same time, I would like some accountability from CEOs.

you can have accountability and the free market. The trick is to link compensation to performance. And that is really difficult to do.

I think figuring out how much executives get paid is really difficult. I am strong supporter of shareholder rights, this has appeal to me from a shareholder perspective.

But at the same time, that is why you elect board of directors. if you don't trust them to make good decisions, why bother?

people in denver, who were overall quite lukewarm to the hire, are getting excited.

You wouldn't believe the amount of 5-0 crap I have on my facebook news feed.

I dont see why someone would say its over priced. SUpply and demand should debunk that.

well I don't know about that. Most of the gold that is traded is paper gold, and that could drive up the value of the physical asset to an unreasonable value. But it should hold value decently in financial turmoil.

Gold is not a good long term investment and it can be backed up by historical data.

Gold should never been seen as an asset that produces a return, just a really safe asset.

hang onto it if it was given to you. Gold might be over valued at the moment, but having a krugerrand is pretty cool. And if obama crashes this country into a brick wall, then having a gold coin will come in handy.
