90's soft rock sux, I just realized

Sitting at the Madison right now, doing JD.
The third floor where it is quiet they have the Goo Goo Dolls on the
flatscreen. Have, in fact, the Greatest video hits of the last decade.
It's annoying.

Never realized how much of that stuff was utterly disposable. No wonder
I wasn't particular rebellious as a teenager. How was I suppose to
identitfy with something so sucky. Go fuck yourself Smashmouth.

Fuck. I hope they keep making those skinny suits. I love those things. And they fit me like a glove. On the other hand, I never like those fake patches and tears.

Conservatives lukewarm to BCE deal

Election first, takeover later

A certain unease must be settling over the business community as the Harper Conservatives are showing more and more that they aren't really that Business-friendly.

Under Chretien/Martin, Liberals would just say the usual patrotic stuff, then they would just let companies do whatever.

But the Conservatives are more vulnerable to attack on issues like this, and the old Reform base still has significant influence in the party.

So, Liberals are in fact far more big business friendly than the Conservatives. Something to keep in mind when corporate donations comes around next election.

Jim Cramer’s Guide to Market Manipulation

The NYT just did a little piece on a video Jim Cramer made about how to manipulate the market.

This is the money quote:
What’s important when you are in that hedge fund mode is to not do anything remotely truthful, because the truth is so against your view, that it’s important to create a new truth, to develop a fiction.
- Jim Cramer



Well, at least he is honest.
