Thanks!

I also didn't get to listen to much of Mike Malloy (who is probably the left's version of Levin)...I heard him rip on Beck a little and that didn't disappoint me either.

Just to clarify, I know not all right-wing talkers are off the deep end...but when I think of right-wing talkers, the first ones that come to mind are the usual suspects (Rush, Hannity, Beck, etc.).

C's sig line.

Last part, hall of fame post, is invisible. If you want to see what it refers to, you'll have to find his actual sig lines.


Come on man. I thought we were all trying to do better. Making it 'passive' doesn't lessen its 'aggressive'.

I found it looking through some old threads.

I thought it was well written, well articulated and accurate post. If I could have taken the names out to protect the guilty, I would have.
I found it funny, especially when reading the reply to it.
Meh.

What the hell are you doing looking so close at my sig anyway? Sig stalker?

A post about integrity. That's what I find ironic.

I posted about integrity. Why would that be ironic?
Should I not aspire to be better than I am?

I'm laughing that it's just now hitting the nightly news about the student loan provisions in the health bill.

Well, it's funny to me because we (those of us employed in FA) have seen this coming for a few years now, but I don't think anyone noticed it was happening "out there" however some people are now really pissed!

I've worked with private lenders and I currently work with direct lending. Direct lending isn't new, it was just up to the schools before. I see good things and bad things about both ways, really.

And with the increased loan volume and now even more public scrutiny, you're going to be hearing a lot about default rates (something we address as part of strategy and procedure in our normal work dealings.) I love this job: things are always changing and it's never, ever, boring.

It always amuses me when I see maintenance people using the blower in the rain and as it was yesterday, rain and wind!

I would be one of those annoying employees who would ask if there was some better use for my time considering there isn't any debris that is going to be blown away today.

oh and the other thing is to leave bits of paper. I would pick the paper up and maybe use a rake if the blower wasn't effective.

geez and these people have a job!

This could slide into annoyance if I thought about it too much.
