Stock Market plummets 634 points...THANK GOD!

The shortage of posters on this board may have something to do with the low standards of discourse and general lack of intellectual challenge presented by it.

Speaking just for myself, if there were some serious posters who took themselves and the board with something other than a grain of salt, I might be inclined to contribute more often.

As it is, those racing to be to the bottom seem to be driving out those with more lofty aspirations.

Whatever.

lol i would say arrogance.

While the Capt spends his time lecturing this board on how we should be more intellectual and Armchair makes a spot-on diagnosis, I feel the need to distract myself with a copy of today's NY Post.

I shoot from the hip

Wow. So Murdoch is now our new standard for journalistic excellence. Is this like saying, hey, you think we're bad, look at this sucker!

It could be.

...or it could be another sign of the "end of the world".

The same "end of the world" that has been predicted since the beginning of time.

The beat goes on.

that's not a good looking hooker picture, with the budget they have, they should of hired a better looking model.
