  1. You should hear what this guy has to say about it: A second opinion
  2. A] supplier of parts to the Pentagon billed them $998,798 to send 2 washers with a value of 38 cents to an Army installation in Texas, the tip of the iceberg in a Pentagon over-billing scam totaling over $20 million. The two sisters who owned the company and lived ostentatiously on their criminal activities discovered a loophole in the Pentagon’s shipping system. Supplies to combat areas and military installations that had been labeled “priority” were paid automatically. Charlene Corley is the surviving sister and owner of C&D Distributors of Lexington, SC. She is being fined only $750,000 and “faces” 20 years on each count of an indictment for conspiracy to commit wire fraud and conspiracy to launder money. The government is hoping to recoup some of its $20.5 million by selling off “homes, beach property, jewelry and ‘high-end automobiles”. It cannot recover the money from their vacations — a Pentagon spokesperson said, “They took a lot of vacations.”

    nuff said, Tom Brady is 25/27 with 3 TDs, wtf!? He sold his soul to the devil. My hopes and dreams are crushed, I'm goin out to the bar. Condolences to the Seahawks, I wanted them to win as well. At least I didn't bet on $$$ on these games
  5. not to worry, this guy's dealin with it
  6. Broke my fibula Dec 2nd quite low down and had 4 screws and a plate put in. The ankle, ligaments etc were all untouched. The ortho doc advised me to stay on crutches until Jan 22nd. That's all fine and my recovery is going well. Does anyone have experience of recovering from a leg injury and how quickly you can ski again? I was thinking poss. in Feb I could get out and do some skinning up hills and just glide back down. I'll save the more streno stuff until sometime in March. Is that crazy talk? When is my bone actually "healed" Ryan
  7. the only holiday worth celebrating: I-wm9N0KiAs
  8. I imagine there's probably a room full of Phd s working at some hedge fund working on that play right now.
  9. Well if the BC government has it's way soon we'll have lots more tourists... we'll be employing the grandchildren of the current batch of aussies Tourism Action Plan
  10. You can go up the Fraser Canyon as well on Hwy 1, maybe a bit faster coming from the States
  11. My 8th day out but first at a resort. I'd always been worried by the fact that my tele bindings don't release and now I know why. Took a tumble, broke an ankle and now I've got a couple of dollars of metalwork holding it all together. Bring on the spring skiing!! The upside is I should be in good shape for rock climbing next year cause I'll spend all winter doing chinups and have legs like toothpicks. Or I might just sign up for cable tv and
  12. Come on, nobody else uses beer fridges!? That's not our problem, that's their problem! I always thought Bud tasted like urine but when it's warm the resemblance is uncanny. ...not that I know what piss tastes like of course
  13. And so I guess this steaming turd of a logo for something else? Not sure why they keep stealing all their ideas from the natives and then making them all squishy & cute...christ they made the Sasquatch look gay! He's gonna be pissed.
  14. Personally I thought it was being to be a property developer...condos condos condos!! Just watch out when they start leaking 20 years from now

    Olympic Mascots

    They've unveiled the mascots for the Vancouver Olympics, the Sasquatch is alright but I don't know about the other two.
  16. Is that a big shit eating grin I see on your face?
  17. How about this idea: Dutch may give financial reward to kidney donors Nicola Smith and Aaron Gray-Block, Amsterdam THE Dutch health minister, Ab Klink, is considering a recommendation to offer free health insurance for life to anyone who donates a kidney for transplant. Link
  18. If you put a '$' sign in front of the A or the 1 I believe it holds it constant, i.e. $A1 just keeps the A the same but the 1 will change and vice versa.
  19. Tragic but if I were the RCMP I would have done the same. Post 9/11 you don't mess around in the airport. What were they supposed to do? If I got stuck in the airport for 8 hours I wouldn't start throwing stuff around.
  20. haha smartass She'll be on tele's again this weekend after some consideration.
  21. I haven't had time to read it yet but it's kind of funny that the top tax bracket is about 44%, throw in all the sales taxes etc. and I don't see how they're paying only 30% of their income in tax?
  22. First you get the gas...then you get the money...then you get the women..
  23. I like the conclustion, tax the rich more! err..why don't you lower the tax rate on the poor instead?
  24. an AuTomaton if you will
