    - did he put a progressive administration in? -- nm - Remlik Mar 10, 19:45 2
      - Relatively speaking. No big changes, but he's done a few promising things since he took over for Fidel. - TWuG Mar 10, 19:54
      - No, just his own repressive one. -- nm - Ender Mar 10, 19:53

I just saw mickpix's girlfriend in Sunshine Cleaning. Without her 24 anger mojo, she comes across a lot like Louis in Ghostbusters. - Max Mar 10, 19:25 [youtube] 2
- you know of course, this means war -- nm - pigby Mar 10, 19:26 1
  - many audiences were chuckling in the theater that evening I tell you. -- nm - Max Mar 10, 19:29

    - yeah, I didn't like her either. - Callisto Mar 10, 19:45
    - agreed -- nm - Stacy Mar 10, 19:35
  - I wanted to hate her performance but I keep thinking she actually nailed the delivery on a hatable character who's not unlike a lot of real people. -- nm - Max Mar 10, 19:31 1

CCC: It's not bad at all for Jon to call CNBC out and further swat at Kramer when Kramer felt hurt by his first dose. - Qale Mar 10, 18:44 9
- Kramer made a huge mistake when he went on the air, denied ever saying to buy Bear Stearns and calling it an urban legend. - Trish Mar 10, 19:26 3
  - I understand it completely. I think my point is getting lost though in that I'd like more fun and less bite. -- nm - Qale Mar 10, 19:52
  - They know those cameras are on, right? -- nm - Reagen Mar 10, 19:30 1
    - they know the public has a memory like a fruit fly, its just those pesky media types who can google and have archives of tapes -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 10, 20:38
