I don't know, but hopefully the Netherlands attacks us soon so Jocephus can do his thing without fear of an oppressive gov't.

Well of course it helped to grow the economy. But now we are facing the consequences of those actions.

It's basically like saying that stealing a TV was good, because you now have a new TV. Then the government pardoning you when you get caught.

Better yet. Become a big time banker, make millions of dollars, and then when the market sours you can escape with your gold parachute.

Then go steal a TV.

It'll be a better thread from here on out if you don't.
I really don't see the point. Later.

There are a lot of sad Packer fans up here in Wisconsin this morning. And we even saw a few joyful Cowboy fans at the pancake house this morning.
