What a week of news stories!!!
Last week might have been the most news worthy of the year or last couple of years for that matter. Carrot Top is still…well…Carrot Top, the post-election rioting in Iran calmed down a bit, we lost Ed McMahon, Jon and Kate filed divorce papers, it was unveiled that Steve Jobs had a liver transplant, Albert Pujols belted 6 RBI’s against the Royals in one game!, we lost Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett within hours of each other, and just this weekend Billy Mays (the OxiClean guy) is found dead by his wife Sunday morning.
Oh, on the plate for this week, American troops are pulling out of Baghdad, Bernie Madoff gets 150 years in the pokie, and I need to fix one of our garage doors which came off the track.
Time for a new book about Bernard Madoff and all these suicides – I smell conspiracy
Bernie Madoff just looks like a crook
Do you think anyone out there is writing a story about the underworlds of the financial pyramid, and the small group of influential people who control it all? I can see the plot lines now. All of the world’s great puppet masters force Bernie Madoff to take the fall for their loses to keep some horrible secret about the Madoff family from becoming public. Madoff finally acquiesces to the scheme because he is dying of some illness, and it is the only way to save his family. Keep in mind Madoff is not a hero in this story but a co-conspirator who is just as guilty as the rest.
So the plan is hatched and the superpowers push their loses into his fund, and take the remaining money to make themselves whole, and to carry on with their world domination. In addition to Madoff’s fund they have also done this with major public corporations but in more elaborate ways, like CDOs, short selling and debt-swaps. Then of course some of the pack and/or their friend’s find out about the plot and can not live with the guilt, so the financial superpowers have them killed one-by-one until the story finally dies off and is buried at the highest levels of the world’s governments, including the President and the U.N.. Obviously this is just a movie or book plot, but I bet someone could come up with a more in depth version quickly. Just be sure to give me credit for the idea, because I could use the money, my Madoff investment is not looking so hot right now.
Heard It In A Bar RSS Feed- Texas – what the hell is wrong with you!? September 3, 2010I’m going to be honest with you, it is going to be very difficult for me to be calm about this. First, we had the Rep. Barton apologizing to BP for the Obama “shakedown”. Even his own party rolled their eyes and popped their Tums. I was up in arms over this and even got [...] […]She
- Lost is over and I actually miss it… September 3, 2010Six years of roller coaster loop de’ loops, dozens of undeveloped characters, and a story line that was as easy to follow as a chicken in a barnyard. If you didn’t watch Lost, you missed a show which challenged the fan to no end. Season after season of questions, theories, hypotheses’, cliff hanging plots, and a [...] […]kansasview
- Teetering on the edge…how does Bret Michaels do it? September 3, 2010I have to give Bret Michaels credit, he has battled a life of disease and he keeps bouncing back. At the age of six, he was diagonosed with Type I diabetes and has struggled to maintain his health all the while becoming an 80’s glam metal rock god, a history of hard hard partying, and what [...] […]kansasview
- A softball player who just happens to know the law, sign her up… September 3, 2010Does this woman really matter to you? If you look deep into the background of a possible supreme court justice, do you want actual bench experience or do you prefer someone who knows the law and has written a few hundred papers on well…the law? Princeton graduate, Harvard Law Dean,…on the surface at least Elena Kagan [...] […]kansasview
- When it rains for Tiger, it pours… September 3, 2010The muscle of this man has shrunk and shows more sign of atrophy as each new story surfaces. This blog did a pretty good job of leaving Tiger alone and I have to say after the recent events, I still stick to that credo. The bomb of the last couple months has dropped, the shrapnel has [...] […]kansasview
- Where have we been? September 3, 2010Well, a few good men and an even better woman started the idea of this blog and we owe it to someone to unspill the contents of our head, or at least mine. The time has come to once again say all the things I want to say and it’s an invitation for you as well! It’s [...] […]kansasview
- Brittany Murphy’s death is troubling September 3, 2010Not that it’s another tragic celebrity death, not that it’s another young life taken so early…these are all troubling and sad in their own right. It’s another tragic case of someone getting caught up in the web of drugs…the legal type! It truly saddens me that so many of these stars seek out more and more prescription [...] […]kansasview
- Internet fun for the weekend… September 3, 2010By far one of my favorite websites of late is called GraphJam.com. Essentially, the website attempts to break down the world and how we interact with it in a series of graphs. It is hilarious when you see how the world around us can be so easily summed up in a pie or bar chart. [...] […]kansasview
- So why are more companies not yet hiring? September 3, 2010U.S. Workers are still filing a large amount of unemployment claims and this is after five weeks of declines in this area. Where are the culprits and which industries are still hurting? It’s apparent as we have seen over the last year is that a gradual stabilization of the economy does not naturally translate to a increase [...] […]kansasview
- Facebook is down…Facebook is down…5:42 (cst) September 3, 2010This website is not a help desk for Facebook but it’s a civic duty to keep the American public aware of all possible natural disasters!! Facebook is down! Facebook is down! Don’t toss your Iphone in the river or hurl it at your wife and complain that it doesn’t work worth a s***. Here is the current [...] […]kansasview
