    Using those figures, if you draw a graph on a dollar vs pound of silicone, I believe you'll have a perfectly flat line.

    compare Fortune 100 CEOs pay (or total compensation package) over the same period, percent-wise.

    There's still a glass ceiling, I'd reckon.

    I used to be disgusted. Now, I'm just amused.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    What the hell is going on around here? We get a couple of yahoos on here and the whole friggin tone of the forum has to change because a few people get their feelings hurt or don't like what is posted. Toughen up or shut up!

    eh, gotta try not to worry about it
    it's all good Joe. If the stuff on this board, on all sides of the aisle, are the biggest worries we have, then life is pretty good.

    I know Louie, it's just rediculous that people are PMing Justin with BS, and send letters and emails to Polk administration. You don't like a thread, don't read it. You don't like what someone is saying put them on the ignore list. I have just put three idiots on my ignore list just this past week.

    This crap never happened before! Hell PMs are no longer private. Children are posting or forwarding PMs to a mod or worse yet Polk admins. What's really a damned shame is that these threads that are getting shut down aren't even making it to the Hall of Shame. That is one hilarious category!!!! You can read for hours laughing you butt off.

    It is all good when these yahoos aren't crying all the time.

    STFU Joe, no one wants to hear a peep from you!

    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin
