This is just... I don't know. Pure punishment. My performance today was ghastly. I can't believe music like this exists... shoot me.

The RO Report, "Fuckt Dinosaur" Edition

The Quiet Coup, Indeed...

My friends over at HCPG have been updating their blog again by offering up some very good reading. Incidentally, in an attempt to grow their readership, they have been experimenting with "sexing" the place up, via an edgy advertising campaign. Through an inside source I am able to provide you all with a bit of a scoop regarding the direction they're heading.

Anyway, it will take some time, but read the following article in its entirety to get a very unbiased opinion on how our financial system got into its current mess and what we're going to have to do to get out of it.

Normally, I would wait until Friday to post this with my links. But since the article is longer than what I normally post, and since your reading comprehension skills have been hampered by surfing porn all day long in between making stock trades, I decided to post it by itself.
