gwnn Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 yahoo suspended my account for saying "want some cheese with that whine?

ggwhiz Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Dweeb poker players, a million in cash... it was only a matter of time but armed thugs shows no class. I saw a movie years ago (70's?) that I barely remember where (Robert Wagner?) broke into a card manufacturing plant, altered the plates to mark the cards and left no trace. Then he went on a Banco binge on the Riviera. I was in South Africa in 1999 when the news hit that the Casinos had solved mysterious losses from funny blackjack play by roving teams of players but the only one charged was the inside man at the card manufacturing plant. Sure wish I could find that movie again. Sure they wish they had seen it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aberlour10 Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 There are many unconfirmed informations about this raid. According to the last statement of the event promoter...one of the security guards is succeeded to snatch from the criminal the bag with over 500.000 € ( the main part of the stolen money ) in cash and save it. He was injured during this action but not very serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobowolf Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 Ahmadinejad Calls 9/11 ‘A Big Fabrication’ That's so crazy that surely no more than 15-20% of Americans believe it. I fear the days when you could step into the WC and be confident about not seeing the word "nano-thermite" are drawing to a close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winstonm Posted March 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 It's no crazier than Liz Cheney and Bill Kristol accusing the DOJ as being the Department of Jihad because attorneys who now work for the DOJ at one time represented terrorists suspects. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/richard-ad...l-qaida-justice And then having Wolf Blitzer on CNN spend 30 minutes reporting the McCarthy-like attack as some kind of actual "controversy".

No, it really is crazier. Much crazier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winstonm Posted March 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 I suppose you are right. After all, the same people who believe Liz about the "Al-Qaida 7" and the "Department of Jihad" also believe that Obama is a Marxist who was born in Kenya and is a practicing Muslim. And there is certainly nothing crazy about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
