My favorite movie moment?

In one theater, I found myself setting next to Paul Reubens...

Shouldn't this be in speculation?

Then, start another thread and auction it off.

made with raspberries freshly picked no more than three hours ago.

So, which farmer did you mug to get them?


I mug farmers for barn wood. Poor little old ladies for raspberries... after they purchase their lottery tickets off WebSpawner.connnn, of course.

you can move it to any forum you like on the bottom left of this page.  I think this should be in custom hardware right?

I don't believe that's the case once a mod/admin moves it. BTW, this is where it was in the first place.

The move was probably warranted. No harm!

Wouldn't it be ironic if in the near future this thread that was moved to off-topic becomes warranted in the section it was moved from?

Nott dissing the move, for it was called for, with apologies for putting it there in the first place, but at the time it probably was warranted till the warrant came.  Grin

It saddens me that Sonny Chris Vleisides is currently on the straight-and-narrow path, for we'll never see the likes of the below ever again: http://www.offshorealert.com/forums.aspx?g=posts&t=36000

Quote
The frauds committed by LFCity were quite well exposed long before the dissolution; the audit has confirmed them but has not found any embezzlement of grant/investor funds, and has accounted for expenses *exceeding* external investment.

The frauds/negligence committed are as follows:

1) Misrepresentation of organizational/control structure
2) Misrepresentation of grant income
3) Lack of proper accounting
4) Lack of separation of funds and accounts
5) False and misleading accounting practices
6) Fictitious transactions between related entities
7) Falsified annual report and fictitious dividend declaration
 Pump and dump of equity by principal
9) Running a deposit taking operation without disclosing business practices

Regarding point (9), point (4) was the leading downfall, as deposits were used to pay operational expenses, pro-longing an operation doomed by terminal incompetence, internal factionalism, and pie-in-the-sky Napolean Hill faith.

BTW, did any of the visitors to Camp BFL hear yodeling stemming from any of the offices?

What currency is used?

The Yodel Bank uses the DMT Rand (DRAN) as the official currency, which is a currency product offering of the Digital Monetary Trust. The DMT Rand is essentially a composite of the most widely traded currencies and gold. The DRAN's composition ensures its liquidity and nation-state diversification.

Read this paper for more information: The DMT Rand: A Currency for the Next Hundred Years. Use the bankbot 'value' command for daily updated exchange rate values. Since that information is not real time it should only be used as indication.

Yodel Bank was also run by J.Orlin Grabbe, just to give his DMT-ALTA scam a different flavor.

Look at the ugly design of YODEL BANK, the typical ugly design AND COLOR (this light violet), which you can find in all the following websites, showing the same mind behind all those scam ops:

- http://metropipe.net (tunnel snoops)
- http://mailvault.com (MAILFAULT)
- http://yodelbank.com (scam, same as faulted dmt)
- http://ica.citystateinc.com/ (scam op, trying to 'convince' people with pseudo judicial services)

I believe the last line is still being used today concerning other Bitcoin entities:

I've just learned that the reply below was deleted by a mod (I assume) originally posted on another thread. It's very possible that I erred in posting it there. I believe that I should not encounter any problems with posting it here.

John Mutrux, a photographer friend and partner of Chris Vleisides, going way back, is buds with Jody Drake, as in they feed their chickens together every morning.

I hate to say it (not really), but...

WE TOLD YOU SO, BFL!

The reply was in response to a letter received concern CE requirements in Germany of which John Mutrux is a representative of BFL, clearly shown on the address label.

8069  Other / Off-topic / Re: Why there is so much hatred towards the Winklewii? on: July 03, 2013, 06:10:16 PM
The problem with the Winklevii is that it's pretty damn obvious they got into Bitcoin primarily due to its speculative potential, not so much because they believe on it. We know for a fact they are driven by money.

If I recall correctly, at one time--not too long ago--us bitcoiners were seeking any notables to embrace Bitcoin regardless of their personal motives for doing such. Reason being is that a rising tide raises all ships.

Should we halt Worpress's embracing of Bitcoin simply because they may have done so for the potential profit oppose to only loving its fundamentals?

To paraphrase some movie line, "Profit is good!"
8070  Other / Off-topic / Re: Sonny Vleisides' finally sticking it up his investors' asses! on: July 03, 2013, 05:13:18 PM
It's illegal to melt Pennies, so their value is stuck at "face" period. End of story.

Didn't read through the entire thread so this may have been commented on, but this is 100% wrong.  It is illegal to alter a coin in an attempt to commit a fraud, like altering a nickel to try and pass it off as a quarter or cutting chunks out of 100 coins to make a new one.  Melting a coin down for it's raw materials is committing no fraud so the Title you are referring to does not apply.  People have been melting down silver quarters/dollars and copper pennies for as long as it's been profitable, no legal action has come of it.

That is correct! That is why it's profitable to pay double for a penny off eBay, melt the cents, and combine the copper with other scrap. The only concerns that the local scrapper has is if the copper is of the proper quality and that it wasn't stolen.

Too bad there's a massive paper trail leading to the the purchaser of tons of pennies, yet would have no inventory to show an investigator, let alone a sales slip if sold for profit but not disclosed on any tax forms.

Apologies for the aside. If further comment is warranted, please start a new thread quoting these two posts.

Is maintenance currently being done, for the entire site is formatting weirdly, then corrects itself when I reload.

I believe I'm logged onto the proper URL with the green https thingy.
I think this is how the bitcointalk phishing site loads.

What's strange is that I had no problems with any other URLs and I visit a many sites.

Coffee table size is what I have in mind. (not the size of a coffee table--you know what I mean--nor this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KuDPfTfw6w)

Non-Bitcoin related, nor related to Rassah's coffee table.

The main pages will be populated with minimal text accompanied with a color (mostly) photo taking up the majority of the rest of the page. Also, a QR-Code will be on each page acting as a link to an online page related to the content and image.

Quality gloss(?) paper for the pages and prefer a dust jacket.
