Young Chuck moved to Texas and bought a donkey from a farmer for $100.

The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day.

The next day the farmer drove up and said, 'Sorry Chuck, but I have some bad
news, the donkey died.'

Chuck replied, 'Well, then just give me my money back.'

The farmer said, 'Can't do that. I went and spent it already.'

Chuck said, 'OK, then, just bring me the dead donkey.'

The farmer asked, 'What ya gonna do with a dead donkey?

Chuck said, 'I'm going to raffle him off.'

The farmer said 'You can't raffle off a dead donkey!'

Chuck said, 'Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead.'

A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, 'What happened with
that dead donkey?'

Chuck said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars apiece and
made a profit of $898.00.'

The farmer said, 'Didn't anyone complain?'

Chuck said, 'Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back.'

Chuck now works for Morgan Stanley.

It will be like a bunch of monkeys trying to fuck a football

Currency wars are like bitch slap wars, trade wars is where the knives come out

Currency wars > trade wars > hot wars.

will be loath to support much more printing and the polls in Germany so little support for this “solution.”

Wanna bet?

Since when does the will of the German people matter?

Go Long Heidelberg Presses.

KBA,  Koenig and Bauer AG is the currency press king, not Heidelberg. KBA invented the perfector press (prints both sides of the sheet in one pass) and has big global grip on engraving presses for currency and security printing. They combine engraving and offset units in the same press for economy and security. The US FRN, printed on KBA presses, are only engraved on one side now.

Deep Hack Mode is stimulated by humor.

When does yes mean yes, or yes mean no, or maybe mean yes, or maybe mean no, or silence mean yes, or silence mean no:

(of course, I don't agree with rape, but come on the legal system can't make this determination when it is this ambiguous)

I hear that Wikileaks accepts payments in Bitcoin.

Maybe the Ecuadorian embassy should accept Bitcoin and buy an army of mercenaries to blow their way into London and to execute safe passage.

Or to finance his Australian senatorial bid:

Yeah that (senatorial bid) is a disruptive strategy!
