I think I've gotten five texts and emails from Biden today. Doesn't he have a country to run?Quote:

I've had the same # for 20 years and haven't lived in that state for at least half that. 90% of the spam I get is mistargeted.Quote:

I got exactly one text for a state office. I replied “fuck off” and never heard back.
Guys, why are you comparing apples to donuts here? As Danno said, in my profession CE is a joke for someone who has been doing it for 30+ years. I have taken the EXACT SAME COURSE since 2011 to fulfill my annual CE requirements. Maybe it is just me, but after the first few times I got it. I am not learning anything new from CE, it is not refreshing any skill set I lost, it is just a box that needs to be ticked off per Frank Dodd. Just take my word for it. Jeezuz.Quote:

Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act came out in 2010, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole legislation has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the regs a big boost. They've been compared to Paul Volcker, but I think Barney has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

Made all the more clear and crisp by contrast with the muddled, lobbyist driven musings of Dick Durbin.

I've been a big Glass-Steagall fan ever since the release of their 1933 album, Banks be Runnin' Too Much. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Durbin where lobbyists' presence became more apparent. I think Gramm-Leach-Bliley was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three laws.Quote:

Edit: My favorite, though…. My guilty pleasure…. Is the ever-controversial EFTA, or American Arts Gold Medallion Act, or Regulation E as it’s colloquially known. At once bold and brash and subtle and pernicious. Every time I cross it I’m left with some fresh new take that recasts everything I thought I knew.
None of that is to take anything away from some of the strong, but more obscure, independent numbers out there, like the Gowen Letter. Chopra and his cronies have tried to jump on that bandwagon but their works all reek like mass market autotune.

Goddammit, people - if you really have NO idea how to drive a car, don't get in and drive a fuckin' car. :mad:
Today it was a lady that wanted to turn left... not from one of the double left turn lanes, but from the through lane beside the turn lanes. And you suppose she figured it out and went straight and sorted it out at the next place to turn?
:fuckyou:

I bailed out of work a little early to hit the hill on the way home (it’s literally on the way home, which mitigates my annoyance enough to put up with the BS).
So it’s a long-ass line at the end of the day… the kicker, they require birth certificates and marriage certificates. Initially they wanted all of that before they’d sell the pass, which, I didn’t have. I pressed and they agreed to let us provide proof when we actually picked up the passes. When I told them I don’t actually have birth certificates handy at home either (my ex wife has those) they said a copy of my tax returns would be fine. I didn’t even ask about the lack of a marriage certificate with my partner because… we aren’t married. Maybe they’ll settle for a copy of our mortgage???
Is this at all normal?
Jfc, that’s insane Mustonen. None of that is normal. Not even sure legally they can ask for all of that.

I’m confident the answer is noQuote:
