He just copied and pasted the URL, and for some reason it inserts spaces when you do that.  It's happened to me too.  just copy the text, past it in your address bar, and delete the spaces before you hit enter.

Or just click this link.

We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.

What the assholes are trying to do is put enough sugar on a pile of shit to make you eat it while they fuck us with a rather large prickly telephone pole. I heard Little Tim spewing this bullshit the other day, it's nonsense.

Honestly, the fed should offer to by the assets for 30 cents on the dollar, just like everyone else in the market. The CDS market was unregulated and off the books, therefore illegal. No money should be given out for those.

Next we need to split up all the big banks, selling the portions to smaller local banks. I would start with Goldman and the Federal reserve along with anyone else that was involved in lobbying us into bankruptcy. The last step would be to seize the assets of all the prime players and throw a few in jail for sabotage and crimes against the country. Hopefully ending in few very public executions that will once and for all put an end to this runaway greed and corruption. Greenspan, followed by Paulson, Graham, Laugher, Kudlow, Berrnie Marcus and whoever else they can tie to this supply side disaster.

Anything short of this will lead us to ruin. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you.
