They were arraigned on Thursday and sprung from fetid jail cells after their parents came to their rescue and posted 10 percent of their combined $235,000 bail.
Send lawyers, guns and money.
Dad, get me out of this!

This is also true with statewide nonprofits. Portland/Eugene dollars provide the vast majority of support for programs outside the metro areas, yet folks bitch about sending their money to "weird" Portland.

That was another classic WestWing moment: "So you think the money should stay in the states and with individuals, yet your state gets more money than it spends. Can we have our money back?"

Glad to see that cutting the sales employee's salaries back to minimum wage worked so well for them.
Her dad is a plastic surgeon in Winston-salem nc. Might have a little money

We don't need wheelbarrows full of currency.
We have debit cards.
Now I'm picturing a ragged yuppy walking to the grocery store with a wheelbarrow overflowing with credit and debit cards.

"CompUSA to close all of its 103 stores:"
Tis a shame. We don't have many options here. Compusa was not the best but was okay. Now we have Best Buy, which I will not step into.
Circuit City and Rad Shack are the only other options then we head to the local mom and pops.
Law-enforcement sources said yesterday that the FBI, the U.S. Attorney's Office and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service have all launched separate investigations
As long as the RIAA stays off their ass.

They choose *every word* with *great care* and after *long and deliberate consideration* - not a word employed that does not carry *precise meaning* - and thus they have no need of editors.

Well, the Brits managed somehow to survive the Pound ceasing to be the universal currency, just as the French managed to survive English becomeing the lingua franca.
I think this comment further down indirecty adresses why it will not be a soft landing as the British and French had when they lost as the "safe harbor" currency:
what a nice little mix of disasters. the mortgage crisis, home prices falling, oil rising, food rising, phenomenal war-induced debt, dollars coming home. I will probably be living under a bridge by this time next year.
Our lifestyles, and way of life, have largely been built on the strength of the dollar.

Now, admittedly, these two are more like Neil Bush. Who was a bankrobber and one of Ma Bush's boys even though he never toted a tommygun in his worthless life.

Crappy weather here in Chicagoland -- about 6" of snow on the ground, and they're predicting sleet & freezing rain (i.e., gutter slushies) on top of it. A good day to stay in with the cats.

I don't think she started out a grifter, but the end suggests she becomes one.
I think he probably was a grifter, and there is the implication before she gets together with the farmer that she has experienced an unsavory past, which perhaps she is left to return to at the end.
It is a wonderful movie.

Okay, all -- getting ready to head into Gomorrah on the Hudson (a friend of mine's mom is dying, so I doubt there will be much of the traditional elitist chardonnay quaffing).

These motherfuckers actually do have a long term plan:
To turn the United States into a third world country.
Where they can rule as feudal lords.
That's what it is all about.

There's no surer way to put a lie to one's support for "law and order" than to have your kid arrested. They may be dicks, and they may be guilty, but they're your kids you'll do just about anything to keep them out of jail. I call bullshit on anybody who says different unless they've been there and actually done it.
