PEOPLE TROW EGG AT ME ALL THE TIME SO I RIDE FASTER I CARE ABOT MY WORK NOT EGG HE CARE NOT ME HE WANT TO CRY LIKE WOMAN HE IS DAM ASS NO HAIR HA HA HA DAM ASS
I have ten doz eggs and I'm waiting for MacCain to come to the hilltown. I have a potato gun and a case of hair spray.
Knock on door; mr gym may we have a word with you ? says the guy in the suit and dark glasses.
Gymyg, you just reminded me of a spud gun failure my friend had that would fit well in the ball to the groin video, damn things cap in back blew back and nailed him square in the jewels...had a bunch of us on the ground laughing our fao!
Let me see....this appears to have been a foreign student attending a US school at which a successful American business man visited to share his experience with the students, presumably to aid them in their own search for success.
OK....maybe I have the wrong view...but....how the hell does a foreign visitor justify his attack on spokesmen for the very system he has travelled so far to learn.
This sucks.
I am tiring of those who use our openness for the purpose of injuring us. And I am tiring of those who support that sort of corrosion on grounds of individual rights (which seem to have more authority than majority rights of late).
It's late....the Red Sox won again. I'm happy for the moment.
From I gathered, this fellows anger was directed at something to do with corporate greed.....and didn't appear to be based on any kind of slant towards nationality. If you'll notice after this guy was escorted out, the rest of the crowd seemed pretty friendly towards the man, even laughing along with him.
Where were they? Hungary, right?
Think it would have been possible for this gentleman to have made this expedition as recently as, say, oh, twenty years ago? Things have changed a lot (and still are).
Personally, I think you do yourself a disservice by saying "us", i.e., lumping yourself in with a high-ranking corporate executive from Microsoft. I prefer to think of YOU as better than this fellow, just based on that alone.
Again...I don't think this was motivated by any sort of "anti-Americanism".....just "anti-greed".
Shit.....l just reviewed the video again and saw the presentation was not in the US", but Budapest.
So.....much of my observation above is rendered moot. Still, I harbor similar thoughts regarding the mixed sentiments the US business leaders face. Damned for succeeding, damned if not.
the moment you hear the term "U.S. Business Leader" (or even Canadian, if you prefer).....do you automatically think of the terms 'honest', or ' hard-working' or 'ethical' or 'fair'? You think they became "business leaders" by harbouring ANY of those traits as a guiding principle? Granted, there may be SOME who have......but with the way todays corporations conduct themselves in the pursuit of not just 'profit' (which is fair game, in a capitalist society) but a single-minded lust for 'HUGEand EXCESS profit', I'm pretty certain that they fall into the minority, and are the exception-to-the-rule.
When it comes to greed and avarice....they know NO national or cultural boundaries.
These gentlemen you see here, typify the general perception most folks have, re: corporate execs. Their answers border between being ludicrous.....and arrogant.....and even a sort of disconnect from 'reality'.
And while they're in the boat THEY'RE in.....you and me are gonna keep shelling out $4 bucks a gallon.
"Criticism of massive payouts for chief executives is no longer only for union activists and investors. The phenomenon now has professors of ethics asking what it says about modern human behavior and politicians looking to curb excesses.
Many say the trend is only growing more extreme. While business leaders have always done well %u2014 the 19th century robber barons like John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie amassed huge fortunes %u2014 those tycoons actually owned big parts of their companies. They also ultimately gave much of their wealth away.
Today, soaring executive pay "offends most people's sense of fairness," said Archie Carroll, a recently retired business ethics professor at the University of Georgia.
It "symbolizes more than anything else how out of touch corporate America, particularly CEOs and boards of directors,, is with the rest of American society," he said.
The abrupt departure of Home Depot Inc. chief Robert Nardelli this week, with a $210 million exit package in hand, shows how skewed CEO pay can be, ethics experts say.
Nardelli's exit package, which includes $20 million cash severance as well as a pension, deferred stock awards and stock options, equals the annual incomes of about 10,000 retail stock clerks making an average $21,000 a year."
Sorry, Chaz; If I (or anyone else) has a somewhat 'cynical' or 'negative' view of corporations or their CEO's/executives.....well, they can thank themselves for that. Until such time as they clean up their act, and at least reign in their appetites to a manageable realm.....then any sort of sympathy towards them is wasted.
This is all strictly MY OWN perception, of course.
"how out of touch corporate America, particularly CEOs and boards of directors,, is with the rest of American society" which puts them in the same league with politicians...
The same kind of discussion is stirring up in Germany. CEOs laying off thousands of people and getting a few millions as bonus on top of their regular few million income. I wonder how they can even afford to buy bread?
I visit Budapest fairly regularly. The people are quite strange - somewhat repressed still after years of communist rule, and can appear unfriendly. The language is impenetrable, which doesn't help visiting foreigners, and the city itself has a delicious threatening edge in the Graham Greene cold war style.
I do have to say that this speaker isn't a man I'd trust under fire or any sort of pressure. I have no idea who he is, but I can think of quite a few people in the public eye who would have dealt with the situation better.
Congratulations to anyone who managed to translate what the protester was saying. I believe he may be suffering from some sort of mental illness, not because of his actions, but his general demeanour. I'd suggest he may also have been on some sort of medication.
no. not hard boiled they clearly left a messy stain on the whiteboard. I was kinda waiting for baldy to do that little dance he does to while dodging the googies.
which came first the student or the egg.
As for Chaz, whom I respect deeply, the answer, which came 1st the chicken or the egg, it's the egg, it may not have been layed by a chicken but did contain one.
LOL damn I'm loopy! Can't see straight, I'm limping, can't hear a damn thing, my eyes sting, I'm soaked the the bone and hungry for an egg? I thinks it's time for a cold one!
Oh yeah, been power-washing a deck....a VERY BIG deck all frickin day.........
