NOONAN? Not for most of the dweebs here. The moral tone would be all wrong.

But this is pretty cool writings:

216.46.231.211

Just imagine your neighbor works at Lucent or Enron ? You just lost $10,000, $20,000, maybe $100000 thanks to these sucko companies.

So when do you start taking it out on these scumbags anyway ?

Oh i meant your "friends ?"

Whoops, I forgot. They didn't have anything to do with the stock dropping. They just worked there. Low level. Mid Level. They weren't the scum bucket CEO's.

Nobut your pissed anyway. WHY ? Because they were the recipient of those megastock options and they socked money away in the bank, and put on those great additions, bought Lexus's alll the while you toiled away in your average boring private company where stock options didn't exist.

They road the boom up, got out, and you were the sucker left holding the bag.

Sh&T has a real funny way of running down hill. Right now we are living vicariously through the politicians subpoenaing away at the loser CEO's, CFO's anybody else they can get their stinking hands on for show. Why ? Because it they are getting nasty notes from their constituents. And its votin time around the corner.

So you start getting enough of these wipe outs like Worldbomb, Encon,Global Crossme, Adelfiction,Andersin, and the corresponding blowouts in Lewdscent,Crisco,and Qwestionmark, that people at the mid-levels and low levels start feeling the heat from some average "joe" in the neighborhood. Maybe they don't get an invite to the local "block party." Maybe it starts out fairly innocuous, but then it starts turning to sabotage, revenge, and it escalates to whoknowswhere.

I'm surprised we haven't seen more of this type of thing in the news. You see former or ex-employees taking it out on their employers.

Ain't seen this stuff yet at the lower levels.

Guilt by association. Do you think former Enron people have an easy time getting a good job ? Maybe, maybe not. I see this guy everytime trying to distance himself from Enron and he only worked there 9 months. People tease him about "hey can you tell us how to create those fake companies?" Or how do we cook this or that book ?

America at its finest. 9/11 was a horrible evil. But with or without it our own ethics and greed and filth in business seems to be catching up with us.

Jeremy Siegal is even starting to complain. It "ain't an accounting problem, its an ethics problem." he says.

Hes right. And you know what ? Its at every stinking level of every corporation in America. The problem is people just look the other way. Why cause their cheating too ! Everyone cheats. Evyone lies, steals takes credit for others work, cut corners, and on and on.

So why are we so shocked ? It just confirms everything we all knew. People all the way up the stinking ladder cheat ! You thought the higher you got the more honest you had to be. More straight laced. More honest. More thorough. Bull crap !

Its finally being revealed the way it should have been revealed years ago.

Honesty and Ethics don't work in corporate america. You a whistleblower? Then you're the scum. You're the victim.

Shame on the Welch's, the Lay's, the Ebbers, and on and on. Shame on those guys who took untold millions from comanies in pay and layed off millions. And now they take down the stocks, taking more millions from shareholders. People are going to get really pissed some day.

The other shoe has yet to drop. But it will.
