Paul,
This is terrific news. Thanks for posting it.
Listen up geeks, on the news tonight they reported that Wall Street
investment bankers, and there are 1500 of them, are expecting bonuses of over one million dollars this year. They showed a happy Manhattan salesman of Rolls Royces, he said the investment bankers are stopping in and are eyeing the big 'Rollers'.
The reason I (and I suspect others) use the term 'geeks' is because the executive level distainfully calls us 'techies, as in "Those techies have to be kept in their place or they'll get uppity." and "Just listen to that techie-talk." By calling ourselves geeks, we take the initiative from them.
As for the Government, federal, state, and local... who knows... Rates are going up. Between Paul's news above... it was so good, I couldn't bring myself to clip any of it... and today's USAToday and the article in the Washington Post on the Fed's getting slammed by Rep. Horn, I am overjoyed.
Denial-heads, come here so I can swat your nose with a rolled up USAToday! Bad denial-head, naugh-ty!
