So you went to Cornell. Did you know there used to be a famous gun company in Ithaca? I grew up tramping the woods and fields with an old Ithaca double barrel shotgun, which I no longer have. Some day I'd like to track down a nice old antique Ithaca and buy it for a wall mount. P.S. Do you ever shoot real guns, or is it all just computer simulation? ;>)

When someone asks you what your profession is, you better answer: "I am a looter". Be honest with it. Acting like kkkramer of SI would jeapordize one's reputation and intrgrity of a true manhood. Wargames between looters must be played fair. Show your number of money bullets, square up among other opponents, be a brave medieval knight with no ambush, fight a conventional wargame, don't act like a civilian but in fact you are a looter and a fighter. Like a true hero without trojan horse invasion.

Very interesting that you graduated Cornell. Recently learned that Cornell teaches "financial engineering." Widely rumored to be one of the epicenters of the credit crunch. orie.cornell.edu From email: I went to see my dr. today and he told me that he was an engineering undergrad at Cornell and that he got the recent Cornell Engineering publication in which the topic was financial engineering and the persons interviewed for the article were the financial engineers from Cornell who were involved in crafting the complex math that was used to support the soundness arguments for the complex financial instruments that have now imploded.
