Pay no attention to those 15.1 million unemployed people—Wall Street instead is more focused on the man behind the Fed curtain and what he'll be doing to fire up the equity markets.
The goons at the helm of the MSM will do anything to keep the party going. Maybe the only rational thing Walker ever said was, "Walled Street got drunk." Bernanke never took away the Hunch Punch. The belligerent farce continues....
There is (or maybe was) a Korean restaurant in Honolulu called "Fook Yuen Seafood". I always wanted to open up a competing restaurant across the street called "Fook Yuen Two".
Before we moved down here, my wife's Ob/Gyn was named Dr. Harry Beaver. When she first told me that I then explained to her (she was born in Peru) what the slang terms were. I could hardly believe that an MD would choose that name.
We should enjoy our humor while we can. According to the Washington Times, the FCC is intending to adopt rules to: "preserve the freedom and openness of the Internet." Unfortunately, I am not kidding.
I have a picture of a street sign in St. Andrews Scotland that reads "Butts Wynd"...I always thought that was the funniest street sign in the world until I saw this...you win.
Bill Bryson was thrilled when he heard there was a town in England called Nookie. He wanted to visit so he could send postcards to his friends. Imagine his disappointment when he found out it was spelled New Quay.
I took a mind-numbingly boring temp job once for some insurance company while I was in college. I had a mile long print-out of people to call with student loans and I had to offer them some kind of deal. Next up: Ho, Ima
Ima wasn't home (in bed somewhere?) but I felt like telling the guy on the phone that, you know... if you're gplanning on living in America full time, and your last name's 'Ho'.....
Of course Ima's probably about to take down an obscene bonus at some co-located, HFT outfit right now.
He's right at home there. I hear in ZH comments that Wall Street is full of Hos. It's like the Ho family bought the franchise and hired all their relatives. The only one there I know for a fact ain't a Ho is Blankfein and I don't know why they kept him around, he's no better than a $2 wh -- Oh.
On an entirely different note, I just left the MSM home page. There's a picture of Obama and Petraeus shaking hands. The man looks disturbingly like the dimwitted soldier in the movie "Stripes".
At the national Ebonics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebonics) convention all attendees were offered T-shirts with their home state printed on the back
The T-shirts were a big hit but nobody from Idaho wanted one
Looks like the movie is right after all. I bought some of those 1 week SPY call options that expired today. Those options must be what it's like to do crack.
Several years ago in the foothills of Los Angeles there was an oriental restaurant named "The Poo-Ping Palace". When we drove past I said that can't actually be a place to eat? My brother just said "you gotta be shitn me" ...
I recently saw a picture of a bookstore in a Chinatown somewhere: Wong Fook Hing Bookstore. No wonder their customers can't find what they're looking for.
...which reminds me ....years ago I am sitting in a great little Vietnamese restaurant on Polk Street with a hot little country girl from Sacto when she sez "What a cute name for a bar"...pointing across the street at The White Swallow....and all I could think was...honey hold that thought for later...
the guy who was the pilot of the chinese plane that crashed into the USA plane a few years back causing them to emergncy land his name was Wong Way... he hit the plne because he was going the wong way.
Wasn't sure where we would cover Greenspan's appearance on CNBC this morning but this seems like the right place:
CNBC 2010/12/03 Alan Greenspan - (para) "If we did not have the debt problem, and the increasingly concerning European debt problem. The premium in equities is at an all time high"
Zerohedge 2010/12/03 wisefool (non PhD in Economics) - "If we hadn't already borrowed all we possibly could against anything that floats,flies, or just sits there like a McMansion, people could buy stock in companies that will make money in the future with signifigantly higher returns than new debt (bonds)"
These are all examples of "Humor" in the context of being the Dominant Ruling Culture, whereas THAT is somewhat, totally presumptously preposterous .....1945 is long long long gone....
THIS HUMOR HERE, IN THIS THREAD, shows an 'attitude', an obsolete attitude..... near EVERY posting HERE shows total lack of "situational awareness", indeed a kind of Altzheimers disease...a bunch of VFW old timers laughing at each others very very old jokes and so called humor...Its not a matter of political correctness HERE, its a matter of total incomprehension regards the current Political/Economic reality...
....remembrances 'Being/existing' Japanese occupation forces, oh yes...still, today..Tokyo and surrounds...USA fleet headquarters still, since 1945 physically occupying the old pre 1945 physical buildings, location of the Japanese Far East Coprosperity Sea Control fleet...with the USA Naval Officers club...just to remind the japanese who 'won' and really is STILL in charge,oremembrances of the Oh so humble in-keepers, for instance the Otani and New Otani Hotels - usa GI military discounts?... in Tokyo during the Korean War...Japan being the staging platform...1953 movie Bridge over Toko-Ryi...USA occasionally STILL requests 'apologies' from whomever is prime minister for Japanese lapses of strictly provincial american politically correct statements...
of ruling Okinawa for 30+ years AFTER 1945 VJ day, still using the USA dollars, with Ft BucknerKadena...and a few smaller bases with something like 5000+ americans and families..
of Taiwan CCK airbase and lots more...the 1960's 1970's .....of Guam, which even today, Anderson AFB and the B52's that finished off Hanoi near the end..another 'aircraft carrier-Island' ....of Philippines, and our very own Marcos and Elmeda, and the others USA supported that followwed...
Of the Mystery of Red China and Mao...The Kremlin...Evil Empire...a time when USA and/or USSR were all that really counted....every war THEN was not 'about' the actual countries where fought (Vietnam) as proxy-wars against China/Russia.......and the DOMINO EFFECT...must save the world from communism, from un-freedom, from ..... any excuse/reason
...when some 100,000 (including USA forces families/children) were occupation forces, since at least 1945 and 40 years thereafter......i mean not just the Far East, but FRANCE til 1966, England even today, Germany thru unification, Italy still, and a whole lot more...Ah Yes, "the Greatest Generation...1940-1945.."
Of course NOW is 2010, December....need you be reminded once again of the Chinese submarine, that recently surfaced RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF USA CARRIER TASK FLEET READINESS EXERCISES...undetected...
"Get your heads out of your ass" remember THAT one...?
Ah, yes! Political/social correctness. Must search my 80 year old mother before she boards a plane because that is the only way to prove how "fair" and "unbiased" we are. I seriously doubt ANY violent crime has been commited by ANY 80 year old woman of ANY race, creed, or color in the last 100 years. After they searched my mother before boarding that plane, I knew this country was doomed. Any country run by people that STUPID can't possibly survive.
Hey Achmed, is that an AK-47 in your pants, or are you just glad to see me? Hey, you! Grandma! Up against the wall!
By the way, did you notice that they made fun of American and other names also?
This is one of the very few places that the First Amendment still survives, and it is often brutal, but censorship/political correctness always leads to protecting the powers that be instead of protecting "innocent" eyes and ears.
Ironically that is what Bernanke says about the dollar.

There is (or maybe was) a Korean restaurant in Honolulu called "Fook Yuen Seafood". I always wanted to open up a competing restaurant across the street called "Fook Yuen Two".
I bet they served up an awesome pupu platter too!
Personally, I was always fond of driving by the office of Dr. Au down in Captain Cook on the Big Island.
Also like
http://www.phuket.com/
Dr. Au? Was he a dentist? That's almost as good as my Urologist...Dr. Leak...seriously, I'm not making this up.
Are you still in the islands?
Yes, the good doctor Au is/was a dentist, which makes his name doubly punny --- Dr. "Ow!" ---- "Au" --- gold fillings ....
Not on the Big Island now, but will be visiting again soon.
Please go to Hilo and have a Loco Moco for me at Cafe 100.
Aloooooooooooooooha!
It's already on my list!
And Ming's Restaurant in Pahoa --- best Thai food outside of Thailand!
Can't forget about the pork chops and butterfish at the Manago Hotel either --- homey but tasty.
Aloha nui loa!
Before we moved down here, my wife's Ob/Gyn was named Dr. Harry Beaver. When she first told me that I then explained to her (she was born in Peru) what the slang terms were. I could hardly believe that an MD would choose that name.
Honestly, this is true!
...and truthfully, my vascetomy was performed by Dr. Dunn...his specialty...
There's a restaurant in Brookline, MA called Fugakyu.

There was, in the early 90's, a Chinese restaurant in Bamberg Germany called Hung Fuk. Served the worst pork and rice ever.
Ah so, you are Fook Hed?
Hahahahaa, that guy should join Benron's crew asap.
He and B-Sack can hang like pimps.
Surely has ZH has better things to do than ridiculing foreigners for their funny names. No? Oh well, give a minute to rest my aching sides.
I'm suspicious. Last week it was Chinese companies with tickers like "OINK"
I think they're just yanking our chains. Seriously.
Points for style, though.
Ask any Chinese guy about someone named "Pete" (fart)
Thank you for the much needed balance on this important issue.

I have a picture of a street sign in St. Andrews Scotland that reads "Butts Wynd"...I always thought that was the funniest street sign in the world until I saw this...you win.
You need to check out ilovebacon.com. It's the ultimate in funny signs.
It's pronounced "wined". Hey, I was disappointed too when someone told me.
Bill Bryson was thrilled when he heard there was a town in England called Nookie. He wanted to visit so he could send postcards to his friends. Imagine his disappointment when he found out it was spelled New Quay.
What? That blows...like the Butt's Wynd.

He's long Dong and Long Dong Silver, too.
Did someone call for me?
Imagine the power US corporations (and the banking sector) would have if they could set up Chaebol like structures as they do in Korea.
I wonder if some Koreans are sitting around making fun of American names right now?

This seems like pretty childish humor to me.
It is.
You're so defensive. :P
once a week as required by law. A good laugh to quell the tears.
It is.....It's Friday and it's funny.
Get a grip.
It is, at least, a rather piquant contrast to the much darker "adult" humor continually emanating from the halls of Congress, Wall Street and the Fed.

And you can get a great meal at Phuket Thai Restaurant in SF in the Lower Haight. Which is also a name-freak cuz they ain't haterz in the Haight.
Damn. It's almost worth driving up there just so you can shock your friends saying "I had Phuket Thai food over the weekend".
Pronounced Poo Ket, a little heavy on the P. Transliterations can be confusing.
