birdog1960 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 wow, sayres law explains a lot...like what stories are featured on drudge and what important stories are not. seems like a reasonable theory. but i beg to differ on the importance of nobel prizes as a recent game of the uk version of trivial pursuits taught me that adolph hitler was once nominated for the peace prize,in 1938, i believe. quickly rescinded but a definite black mark for the institution. they can and do sometimes get it wrong. but not in krugman's case it appears. tasker will never have to avoid the controversy involved in such nominations/awards. good for everyone.
dayman Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Wikipedia usually has a policy that mandates when high profile editors edit conflicting ideas it comes up showing that there is disagreement about the issue and then tells both sides...so this is interesting in the sense that a common sense policy failed to work
TakeYouToTasker Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Tasker is absent because Tasker is working, not because TPS post's poorly written articles.
dayman Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Tasker is absent because Tasker is working, not because TPS post's poorly written articles. We all work...yet we find the time to bloviate...no excuses...get back here and rant
TakeYouToTasker Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 We all work...yet we find the time to bloviate...no excuses...get back here and rant You're all in my crosshairs, I promise. Too much travel, too much time with my staff. I barely recognize my family. It gets like this, and I make massive sacrifices to do what I do.
3rdnlng Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Meatboy Googled "massive" and "staff" and somehow found his way to a PPP thread. I wonder what would have happened if he had included "bloviate" in his Google?
Meathead Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 lmao youre a dick but i gotta admit youre funny
TakeYouToTasker Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 oh bloviate me Find a way to work with your mind, and get off the dole.
3rdnlng Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 lmao youre a dick but i gotta admit youre funny Use punctuation, it makes you look smarter than you are.
