[hideyoursheep]

LiveNation and TicketMaster have to "build a better mousetrap"?

Fuck

That.





I hope they crumble.

Greedy fucks.

'If our economic stimulus plan works

I had to stop reading right there...

[ELVIS]

If my math is correct, if you have a trillion dollars ($1,000,000,000,000) that comes out to $50,000 a year for 20,000,000 years, or 20,000,000 people could each have $50,000 for one year or 30,000,000 people could each have $33,333 for a year...

Amazing!

So my point is that "If our economic stimulus plan works" doesn't sit too well in my mind or my gut or my heart...

And how much has Iraq cost So far... Somewhere north of THREE TRILLION DOLLARS ??

Incredible...and I could go on and on, as most of my friends on this board could as well...

As much as I like to push some of your buttons, call names and poke fun, most of you are smarter and way more informed than just about anyone I know or hang out with in real life...

Usually whenever I bring some of this type of information up in a conversation (usually after I hear some Obama praise) I either get a deer in headlights stare, disbelief, or the smart-asses call complete bullshit even if I can produce facts...

Not many average working class people have a clue about whats just around the corner regarding the economy and I believe that's what the government is banking and betting on...

Scary stuff...

I hate it when ELVIS makes posts like this....

it makes me like him.

[ELVIS]

LMAO!

Elvis is making too much sense this week. I think he's been replaced by an "evil twin" from an alternate universe.

Think "South Park", not "Star Trek", where the "evil" Cartman was actually the "good guy".

[LoungeMachine]

I'm hoping it's just a phase he's going through since they adjusted his meds.

But I like this version of him, and that pisses me the fuck off

[ELVIS]

Ok...I want to make you guys happy...

Send me a PM of what you would like me to say and I will cut, paste and sign it...

Y'all might not care about this, but you should've seen the media blitz here a few days ago...

Madonna's ticket sales were a complete fiasco.

Some schmuck got the brilliant idea of involving the local 7-11's with "ticket machines".
With 80,000 tickets up for grabs (with classifications)...
The ticket machines jammed everywhere, the lines were busy, the internet dead. And yet, somehow all the tickets disappeared before noon only to re-appear on eBay and such for a minimum of 285 euros, and a max of... over 1000 euros.

Retail price being 99/119€.

(Unfortunately, I can't find any links to stories about this in American...)

Live Nation has apparently spread out to Europe, too.

[ELVIS]

I'm sorry you couldn't get your Madonna ticket...

[FORD]

They have 7-11 in Finland? Who knew??

Can you get vodka Slurpees there?

[Coyote]

I'm sorry you couldn't get your Madonna ticket...

I'd tell you to fuck off, but since you apparently don't have all your pistons firing, I'll just say "piss off, elvis"...

Allow me to specify a bit.

"sort-of-7-11's"

No Slurpees, but there's porn mags in plain view...

Wait 'till he blows a gasket!

Nah, I'll wait 'til his fuel pump's busted...
