64? Some genius.
Plus, there is no way that guy is not the killer.
based on article's description of bobby's political views and social skills, the label of idiot savant seems more appropriate than genius. i had no idea the guy was so wack.
To the Clinton fans: You may be all for the political-royalty establishment candidate and all, but you have to admit that this Hill-Bill one-two punch routine basically double-teams on Obama. Would Hillary be where she is in this campaign if she didn't have Bill's star power on her side?
Yet Obama continues to hold his own, without all of Hillary's benefits. What's that tell you...?
Is there a reason why we can't keep crazy people supervised once we know they are crazy? Does it work to set them loose again and again hoping they will get better?
When they say "tax rebates," aren't they really saying that they're going to borrow zillions more from the Chinese so that we can in turn buy more Chinese products?
They should just give us all a 100% tax cut and end this sick charade.
The only reason I'm sad about Bobby Fischer dying is that we won't get to hear about any more of his insane shenanigans.
elenchos: Make sure you differentiate between "crazy" and "violent." Mentally ill people are rarely violent. People with violent histories and meth addictions, like this guy, are a different story.
Lot of gloomy stuff in the News this morning.
Ok, “Bush stimulus plan?” Umm, eewwww.
An even better idea would be government issued, gold-plated shopping carts. That way we’ll all have somethin’ fancy to push down the street on the way to our flophouses in Bushville.
@11 If we're lucky they'll toss in some imported government cheese!
Throw in some circuses and you've got a deal there, Mr. Prez.
(Just to be clear, I didn't mean liberal and stinky Euro cheese. I mean good, cheap, lead-based Chinese cheese.)
Free money? Now I can pay back that payday loan and stop paying that $170.00 a month interest on $600.00 to Moneytree.
personally, i prefer the GHB-based chinese cheese.
Dr. Phill is annoying. He just wags his finger at people and pretends to be a mental health expert. Ms. Spears is less annoying than McGraw.
that "dr" phil story makes me hurt.
hasn't bobby fisher been 64 for the last 30 years?
i guess chess nerds just SEEM old, despite their actual age.
This Morning's News Recap forgot this:
124.7 Million - Final Cost to City of Seattle Monorail Authority
@6: If it's like the last time they gave a "rebate," it's really just an advance on your income tax refund. Last time a lot of people were ticked off in April when they realized they were going to have to pay it back.
According to the Seattle Times, the police 'bust 14 year old prostitutes' all the time. Don't they mean 'rescue'? Oh no, they don't.
