Yup, "Destined for War". A de Tocqueville-esque narrative of the 'inevitable' conflict between China and the US. During my time in school (2008, right at the end of Bush's term), that comparison was passe, if not de rigeur; but I'm certainly intrigued by what the author of my IR bible has to say about this. He dissected the last clash of giants reasonably accurately with partial information, let's see how predictive he is (for my part, I prefer Waltz for predictions, Allison for explanations...a theme that carries over to my parsimonious modeling of the market). I'm excited for this one (though, I hope it's less dense; beer, beach distractions, and a dense technical tome are not consultative to concentration when taken together). I was a math wiz myself...finished calc 3 in high school. I'll never forget the day in class I realized of I ever need to know this stuff, I'll have to relearn it myself anyway. By then I had had already doomed myself to an engineering school. Oddly, stats I never liked in school, but I rub elbows with actuaries today for work. ...what was this thread about???
I thought my profile was ultra-high tech-ET secure. I think I'm older though. To answer your question....Women are like stocks. You have your daytrades, your swing-trades.... and your 401K's. If you cash out those 401K's early and pay a substantial penalty, it free's up cash for the other two. Have fun at the beach.
So then, where were you in 2009, wank?!? What??? Not the type of hashing you were a'thinkin' of?? Well then!! http://www.angelfire.com/mi/birdman/hareline.html Birdman'll get you squared away! On-on!
Running and drinking beer? Only if someone is chasing me with a knife (if they have a gun, I'd probably drop the beer). I do Denver cruisers sometimes (bikes and beer) (also bikes and hash).
