You know the economy is bad when...

Even p0rn companies are losing money!

[QUOTE]Adult entertainment company Playboy Enterprises forecast a sharp decline in advertising revenue in the current quarter after posting a third-quarter loss, and its shares fell nearly 23 percent.

Third-quarter revenue fell 15 percent to $70.4 million, partly because of the company's decision to sell its television studio assets and to outsource its e-commerce operations.

Analysts on average were expecting revenue of $75.5 million, according to Reuters Estimates.

Playboy [PLA 1.77 -0.63 (-26.25%) ] said its net loss was $5.2 million, or 15 cents per share, for the quarter ended Sept.30, after it had to take $6.3 million in previously announced restructuring charges and provisions for reserves. [/QUOTE]

I guess Americans don't really feel the need to jag off much since Tuesday, when the entire country got f---ed.

Going to the mall is never fun. I friggin' hate malls. The whole time I'm there getting dragged around with my wife, I'm daydreaming about acting out parts of Grand Theft Auto IV...

I'm actually quite content. I buried a half-dozen coffee cans stuffed with cash in the backyard last weekend, so I'm ready for the Obama-conomy...and I'm actually going to relish being able to play offense on this board after 8 years of playing defense. With such a galactically huge target to shoot for, I don't even have to spend much time at the gym honing my shot.

Yes, and like dems heard over and over during Bush's term about it being Clinton's fault.. Be prepared to hear Bush's fault a lot...

I'm happy though that you feel good about getting to attack the president now and am glad to see you've already started. Open minds are over rated anyway.. :yes:

See, that's where I'll differ from the wild-eyed maniacs on the left side of this forum. I won't attack Obama. I will attack his policies where I see fit, his mistakes as I see them, and his failures as they occur. Unlike most of the lefties on this board, whose hatred for Bush the person was never hidden from view, I have respect for Obama the man. On another note, I believe it is absolutely tremendous that America elected a black man for president. Absolutely mind-blowingly tremendous. I just wish it wasn't [I]this[/I] black man.

yeah..you never attacked Obama on anything other than policy..:rolleyes:




[QUOTE]Obama turns his back on the flag while refusing to recite the Pledge of Allegiance, refuses to wear the American Flag pin on his lapel, and his wife can't find it in herself to be proud to be a citizen of the most generous and free country in the world until her husband, Barack Hussein Obama, has a reasonable shot to lead the country. No wonder the Blame America First crowd is so charged up.[/QUOTE]

Unfortunately, I just don't see liberal policies making this a better nation...they haven't in the past and they've about ruined CA and that state's loaded with super wealthy folks!
