well yeah, except I’m being intentionally hyperbolic and overeactive. Hmmm.

Ross, just read the label on Dr. Bronner’s soap sometime and tell me you don’t see some similarities. Just go easy on the exclamation points, italics, all-bold all-caps sentences, and you’ll look a little less crazy.

If they could pull this off it would destroy Wall Street. Think of the terror of seeing Broad st. lined with dead brokers. And I know from experience it would totally decimate the oil traders at the Merc.

I’m just curious. Does poisoning cocaine count as a presidential assasination attempt?

Dan – Are you suggesting I like to put hemp in my Soap? I know I recently realized that in fact, I like Reggae a lot, but that’s beyond the pale.

But seriously, whatchoo mean fool?

Roddy – I bet he’s been stealing cable, and cribbing his neighbor’s wi-fi connection too. THE SCOUNDREL!

Seriously, they’re starting to make Osama sound less like the bastard he is, and more Like Cobra Commander.

I like your article, Ross, even if you do sometimes veer into Dr. Bronner’s Soap territory. But this time, you’re dead on. Speaking as someone who, ahem, has not been a stranger to the white dragon, what’s even more ridiculous about this scenario is that most coke dealers at various tiers of the market do sample their own supplies. They have to, to make sure it’s quasi-pure and not just baking soda. There’s no way that some drug lord in Columbia could sell pounds and pounds of drugs to some crime boss in the States without said crime boss realizing he was being duped (unless of course Osama came to this country too and made separate agreements with all our major dealers). Plus most dealers near the street-level actually just enjoy snorting a line or two, which is one of the percs of being a dealer. So how the fuck is poisoned coke supposed to make it all the way to street level and kill our sons and daughters, without killing off the dealer on the street or his bosses first?

Wait, Are you critiquing my post, or the article I posted about? not trying to provoke, I’m honestly unclear as to your point.

Anyway, operative phrase in this article? “bin Laden personally met…” hence my sarcastic derision.
