  1. Let me take this opportunity to give John at Cygnus-X1.net some recognition, not only for his archiving of Neil's articles, but for his entire site, an invaluable resource to the Rush community. John was handing out postcards advertising Cygnus-X.net at the first Rush gig I ever went to, the gig at which I became a fan, and I have been visiting it regularly ever since. Many thanks and much appreciation to John for all his hard work over the years! Thank you, sir. Always nice to hear favorable comments about the work I put into my website. Glad you're enjoying it. Love your website. Found it on my own and I was amazed at how well put together it was. I don't do it often but I've looked at the archived versions of your website and it was pretty neat to see how it evolved. Ditto. Bravo. Well done. Way to go. And most importantly, thanks!
  2. Yes - very much explains what happened holistically. Then Too Big To Fail shows you what was going on at the Government end and the huge bank end. Margin call then goes into a deep dive of how this unfolded at one single investment firm. There are two MUST see scenes with Jeremy Irons. If you dont mind a spoiler watch below: 3am somewhere near Wall St.: The Harsh Reality:
  3. Folks, As Ive just watched one of them again, let me, if you dont already know, suggest 3 films that encapsulate the entire mess wonderfully and nearly completely. The Big Short Too Big To Fail Margin Call My suggestion is to watch them in that order. They are all great films and very explanatory to those of us not well versed in finance and economics.
  4. It is a great honour to have so many members of the Government dead in our forum. Good evening. Tonight on 'Is There' we examine the question, 'Is there a life after death?' :bump: Yes... well, I mean to a certain extent yes. I'm not by nature a suspicious person - far from it - though in fact I have something of a reputation as an after-dinner speaker, if you take my meaning. Hmm, could be bad breath, Bob. :tsk: Semprini!? :no: Gonerelli, the huge Italian defender. In the fifth century, as the once-mighty Roman Empire crumbled, the soft underbelly of Western Europe lay invitingly exposed to the barbarian hordes to the East. Vicious gangs of "keep-left" signs. :scared: Let`s see how you get on with him, eh? Ah yes, he likes you. He's taken to you. FIVE YEARS, TWO MONTHS AND TWENTY-SIX DAYS LATER... :bang bang: :codger: Hello darling. Had a busy day at the office? What do you know about it? What do you know about getting up at five o'clock in the morning. That's a full working day, and don't you forget it! :moon: I don't understand what you're saying. Simon gets up at three o'clock :blink: and goes back to bed again because it's far too early. Well, our TRF computers have been working all day to analyse the dramatic information that's come in from this first ever intergalactic probe. Still no news of the National Savings book lost by Mr. Charles Griffiths of Porthcawl during a field expedition to the Nature Reserves of Swansea last July. :| Do you think we should really be blaming ourselves? Because you know, that's where we really ought to start looking. And then you can roll around on the floor going 'pting pting pting'. :joker: icky icky ptang ZOOT!
  5. I enjoyed his later stuff too - the rotisserie, glh, the knife set w his dad....
  6. A trend I've noticed is that you post random questions once in a blue moon about subjects pertaining to the R30: 30th Anniversary World Tour video. Hopefully you can be more active and contribute something to the forum. Uncharacteristically mean spirited of you RFF. Honestly I think we don't get enough new Rush threads anymore (though I'm very guilty of perpetuating the problem by making non-Rush threads every day). The fact that he's asking anything at all is positive for discussion, not to mention this is an interesting question. And on top of all that, while technically a trend needs a minimum of two data points, I think it's a bit premature to talk about trends of someone who has, as of this writing, a total of four posts, two of which are in this thread. pasqua, you go right on asking questions. Thanks a lot my friend, I truly appreciate that. Unlike some, you seem like a friendly and welcoming guy. Most of us are (thumbs up).
  7. Not with the Curry's surgery we use, no madam. :cool: Oh we didn't realize you had an installation invoice. Yes! All the bits of it. :gumby: One can see the immense amount of preparation involved. Have there been many difficulties in setting up this venture? Ah, I'm just getting...I'm just getting...a buzzing noise in my left ear. :bitchslap: Urgh, argh! Oh, nothing dear. Just a twig brushing against the window. Oh Mike, you're such a comfort. :wub: And there's a card, sir,... from all of us. Sorry about the blood, sir. Oh dear, yes, well I'd probably better have a look at you then. Could you fill in this form first? :unsure: Aaaargh! Oh, it's my writer's cramp! Write it out a hundred times. :poke: If it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your balls off. I did say sorry about the `old woman,' but from the behind you looked... This sloppy long-haired civilian plagiarism will be dealt with most severely. :16ton: Hello, I'm your new vicar. Can I interest you in any encyclopaedias? I'll just take the 'Lord Lieutenant in Nylons' and these two copies of 'Piggie Parade'. Thank you. :drool: Stop that! It's silly. And a bit suspect... Because of the unsuitability of the scene, the BBC will be replacing it with a scene from a repeat of 'Gardening Club' for 1958. So, let's just stop gabbing on about it. It's completely pointless and it's getting us nowhere!
