PING: Abe (Or should the Fed Use Dice)
From this article discussing the Federal Reserve Board and suggesting that perhaps some uncertainty would be a good thing. Made me think of Abe and his love of dice.

We already have a financial system with built-in risks, but the government wants to bail everyone out. Whether it's the derivative betting that drove AIG into the ground, or the screwy mortgages that sent everyone into a tailspin when the payments ballooned, we've shown as a country that we're not willing to tell folks to go screw themselves when they bet poorly in our economy.

I'll re-ping Abe here -- driving on I-94 yesterday, I saw a van that totally could have been you. It had WVU and EMU stickers on the back windshield. Pretty weird.

Or, if someone wants to repost the South Park clip of the beheading of the chicken to determine what to do about a particular bailout- that would work, too
