I need a Stress Test
by Angus_Mac on Comments
Can someone tell me what a stress test is and why someone outside of the financial industry should care? What's the point in figuring out if a bank sucks? If they fail the test, wouldn't that mean people would lose confidence in the bank's results and cause it to collapse more? Why can't companies hire people and get them back to work? That'd do a lot more for consumer confidence if people can earn money and then use it to stimulate the economy. Swine flu sucks. Some of the cases are near where I live, and given how people go to work sick and send their sick kids to school or out in public, that's not a good thing for quarantines. And isn't it AP testing season; how's that for messing with schools? And correlating it to allergy season sucks too, because then everyone gets paranoid over a sniffle. I hope everyone can stay healthy through this, and overcome it if they get hit with it. What do people think of these cross-promoting free networks? I remember years ago, Showtime and HBO would have free preview weekends, and that was quite the treat, but now we have DIY channel advertising on HGTV and Disney XD advertising on Disney? Why? Is some minor triple digit channel really going to inspire me to increase my cable budget to triple digits? As for the fastest two minutes in sports, gotta quick question; do they run other races for the derby that day or just that one race? I can't remember. Usually for regular horse racing there are like ten races of all sorts of classes. Other goodies: School Rumble - Thank goodness; I needed that laugh. I think it's as good as or even better than Ouran, and that's saying quite a bit. Bolt - It's got an Angus looking dog, which instantly puts it above the average movie. Hey, it worked for Stuart Little 2 and Kitty. Dragonball Z Season Eight - Goku spent an entire episode powering up to Super Saiyan 3. And Vegeta spent an entire episode saying goodbye. Some of the discs had scratches, which was really annoying, but thank goodness for fast forward and captions. Thanks to Master_M2K for the Trust on Rosario+Vampire. Gotta love magical girl shows even if they have clichéd storylines.
