Decision '08 Watches
If Hillary is elected in 2008, will she give up her Rolex? Will Bill go back to his Ironman?

American politicians often feel the need to connect with the average Wal-Mart shopper, so they wear cheap semi-American watches. They don't want to alienate the common man. So instead of wearing a Rolex or PP, they get their Timex VP, Yale classmate to make them a custom gold Timex. Bill Clinton frequently wore a Timex digital, but is now a bit of a WIS, preferring Panerai. Hillary Clinton currently wears a Rolex. |

Yeah, I KNOW!
Just didn't get what the point was since I have never noticed Bill wearing a cheap watch.

Everyone keeps saying that, but no one actually does it. The funny thing is that a Clinton administration would still be substantially to the right of the typical European government.

Go real easy gents, I can already see that self control is not going to be exercised along with common sense. This thread is one more "opinion" from being killed.

Dune?
Is that baby photo and caption a take-off on the original version of Dune where Duke Leto Atreides tries to kill Duke Vladimir Harkoonen by biting down on the poison within his tooth put there by the (traitor) Dr.Wellington Yueh as revenge for the murder of his wife by House Harkonnen??
Or have I simply had too much Myers and coke tonight?? Yeah, Daren is right, much as I hate to admit it, have lost ALL self control. But, seriously, Happy Thanksgiving(that is non-political Happy Thanksgiving) to all, whether you eat turkey or chicken or whatever, whenever, and wherever.... |

I think we should agree to mock all of the politicians, or none of them. Otherwise it becomes a polarizing thread.
I vote for mocking them all. |

Interesting piece on Bill Clinton going from Timex to Rolex and beyond in the current issue of Watch Time.

We have an election this weekend for a new (or the same) Prime Minister in Australia.
I think it is killing the exchange rate because it has slipped against the Euro and it is killing me |

Sure. Tell you what, I'll lend you my copy and you can lend me your SS Daytona.
Heck, you can even keep the magazine! Seriously, though, of course you can read it.
