Yahoo! News - Qwest Stock Slammed on Accounting Woes

Is anyone surprised that more and more companies are coming out of the woodwork and admitting that they fudged books to create an aura of profits when there were really minimal improvements. Isn't there some saying that goes, Those that can, do, those that cannot, fake it?

Anybody want to take bets on how many more companies do this voluntarily? Does it make sense to blow the whistle on yourself, does it abuse your stock price any less? Does it allow a sliver of respectability to be retained? Does anyone trust big business? Did they ever?

Who do you trust less, Corporate America, Dubya and Dicky in the White House, Father Sodomite (or is that Pastor Sodomite?), that latest SPAM for prestigious non-accredited college degrees or a used car salesman?

Yep, too close to call. We'll call it a tie across the board with the used car salesman slightly less than the rest because you're not supposed to trust them. And SPAM's in its own category altogether. I've always wanted to talk to a spammer and get an idea of by what justification they are ruining the internet. They are the blockages, they are the aneurisims (sp?), they are the lamprey infestations in the waterways of the internet. And its only going to get worse.
