   I decide to see how far Comrade Helicopter has gotten within the context of the outside world, how notable we are. Or at least what its title means in its own context. Answer: some bizarre stuff.

This is just from one of those Asian websites that has a long list of random English words.

Weird that they're next to each other like that.

Crazy. It really makes you wonder how many random English word websites there are.

I think it's a cool concept, reminds me of numbers stations.

But three of the eleven results are actually about the band. I got kind of worried with this one, (the only non-asian, non-band related hit) but it's okay, because the dude calls everyone comrade.

Wall Street could not get enough of banks or anything that touched a mortgage today. The failure of IndyMac and the troubles at Phony and Fraudy were forgotten in the stampede. Wells Fargo decided to extend the number of days they don't get paid on a loan before classifying it as delinquent. Voila! They hit the analysts earnings expectations. And once again the sky is blue in financial land.

But Comrade Cox was more worried about short sellers and not that Wells Fargo can change the accounting rules as they please. Of course Comrade Cox was missing in action while Comrade Greenscam was blowing bubbles and now that we know there was rampant fraud. But neither has that stopped Comrade Helicopter Ben from his generosity to the Wall Street CEO proletariat.

Haha, that's... unsettling.
