QUOTE Washington Mutual Bank, the country's largest savings and loan, was seized late today by federal regulators and immediately sold to JPMorgan Chase & Co., the New York banking giant that has long coveted the thrift's California and Florida branches. With assets of $307 billion and deposits of $188 billion, Washington Mutual is the largest bank to fail in U.S. history. and the hits just keep on coming. -------------------- |

I remember in Lubbock, we used to be driving around at lunch and would see some new business being built and go "ooh cool what's that going to be??" then drive past it and see.. "oh... it's just another fucking bank"
