Man, This Economy Effing Sucks


Folks, I can't help but be serious about this matter. Our economy is in the tank right now, and I don't know that anyone can provide the answer. During the Great Depression, alcohol was the solution. The entire United States were so vehemently pissed off about prohibition that they came up with genious inventions like Nascar. Really, the moonshine runners eventually decided that they could get drunk themselves by making upwards of 2,000 or so left turns (That is equal to 500 laps at a Nascar track.) So, what will our relief tablet be? I guess we may be looking at the increase of cheap narcotics. Nah, that would never be legal. Maybe marijuana. Who knows.




Yeah, yeah, we know. The thing about Mr. Phelps here, he thinks all of those medals are real gold. I'm sure he has insured them. I had someone tell me that they are Jewish gelt and that they taste wonderful.

Anyhow, the funny thing is that I have heard a number of people saying that they were going to have to get jobs. I grew up very lucky that my mother stayed home and did the household chores, so I got her full attention. Who knows what would have happened to my fragile little mind had I not had someone to speak to. The point is, we didn't live beyond our means. We got by and on modest terms. I mean, we have debt, sure, but who doesn't, but we don't overspend either.

I guess what I'm saying is. Don't get uptight if you have to get a job, but you really don't want to. Like the old mantra goes, only the people that have bills work. Well, we have bills, so we work. Deal with it. The effing crushed rubber playground covering can wait. Put sand on it. I had a sandbox when I was a kid. No telling how many cases of ringworm was in that sandbox because of the cat shit. Who cares how much money you spent now. That sounds like proof that you didn't save any. Now that real estate and homebuilding are in the bowels of hell, where do you go.

The upside is, if you have money, you can buy a lot of shit, dirt cheap. I'm not talking about Fry Street hooker cheap, but you catch my drift. The people that played their cards right are running this country right now. Those that can buy a house or car have the U.S. by its Brat and Potatos. If our president is going to stimulate something, use some Astroglide and give it to the right people.

Well, who knows how the next couple of weeks will go. People may have to work at veterinarian offices cleaning up after animals or working shitty jobs at the local division II university. Who knows.
