Its nice in the dark

So, I write here in the dark, because simply, I am trying to save money during the Economic Crisis. Right! right!? You to?

Well some of us, maybe me even, are in a crisis, say, if I drive my car to much, or well, maybe I buy some clothes or go out to dinner a few times a month with a movie too! Or hey, I know, maybe my bank could fail. Hmm, WAMU anyone else?? It was easy when the market was good... and the house in Arizona was worth something. And now this? jeez.

So i sit in the dark...and here is what I see.



Which side are you?

The Joke

I finally see the big picture. I see the text in its proper light and suddenly it is clear! He was joking! Henry Paulson sent the first document to The Congress....as a joke.....so they would get to work on something! As if to say, what have you (congress) been doing? This was seen and forecasted years ago, and now its nearly to late to fix it and....What have you been doing??" So what he sent is a joke, by asking for it all he was saying to Congress, you can't do it so here......This is what I need to get it done. Give Me Everything! Total control of the Economy. Then he probably had an aid flip the bird to the aid who took the Single piece of paper to ask, so nicely, for 700! BILLION! DOLLARS!!!! NOW!

Right, hah, like that was, Hah, Gonna happen! "snort"

AND....he is totally right on. You heard me. He's right. We're screwed either way and he just knows it, that's all. He sees that we are in that deep.

And so Congress says, fine, I guess we'll go back to work, but Rosh Hashanah is coming, so, ya know, don't wait, just let it collapse. No biggee to us. We'll be back to figure out where we went wrong later, uh, oh crap....can I have a napkin, Please! ~an aid rushs to help~ Jeez, Congress says, I spilled my Vente non-fat latte. SHOOT!! Don't you just hate that? he asks.

You reply, Yeah I used to really enjoy a Mocha from Starbucks.....but I can't.

Well Why??? Asks Mr. Congress

Well. you say ,because of this stupid Economic crisis, basically created by you and Wall Street, I can't afford to buy fancy Starbucks coffee anymore. And since us normal Americans can't buy our coffee, my Starbucks stock goes down, Jobs are suddenly "in Jeopardy" and all the while you get to go on vacation for a Holiday?? Great, Thanks, thanks alot....See you at the voting both!

Ha, funny joke right?
