Time will tell. It doesnt have to be great, just regular.

As the kid said while frantically shoveling, "With all this ****,
there's just *got* to be a pony under there somewhere."

That leaves a severe case of self-destructive behavior as the
most likely answer.

Could be. I was raised poor, so I guess Im trying to stay true to my
roots. Right?

Farmer wins the lottery. Reporter asks, "Now that you've won the
lottery, what are you going to do?" Farmer answers, "Guess I'll
keep farming until the money runs out."

Problem is, if what you've been telling us is true, you haven't won
the lottery, and the money is running out.

I sincerely hope you can hang on until better times. But there
probably isn't a pony under there, and you're likely to wind up
with no assets at all if you keep flogging what appears to be
a dead horse.

Maybe, maybe not. Still in all..there really hasnt been too many
alternatives yet, and Ive been looking. None that dont cost more
money than I can raise, to impliment.

"As physicists now know, there is some nonzero probability that any object will,
through quantum effects, tunnel from the workbench in your shop to Floyds Knobs,
Indiana (unless your shop is already in Indiana, in which case the object will
tunnel to Trotters, North Dakota).
The smaller mass of the object, the higher the probability.
Therefore, disassembled parts, particularly small ones,
of machines disappear much faster than assembled machines."
