*Nice to hear that the stimulus package is already trickling down to
benefit the unemployed. Watching TV should keep everyone's mind off of
the economy.

I'd rather use work to distract myself, besides I'll need the income to
pay for my neighbors' homes, cars, TV's, cellphones, healthcare, dinner
and entertainment. That's just the bills congress passed this week, who
knows what I'll have to pay for next week.


Me too, living within my means and saving for retirement really worked

couldn't afford or maybe speculated in real estate and lost or even those
poor folks who greedily scammed the system with their banks or brokerages
and need our money to pay their $50 Million bonuses for the great work
they did.

The best comment I heard was from Dennis Miller. He mentioned that many of

individuals telling us how they were able to go to school or make advances

the other half will we get a picture of who we are supporting?

Here is one picture of the first lady serving "the homeless" in DC. I'm sure
cellphones are essential equipment for the "homeless" of today. Tough enough
for me sweating out how I'm going to send my three "high honor roll" kids to
college, now that their college savings are wiped out, but I've got to worry
about keeping the growing number of non productive members of society, in
cellphones
