Joe drank his six-packs and watched all the Presidential Debates and
Campaign speeches. He heard someone talking about "Joe Sixpack" and
wondered if she knew how "Joe Sixpack" got that nick-name, and what she was
going to do about it. He watched as everyone fought over the $700 Billion
Bailout and wondered if that would help him.and hoped it would. The Bailout
passed, but his phone didn't stop ringing. The Credit Card Company was
still charging him 30%. The Mortgage Company still didn't seem to have any
answers. He called his agent and asked again about selling the house. She
agreed to help him do a "short-sale", but she didn't quite know how that
worked. He went out to see where he might rent if he sold his house "short",
but no one would give him a rental, because his credit was now fckd.
