A Mix for the Bail-Out

If you live under a rock you might not know that we’re currently in a “credit crisis,” “financial downturn,” or, as the history books have always seemed to call what we’re in – a recession. You might also not yet be aware that as we speak the United States Senate is negotiating a deal with the chairman of the federal reserve and the secretary of the treasury to give a bunch of companies with, apparently, irresponsible CEO’s a lot of money to be irresponsible again with. Some economists say that it’s a necesary evil, and that the consequences of nothooking up that sweet bail-out cash are far worse than ponying up the loot itself. Other economists are saying Ben Bernanke is super annoying. I’m saying that since I’m about to be purchasing a vehicle and I might have killed my computer yesterday that i too would like a bailout, but you can have me for $7,500 instead of 750 Billion

At any rate, here we are for better or worse. In a recession, at war, trying to decide who will hope in the drivers seat of this flaming death trap, and I feel fine. Did anyone see the Office last night? How about that ending…
