  1. Got this email this morning. Probably a repost, but oh well.

    There recently was an article in the St. Petersburg Times. The Business Section asked readers for ideas on

    "How Would You Fix the Economy?

    I think this guy nailed it!

    Dear Mr. President,

    Please find below my suggestion for fixing America's economy. Instead of giving billions of dollars to companies that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan.You can call it the "Patriotic Retirement Plan":

    There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work force. Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:

    1) They MUST retire. Forty million job openings - Unemployment fixed.

    2) They MUST buy a new American CAR. Forty million cars ordered. Auto Industry fixed.

    3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage. Housing Crisis fixed.

    It can't get any easier than that!!

    P.S. If more money is needed, have all members in Congress pay their taxes...

    and, Mr. President, while you're at it, make Congress retire on Social Security and Medicare. I'll bet both programs would be fixed pronto!

  2. You probably need a half day anyway :) It's nice to randomly sleep in every now and then

    Yeah if I didn't have two meetings this morning I would have done that.

    Instead, I requested that they call me, I would come home and unlock the house. Since it's like four blocks from my office.

    I'm gonna be fucking furious if I don't get a phone call from Columbia.

  3. So the gas company has threatened to disconnect my service, becasue I haven't been there when they have come to read the meter. Has this ever happened to anyone else? I'm sorry, I have to goto wor to pay your stupid bill. I fill out the little card they leave, and call it in. Sounds pretty simple to me.

    So, they suggested that I get an electronic meter, so that I never have to be home for them to read it.

    Now they want me to block out 4 hours when they might show up for the install. They tell me this today, for an install tommorrow. Well I have got shit to do in the morning. So, they want me to leave my door unlocked, and they will lock it when they leave.:mad: Not only does this bother me because the whole world could come visit, but, to have someone just meandering through my house whilst I'm at work.

    Thoughts?
