Presidents and You


Greetings on this most chaste of holidays, which we pretty much forgot about until last Friday.

We bought a very old farmhouse and today we had some maintenance done which required the power to be off for a bit. So without power, I am also sans the internet.

It doesn't look like I missed much in the news. Unfortunately the recession did not go away since this morning, that's a bummer. Obama has his hands full with bank debt and with GM and Chrysler about to tank, not to mention an absurd reaction from the ever present wing nuts. Also a few states are in fiscal calamity mode.

One thing I can definitely comment on is the spam, crap, there's tons of it lately. I am getting spam for colon cleansing, penis enlargement, and healthful dieting. Apparently this is where the big money is these days.

Bush policy seems to have left us with a massive country colon cleansing. Bush gave the country "C diff." C diff is a brutal infection that hits older people in hospitals. Basically you can "evacuate yourself" literally to death. Try to keep out of hospitals, especially when you are in advanced years.

This recession is fierce and tenacious. Try not to let it get you down, we're all in this thing together.

I agree the country is in for a high colonic as they used to call them. The problem is the people that need to be flushed are flush all right, but with our cash. The rest of us are the one's going down the drain not them. The reward structure in this country is as upside down as half of it's homeowners these days. BV$Hworld will be with us for a very long time , even without him.
