Funny Thing

The world or should I say the small piece that I inhabit goes to hell in a handbasket I am at a loss for words. I standby watching the economy sink into a morass while banks and wallstreet is being bailed out with the explanation that this is really to ensure confidence in the economy. The auto companies which made crap for years are begging hat in hand, oh but while our retirement packages dissapate into vapor, executives are sneaking off to high priced resorts so political wannabes on the make can sound off in manufactured outraged. As if their lives are also on the line while so many retirees lives are sinking into another type of morass. One wonders in NYC if we will see a resurgence in bag ladies and bag men begging and decaying on streets that perhaps will also decay and lay strewn with old garbage. Subways dangerous and tagged to the point of being surreal spray painted mockerys of old times. I suspect this will be a great time for confidence tricksters, scammers, phishers, penis pills, online gambling, thieves, parasites and the magazines that tout the life style of other types of parasites who will draped themselves in jewels and pelts while drowning in rivers of high priced hooch. This will be the primary export from the US beyond cow hides and soybeans.

ta ta for now
