I feel a big ol’ political post brewing prior to next Tuesday’s election. But for now, dear readers, I give you a new stack of quotes courtesy of my Finite Element professor.
(as always, remember to picture a 46-year old Chinese man with a moderate accent)
“I told you to think about it, and did you? No. How do I remind you? Give me your cell phone number. When do you take a shower?”
“People say, “You only teach 6 hours, you have it so easy.” I say it’s not so easy, I have to figure out what to do with the rest of my time.”
Q - one - three plus Q - one - two is equal to Q - three. Did you guys know Dillard’s has 30% off today? My wife called to tell me that there’s no dinner tonight. Q - two - one plus…”

Get Bent!
Sincerely,
Your Children

Encl: your legacy of failure.
Economic “Stimulus” : $168 Billion
AIG Takeover : $85 Billion
Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac Takeover : $200 Billion
Financial Industry Bailout: $850 Billion
———————————————–
Total Cost: $1.30 Trillion
Total offsets (discretionary spending offsets, revenue increases) : $0
Yes that’s right, our federal government has charged $1,300,000,000,000 dollars on the national credit card in the last 9 months. That’s by far the biggest expenditure in the budget. In fact, it’s more than the entire yearly payout from Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid COMBINED!
There is no plan to pay for it.
To put it in more tangible terms: You’ve just had your taxes raised, your universal health care denied, your troops de-funded, your retirement benefits cut, your infrastructure neglected, and your public education system destroyed. The money is gone and eventually the piper must be paid.
Anyone under the age of 40 who isn’t pissed off isn’t paying enough attention.
