The Fear Vote

 

Where has the time gone?  I really did hope to post more thoughts about the upcoming election.  Now it’s less than a week away and I still have a list of good intentions.  I had no delusions that I would sway anyone one way or the other, but I do enjoy the discussions.  Let’s see what I can bang out on the keyboard between now and Tuesday.

The (Financial) Pain

 

Last week was historic – the worst week for the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) EVER.  It closed last Friday with the largest one week percentage drop in its history.  The S&P Index didn’t fair well either.  It had its worst week since 1933.  Worse yet, all of that happened AFTER third quarter broker statements went out showing gut wrenching year-to-date declines for most investors.  This week hasn’t been very reassuring either.

Rezko Lesson

 

Please click here if you haven’t read my Disclaimer 2008 for this blog category yet.

 

Why is it that so many Republicans are quick to point out that Obama was once chummy with Tony Rezko and that they were involved in a real estate deal together?  They get all high and mighty and wag fingers about the fact that Rezko is now a convicted felon.  “Oooh… Obama hangs out with felons.”

Completely Inappropriate

Be warned… The following is not quite a “dick joke” but it falls into that category of adult humor.  Obnoxious, uncouth, uncalled for and an element of truth.  If you don’t appreciate this type of humor, do not read below the double line. – Christopher

I recently received an email from my friend Chuck, who concluded his message with the following:
obama rules
palin drools.
’nuff said.
While I generally agreed with his sentiment, I felt the need to clarify.  (In other words, NOT enough said.)  So I responded with the following:
You’re right about Obama.
But McCain is the drooler.  I’m guessing Palin is a spitter.
If we’re going to have a woman that high up, I want one that swallows or munches carpet.  You know… someone who can commit.
Maybe too much said.

On the Web

 

Cleaning up my email in box after spending a long weekend in Las Vegas.  (I sure do love Las Vegas.)  Anyway, I came across a few goodies that were forwarded to me and wanted to share.  Check out these links:
