Hey I'm still alive and kickin!

"randall randy parker died november"

The above is what someone Google searched and wound up on my BLOG.

The reports of my untimely demise are greatly exaggerated.

Long live France. Socialism failed what should we do? Try it again!

This has been true for decades and decades ... and nothing is done.

Could it be? I am right in what I have been saying? He forgot to add the burden of paying for entitlement spending.

If they can jail seismologists for failing to predict earthquakes, why not economists for missing recessions?

Hee hee.

In parochial school, students are taught that lying is a sin. However, they are also advised that using a bit of
imagination is okay to express the truth differently, without lying. Below is a perfect example of those teachings:

An attractive young woman on a flight from Ireland asked the Priest beside her, "Father, may I ask a favor?"

"Of course child. What may I do for you?"

"Well, I bought my mother an expensive hair dryer for her birthday. It is unopened but well over the Customs
limits and I'm afraid they'll confiscate it. Is there any way you could carry it through customs for me? Hide it
under your Robes perhaps?"

"I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you, I will not lie."

"With your honest face, Father, no one will question you."

When they got to Customs, she let the priest go first. The official asked, "Father, do you have anything to declare?"

"From the top of my head down to my waist I have nothing to declare."

The official thought this answer strange, so asked, "And what do you have to declare from your waist to the floor?"

"I have a marvelous instrument designed to be used on a woman, but which is, to date, unused."

Roaring with laughter, the official said,"Go ahead, Father. Next please!"

Unreal.

A Society that trades freedom for equality will have neither.

Expect nothing and you will never be disappointed.

The American People voted for European welfare state. Say Hi to Thelma and Louise.

A different and perhaps better way to view the labor market.

All in for the lost decade. Congrats to the President.

Look to France for your future because the road map could not be clearer. Have a nice day. 

Don't forget to vote today.

This is another of the many reasons why I love dogs.

Think non-recourse loans are no risk on the downside? Think again. Read the abstract of this article. Bubbles kill.
