Well That Explains the Unemployment Rate

February 20, 2012 at 7:50 pm (Uncategorized)

I read this story yesterday and it makes sense. Being long term unemployed will drive you crazy. You go crazy and go on disability. You go on disability and you are no longer in the job market. If you aren’t in the job market then the unemployment rate goes down. When the unemployment rate goes down, old Skippy in the White House takes credit for improving the economy. So in a sense, Obama’s economic policies are driving people insane.

FOLLY FOR NOBEL

Hey, I figure if they're just giving the damn thing away, why not give it to me? Send my name to the Nobel nominating committee. I figure I should at least get it for literature based upon my cumulative blog works. I'll even cut you in on the prize. I want Hot Chocolate's, "You Sexy Thing," played when I accept my prize. Meanwhile, I'm working on that coveted Peace Prize. Granted, I haven't done the works of Mother Theresa or Nelson Mandela but hell, neither has Obama. I'm sure there's some way I can promote world peace or whatever.
