I Sense Another Bailout Coming Up
The answer to our movie quiz this morning: Titanic. We have another one coming up tomorrow morning.
My wife Rae (Notice the spelling of her name is Rae, not Ray. I don't want anybody getting any funny ideas.) and I are in the process of moving. We're in our new place (sort of), but we don't really have to be out of our old place until mid-January. This makes for an easier move because it can be done very leisurely. There is also a downside to it. For one thing, for a month, we're financially supporting 2 places and in this economy, that's bad news. The other problem is we have stuff in both places, so you go to put a pair of shoes on in the morning, and you realize they're in the other place. Finally, because we bring stuff over to the new place every time we go over, both of our cars constantly look like the Beverly Hillbilly's car. It should all be over soon.
What did we talk about this morning? In the "Gee, she reminds me of EX-wife number 2" department, Donna Duell of Anderson, Indiana was arrested on suspicion of arson for setting her ex-boyfriends clothing on fire at a self-storage center and causing more than $100,000.00 in damage. WOW, this guy must have had a lot of clothes!! If Rae set my whole wardrobe on fire, I'd be out of about 39 bucks.
Here's something we didn't get a chance to talk about. It illustrates just how bad the economy really is. The stripper club business across the country is hurting. These places ALWAYS survive, but not this time. The Associated Press is reporting that the famous strip club in New York City, Scores, made famous by radio personality Howard Stern is closing their doors forever due to a drop in business. In addition, the AP says the Greektown Casino in Detroit is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and Jon Jon's Cabaret, also in Detroit, says business is way down. So much so, that they've cut their hours. They now open at 6 P.M. instead of 11 A.M.
My guess is this is one Detroit business that could easily get a bailout from Congress.
The grand prize drawing of our $5,000.00 Little Tree is now just days away. If you haven't registered yet, get on it!!!
