how bad is it?

The economy is so bad that:

  • I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.
  • I ordered a burger and the kid at the counter asked, “Can you afford fries with that?”
  • CEO’s are now playing miniature golf.
  • If the bank returns your check marked “Insufficient Funds,” you call them and ask if they meant you or them.
  • Hot Wheels and Matchbox stocks are trading higher than GM.
  • McDonalds is selling the 1/4 ouncer.
  • Parents in Beverly Hills have fired their nannies and learned their children’s names.
  • A truckload of Americans was caught sneaking into Mexico.
  • Dick Cheney took his stockbroker hunting.
  • The Mafia is laying off judges.
  • Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen.

And finally, Congress says they are looking into this Bernard Madoff scandal:

  • Oh, great!! The guy who made $50 Billion disappear is being investigated by the people who made $1.5 Trillion disappear!
