Good news everyone!
Ok, now for why that isn’t really very good news at all. Good jobs went away only to be replaced by crappy ones with low wages and low/no benefits. This is double true if you happen to be a man. And the number of people who are not in the labor market but now want a job is up 292,000 this month (for the math impaired, 292,000 is greater than 217,000). And we still have businessmen arguing with a straight face that it would be bad for business to pay sick workers to stay home 3 days a year rather than have them come to work and share their illness with coworkers and customers.
No wonder the majority of Americans think that the “American Dream” is out of reach.
In Closing: Got a whole heaping helping of random NSA, Snowden, privacy, secrecy, spying, terrorism, and related links; people hate the cable company, love cute kittens, film at 11; a couple of gun links; turns out the stoner was actually drunk, but that doesn’t make for a good pot-is-bad story; breakin the law; careful what you post on Facebook; eggs; for a movement that calls itself “men’s rights“, they spend a lot of time worrying about women (yeah, pretty sad that’s Cracked pointing it out too); young adult literature; and social media.
The American Dream is turning into a nightmare. Gasoline prices are escalating all over the country. Food prices are increasing commensurately. It’s a tough deal, especially for seniors and others on fixed incomes. Is it any wonder that dollar stores are doing so well? It’s got so bad here in Fort Worth that the local Goodwill store is folding and going out of business. The next generation is in trouble, and it’s heartbreaking.
I’ve heard tell that one can extend the storage life of eggs by rubbing mineral oil on the shells, which are somewhat porous.
Oh yeah: Buh…. buh… BUH… Because….well… Bitches!!!
