I went to a Joan Jett concert tonight; all the twenty-somethings are rockin' out to "I Love Rock and Roll..." and at the end one asks another, "What's a Jukebox and why do you put another dime in it?"

The above is actually true. While not a joke, it is funny enough I thought I'd post it here.

We have enough "youth".

How about a fountain of "smart"?



When blondes have more fun, do they know it?



LEARN FROM YOUR PARENTS' MISTAKES
USE BIRTH CONTROL



Money isn't everything,
but it sure keeps the kids in touch.



If at first you don't succeed
skydiving is not for you



We are born naked, wet and hungry.
Then things get worse.

They say every piece of chocolate you eat shortens your life by two minutes.






I've done the math and I died in 1547.

Every cigarette you smoke takes an hour off your lifetime. And gives that hour to Keith Richards.

Phrased alternatively, every additional smoked cigarette increases the Safe Withdrawal Rate of one's retirement portfolio. Of course, cigarettes aren't free, so we should calculate the marginal rate, so to speak, when the funds that are extra incremental safe to withdraw from the portfolio, per cigarette, start to exceed the cost of the cigarette.

You've heard of the Smith and Wesson retirement plan? Well, this is the Philip Morris retirement plan.

In 20 years, when kids ask about the Great Toilet Paper Shortage of 2020:

I'm going to tell them we had to drag our butts across the lawn.

In the snow.

Uphill.

Both ways.

Maybe Mathjak has a calculation for this that he'll share.
