did I post this one already?

Not too far fetched...

It's a hot, steamy August day in a resort town that sits on the shores of a small lake.

It's raining, and the little town looks totally deserted. Times are tough in the recession, everybody in town is in debt and living on credit. A rich tourist drives into town, enters the local hotel, lays a 100 dollar bill on the reception counter, and goes to inspect the rooms upstairs before picking one for the night.

When the tourist is out of sight, the hotel proprietor pockets the 100 dollar bill and runs to pay his debt to the butcher. The Butcher, in turn, takes the 100 dollar bill, runs down the block and pays his debt to the pig farmer who's about to do his weekly shopping at the Co-Op. The pig farmer heads on into the store and pays his feed and fuel bill to the store owner. The Co-Op manager grabs the 100 dollar bill and runs up the back stairs of the hotel to pay his debt to the town prostitute that, in these hard times, had been giving her "services" on credit. The hooker skips down the front stairs to the the reception desk and happily pays off her room rental account to the proprietor with the same 100 dollar bill.

At this point, the hotel proprietor places the 100 dollar bill back on the counter, exactly where the tourist had left it earlier so he won't suspect he's done anything with it. Seconds later, the tourist returns and says, "Sorry. I didn't really like any of the rooms." picks up his 100 dollar bill, and leaves town.

No one actually earned anything, however, the whole town is now without debt, and looks to the future with a lot of optimism.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the United States government is doing business today.

Perhaps us adults could learn a thing or two from her as well.


By the way, what's a kudo?

[prairierose]

From Webster's New World Dictionary: "Credit for an achievement; glory, fame; often wrongly taken to be the plural of an assumed word 'kudo'." So kudo is not a word, but kudos is.

75 degrees yesterday. Went fishing. Didn't catch a darn thing. But didn't really care.

It always makes cleaning a lot easier.

note: the cat's whiskers on the left side: I didn't get the pumpkin scraped thin enough. The meat of the pumpkin was thicker than the little saw, that came in the pattern kit..............
we did not roast seeds, either..
