As long as it happened!

Try telling our government that! Congress members should be required to take a basic economics class ... or better yet, we could have term limits so they have to go out and survive in the real world. I

The sun's supposed to shine again tomorrow! After it rains. Again.

That won't keep us from trying! But conditions have been right for an economic downturn, and now the coronavirus and an oil price war are pushing us over the edge. The Federal government believes very

Google! There were a lot of 8th anniversary suggestions available, but I only used the ones I could make funny. We had a nice, bright, sunshiny day Sunday--absolutely beautiful. Of course, the day before

Politicians don't have as much effect on improving the economy as they think they do--but certainly they can screw things up, especially with accumulating debt. If anything makes our economy really tank,

I understand the stock markets have taken their worst hit since 1987, with only a few times that bad before this. We were way overdue for what they like to call a "correction", so maybe this

I think we're past the benefits of quarantining a single country at this point, especially a country like China that seems to still be hiding how bad it really is over there. But it's going to happen anyway,

That actually is covered in the book--and I hope all those naysayers who think a new virus is no big deal will take notice!

Many--maybe most--people here think America needs some radical changes--the problem is agreeing what those changes will be! That's the biggest reason why Trump was elected, and if Sanders gets any traction

Sorry, you're right: he was the mayor of South Bend, not Gary. Both are in the same region, and both are a mess, but South Bend is a bit less of a mess than Gary is. South Bend has the advantage of being

Oh, I do puns. Just ask my wife. Maybe I shouldn't have admitted that. I've never actually heard the phrase "good weather, good face". Maybe I'll start using it now!

Yeah, well, what the media isn't mentioning is that Buttigieg (how is that spelled, anyway?) is the mayor of Gary, Indiana, which is a complete trainwreck thanks to the mishandling of a series of Democrat

As I understand the story, Christie made it so several characters could be the murderer, then decided at the end which of them it would be. So, since all were a possibility, she didn't really have to do

I'm hoping to turn it into a mystery book series ... getting it on TV is only a dream, but of course it could happen. First I have to get the opening book published! I don't know if it's true what Christie

Could be--in which case, it's a smart strategy.

I wonder if they're using it as a loss leader--taking a loss on the delivery costs in return for getting more customers, and making up for it in bulk sales. Honestly, I don't know much about how that works.

Oh, I didn't mean she physically went around comparing prices--she's all prepared before we every leave the house. After all, there's no point in burning two dollars of gas to save a dollar on groceries!

That's what I love about my wife: She double, triple, quadruple checks everything--she knows if it's really a bargain, she understands "every day low price", she gets all the little tricks. When

Maybe that is the reason Amazon does the strange things it does--just to keep curious people coming back. But it makes the rest of us crazy! It would help explain why someone's trying to sell a used copy
