Hi Russ,

When I first heard of the stimulus package, I thought it sounded like a sad sellout of the American people, along with so many others by Congress. I still think so. But, of course, once this whole bread and circuses thing was a done deal, I figured that I might as well start looking into what was in it for me. At that point, what else could I do? Right? I called that little project my stim sell research. And to heap insult upon injury, my stim sell research netted me nada. It's that unearned income thing.

(I think it does look a little better with the period out. Maybe I should have done it that way.)

So anyway. Thanks for asking. I should have been more clear. It was pretty lame.

Now, here is the part where I am typing really, really fast because this is one of my disclaimers. The disclaimer says that I am not trying to take this thread any further into the political arena than I already have.

You know, I really do need to learn to stop flinging my words into cyberspace, leaving the house, and half way to where I am going suddenly thinking, "Oh :edit:, whatinthehell did I write back there?" I really do not intend to get political. But I find myself drawn into the discussions on the economy. I should just stick to confessing all my secret loves for unlikely famous men and making you all hear my fear that Mr. Boomer will leave me for Paula Deen.

When I arrived at TOTV last winter, I was relatively sane and I had led an excruciatingly responsible life. Now I think I may have turned into a certifiable whackadoo. But it is fun.
