Seniors On Line for Sleep Catch up
Panda Lady
We Seniors like to catch up with the late night humor by going on line. This humor is important to us as we know that humor helps us deal with what we find hopeless.
Our local radio station provides we Seniors who go to bed early the previous nights top ten from David Letterman. While waking I heard his list from last night program which was on a hot topic; ways to stimulate the economy. It set my freshly rested mind to thinking that stimulating the economy may not be the answer but rather being a little more responsible may be the answer.
Remember back when you gave allowances to your children. There was a price to pay right as we said it to be “earning your allowance”. My thought is that we should give but we should learn to live frugal and within our means. So I created a list from a Seniors point of view who has been around the block a few times and made more than my share of financial mistakes.
Ten Ways to Save instead of Stimulate Economic Growth
1. George and Laura Bush should carpool to Texas with snowbirds RV-ing south
2. Sell the Bridge to Nowhere on a hundred year flexible lease
3. Obama should pay an inheritance tax when assuming office (Would anyone really want to inherit all this)
4. Feb. 17 09—all channels should become “The shopping Channel”or Info Commercial channels Many would turn the tv off and go get a job to buy all that stuff.
5. Charge daily rent on ALL unoccupied seats in the the House of Reps. and Senate.
6. Americans should buy only American made Pork Barrels
Note: Chinese made Pork Barrels do not exist at Walmart
7. Sell land and all rights to the Berring Strait Bridge/Tunnel to the Russians. After all they gave us a good deal when we bought Alaska from them.
We should insist that there be a McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Texas Roadhouse on the Alaskan side.
8. Surgeons should provide 2 for 1 surgery specials. Have surgery with a friend and split the cost. One get well card to be shared from the local Senior Center.
9. All New Homes should be built on wheels When the morage goes default, merely move to another location. Ditto for those who can’t pay lot rent.
10. You can provide this one–I have run out of ideas.
Panda Picked on line humor that we can access the next day or write up our own. After all humor is contagious but we can’t lose out on our precious quality sleep.
