Economic Recovery

Today in the mail I got:

• A letter explaining that a certain Corporate Bank can help me if I'm having trouble making my payments
• 2 Debt reduction/debt forgiveness solicitations
• A letter explaining that the limit on my Macy's card, which has a zero balance, has been reduced
• An offer for a new credit card that will give me airline miles

In my email, I received a notice that, since I'm such a good customer, the limit on one of my credit cards has been increased.

This gives me the impression that, as a nation, we don't know what the f**k we're doing.

I wasn't even washing her off as dinner preparation or nothin'! In fact, it was her mother washing her off in my sink, but man, that's just cute.

Proud to Have Known Her

My cousin (1st, once, removed) Lila Weinberg passed away last weekend, this is her obituary from the Chicago Tribune.

I am proud to have known her, and lucky to have been her relative.
