Have y'all been watching the SNL skits regarding the debates and the economy? If not, you owe it to yourself to watch at least one. They are hilarious! And, considering the state of our economy, most notably, the stock market, we all need a laugh.

I work in the financial industry so the last month has been extremely stressful and hectic. We've seen clients losing hundreds of thousands of dollars. I don't know about you, but, that's a shitload of money to me! That's the risk you take when you invest. And, hey! Gas prices are going down as fast as the DOW!!!

This morning, I got up, went outside for my morning ciggie (cigarettes are bad for you, blah blah blah) and had that song, Mockingbird. But, not just the regular song, the one from Dumb & Dumber where they are driving with the guy that wants to kill them and they are singing it. Yeah, I am super special.

Back in August, me and some friends went to see The Dave Matthews Band. It was at

Autozone Park. The stadium was on the field at the back. The "floor" seats were actually general admission and there were no chairs, you had to stand. Anyway, our seats were on the second row, in the stands, on the first base side. Not too shabby. So, we decided after a little while that we wanted to go down onto the field and get closer. So, we jump over the wall, onto the field. We have ninja skillz, no? I'm sure that no one else thought to do what we did. So, blah blah blah, we watch the concert from very much close and then left. By the time we got home, around hell if I know, my knee was hurting. And, considering the amount of beer consumed, it's hard to believe I could feel it. To make a long story short, my knee still hurts!!! WTF! And, I can't wait to explain why to the orthopedist when I finally go.

Clearly I have nothing interesting to blog about, so there ya go.

I agree...in today's financial crisis, if you didn't laugh, you'd cry. I've heard some stuff that has made me laugh out loud...

On The Colbert Report, he was comparing today's stock market crisis to the stock market crash of 1929. He said, "1929 was for pussies!"

And then I heard someone, when talking about the $700 billion bailout say, "Can't Cindy McCain just slap it on her American Express card?"

LOL! Good stuff!

I never actually watch SNL anymore, but I have watched all those skits on youtube. They are freakin hilarious and I swear, Tina Fey, has got Sarah Palin down to a T. The voice, especially!

Haven't watched SNL in awhile, although I do check out you tube once in awhile for the skits.

And the whole financial crisis thing...I'm ignoring it for now as best I can. I WILL NOT look at my 401K right now. Can't do it.
