Random Thoughts... Sorry it's been a while

For some reason that picture up there still doesn't work. It used to and then Blogspot did something. Ugh.

Well it was nice half of today and all I want is ICE CREAM. Lots of ice cream. Cookie Doughn't You Want Some in particular. But when milk is over $3/gallon and gas near $4 a gallon who is going to buy a $6 bowl of ice cream??!! I wish people would stop whining and complaining that they don't have money. If this country and its citizens were in real financial trouble, then every single Cold Stone, casino, and liquor store should be completely out of business because they are all unnecessary to existence.

Homeowners get bailed out - the Senate passed the bill to bail out these morons who got loans they claim "they didn't understand" and can't pay back. How many of these people lied on their application? Probably more than most people realize. Many loans with certain LTV and amount qualifications allow for stated income. That is right - you don't have to prove or show how much you make. So when this was compared to the IRS reports, people saw that they inflated their income by as much as 50-60%.

I am currently sord of procrastinating. I painted the entire basement with primer, except the corners. So now I need to paint the corners, wait, and paint the real stuff on. It is so exhausting that I think I'll wait it out but I'll get it done this week. Unlike those poor suckers that could have had their refund by now, but haven't even finished their taxes. Tee hee. You know who you are.

Lake Saint Louis: I live in LSL where it is illegal to have a commercial sign on your vehicle or your residential property. BUT if you don't have permits for your finished basement (which poses a fire hazard to the homeowner and those around them), then LSL doesn't seem to care. I haven't yet figured out why yet.......
