mmhmm... shots

well, today I go to get my shots. This should prove to be a good time. All 6 of them :-)

I saw on the news that Obama has bought a half hour primetime tv spot on both NBC and CBS for the end of the month... how weird is that? I'm intrigued... thats a dang long commercial. I'll prolly watch it though, if I'm not doing something better at the time.

So I saw a dang nice car yesterday on the road and it got me on a nice car kick for a bit. In other words... I looked up really nice cars online just to look at them. It wasn't even lusting though, because I was so disgusted that someone would spend that kind of cash on something so... temporary.
So, the fastest, best accelerating, most horse power, most torque... etc is the Bugatti Veyron which costs $1,700,000
it gets 6mpg on the highway
and 2.5 mpg going top speed... which is 253.8mph precisely 1/3 of the speed of sound
at which speed you would use the entire gas tank in 12 minutes. Which is a good thing because you would need a whole new set of tires after 15 minutes.

Sometimes i wish i had that kind of cash... but I can assure you, it wouldn't go towards that lame car. meh... I'd prolly give most of it to camp... haha

speaking of money:
Economists are starting to admit that if the financial situation is not soon corrected we could have another great depression on our hands. I saw that coming for a while... glad they caught up. People still say "we can't have a great depression again because our savings are federally insured". ok... but don't you think that that is putting quite a bit of faith in a faulty government? we are in 10 trillian dollars of debt, do you think the government can afford to come up with that kind of cash if the banks fail? of course, they would have to by law... which means they would just make it in their mints, dropping the worth of the Dollar, increasing inflation dramatically and... wait... causing a great depression. seems like simple enough logic to me.

welp... time for shots! wish me luck!

have to agree about the rediculously expensive cars. If i had that money i'd probably just go to another country and be a missionary, or heck make sandwiches and hand them out in downtown Chicago or Detroit.

That's A LOT of money! I'm glad you got shot today, you know what i mean! I hope you don't get sick.
