This Just In

The following was forwarded to me as a joke. I didn't laugh out loud, but as with a lot of humor, there's just enough truth in it to make it both funny and a little bit depressing.

Important Info About Your Tax Stimulus Money

The Federal Government is sending each and every one of us a $600 rebate. If we spend it at Walmart, the money will go to China. If we spend it on gasoline, the money will go to the Arabs. If we purchase a computer it will go to India. If we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras, and Guatemala. If we purchase a good car, it will go to Japan. If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan and none of it will help the American economy.

The only way to keep the money here at home is to spend it on prostitutes, weed, beer, and tattoos since these are the only products still produced in the USA.

Thank you for your help and please support the USA.

We all know that the better weed and beer come from foreign sources. So drink plenty of California wine and support local restaurants.
