In these troubled times, we Americans need to remember that a penny saved is a penny earned. Not only are a fool and his money quickly separated, but a bird in hand is worth two in the bush leagues. When push comes to shove, remember to raise your spirits by lifting with your legs. We don't need another hero to pull us up by our bootstraps. Each of us has to buckle down and cowboy up. Drastic times call for drastic measures, so make sure to carefully portion out equal parts piss and vinegar and take your medicine. Tastes like chicken.
I know so many of you have concerns that we have fallen off the cliff, but we will fly like eagles when we allow our spirits to soar. Don't waste another minute of your time when there are only so many hours in the day. The end may be nigh, but every ending is a new beginning and the grass is always greener on the dark side of a blue moon. Of course, an object at rest tends to stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force, so it's time to grease the big wheels if we want to keep on turning.
That will be 800 billion dollars, please.

Paul- After watching Slumdog Millionaire I will always be reminded of how the very poorest beggar here in the US is living in luxury compared to the slums of India and what those orphans do to survive yet even they survive, it is human nature that when we are pushed as low as you can go, that we know how to survive, it is innate within each of us. We only know this about ourselves when faced with trials and tribulation. If everything is honkey dorey all the time, and everything is handed to us, and someone is always trying to protect us from hitting bottom, we never know the true strength that is within us. Let it fall, let it fail, let it take its natural course just like the seasons. Because once it hits bottom it has no way to go but up.
