DDA Chapter 13

[bethbuchall]

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you will have $49.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you will have $33.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you will have $0.00 today.

But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for a recycling refund, you will have received $214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401- Keg.

A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means that, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.


Makes you proud to be an American.

We've done too much of the former and not enough of the latter.

Too bad I don't drink beer

okay Vicki, I just had to go into our local Starbucks store and they had the Halloween bear. His pumpkin outfit was just the cutest, so I had to get it. It is a little more tight than the one that Chuckie already has, but it was so darn cute.

ooooh, I get better miles per gallon!!

They read the beer can thing on the radio this morning.
Do you know how many years it would take for me to drink a GALLON of alcohol?

We have 2 fridges & one deep freezer....(yes I buy in bulk)

Never mind.

I just went to Sam's. I remembered an accessory kit DH wanted for his cameras, so I got that for his birthday. I also got a cake. Mmmmm. Cake!

I'm not sure what time to expect DH today. I am hoping he will be headed home when I pick up DS, because Princess REALLY wants to have cake with him. She is all about birthdays - mine, hers, anybody else's - it's all good as far as she's concerned.

We have a workman in now to hang a garage door & fix the fireproofing under the stairs...Just told me $900 for a few hours work.

I should have been a carpenter.....

 

[Pooh67_68]

Elizabeth, Happy Birthday to your DH.

I forgot to tell you all that my child and her bandmates decided last week that I am their write in choice for President of the United States.

Their reasoning you ask?

a) I am the band mom that feeds them
b) I am old enough
c) and Cassidy told them I'd been on the PTO long enough








I could never be a politician....I actually answer questions

[Pooh67_68]

[Pooh67_68]

$900 to hang a garage door and do a little fireproofing? I think ya need a second opinion.

 

[Pooh67_68]

[Pooh67_68]
