Eight is more than enough

“Eight is more than enough,” said Meghan Daum in the Chicago Tribune. Last week’s news that Nadya Suleman, 33, had given birth to eight healthy babies was broken by “grinning doctors” at a California hospital who seemed to want medals for their accomplishment, “but this should not be a cause for celebration.” What started as a feel-good human-interest story “quickly curdled into an ethical morass,” said Sarah Hepola in Salon.com, as it emerged that Suleman is not only unmarried and unemployed—inconvenient, when your annual diaper bill alone is $7,000—but has six children already.
Does that really make her crazy? said Brian Reid in WashingtonPost.com. Granted, most of us wouldn’t want 14 kids, but it’s not my job—or yours—to decide on “an acceptable number” for some other person.

Yes it is mine and the countries best interest to be able to tell this person she cannot have more kids. I mean come on. 14? What are you some kind of Angelina Jolie freak? How can she possibly think she is going to be able to take care of these kids without govt help.

WHAT?

"We have a hard-earned reputation for frugality, not extravagance," said Ken Lewis, CEO of Bank of America

What? Excuse me. Did those words just come out of your mouth?

Bonds -- Asbury Bond going on sale.

I have decided to start selling bonds. The government and businesses get to do it. So can I. Effective March1st 2009 I will be offering 100 bonds for sale. Starting bids begin at $100,000 each. Here are the terms. You will be paid back in 40 years*. The yield will be 8%*. Now because I might be dead and not have saved the money needed to pay back the investors my estate will have the option to sell more bonds to pay back the first ones. In fact I may do this throughout my life when ever I need money. I think these bonds are going to be the wave of the future and you won't want to miss out of such a great opportunity. How can I ensure you will see a return? I can't. Neither can the government. So all you suckers out there get in touch with me and I'll tell you how to send payment. I only accept cash.



* Look, a little star to tell me everything is misleading and foolish and you will not be making any money.
