Everything Must Go


At Crazy Eddies House of Liquid, the rock bottom isn’t rocky enough.

At Crazy Eddies House of Liquid the motto is simple and Beatleriffic
“You know we work all day”
”To get you money to buy you things”

3%? 2%?

Why not 1%

Why not 0%

After lining up taxpayers to prop up dodgy financial schemes at the front end…and taxpayers to bail the Select Few out when the pyramid folds at the back end...why not -2%?

Why not just shovel dollars out of the windows of the federal reserve and pay people to pick them up and spend them on Chinese toys and Saudi gas, while oil jumps to $160 dollars a barrel, and the Dow hits 16,000 for a full, furious, 20 seconds before auguring spectacularly into the Earth at relativistic speeds?

During these last, few tragic days of the Bush administration, everything remaining will be thrown onto the pyre.

Everything of value must go go go.

Into the sands of endless war in Iraq.

Or into pockets of the unimaginably wealthy.

Where's Crazy Bennie's Dog Spot?

Ya gotta have a dog Spot. It always worked for Cal Worthington.

Nine months or so to go. How low will it all go?

Limbo, lo? No?

And agreed Drifty, it's gonna get MUCH tougher than it is now.

Unemployment and homelessness will take HUGE upswings.

Stock up on the merlot, we're gonna need our comforts.

So, the Dow gained 420 points today. That answers the root question: What are these people smoking?

All we can do is watch and wait, if there is still a viable country left when this is said and done I will be surprised.
The house of cards is blowin' in the wind as we speak.
