The bailout has failed to be passed and the stock market has dropped 600 points.

What you could do with $700,000,000,000

• Give every person in the US $2,300 or give every household $6,200.
• Pay the income taxes of every American who makes $500,000 or less a year.
• Fully fund the Defense, Treasury, Education, State Veterans Affairs and Interior departments next year, as well as NASA.
• Buy gasoline for every car in the US for 16 months.
• Buy every NFL, NBA, and MLB team and build each one a new stadium - and pay your players $191 million a piece for a year
• Create the 17th largest economy in the world - roughly equal to that of the Netherlands.
• Or you could pay off just 7% of the $9.8 trillion national debt.

OR you could nationalize some mortgage related debt (aka “impaired assets”) that banks, credit unions, and pension funds hold. Using our tax dollars, of course. (via What I Learned)

Gilligan’s Island
Years ago, CBS had a popular little series called GILLIGAN’S ISLAND. There is, however, a dark secret about this “comedy” you may never have realized.

The island is a direct representation of hell. Nobody on the island wants to be there, yet none are able to leave.

Each one of the characters represents one of the 7 deadly sins:

- Ginger represents LUST - she wears skimpy outfits, is obsessed with her looks, and is a borderline nymphomaniac.

- Mary Ann represents ENVY - she is jealous of Ginger’s beauty.

- The Professor represents PRIDE - he is an annoying know-it-all.

- Mr. Howell represents GREED - no explanation needed.

- Mrs. Howell represents SLOTH - she has never lifted a finger to help on and of their escape plans.

- The Skipper represents two sins: GLUTTONY - again, no explanation needed and ANGER - he violently hits Gilligan on each show.

- This leaves Gilligan. Gilligan is the person who put them there. He prevents them from leaving by foiling all of their escape plots. Also, it is HIS island. Therefore, Gilligan is SATAN.

Crazy? He does wear red in every episode…

This is a great read. Anyone who knows me in person knows that this is something I am definitely all about. For those who don’t know, Warren Buffet is America’s richest person. He recently overtook Bill Gates due to fluctuations in the stock market.

According to a very poor source, it is going to happen starting in the Summer of 2009. I will believe it when a reputable news source says something about it, but I am posting this so everyone doesn’t send me this link constantly.

What are those web sites that you check when you fire up your browser? What are the web sites you check on a daily basis, what are those you check on an hourly basis? Many of mine are in the links section, but I am more curious about what my viewers are looking at regularly. Leave links in the comments.
