Good times

By Capt. Fogg

Any time you meet a payment. - Good Times.
Any time you need a friend. - Good Times.
Any time you’re out from under.
Not getting hassled, not getting hustled.
Keepin’ your head above water,
Making a wave when you can.

"And I know that many of you here are watching how the United States government will address the problems in our financial system,"

said George W. Bush in his last speech before the United Nations as President of the United States Tuesday. Having been buffeted by questions from all corners as to what he was going to do about the disaster he and his party had so assiduously worked for all these years, he reassured the world:

I am confident we will act in the urgent time frame required.

Did anyone ask why the hell he didn't do something eight years ago? Why did his party continue the easy credit rip-off, the supply side shell game, the deficit spending, the deregulation, the tax cuts at the time of the most expensive war in 63 years? Did anyone need to?

Temporary lay offs. - Good Times.
Easy credit rip offs. - Good Times.
Scratchin’ and surviving. - Good Times.
Hangin in a chow line. - Good Times.
Ain’t we lucky we got ‘em. - Good Times.
