So I Lied...A Serious Post About the Economy

Alright so I didn't exactly give up on blogging today...i am recovering from the shock that was last night...slowly.

I'm going to take a quick turn to an issue we haven't discussed yet here on BS. Everywhere, especially in New York, the economy sucks. I mean, its horrible. It's the most important issue in the 2008 election - Joe the Plumber anyone? The financial district and midtown NYC have been given a facelift, for better or worse, and things aren't looking up anytime soon. (So they tell me anyways, I'm really just regurgitating information. I don't know shit about the economy.)

One thing that I do know, and that we all know, is that the state of the economy is certainly not going to get any s0rt of quick fix without a little outside-the-box thinking. My plan from the outset of the economic downturn has been to capitalize on the philanthropic spirit of America's most publicly revered asset: our celebrities. Just think - if the fed or some high-ranking government officials were able to convince Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to make a sex tape for global distribution in order to kick-start our economy, it would sell like hot cakes. Millions of people would be interested in this - it would defy gender, race, sexual orientation. I mean, everyone would watch that. My mom would watch that. And that doesn't even gross me out. It would be natural.

The Nailin' Palin experiment is a cute idea, but honestly? Fuck that shit. Brad and Angelina would dominate that little film.

I know that sooner or later some government higher-ups will come knocking on my door to borrow my idea, if they don't just steal that shit outright. I know this, because there are absolutely no flaws in my plan. Brad and Angelina having sex on film would automatically vault U.S. back into the #1 spot. It's soooooo obvious.

In the meantime, we continue to suffer. So I offer this piece of advice to all my friends in the finance world: HAHAHAHA SUCKAS YOU WENT TO FOUR YEARS OF COLLEGE AND STUDIED SOME BORING ASS SHIT BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO MAKE YOU STACK PAPER. DOESNT SEEM LIKE THE BEST IDEA RIGHT NOW DOES IT? SUCKS TO BE YOU. (If that rant just pissed you off, I would recommend not clicking on the link.)
