    Now imagine for a moment that you live where it costs $8.80 per gallon, and your truck only gets 3.5 mpg

    That is to bad for Jamie Dimon. He will probably get his salary cut to 30 million a year instead of 35 million... then again probably not. He will get a raise. Who am I kidding.

    Did he mean "depression"? Last I checked, a recession was two negative quarters in a row, and we're already past that.

    A recession is when your neighbor is out of work.
    A depression is when you are out of work.

    You mean the guy that said: "Two words: Made in America" That guy?? They better change the definition even harder, 'cause it didn't work. Or are they talking about the guy that spent two minutes calling for a dead person? Or was it the guy that was late to the Queen's funeral? Or was it the guy that tripped UP the stairs three times in a row?

    Having a stutter sucks.
