Made Me Chortle

Postby shinnosuke » Wed Jul 27, 2011 7:58 am

First, when is the last time you read the word "chortle"? Wait, is it possible to digress before my own post even gets started? I think I just did.

There is a website called Before The Tape which is focused on economic news. One of the articles there is entitled: Amazingly US Consumers Still Broke Despite Record Wall Street Bonuses

Doesn't that just tell the whole story of the dastardly deeds of the Federal Reserve and the stiff arm that has been applied to the face of the average US citizen? I like the twist of the dagger of that headline.

I'm chortling as I type this. Actually a cross between a chortle and guffaw.

While chortling at this I think I may have filled my britches with a little feculence.

We are grateful that your posts are not of the scratch and sniff variety.
