REHASHED AND ANCIENT 12/31/10

finally, i went to kim jong il's barber shop for a haircut. haven't been there for many a moon as i've patronized other places searching for a good fast haircut. much to my surprise the place is in other hands. there was no one there i had ever seen before, i think. they must have been there for quite awhile as the conversation with other customers seemed friendly and familiar. anyway, in about two weeks my hair will grow back. right now i look like a river-kwai pow.

on my rounds yesterday i stopped off at target for some stuff and discovered why we are in recession. surprise! surprise! the cause of the recession is that cheap bastard american businesses do not hire enough people. the checkout lines were long; prices were mismarked; and the price scanners on the floor did not work. i'm sure everything is working properly in baghdad.

all this is encouraged by wall street toadies and congressional and government policies.

am i going to wish you a happy new year? no, you may have whatever kind of year you want. you're on your own.
