The economy is so bad that ...

· I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.

· I ordered a burger at McDonald's and the kid behind the
counter asked, "Can you afford fries with that?"

· CEOs are now playing miniature golf.

· If the bank returns your check marked "Insufficient Funds,"
you call them and ask if they meant you or them.

· Hot Wheels and Matchbox stocks are trading higher than GM.

· McDonald's is selling the 1/4 ouncer.

· Parents in Beverly Hills fired their nannies and learned
their children's names.

· A truckload of Americans were caught sneaking into Mexico .

· Dick Cheney took his stockbroker hunting.

· Motel Six won't leave the light on anymore.

· The Mafia is laying off judges.

· Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen.

· Congress says they are looking into this Bernie Madoff
scandal. Oh Great!! The guy who made $50-Billion disappear is being
investigated by the people who made $1.5-Trillion disappear!

And, finally...

· I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy,
wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I
called the Suicide Lifeline. I got a call center in Pakistan , and
when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked if I
could drive a truck.

It reminded me of the new business logos that were published after the "official" announcement of the crisis...
