How do you fix the economy?

An interesting forward to fix the US economy ……

There was an article in the St. Petersburg Times newspaper last Sunday. The Business Section asked readers for ideas on “How Would You Fix The Economy?”

Here’s what one guy wrote back:

Dear Mr.President,

There are about 40 million people over the age of 50 in the work force. Pay each of them $1 million as severance with the following stipulations:

1) They leave their jobs. Forty million job openings – Unemployment fixed.

2) They buy NEW American cars. Forty million cars ordered – Auto Industry fixed.

3) They either buy a house or pay off their mortgage – Housing Crisis fixed.

All this and it’s still cheaper than the “bailout”!

Indian elections 2009 & my disappointments

Scenario1(as I wished): The formidable Ex FM and Later HM should be defeated, but the UPA should retain Power, was my expectations. As he might be willing to add a few Cess’s, Surcharges and many such quirky names and taxes to the already burdened community.

Scenario 2 (as I prayed): The even more formidable MKA should win the Constituency (I know even if I wish he’ll not loose, so whats the point) but the UPA should not form the government and our Hero sitting in the opposition benches. Now you know where my disappointments stem from ……

Favourite pastimes ….

After a long hiatus, back to writing about a few opf my favourite pastimes ….

I’ve always wanted to play tennis is childhood days, and always i used dream about myself as a great tennis champ during my school times. As a matter of fact, i’ve not greatly participated, nor excelled, nor even attempted to learn professionally a sport so far. Leave alone play and win.

But that desire in mind has helped me in creating a cruel pastime, which is killing mosquitoes by a wonderful Chinese made device.

As many of you now know i’m not a great writer, forget it, not even a writer when reading my blogs and its posts. This was anchored and continues in me even till now, so my writing skills with a pen (especially) is a big question mark. So i use the pens i retain after using (in other words flicking) for cleaning the nails, cleaning the ears (as buds) …. would soon run a contest for all of you to list the other fringe benefits of a ballpoint pen.

Want to know more …. Buddy wait nah, not everything in one go.

Wallstreet Humour – 2

Actually i subscribe to this idea, once they ridiculed that the state controls and now many wants a bail-out from the same setup.

Ummm ….. they”ll again not learn from this too !!!

Many top executives run behind numbers and various goals inspite of not subscribing to the actual idea / path their organisation takes or voicing their concerns about the weak fundamentals or Nil fundamentals on which they are treaded upon.

Wallstreet Humour

More to come …..
