So, just how bad is the economy?

Cowdad sends this along...badum-ching!



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?"  
 
If the bank returns your check marked, "Insufficient Funds," you have to call them and ask if they mean 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 and Malibu are firing their nannies and learning their childrens' names. 

  A truckload of Americans was 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.
 
And, finally... 
I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, and our bleak future, that I called the Suicide Hotline and was connected to a call center in Pakistan .   When I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked if I could drive a truck...
