    the beauty of this is that it’s a few years old.

    what a novel solution – but that’s not the American solution… the American solution is to spend MORE to re-double your way out of the problem!

    heh, I saw that one originally, though I rarely watch. What a hoot. I had a big smile.

    I read the book and didn’t understand it either….Don’t they have one of those Don’t by Stuff You Can’t Afford for Dummies Books? I got one that says Stock Investing for Dummies and only managed to lose half my shirt this time….

    This will go down in SNL history as one of the funniest skits (Alongside “I need more Cowbell and “D*ck in a Box”)….classic….and it IT IS a few year old. It interesting how the satirists/humorists are always a little ahead of the times…
