The day before an agreement was reached the misses asked me to explain some details as to what the fiscal cliff is. The next day she and I were talking and I said, "remember how you were asking my about the fiscal cliff yesterday?" Her: "yeah" Me: "They reached an agreement today. Long story short, it means $80 less in your paychecks and an extra 2% taxes on my quarterlies." Her: "what the (*&$#"

Most of the guys I work with were bitching about smaller checks this week..
One of the younger guys who is always making remarks about me listening to political talk radio all the time says to me,
"My check is less this week, all thanks to Obama care"
I just laughed at him !
Sad thing is that pretty much sums up the younger generation today !
