"it's a scam. Don't fall for it"... sure wish somebody had told our brilliant politicians that.
Oh, those are good! Sadly, the bigger the crisis, the more fodder the stand-up comedians have for their act.
big hugs xoxo
Sad, isn't it? Boy so many of those ring true. I chuckled at the Nigeria one.
Nice pict
Those are all so sadly true. And pretty funny too. I know I got a good chuckle out of them. Have yourself a terrific Tues. Sandee.
These are great. The worse times get, the more the comedians have to work with. Sad but true.
I'm glad that we can still keep our humor. Soon enough it will be all we have left :(
Have a great hump day, Sandee! :)
We might as well laugh at our economy cuz we danged sure can't change DC...until next November!
Big hugs, honey...
Pretty much says it for us too.
We have to look for the funny in everything if we want to enjoy life :)
lol sums it up hun!..xxoo
Thanks for the laughs. If I didn't laugh at the truths in these jokes I'd be crying.
These made me laugh Sandee but they give us serious food for thought! I hope your Wednesday is going well. I have been having a hard time with internet problems but it is not acting up too badly for now. Take care.
Well at least our government is supplying the comedians with lots of material
I think I should go shopping on Wal Mart Street.
I am loving the Nigerian one.
Wonderful. I love Leno.
Jay Leno hit it right on the button. I'm amazed that those crooked bankers, and stockbrokers have mostly managed to stay out of jail...
