Look, My family completely abandoned the US financial system and didn’t let the door hit ’em where the good Lord split ’em. We used token currencies growing up. I had my allowance paid in marzipan, which I tried to use to get into a big-time college. I WAS REJECTED. So, I saddled up my brother and high-tailed it to the Macon county line. I WAS A WAITRESS FOR 47 years. I DON’T BLAME The GOVERNMENT. I have a rare blood-sugar disease and need to “harvest” teeth and beads to sell to “artistic” college students just to support my addiction to Jewish literature of the diaspora. I BLAME NO ONE. I have no idea how the stocks crashed, I assume the bookcase was not sturdy? Please send pears. I have all the warmth I need from self-assurance. I AM THE 100% and I’m sticking to it.
