Stop being responsible, and get yourself into government housing. Once there, you will be eligible for:<br /><br />2. Food stamps. Not only will the government put a roof over your head, they will feed you, too. What a country!<br /><br />3. Make sure you apply for welfare, and/or unemployment insurance. Since your roof over your head and food in your belly is covered, you can use this easy scratch for walking around money, to include going on cruises.<br /><br />IMPORTANT NOTE: you gotta keep voting Democrats into office for this to work out, and you absolutely must ignore those evil Republicans howling about the massive hole of debt we're digging ourselves into by giving hard working American dollars to slacking, no account moochers. <br /><br />Bon voyage, Joe. When you're in Cancun, smoke a Cuban Cohiba for me, won't you? You can use some of that Uncle Sam-provided walkin' around money to snag one, piece o' cake.Freddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10778430453468720627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4302795000497411021.post-85607548463913327792010-10-21T06:44:00.664-07:002010-10-21T06:44:00.664-07:00Kid:

I am always curious as to what these cruise ship lines are thinking when they steam up and down the African coast near Somalia, begging to be harrassed by pirates. Maybe they include pirate attacks as part of the shipboard activities, and people pay for that.Freddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10778430453468720627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4302795000497411021.post-48221815201871495702010-10-21T06:41:00.227-07:002010-10-21T06:41:00.227-07:00Kid:
