(kudos if you know where i got this joke from.) a number on a piece of paper is worth more to most people than gold or silver. (if that's not a sign of a bad economy i don't know what is.) power companies are paying people to use electricity. "happy hour" is all day every day. prostitution is the number 1 profession.
