My Morning with B

When B and I read the morning newspaper together, B likes to do a kind of news broadcast. She gives out-loud excerpts, summaries, and news analysis -- complete with expletives, gasps and outcries.

This morning, it was the fact that average personal credit card debt in the U.S. has reached $9,000 per person. It is pretty horrific, I agree.

The overall effect is something like this:

Comments:
the woman on the left appears to be wearing $9000 worth of makeup and hairstyling, so I guess she has used up her monthly credit quota.
 
and apropos of nothing at all:

if you missed it on SNL a few weeks ago. A brilliant Bob Smigel cartoon on "Christmastime for the Jews."

Stop everything and watch this (about two minutes) and then tell me how hard you are laughing.
