Some of you may have seen this. I got it from a friend.
"Back in 1990, the Government seized the Mustang Ranch brothel in Nevada for tax evasion and, as required by law, tried to run it. They failed and it closed. Now we are trusting the economy of our country and our banking system to the same idiots who couldn't make money running a whore house and selling whiskey!"

But also the guys that have been running the banking system can run the banking system either.  What are ya gonna do?  Invest in brothels and whiskey maybe!!!  :-)

LOL, that kind of puts it into perspective now doesn't it. Can't make money selling the two top selling items, wow. Maybe we should just give them another chance.

John with those 2 "products" who can be trusted in selling them.  Whiskey is good but p---- is better!!! I think it you would be lucky just to break even.  Put them for sale in the same place........forget it I can't think about this anymore, I'm married.  LOL
