Hey Jay-
Just had to say how much I love the site.
You have a way with words and I love the way you think.
The world needs more intelligent bloggers like you.
Rock on, my man.
I will return . . .

Hi Uncle Jay:

I guess the Congress members and senators passed a porkulus bill without reading it. Uncle Jay, did they use Cliff Notes? Wow, they had to pass this spending bill so we wouldn’t discover what’s in it and vote against them. Besides, Speaker Nancy Pelosi had to take a junket to Italy with 7 of her favorite Democratic friends…gosh, I wouldn’t want to delay her goverment paid vacation. Can you explain junkets?

Heyy Uncle Jay,
You are really funny. My favorite part was about Christian Bale having a potty mouth. You putting that toilet bowl over his mouth was pure genius! You rock Uncle Jay!

Love,

I’m very confident that neither the government nor the banks can tell the difference between someone who can’t pay his mortgage due to hardship, and someone who can’t pay because he stupidly overextended himself, and someone who just doesn’t feel like paying for no particular reason. I don’t mind helping the unfortunate through charity, but I am extremely displeased with being forced to support the stupid, the dishonest, and those who just don’t give a damn.

The government is giving money to the banks that the banks claim will be used to make loans. To whom? Those that need loans are the ones that can’t qualify for them and the ones that can qualify don’t need loans. Besides, the banks already have enough money out in loans. That is, after all, part of why the country is in such a mess, right? What is needed is money to the people so that they can pay back the loans they already have. Of course, a few jobs wouldn’t hurt either. But I’m not sure bailing out big business will create those needed jobs. Am I in the wrong? Or in the minority? Or just in over my head?

My Dearest Uncle Jay……….

You have, once again, made me laugh.

I’ve heard that laughing can heal a wounded heart,
and extend our life-span by at least 20 years !!

Thanks Uncle Jay…..

Hi Uncle Jay:

Thank you for explaining the news. Now, President Obama said there is no pork or mark-ups in the stimulus package. Is he talking about pigs or marks-a-lot? I’m confused Uncle Jay… because there’s more pork in that bill then a hog farm…wow, I don’t think Mr. Obama is like Honest Abe. You help me?

Thanks,
Danny

Amazing how I can simply see the headlines on the newspapers each morning (of other commuters) and know what’s news worthy and important, then have it explained in 3 minutes on Monday morning (truly fair & balanced). Thanks Uncle Jay!
