They were a gift. :D

not the episode with the old peddler, there was another where a man put on a pair he found and took the personality/identity of that man (gangster). It didn't end well for him either.

things have been tough on tabs since the fez and monogrammed slipper market dried up.

if monocle polish falls out of favor, he is really going to be in trouble.

You are screwed.

When your global meltdown comes to pass that pension will be history since they are invested in bonds and stocks. With all your "wisdom" you will be just as broke as the rest of us...

Most economists believe the United States will tip into recession by 2021, a new survey shows, despite White House insistence the economy is sound.

Nearly 3 out of 4 economists surveyed by the National Association for Business Economics expect a recession by 2021, according to poll results released Monday. The outlook reflects growing skepticism among economists and investors that the U.S. economy will be able to withstand a protracted trade war with China without serious harm amid a weakening global outlook.
