Ok so this was suppose to be funny but when I was writing it.  Suddenly it sounded to real for me.  It sounded like all the people in the world today.  I was talking to Faith's teacher the other day.  She goes to a public school.  She told me that over 53% of the kids are on reduced or free lunches.  It got me to thinking about this list.  What is happening to people nowadays?  We spend and spend and spend.  Now we are all sitting in the same boat with this economy.  There is no such thing as middle class anymore.  You either are rich or you are poor.  Simple and sweet.

Just my thoughts for the day.
