[StBernard] How Bad **IS** the Economy?

[Westley Annis]

To add my two cents to this one:

The economy is so bad...
...women are having sex with men again because they can't afford the
batteries for their vibrators.

On a more serious note, I stopped at the Home Depot's in Kenner and Slidell
today. Both stores were empty in comparison to six months ago.

Business has shriveled up in this area.
