It's a rainy Saturday afternoon and I'm kicking back in my recliner watching an Avril Lavigne concert on Palladia. I know what you're thinking ... I spend too much time in my recliner! Or where you thinking that it's odd that a man close to 40 years old is watching an Avril Lavigne concert? OK, maybe a little ... but I can't find the remote AND she's HOT plus she is actually pretty good. I will admit I DO like some of her music.So how did I end up watching an Avril concert? This is how...
I was flipping through the typical Saturday afternoon TV shows and landed on one of the news / talk stations. There was a story about some really rich guy who has lost millions due to our ... what are they calling it today ... recession? No that's not it ... depression? Nope ... Economy "downturn" I believe is the latest angle. Sounds much less frightening doesn't it?
Any-whoot ... so there's this rich guy who lost millions due to the downturn and he committed suicide. The story went on to say that this is becoming a much more common thing ... rich people who lose their money and then kill themselves. THIS PISSES ME OFF! You mean you would rather be dead then have to live like us common folk? What are you afraid you might have to shop at Target? Maybe catch a blue light special at K-mart? Does the thought of eating at Applebees scare you so much you decide it's better just to end it all? WTF, Applebees isn't that bad! See that's the nice thing about being broke - the recession, er, "downturn" doesn't even really effect me - I was already broke.
The news/talk stuff was way too depressing so I continued to flip through the channels and came across the Avril concert. You have to admit Avril IS much cuter than Greta Van Susteren. Where the remote has gone is still a mystery to me but one I will have to solve later ... the Pussycat Dolls concert on Palladia starts in 5 minutes!
