Stimulus Bonanza!

With like a trillion in spending being proposed, how much more money does that mean for you? $13 a week. Cool beans! I’m going to spend me stimulus on extra comic book consumption. What will you spend it on?

  1. Me? I’m going to either spend it on manga, new liqueurs, and saving up for a vacation. In case you don’t know, mangas are Japanese comic books. Frank, I highly recommend you pick up Berserk ( http://www.amazon.com/Berserk-Vol-1-Kentaro-Miura/dp/1593070209/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234540028&sr=8-1 ). Just don’t bother looking for it at Barnes & Noble. They don’t carry it because it’s too awesome for them.

  2. I kind of assumed it was veggies, Jimmy…..but there was a voice in my head that said an altered state of conscoiusness might be a good idea the next few years. I thought maybe my voice spoke to you as well. 🙂

  3. Frank… I think you nailed it right when you said… “Cool beans!” Break out the old crock pots folks and get use to cooking dried bean and corn bread. Wait all the corn is going in my gas tank now… corn meal is expensive now too.

  4. I was going to say seeds but Jimmy said it first, but anyway, after the first few weeks of seeds for vegetables, every week until 2099 I would save for a downpayment for a little bitty brick house with a patch of dirt and sunshine to plant the seeds in.

  5. We must all buy windows, even if we don’t need them, they obviously will be used in the near future. Get ones with money back guarantees. And from a company that has government preservatives all over it would be choice.

  6. Maybe if all those stimulus jobs saving the San Francisco Salt Marsh Harvest Mouse are taken, thousands of Californians may still be able to find employment in President Obama’s soon to be announced poppy growing demonstration project. The stimulus bill provides for $2.4 Billion to clean up that messy Afghan opium cartel by starting up domestic production in the USA in order to eliminate the middleman and put Afghani poppy growers out of business. Since we will be buying local and saving carbon credits on the shipping costs, this will qualify the business for green tax credits as well. These will be good high-paying government subsidized farming jobs, which means that no poppies will actually be grown and no heroin will actually be produced. Nevertheless all federal agencies that are involved in the investigation of drug smuggling will have their manpower and operating budgets doubled. Also the fledging US opium business will be eligible for a bailout in 6 months.

  7. A local gunshop here has 50 rnd 9mm 9.95 a box, 25 rnd 357 9.95 a box, 20 rnd 223 (5.56 NATO for those in Rio Linda) 9.95 a box, 500 rnd 22 rim-fire 9.95 a box & a pack of 5 empty sandbags for 1.99. Considering sales tax, I’m buying a box of ammo & 5 sandbags everyweek by the 2010 election I should be ready for the revolution … still haven’t found a good source of .45 (long) Colt any ideas?

  8. #39 – SGT USMC,
    Buy a reloading press and stock up on powder, primers, dies and molds.
    You can get used tire balance weights at your friendly neighborhood tire store for free when you get your tires rotated.
    An electric furnace to melt the weights is good but a coleman stove and a cast iron kettle and a dipper works almost as well.
    For higher velocity rounds you’ll probably want to use copper jacketed slugs but for pistol work lead cast slugs are fine.
    For muzzle loaders you’ll need to use pure lead because tire weights are too hard.
    You can get bars of it at plumbing supply stores.
    Depending on how long the seige lasts, a book on flint napping and arrow fletching might come in handy.
    (If God hadn’t meant for us to have weapons, he wouldn’t have given us opposable thumbs!)

  9. HA! No employed conservative will actually see a $13/wk increase. Any supposed increase will be offset by raised taxes, rising inflation, and government interference in all aspects of life/business. Don’t forget, Pres. Omarx said this is just the beginning of his plan to change America into a third world communist cesspool. The democraps have just started stealing from you and violating your constitutional rights. On the other hand, focusing on the fantasy of an extra $13/wk (unicorn) might help prevent paralyzing feelings of despair. I recommend buying lots of buckets, and scattering them around your home as a hi-tech defense against the coming Barackalypse.

  10. I will be spending my $400 on a new pistol, preferably a glock .40 caliber, a bottle of Old Crow, pure MDA, and some chemical mace; not that weak pepper spray garbage that doesn’t make you vomit violently upon contact.

    Wait, I am over spending; but that’s ok. If those pederasts up in the Swamp can do it, dammit this is Amerika, and so and so can I! SI SE PUEDE PEOPLE!

    Cazart!
