Laundry done, apartment cleaned, errands ran. It's Friday night and I am headed to the dive bars. It's the first of the month and all the government checks have gone out which means society's fringe dwellers will be out as well. I remember one greasy old guy showing off his Krugerrands to me. He looked like he had been dressed out of a Goodwill grab bag and hadn't shaved in three days. He told me he just got in to town after a Greyhound bus trip from Denver. I was wondering if there was anybody in Denver laying dead in a pool of their own blood with their Krugerrands gone.
Staying home tonight - not sure if I want to write something or read Barron's or read a book. Any of those things are better than sitting in a bar getting drunk and talking like a goddam idiot. God must find my stupidity and drunkenness amusing; perhaps that's why he hasn't allowed me to be stabbed to death by other drunken bar patrons.
Consider the fact the USPS is the most efficient govt agency losing a mere 25m a day this makes sense. *sarcasm*.
The Fed spends over 10b a day, every little bit helps.

I have that gnawing feeling that somehow, somewhere, some bank is going to make money on the float from not cashing a check an extra day. Know what I'm sayin....
