10 Things I Think...

It's been awhile since I last posted here and I'm due for an update. Here goes with 10 Things I Think. Of course, this type of a list is likely to change daily, but I won't update it daily. Without further ado, here goes....

1. March Madness is just around the corner and there is no better time of the year.

2. This coming on the heels of one of the best Super Bowls ever. 2008 was a great year for sports, and 2009 might eclipse it.

3. Is there a more arrogant and clueless group of people than Wall Street executives? $1 million to redecorate an office? Are you f*cking kidding me?

4. Speaking of Wall Street genuises, just how big is this mess they've got us into? If you spent $1 million per day, every day, since the time of Jesus Christ, you would have spent an amount of money equal to about 1/3 of the money Tim Geithner says we need to bail out the banks.

5. Speaking of which, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner is clearly in over his head.

6. Is there a more poisonous politician today than Nancy Pelosi? I think she's in a race with Mr. Geithner to see who can sink Mr. Obama's presidency first. This woman clearly doesn't deserve to be anywhere near a leadership position.

7. Strange as this sounds, the best Mexican food I have ever eaten was in Chicago, the best barbeque was in a gas station and the best steak was in Las Vegas.

8. I am not surprised that Alex Rodriguez used steroids. My question is why did he stop taking them every October?

9. The Economist is the best magazine in the world. Period.

10. It's 5 o'clock somewhere.
