    The economy is so bad that...

    The economy is so bad that:

    I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.

    I ordered a burger at McDonald's and the kid behind the counter asked,"Can you afford fries with that?"

    CEO's are now playing miniature golf.

    If the bank returns your check marked "Insufficient Funds," you call them and ask if they meant you or them.

    Hot Wheels and Matchbox stocks are trading higher than GM.

    McDonald's is selling the 1/4 ouncer.

    Parents in Beverly Hills fired their nannies and learned their children's names.

    A truckload of Americans was caught sneaking into Mexico .

    Dick Cheney took his stockbroker hunting.

    Motel Six won't leave the light on anymore.

    My economy is so bad that if steamboats were a dime a dozen, all I could do is run up and down the levee hollering "Ain't that cheap!"

      I'm so broke I can't even pay ATTENTION!

                I'm so broke, I can't afford to get in a fight unless it's a free-for-all.

                    My mom used to say, "I'm so broke I can't afford a pay toilet." And I do remember those...
