Go to the article site to see the graphs that were left out here.
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition is in...
The New at The Top of the Hour told me this is good news, so I will believe that. Thinking is too hard.
I’m not an MIT math professor or a Harvard business professor but...if part-time employment INCREASED by 360 thousand and full-time employment DECREASED by 240 thousand how can TOTAL employment increase by 195 thousand rather than 120 thousand?
First time I saw it I spat out what I was drinking when the Dude spat out his White Russian when Julianne Moore explained she was trying to conceive. Think I bit my tongue, too.
“Let me explain something to you. Um, I am not “Mr. Lebowski”. You’re Mr. Lebowski. I’m the Dude. So that’s what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you’re not into the whole brevity thing.”
LOL!!! Gawd I could do this all day, if’n I didn’t have other things to get to ....eventually.
I wish I could post the compendium vid of liberal use of the word Fk but, that’d probably earn me a time out for a few days.
I think Lebowski holds the record or is in the top three for their use of it.
I don’t know for sure, but if I had to guess, it is because individuals who obtain two or more part-time jobs only count once in labor participation stats.
Obama math. Sort of like the $2500 savings per year the average family of 4 will have under ObamaCare.
Wouldn’t that work the other way?
I never get tired of that movie. So many great lines, and Walter Sobchack was the best.
It’s on this Sunday at 5:oopm.
I just hit reecawred...
I knew this would be a numbers game. Think our representatives will use this to educate the low information voter? why aren’t they advertising this NOW!
The Big Lebowski: Are you employed, sir?
The Dude: Employed?
The Big Lebowski: You don’t go out looking for a job dressed like that? On a weekday?
The Dude: Is this a…what day is this?
Obviously your not a golfer.
