[Still Thinking]

This $700 billion heist has all the tactics used on a cheap used car lot. How many times have we heard from some turd trying to sell us something that it was IMPORTANT that we buy something NOW?!...otherwise bad things are going to happen!

That was exactly the analogy I used to explain the situation to Mrs. Thinking. Don't forget the Patriot Act too. "Someone flew planes into a couple buildings, quick, quick, we need to repeal the Constitution and give the goobermint more power. Right the hell Now!"

Anytime somebody tells me that I have to do something NOW, I come to a dead stop and put some thought to it.

I've told this to nearly everybody I know. I tell them that the only two (broad) exceptions are that the building is on fire, or somebody is shooting at me. They sometimes laugh, but I'm dead serious.
