    This could be like one of those optical illusion picture things. where you're staring blankly at it and your best friend Wayne is shouting at you "How can you not see the face? For god's sake, all I can see is the face". And after about five straight minutes of you staring and Wayne shouting, you decide that your best recourse is simply to punch Wayne in the face and find another best friend.

    Also my knowledge of finances basically consists of can afford/cannot afford/ cannot afford but fuck it I'm buying it anyway. The last one is probably my feminine side talking.
    Wayne?

    Where does all this leave Meg?


    One of the things about financial stuff is the wizards - that doesn't include me - never want you to conclude common-sense is adequate to suss the basics; short version is, if it smells like bullshit, that's what it is.

    Accurate speculations are easier to make than most think.


    Back to Wayne for a bit - let Meg smack him if he wants to...

    Let me educate you a bit then. True Canadians ie not Shay ie really not Shay have the ability to speak to elk, are eight feet tall except when they don't want to be and are named Wayne. This includes the women.
    I've heard that from lots of Canadians.

    Not-so-oddly, none of your imported truck drivers have absorbed these facts.

    Work on that, will you?

    That's in California, where your purchasing power is a direct function of your Q rating, nothing else.

    Also, as a member of the entertainment industry, he's not required to actually pay for anything.

    Well then.

    Idol is a pleasure; an unprepossessing Canadian Seal with extended - though slightly undertaxed - cranial capacity.

    You must have done something to offend him.

    Of course, nothing will rile the innocent like a righteous Conservative from Canada.

    ​Canadians aren't supposed to watch Foxnews, you see...

    If Q rating were a good judge of anything then Bill Cosby wouldn't have had the highest one ever.
