math 911

I always like the story of the Pennsylvania High Patrol that had a little girl in a car he was passing on the Pennsylvania turnpike flash him a crayon sign saying "Help Me".

Sure he'd stumbled upon a child abduction, it took him about an hour to get enough unmarked cars to surround the subject car before they could make a traffic stop.

Inside, they found two exasperated parents, a devil of a little girl who's mom, angry at too many "Are we there yet"s, had given her some paper, crayons and the command to "amuse yourself".

Some kid did that on a school bus ... in Israel. Suffice to say no one was amused.

All levity asside, the real 911 math goese something like -

The president gives the miltary $400 billions each year for 4 years, then $460 billions for two more years plus $147 billions to support the "Surge" and another $50 billions for his friends at Haliburton.

If the president then sends 160,000 troops to Iraq and kills 3847 of them, how long will it take al-Malaki to put his government together?







I know. Story problems are always hard. :rolleyes:

Too funny. When I was a kid we used to call telephone information and ask them stuff. I think they answered because it broke up their day and amused them. That was before it cost money to call info.
