The Price Is Right

If you've ever seen the classic game show, "The Price Is Right" then you know it's right up there with Disneyworld as being one of the happiest places on Earth. While watching it today, I took note of how everyone congratulates and hugs the person who is called down to be a contestant. Every one is cheering and screaming like 10 year old girls at a Jonas Brother's concert. The Price Is Right is extremely entertaining and happy, and I think we can find another worldy use for it.



We take all world leaders that have conflicts with each other, fly them to Los Angeles, and force them to participate in a taping of the Price Is Right. It will automatically alter every one's disgruntled moods into carefree fun! We'll call down Russia and Georgia, Iraq, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, the US and virtually every country in Africa and pin them up against each other in games like Plinko! And of course, they'll all be enthusiastic participants in the Showcase Showdown! I don't know why the UN hasn't recommended this already!

Our Economic Crisis, and the Rap Song That Describes It

If there is one song which I believe fully explains the economic state that our county is experiencing right now, it has to be "Still Fly" by the Big Tymers. Please take a gander at the chorus line:

Gator boots with the pimped out Gucci suits (With the Gucci suits)
Ain't got no job, but I stay suave (Ehh-Ehh Ehh-Ehh, I stay suave)
Can't pay my rent, cause all my money's spent (I can't pay my rent)
But that's okay, cause I'm Still Fly (Uh, Uh, Damn! Cause I'm so fly)

Got a quarter tank of gas - in my new E class (In my E-Class Benz)
But that's alright, cause I'm gon' ride (mmm-hmm)
Got everythang - in my momma name (We got everythang, in my momma name)
But I'm Hood Rich - dadah-dadah da-dah da-dah da-dah (Uh-Huh!)

The Big Tymers are right on! Although this song was written and released a few years back, it was a foreshadowing of what we're experiencing right now: People buy things that they can't afford, just to look Hood Rich.


My solution: The government should bring in the Big Tymers as economic consultants, since they obviously know what's going on. I am sure they can think of economy-friendly methods of getting the bang for your buck. As you can see in one of their album covers, they could probably bring down unemployment, since they got that work.
