Finding
humour in a dangerous game.
I'm still pretty convinced
that Bush & Co. are deliberately letting the US dollar slide to
offset the size of the deficit with the lower value of the currency.
As I've noted previously (here
and here), this is
a dangerous game, particularly if the rest of the world loses
confidence in the currency as an investment. But at least someone
can find humour in the rise of the Euro. Atrios over at Eschaton
posted
this funny snippet. The comments have been flying fast and
furious
ever since. Personally, I think that the best part is the pun
potential in 'rise'.
Meanwhile, back on
my little island, it has rained all night, all day, and looks
like it will go all night again. I've been cooped up in the office,
alternating between my paper (I'm going to get this to bed tonight
if it KILLS me!) and playing with the HaloScan
comments. I think that I've figured it out, and have made
it functional for all my most recent posts. Once I've got my papers
in to my profs and can breath again, I'll fix the archived stuff,
and then start adding comment capability to other areas, like
my poetry section. So much coding to do, so little time.
