Ahh, but see you are too focused on the extrinsic factors (bank account, etc). You need to focus on the intrinsic joy that will come from driving your car more.

That will balance it out my friend!

Just saw this on CNN... Why would the CDC allow her to get on a commercial plane?

From CNN.com...

Before flying from Cleveland to Dallas, nurse Amber Vinson called the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to report a temperature of 99.5 Fahrenheit and informed the agency that she was getting on a plane, a federal official said. Vinson was not told she could not get on the plane, the official said. Authorities announced Wednesday that the nurse was diagnosed with Ebola.

Welp, I guess the government wants ebola so that the elections don't occur or at the least, nobody talks politics.

Need to drive to the store for some bacon. Bacon cures all. As long as the bacon itself is cured. Or something like that.

^^^Not sure why people who have treated ebola patients in Africa and come back to the US aren't quarantined. I applaud their courage and dedication, but as this case shows, they could easily spread the disease to many, many people here.

Damn shit just got real for us. This douche was riding around in the subway system, taking cabs, even had the opportunity to go bowling in Brooklyn. WTF i would ship his ass back to Africa for his stupidity.

His fiancé lived with him so she probably has it now as well and god knows who she has been in contact with.

But he did take his temperature every day.... what a neanderthal

I already asked my friend who lives in the east if I could have all his money when he dies of Ebola. He said no, but I'll get his cars. Unfortunately they are beige horror stories.

Might have to revise these lyrics

Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it
New York, New York
These vagabond shoes are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it
New York, New York
I wanna wake up in a city that doesn't sleep
And find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap
These little town blues are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it in old New York
If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York, New York
New York, New York, New York
I want to wake up in a city that never sleeps
And find I'm a number one, top of the list
These little town blues are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it in old New York
If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York, New York, New York

There were a few things mishandled, that's for certain. But we don't have to worry about anything, really... It wiped out only 3k-ish in a third-world country. The kill count here probably won't even break double digits. Keep living your lives of debauchery with no worry.

Now they want to start quarantining returning health care workers. Better late than never, I guess.

Lol. Did Obama just hug the Asian nurse who got diagnosed with ebola nine days ago? That's just more than enough proof this whole thing is a hoax. Don't believe the panic the media and Washington is insinuating.
