I had to tease this definition out at DU. Apparently, the day you earn your first paycheck, you are part of the long-standing tradition of Bosses standing on the necks of the Real Workers of the world. Entrenchment comes with check #2. Sadly, the Real Workers have never actually . . um . . . worked, you know, but they would, really, if you Bosses would just stop exploiting them.

True, but really Panda should be the example we cite. He' isn't as good looking or as smart as guys like us, so he'll seem more attainable to the average Joe.

I'm not attainable to any average Joe (NTTAWWT, of course).

Funny, so do they. May the highest caliber win!

Anyone know where I can get one of these?

I might.

And here I was, worried that the smug and smarmy quotient was going to drop through the floor after GGG's untimely retirement.

But if GGG was your sock, and you're Flower's sock, and Flower is . . . Oh.My.God.

My income has gone up by an annual average of over 25% since Bush has been president. Give me 3 more years, 8 of Jeb and 8 more of George P. Maybe one of the twins after that, the cute one.

Mine too -- at least that much. On the other hand, it went up several thousand percent under Clinton.

When did your parole go through?

You're talking like that matters. Haven't you been paying attention? Clinton lied under oath.

Mine too, but that is due in part to the fact that I didn't get paroled until 1994. Prison wages are a bitch.

I was much, much better off at the end of Clinton's 2nd term than I was at the beginning of it.

At least I have inspired you to grow a pair of balls and admit that, although if you a chick, I apologize for the gender disruption.

I am. I have more than doubled my income, plus my equity in my house has appreciated at least 5 fold.

Otoh, I am fatter and slower. The lourd giveth and the taketh away, or something like that.

I hear ya. Here's to the house rich. I'm up $150K on the value of my house in less than 14 months myself. I can't wait to sell it and move into one of the other bigger houses around me which haven't similarly increased in value.

Rich I tells ya, rich!

Oh, don't worry - they were there a long time before you were even a gleam in the football team's eyes.

We can't constantly snipe about Clinton. He did, after all, give us Hilary.
