Angry Old People, Yurts, and the CFA Exam...

Our San Diego correspondent, Chad Vanuatu, comes back to us again more witty insight on the state of the San Diego retirement community: "I'm driving on Governor Drive, looking at these near-misses and assholes-in-general in the Henry's shopping center there and wonder why are you, bluehair, in such a hurry to get your double coupon ad Wednesday super bonus, can't say "thanks" when I open a door for you, drive like a fucking maniac in a shoe box sized parking lot, as well as wander around aimlessly looking to get run over once you park and get out of your car?"

Chad - get a life. Old people are useless and a drag on society, deal with it...

Alexander Florida, in an unsolicited response to a post the other day, mentioned,

"In my ignorance, I was pointed to the Bloomberg definition of "yurt" which reads "A circular, domed, portable tent used by nomadic peoples of central Asia". Nicely done."

Indeed, my people refer to them as "Kherga", as that is the Afghan-ese version of the "yurt", but you get the idea all the same...

And, just to beat back the complaints that I'm too negative, congrats go out to El Nino Namibia of Lafayette - he passed Level III of the CFA exam. I think that the certificate by this time is the size of a billboard, hopefully you have a wall large enough for the thing...

Ok - enough love, this is starting to sound like Paul Harvey...."Good day"...
