Update XIX: Melancholy and the Infinite Napping

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Poor bushie. I assume the diet is dead too. He's probably nursing his headache and spells at Braum's.

ODF is practicing economic forecasting and economic history without a license. Ugh.

What's he saying?

He's talking about how the drop in oil prices is signaling a potential recession, which I guess could be true, but as of now all the economic indicators are showing that the economy is still in solid shape, albeit income inequality is still a problem. The one good thing about the drop in oil is that people are spending that extra income on consumer goods, as the CPI is at the highest levels in years.

The only thing the low oil is hurting is profits at oil companies, and that has actually hurt the stock market. I am invested in several natural gas drilling companies and have seen their stock prices drop 60-80%, and now the overall markets are selling off too. I have no idea if this is short term or what, but I can't see oil prices staying this cheap forever.

I miss Update

I wish he'd come back.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Thought of this immediately:

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

I believe she dumped him the last time, and I think the evidence supports that. But I think he forced her hand to do it because he lacked any affection towards her. I bet he gave her half hugs when they saw each other and rarely, if ever, kissed her, and she got tired of it. He probably professed his love more online than he did to her face.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

While I sympathize with Bushie's dream to spread his religious beliefs, he has it all wrong.

I know God too, and God is a beautiful woman who is vengeful, funny and loves to teach me lessons whenever she feels like it. I live to entertain her.

When God wants to be known, she will introduce herself to you, and it will be a way you can't ignore even if you want to ignore God. She's ride you until you finally give it up.

Pretty clear Bushie is a manic depressive.

I have believed this for sometime.

Whats scary is no one in his social circle finds it odd that he's calling himself these african children's "daddy." Child rapist tones aside, it just sounds odd for a grown man to call himself daddy to sponsor children. Not to mention how confused those kids will turn out if they are told he's their father.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Bushie needs to watch the movie "Fed Up." It's excellent and really would explain a lot to him about the situation with his diet and physical health.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Right now his heart is even more drawn to Kenya because of his predatory Crusading cousin, but he forgets that the Kenyan authorities aren't going to let him "love on..." any black children unless he wants some time in a local jail, whether he says he's their daddy or not.  Once again, not thinking.

I think he finally admitted he won't be able to adopt them, but he wanted to go there to work with the orphanage spreading Jesus all over them like you spread mayo on a sandwich.

The possibility does exist that he has reverted back to his whole "God is the final authority so the Kenyan laws don't matter" mantra, but only he can confirm that.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

I'm sure most people Bushie associates with find him calling himself "daddy" and all that quite creepy just as we do, but probably just don't say anything about it. After all if I met someone in real life who was saying such things I'd be like "OKayyyyy" and just never bring it up again. And it seems his sister-in-law is the only one willing to ever call him out.

This could be it. They might be aware that he is just extremely quirky and chose not to say anything about it. There's always "that guy" in the group that is just...different.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

One glass of wine won't keep you from driving 3 miles. It would take 3-4 to get a man your size over the legal limit I bet.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Did Bushie take off today to watch the new years coverage from Kushimbu, Africa?

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

I have such a bad feeling that Dallas ends up beating Green Bay. I hope I'm wrong.
