Just got word this morning in the mail that Hussien is sending me $250.00 sometime within the next two months. Its got me absolutely giddy with the possibilities, and I just cant seem to come up with a sensable, responsable plan on how to use it. First thought was to buy a Dodge Viper, then I felt guilty and contrite, and immediately my grand kids future flashed, and I thought maybe I should sent them to college on it. The possibilities are endless, would I feel better about myself if I used it to make the World a better place, or should I just spread it around to those less fortunate than me. Redistribution of the wealth if you will. After all this is part of the great Stimilus Package. Would it be selfish to invest it and secure my future? Keep in mind that I am 70, and dont have that many years left that I couldnt just tighten my belt and endure without it if I could find a worthy cause.

Clearly, if you are getting a part of the stimulus, you are part of the problem in the government and the peoples eyes. You probably should have yourself arrested now and save the government the cost of hunting you down. The downside of that is they will put you in a clubhouse style prison and only feed you steak once a day, which may be a little hard to get used to.
If you don't do that, spend it on a product manufactured in your state. Wait, we don't manufacture things here in the US anymore.....wait, we do manufacture things like bank bailouts, insurance bailouts, scams, etc., so spend it on one of those things and support your country.

About the only other thing I can think of.... 250 trips to the 99c value menu at McD's!

It would be kind of funny to spend it on ammo or reloading components.  Obama:Gun salesman of the year!!

I'm probably going to toss in another couple hundred and buy a good handgun and a fair amount of ammo. Just would like to pick up a couple from a private sale so when the time comes for registration, there won't be a record of the sale to me.

Yep. Sure wish I had laid in a big stash of rifle primers for reloading. They are not avalable now.
