Governor Corzine Presents FY 2007 Budget

Congratulations New Jersey!

You voted for Corzine, now you have to deal with another tax and spend Democrat!

While you shitheads were voting for James "I'm a gay American" McGreevey, I was voting for Brett Schundler.

I voted for Schundler again in the Repbulican primary, but I guess conservatives are un-electable in New Jersey.

While you shitheads were voting for Jon "I'm a Bazillionaire and I lent my girlfriend $470,000 to buy a house I could fuck her in, then forgave the loan, and oh, by the way she's the head of the powerful NJ state employees union I hope it's not another conflict of interest" Corzine, I was voting for Doug Forrestor because at least he's not another tax and spend Democrat.

Well I hope you are all happy now. Happy, happy, happy. Don't worry, be happy. While the cost of everything from gasoline to food is going up, you will now pay even more for everything you buy because he just taxed it.

When you go out to a restaurant to eat dinner, that will cost you more. The next morning when you take a shit and flush the toilet, even that will cost you more (He proposed raising the sales tax to 7% from 6%, and adding a $0.04 tax per 1000 gallons of water).

And where will your money go? To pay inflated pensions and rich health benefits for state employees while you struggling in a private sector job will have to make due with your 401k and contributing to your own health benefits. I can't wait to retire to Florida. Or maybe Panama...

The $1000 Weekend

My wife and I celebrated our 10th anniversary by escaping to New York for the weekend, where it all started. My mom took the kids and we walked to the train station in the freezing cold and snow with a weekend duffle on wheels. Now we are not rich and we are not poor. We had given this big weekend a lot of thought, and had considered a 3-day cruise, but my mom is in her mid sixties with her health declining. My kids are three and seven, two crazy boys, and I figured in case Mom couldn’t handle it, we better not get too far away; so a weekend in New York it was. We stayed two nights in a four star hotel, ate dinner in a fancy French restaurant the first night, a moderately priced Thai restaurant the second night, ate brunch in a diner Saturday AM, had hamburgers in the hotel lobby Sunday, watched Saturday Night Live, slept in, took a walk in Central Park and that’s about it.

Being a man, I figured we could relive the good old days, our twenties, and have sex say six times over the weekend. My bride was figuring she could sleep 24 of the 48 hours of our escape. A successful marriage requires compromise, and a successful comprise is known when both parties feel like they got screwed. Well I got screwed twice and she slept about 20 hours. Not too bad measured against our goals.

My mom had a low grade cold, but she didn’t want to ruin the weekend for us so she just sucked it up, but gave us Jewish Grandmother guilt upon our return. The three year old likes Grandma and couldn’t have cared less about our departure or return. The seven year old gave us departure guilt, but put on a tie to welcome us home!

So here’s the financial breakdown of our escapades:

2 Nights in a Hotel $472.53
Dinner at a Fancy French restaurant $172.73
Brunch in a Diner $23.30
2 Discounted Tickets to a Broadway Show $151.50
Dinner at a Thai Restaurant $60.20
2 Hamburgers in the Hotel Lobby $17.00
2 Roundtrip Train Tickets to Penn Station $27.50
Subway/Cab/Coffee/Sundries/Tips $34.45
Total $959.21

48 hours away from the kids with my wife: Priceless!
