Economics 101 or where did we go so terribly wrong
A serious talk as told by little every man (EM) and Little Man (LM)
LM: Did U decide to take that econ course, U were thinking about?
EM: yes…and it is a huge mistake…
LM: oh
EM: I attended the 1st class meeting last night over at Rainbow Rock..
LM: Yeah…the CC across town…
EM: they offer a bunch of sample courses …
LM: I remember…like a an open door chips-n-dips party…
EM: well…forget that…if U didn’t have time 2 swing over 2 in-and-out, dinner would be dispensed … cheese-crackers the cuisine of dreamers and slackers…
LM: and the class?
EM: right…couldn’t get near the door…U no the drill
LM: even 4, excuse me 4 saying, a sleep inducing pill like econ 101...
EM: I couldn’t believe it either…
LM: I guess it is, ‘the economy stupid…’
EM: no kidding
LM: I wasn’t
EM: right, …so
LM: go on…
EM: so, they circulated a “waiting” list…which everyone seemed to sign…
LM: yes
EM: everyone knows that ¾ of them will not return 4 the next meeting…
LM: which is when…?
EM: this coming Thurs…
LM: U going back?
EM: I don’t know…what do U think
But LM was focusing on the Drifters’ song, Get-a-job…
and EM’s question floated away on heavy air…
And, so, it came 2 pass…
