put these on your New Years resolution lists

Lets permanently say goodbye to these very annoying terms


"Awesome''  usually uttered by some mindless young person who should
not be allowed to become and old person. A supernova is awesome. Having
your peanut butter and jelly bread land right side up is not.

''At the end of the day'' I would have cut my wrists at the beginning
of the day if I knew I would hear this meaningless phrase again

''The bottom line''  used to be a description of profit or loss
on a financial statement.  Now it is being used by people
who got punched in the nose for using ''at the end of the day''

''Facetime'' Apple communication software is excused but not
the doorknobs who feel ''Lets meet'' is too ambiguous ...

and while we are at it here is a brief description of the meaning
of some economic terms that are overused by popular media

''Fiscal Cliff''  This is Wiley E Cayote's destination after learning
that his Visa card is no longer accepted by Acme Explosives ltd.

''Debt Ceiling''  is the original retractable roof for politicians to ensure
they can keep spending other peoples money

''Quantitive Easing''  Money printing

''Revenues''  Taxes

''S&P"  Standard and Poor which describes formerly Exceptional & Rich
before they bought Facebook stock
