The Global Financial Crisis, The Flop & What the hell do we know about it

#technorati claim - QWATTZK7CR5H 
#short talk - for those of you who are following me on twitter, you should have known by now that my 'cooking post' promised yesterday which is virtually non-existence will not be published today due to unorthodox laziness and mid-afternoon wake ups. the market was closed by the time i got there (:



HEY! Someone please explain to me what the hell is going on with all the money on this planet?? Something really weird is going on right now but to much of my dismay, no one seems to have the answer to it or at least have a shred of clue of what is going on. Hang on a minute. I've heard explanations from financial experts regarding this matter and all they can summarized is that the whole world is currently undergoing Global Chocolate Addiction or something like that. I swear its something like that. Or at least rhymes with it. 

"It's hard trying to explain this to the public regarding this financial crisis, because only a mere 0.27% of the society are aware of that matter. And only 7% from the 0.27% understands the severity of it ", quoted by one financial expert. Actual statistics mind you.


So from what I can understand is that out of 10000 random people worldwide, only 27 are actually aware of the severe effects from chocolate addiction. And only, if my calculations are correct, 1.89 person(s) give(s) a damn about it!! 

The practice of converting currency is really getting out of hand these days. There is the 3.++ and the 5.6+ if that isn't enough, there is the 300+. Well, can we really measure the foreign exchange rate right now when the worldwide currency itself is not stable? 

Can I go like "Okay, USD$ 1 is equals to 12.78 seconds of laughter?"


..."Or also equivalent to a bag of cow dung. Take this down; the bag must be measured at a precise 16 X 32. Mind you. No room for errors"

Today, everything has change. Where are the good old days of "1 chicken = 3 papayas?". Sigh. Those days were great. No error, no debts, no REFUNDS! 

Nowadays, coins are practically useless. 20 years ago, they were considered gold bricks. How ironic? 

The other day, I stopped by the grocery store to get some stuffs. At the cashier, the electronic plate with green digits shows 13.40.


So i asked the shopkeeper, "Can I pay in USD$?"

"Okay that'll be 13 bags of shit, 48.23 seconds of laughter and 1 slap at the back!", he said


...."Also equivalent to 500 Terallion rupees. We don't take cheques. Mind you"....
