Mother Earth Fires 500,000 Americans

The AP cites snow as the main culprit in a half-million Americans filing new jobless claims last week.

Why are you snickering?  This makes complete logical sense.  Think about it:

A.) Wouldn't you, being the cowardly and selfish fat-cat boss we hear so much about in the news, rather "can" your no-good employees from the comforts of home than face their pathetic pleas for mercy as you send them packing in person?  I know my preferred method is via email (it allows me time to wax poetic the number of ways they've failed my business - plus you can attach coupons to McDonald's; it's the right thing to do).

B.) Mother Earth is pissed. We've mocked her "cycles" for too long.  Just to show us who's boss, she'll sacrifice a half-million of our livelihoods a week until we correct our erroneous ways:  designer coffee, Smart Cars, and miniature dogs  (Her logic here is impeccable:  less jobs = less money = less of these items). 

Fellow citizens of Earth, we have a choice to make.  We can either abandon a few materialistic things to appease Mother, or we can continue to destroy our economy with winter storms.  I know where I stand, do you?

OMG!  Louis Vitton has their new line of handbags out that will be perfect for Poopi, my toy poodle!  Screw it, I don't even live in the Northeast.  Sorry Suckas!
