    It takes money to make money. The rich get richer and the poor dream on.

    Yeah, running a taco stand can be quite time-consuming—especially when you don’t have an adorable chihuahua to help advertise it.

    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons….

    In the bleak midwinter there’s nothing like a comic strip to cheer you up, is there, GBT?

    There was an episode of ‘Malcolm In The Middle’ where the parents, for medical reasons, can’t have sex for a month. By the end of the month, the house and garden are looking magnificent, both have gotten promotions at work, and the kids are doing great in school. As soon as they can go back to the old routine, everything falls apart again.

    In panel 3, Daddy’s silhouette looks a lot like Mike.

    Zipper is Zonker’s nephew. So that makes it a 50/50 chance Daddy is Zonker’s brother. I am having trouble wrapping my head around that one.

    And really, why even live if you’re not rich?

    He made the mistake of not paying his workers minimum wage and no tips.

    I’m wondering how Zipper is expecting to get through to his junior year in college. He doesn’t seem like scholarship material. :)

    There are some things you simply need to make time for. I also forgot to make time to become rich. Oh well….maybe tomorrow.

    I’m recalling something I heard a few months ago on why socialism never really took off in the USA. American’s don’t think of themselves as middle class – they think of themselves as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.
