    A little fun fact.

    Would you work for someone if they agreed to pay you a penny on the first day, then doubled it the next day, then doubled that the next day and kept doing this for thirty days?

    Know how much you would have made at the end of thirty days? See bottom of post.


    I had forgotten about this until I watched "The Happening" and there was a scene talking about it. Oh yeah, don't waste your time watching "The Happening" I thought it was awful, reminded me of a longer really bad Twlight Zone episode. Now Iron Man, that's a great movie if you haven't seen it.

    Anyways

    This is the total everyone would receive except for DJD who would be paid in pesos because he refused to wear his helment while playing football and now aint that great with numbers.

    Don't worry though DJD, you still raked in $830,805.86 that is until Obama gets his hands on it. Ha, Ha threw that one in there before you got the chance.

    Re: A little fun fact.

    Hell YEA.............

    THAT is something like MORE money that all the money EVERYONE in this country has combined.......

    Or, about as much as Bill Gates........

    Or how much Obama will need to raise to pay for his plan

    OK.......a little over the top......but is is a SERIOUS NUMBER.

    Later,
