As someone who eats out once a year at most and hasn't been on a vacaction in 8 years, you don't know what the fukk you are talking about. So, are you claiming you eat out once a year and haven't been on a vacation in 8 years because you can't AFFORD it? Yes, I am on a very tight budget. The last vacation I took was in 2000. I have been pretty much on my own since my father died when I was 11. That's when I started working at different jobs. When you don't have parents to fall back on, you develop a particular mindset when it comes to money. When the money is scarce, the budget gets very tight. That's how I learned to survive. BTW I do go out with friends but I only have something to drink and I do go to the occasional movie. However, the last thing I want is to end up homeless. That's my biggest fear.

Yet another conservative official sends racist anti-Obama e-mail. In a story that has become so common that it is almost passé, yet another conservative official has been busted sending racist e-mails. This time, the culprit is Atwater, CA Councilman Gary Frago, who sent at least half-a-dozen racist, anti-Obama e-mails to Atwater staff and community members: Some compared Obama to O.J. Simpson while others suggested that “n[*****] rigs” should now be called “presidential solutions.” Perhaps the most overboard e-mail was sent on Jan. 15. It read: “Breaking News Playboy just offered Sarah Palin $1 million to pose nude in the January issue. Michelle Obama got the same offer from National Geographic.” Frago admitted sending the e-mails, but showed no regret. “If they’re from me, then I sent them,” he said. “I have no disrespect for the president or anybody, they weren’t meant in any bad way or harm.” When given an opportunity to explain himself, Frago somehow managed to dig himself a deeper hole by saying: “I don’t see where there’s a story, I’m not the only one that does it. … I didn’t originate them, they came to me and I just passed them on.” thinkprogress.org
