I knew instantly...
that this plan could work. The few regulations rarely caused the overseers to look askance. I knew if I could get away with it for eight months, it would build on its own accord and take flight into numbers only dreamed about. It did.
Jail didn't scare me ~ I knew the big house man was good for a pardon. He had nothing to lose and everything to gain. TARP covered us all very smartly. We were too big to fail and people would forget about us as soon as American Idol came on.
It was well worth fifty billion for me...

nice :)
With my luck, I wouldn't get pardoned. Loved it!
This is entirely intriguing. Really intersting writing.
Doesn't say much for the American public...but then, what is there to say?
those calculated risks, eh?!
nice take on the prompt ;)
I couldn't do that. I'd quite like to, but I know I'd mess up!
Ah, the temptation, the hope.
Nice ;-)
we always see what is 'hot' and easy too forget as new 'hot thins' come...
Very sharp... and possibly right on target, I fear.
I also couldn't do that. Am very poor in all this stuff! Glad that you came up!
it left me wondering and with only a few paragraphs. well done!
Enjoyable read that kept me on my toes all the way through.Nice! (It feels good to be back reading Sun. Scribblings again!)
i love this.. very unexpected piece from you,, satirical,, and yet nore than likely the most truth we will ever be privy to,,,,
You should write prose more often. You did very well here.
Nice Take , I bet all that did go through his mind all the time . . .

Haha. That reminds me of a news story I read just the other day...

Very clever Sue! Loved the sad truth of American Idol making some forget. Hug
Intriguing ... I wish I could use fewer words and say as much.
Hugs and blessings,
It probably went exactly like that. Very nice writing.

Also, could you email me if you know of a writing group anywhere near...I'm looking for one.
Happy Holidays!
