I just hope everyone is bracing themselves for the oncoming depression. I know I am stocking up on canned and dry food items. Maybe I will start filling up gallon jugs with water.

Those developing countries are getting US foreign aid straight outta your taxpaying pocket. That's why they are getting all that new-faggled high speed connection technology. And then they use all the fast connections to send you emails at lightning speed telling you that you've won an enormous inheritance, but first you gotta send them some money.

While searching for potential grants to benefit Linton-Stockton High School (because I am on a Community Support Committee), I accidentally came across a $300 million grant for education and training. I was elated!

When I began reading the grant information online, I realized that the entire amount was given to an organization called US Aid. That organization granted the money to the United States Azerbaijan Chamber of Commerce for workers in that country to be trained.

Then I realized after spending time looking up information on the internet that there is a pipeline being built (in the middle eastern area). It would appear that the workers are being trained to be oil pipeline workers and other support like trucking, etc., for the oil industry. Imagine that.
