Stimulating!
If the so-called stimulus bill didn’t stimulate you, it must be because you’re a negative-minded cynic. You should follow the example of this company – which I shall not name – whose officers couldn’t be happier. They sent me this message:
“Over 100 billion stimulus dollars are headed toward decision makers in schools. Make sure your marketing messages are top of mind (sic)!
“The 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act gives schools new financial resources to provide services, upgrade technology, outfit labs, and address other pressing needs. In many cases, these dollars must be spent soon or immediately.
“How can you make sure you’re part of their spending plan?
“[Redacted] has 5 ways to help you get your share of stimulus dollars… Reach over 27,000 new superintendents, 35,000 new principals, and 764,000 new teachers who may have dollars to spend and no established sources!”
I’m thinking about writing a book on current affairs, but I’m can’t decide between two titles:
1) We Are All Matthew Lesko
or
2) Waiting for the Visigoths
