I usually slice up about 4 &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;hot dogs&lt;/span&gt; and toss them in the giant bowl.  I apologize and hope you can forgive me for &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;this deception&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Kyle "The Unbalanced Checkbook"&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6671189122514152720-3167384338284400048?l=unemployment389.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://unemployment389.blogspot.com/feeds/3167384338284400048/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://unemployment389.blogspot.com/2010/01/breakfast.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6671189122514152720/posts/default/3167384338284400048'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6671189122514152720/posts/default/3167384338284400048'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://unemployment389.blogspot.com/2010/01/breakfast.html' title='Breakfast'/><author><name>Elyk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17461901844947853940</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_s2ehO_NEZq0/S1YgrriEI6I/AAAAAAAAAAg/XKFoFSBN8rI/s72-c/break.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6671189122514152720.post-1078415562274883885</id><published>2010-01-19T06:51:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-02-01T08:44:52.102-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economics'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='canine'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pet'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humor'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sleep'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='topical'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='picture'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lick'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='economy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='depression'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dog'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='unemployment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='black and white'/><title type='text'>Alarm Clock</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_s2ehO_NEZq0/S1XEEaK38TI/AAAAAAAAAAM/l0qsilYWGIY/s1600-h/Alarm.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 290px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_s2ehO_NEZq0/S1XEEaK38TI/AAAAAAAAAAM/l0qsilYWGIY/s400/Alarm.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428460505888452914" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I have been unemployed for close to 400 days now.
