January 31st is on Sunday and that means I have great news.
First, today is payday. If the end of the month falls on the weekend, you get paid early.
The second piece of good news is that your lobbyist disclosure statements aren't due until Monday, because if the due date falls on a Sunday, you can file on the next business day. Awesome.
So if you live check-to-check and tend to procrastinate then this is like the best week ever.
You know someone who gets paid?

I don't know why people are complaining, I just got my 4th quarter statement for my retirement plans - up about 8% -- second quarter of positive gains since Spring of 2008!

Thanks for the "I've got mine, to hell with the rest of everyone else" mentality, Ron. I'm glad you've sold your soul out to corporations.
It's a good thing the Administration has nationalizing retirement plans in the crosshairs this year. I'm tired of smug Republicans pretending there isn't an issue or a fundamental problem with wealth distribution in this country.

Actually, Bergie, this helps your cause because I lost money in 2008 and who was the president then???

That's not the point, Ron. You're getting rich off people getting their job shipped off to China, India, Malaysia, wherever.
I know full well the reason why I am unemployed -- the George W. Bush Crime Family.

Bergie,
You're unemployed because you probably have no skill other than extremist whining and passive-aggressive posting.
