You DON'T have THE BLUES if ...
... your Prius/BMW/Volvo needs an oil change.

... you didn't get that promotion to Sr. VP

... your automatic sprinkler system needs service

... your woman is complaining because Citibank won't increase her credit limit so she can buy another tennis bracelet.

... your 401(k) dropped a few points because of short-sellers on the Dow Jones (in fact, if you even know what Dow Jones IS)

... your boss complained because he didn't get your report on index futures on time

On the other hand, you MIGHT have THE BLUES if:

... your 15-year old Cadillac/Chevy broke down, needs a new oil pump, and all you've got is a dollar three eighty.

... your woman left you for another man

... you just lost your hourly wage job at the mill

... your boss is doing your woman


You might be depressed, but you ain't got DA BLUES.

What else?

:hi:

2. I hasten to add, you don't have the BLUES if ...
... you listen to Rush. In fact, if you listen to Rush, you know NOTHING of the BLUES.

3. There was a Boondocks comic that covered that ...
Grandfather and the kids are watching a rap video ...

Grandfather: "He's got the car"
Kids: "Yeah"

Grandfather: "He's got the house"
Kids: "Yeah"

Grandfather: "He's got the money"
Kids: "Yeah"

Grandfather: "He's got the pool"
Kids: "Yeah"

Grandfather: "He's got the jewelry"
Kids: "Yeah"

Grandfather: "He's got the women"
Kids: "Yeah"

Grandfather: "So why is he angry?"

6. Oh, I'd have the blues if my woman left me for another man alright
After 37 years with her, I probably wouldn't even know if another woman was interested in me,
and even if I did, I wouldn't have the faintest idea what to do about it.
