You might as well get paid in guilder

With the euro now worth $ 1.60, and a barrel of oil almost $ 120, you might say that our U.S. friends haven't been able to keep their value up well. Just think that at the NFL Draft this weekend some poor sap will be drafted first and earn a multi-million dollar contract, which in Europe will just get him as far as McDonald's. He won't be able to drive around lots, because his monthly wages can't even get him halfway past The Hague.

That's it. I'm buying a house in Malibu.
