The boats above are Dunkpunts. You don't need wads of cash to build them. They're the antithesis of Americas Cups Yachts.
The Duckpunt: "Sailing so chilled, the sailors lay down."
Leave it to the Brits to come up with this low key and inexpensive way to sail.
Cheers to Dylan for this video. This could be another boat for Bonnie to consider.

I hope you can. Basic algebra involving fractions and decimals stumped a group of City University of New York freshmen - suggesting city schools aren't preparing them, a CUNY report shows. During their first math class at one of CUNY's four-year colleges, 90% of 200 students tested couldn't solve a simple algebra problem, the report by the CUNY Council of Math Chairs found. Only a third could convert a fraction into a decimal.

"Please take it all, I want to do my patriotic duty!"
How much did I pay? No doubt about it, I need a new tax accountant!
Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Should five per cent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman
If you drive a car, I'll tax the street,
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat.
If you get too cold I'll tax the heat,
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet.
Don't ask me what I want it for
If you don't want to pay some more
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
Now my advice for those who die
Declare the pennies on your eyes
'Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me.
Taxman by George Harrison.

Dear Great Benevolent Comrade Leader,
Little did I realize that all your talk about Free Enterprise was just a ploy to lead our country down a glorious path towards a People's Democratic Republic. Your brilliant achievement has astounded us all. Long live the revolution!
P.S. You could give Hugo lessons on increasing the size and control of government.

"I have a hard time understanding why we are giving $700 billion to the Secretary of the Treasury, the former CEO of Goldman Sachs, who along with other financial institutions, actually got us into this problem. Now, maybe I'm the only person in America who thinks that's a little bit weird, but that is what I think." - Bernie Sanders.

To stampede or not to stampede, that is the question.
Not all the "folks" or "friends" agree with Senor El Presidente or the experts on CNBC and the major networks that we need to rush the horses off the ranch without knowing the terrain. I know that I'm not the smartest cowpoke on the spread, but it's been my experience that panic always leads to bad decisions. You never know, the direction toward the South 40 might have a cliff or two.
Below are those with differing views on how to handle the current "CRISIS."
Bailout will turn America into England.
Bankruptcy, not bailout, is the right answer
Why the Bailout is Bad for America.
Does It Take a Panic to Stop a Panic?
How Would We Know If a Bail-Out Worked? Take Your Stand
I Think We Better Think It Out Again
You Can't Rescue the Financial System If You Can't Read a Balance Sheet
That should be enough for you to chew on.
