Means to what End?

Dear monkeys, a job is great, but to what ends are ya'll striving towards? I had this funny notion today of imagining myself being in the shoes of famous people.

That said, who would you rather be in the next 20, 30, 40 years? Just a few names off the top...

-Barack Obama
-Warren Buffet
-Hugh Hefner
-George W.

Personally, I think W probably led the most baller life. Partied during Vietnam, screwed around with sports leagues, then took up the job as CEO America. Not bad for not giving a shit about anything.

 

3 of them are probably going to be dead in the next 10-15 years. The 4th might be dead within the next 4 or 5 years, but that's only if some hick finds his balls and does the right thing.

I will wait for the shitshower.

Well, I'm just really hoping for one of them to expire. I'm not a violent man, just a hopeful one.

I'm gonna go wait by the front door for the Secret Service, if you don't hear from me for a while, that's why...
