The economy is so good that I'm firing the BLS Commissioner for reporting numbers so grim I refuse to believe them, and also demanding the Fed cut rates typically seen during a recession.

It’s Sunday, so let’s share the good word:

San Antonio's too scared of a little holiday horror? I say let Krampus loose and then do a world tour. Also, why limit to just kids? I'm sure we can think of a few adults we wouldn't mind including on the naughty list.
