Hi, Ed, gotta love Jersey. I just got my homestead rebate check. They were talking about how much bigger they were going to be this year. The freaking morons. Last year I got $900. This year I got $235. Who did they give the promised extra money to, the people on welfare, like they did some years back? Next time the bearded wonder Corzine promises anything to us, you know he’s lying. Tell him to go back and run Goldman Sachs.

Rebate envy

Put it all in perspective. The value of your home is probably plummeting, so it’s only fair that your rebate shrivels. —Ed. Note
