			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been feeling pretty worthless lately due to my financial situation&#8230; Which got me thinking what are we really worth, now I&#8217;m horrible at math (Which is why I didn&#8217;t pursue a science degree, if I had I&#8217;d probably still be a useful member of society&#8230; Damn you Chemistry!), so lets see how this works.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll start with a known value, my worth to my Ex ( $$$ ), she has made it known that money is her number one priority, and I pay her every month&#8230; I actually have to respect that at least I know exactly where I stand with her and no one wants me to succeed more, because it means more money for her.  Then there is my value to my kids, I know this is an unmeasurable number and that this value will only increase with their age, but currently if asked Lucy would rank me somewhere around a Littlest Pet Shop toy and Bing, I would think, would put me on par with a bowling ball ( LP/BB ).  How about the blog?  There is some value in this, I think it is about as important as the show Dirtiest Jobs, it&#8217;s mildly entertaining and you take away some useless information (Rowe ).  Friends and Family is probably a negative number in my equation because I get more than I give&#8230; I&#8217;m kind of draining! (- Drama )  And what about my value to society?  Well, I&#8217;ve been out of work for over a year and really haven&#8217;t contributed much. ( &#8211; EDD ) Finally, there is my value to me&#8230; I like me, I think I&#8217;m a pretty good person (That doesn&#8217;t mean I&#8217;m proud of everything I&#8217;ve done, but overall, there are way worse people out there ). ( Me! )</p>
<p>So I think this woud be the math:</p>
<p>$$$ + LP/BB + Rowe &#8211; Drama &#8211; EDD + Me! = Jack</p>
<p>That&#8217;s enough math!  In other news, I forgot to mention a few things on yesterday&#8217;s blog.  First, my friends <a href="http://tonyandkris.com/" target="_blank">Tony and Kris</a> are back on the radio!  If you like country music you have to check out their syndicated show.  I so happy that people I like are back on the radio, it gives me hope that&#8217;ll happen for some of the rest of us.  Also, I have to admit that <a href="http://www.crni.net/default.aspx?date=11/17/2009&amp;nid=67&amp;pid=0&amp;eid=2061" target="_blank">The Erik and Jack Attack</a> over on CRN is growing on me&#8230; I love that they have some fight in them and they give us crap right back, it really makes it more fun for us!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.bigboy.com/Locator_Restaurant.asp?City=Sun+Valley&amp;State=California" target="_blank">Bob&#8217;s Big Boy</a> tonight (Sun Valley location 6-10p)&#8230; I&#8217;ll post some pics!  Meet the Love Boss in person and see how many Big Boy Combos Stench can kill off!</p>
