You sound like our progressive friend Caesar. Always excited to jump off the biggest cliff there is!!! I think Columbia should have a heavy ball & chain on your feet. What? Grand Canyon!!!!!! Is that where old Faithful is?

Mrs. Kaat walks into the living room, switches on TV. Wolf Blitzer is in the Situation Room. She sighs heavily and calls out to her husband Raat Kaat.Mrs. Kaat: Hey Raat? They talking about the fiscal cliff again hon. Seems like it’s gotten really bad.Raat (walking into the living room): I am just so tired of hearing about this fiscal cliff thing. I don’t wanna go over no effing cliff and they keep saying fiscal cliff, fiscal cliff. Why the hell can’t they do something before it’s too late if it is not already too late?Kaat: Do know honey. Do know. But they saying we might all just go over that fiscal cliff. That’s what they saying.Raat: Well I don’t wanna go over no gaadamn cliff, especially no gaadamn fiscal cliff. I worked for my gaadamn money and now they telling me I’m going over the fiscal cliff? Naa, naa not me.Kaat: Everybody’s going over honey; everybody. At least it’s everybody going over, not just us.Raat: Well I am no gaadamn everybody Kaat. I don’t even wanna think of any cliff, you know that right? It’s not that you don’t know.Kaat: I know hon. I wonder what we can do…Raat: Well you can start by changing the channel. This is why I don’t like CNN. They are always predicting doom and gloom. Try Fox News instead.Kaat: All right honey; here goes (switches channel; reporter’s voice fills the air).Fox: It seems like we are going to have to go over the fiscal cliff as democrats continue playing childish peekaboo with serious Republicans . . .Raat: Why don’t you just switch to ESPN, turn the darn TV off or get some movie On Demand. I just can’t stand all this talk about fiscal cliffs anymore. It’s killing me.Kaat: But honey it’s not gonna be the end of the world . . .Raat: What you talking about Kaat? Not the end of the world? It’s gonna be the end of my world; the end of the world for my business, my money. Can’t you see that it’s impossible to climb out of even a rock cliff? Compare that to the horrible prospect of falling down a fiscal cliff. . . Gaad Kaat I just can’t understand you sometimesKaat: Relax hon; it’s serious but it’s not gonna be THAT bad. They say so in the news; some professor of economics at Cliffhanger University . . .Raat: I don’t care what anybody says and I don’t wanna hear about it. Why then do they keep taking about it? Why is everybody so scared to death if it’s not gonna be bad, huh? I’m just not going over no gaadamn cliff, especially not any gaadamn fiscal cliff. Why do you think everyone in this country is losing their effing minds if the fiscal cliff wasn’t real, huh? How can we not worry when our country is on the slippery edges of a blood-chilling dangerous precipice . . .?Kaat: Ah. You should’ve heard Ducky say how horrible it’s gonna be. She was literally shaking all over and her face was the reddest I’ve ever seen. Says her husband now constantly sticks cotton pads in his ears to avoid hearing about the fiscal cliff . . . They have disconnected their TV service.Raat: Well, damn good for them. The Beavers are moving over to Cancun; did I tell you that? They’ve sold their mansion and they leaving. They won’t sit around here and wait to fall into some gaadamn fiscal cliff. But you don’t wanna hear about moving anywhere outside this country that’s clearly headed for disaster . . .Kaat: I’m sure not moving to Mexico I would rather voluntarily jump over the highest and most dangerous cliff in America than move to some animal–infested backwater of country. Ha! Can’t even imagine that.Raat: Well you’ve always been stubborn and you can suit yourself. I’m not going over no cliff; I’m gonna pack up and go soon even if it means going to Africa. Anything but a damn fiscal cliff! Now will you please change that channel or shut it off?(Kaat switches off TV as doorbell rings. Kaat gets the door)Raat: That must be Chicky. She’d said she would pass by tonight on her way home from shopping.Kaat: Hello Chick. Where the hell have you been in this darn cold?Chicky: Ha! Your brother needed a six-pack and I had to rush to the store for some groceries. Gaad, did you hear the latest news on the fiscal cliff? I was just listening on the radio and it seems we all going right over because of some stupid folks in Washington DC.Raat: We were just talking about that. Can you imagine America going over the fiscal cliff . . . the banks, Wall Street, Main Street, Hollywood, the Fed . . . Everyone just going right over that horrible fiscal cliff into a bottomless pit? I’m getting out of this gaadamn country Chicky and I’ve told your friend here as much.Chicky: It’s really bad guys. I mean really, really bad. My husband’s been drinking himself to death and there’s nothing I can do about it. He is right to be so worried isn’t he? Everyone’s worried to death. I heard the Beavers just moved to Mexico and the Breeds are going too.Kaat: I hate to be the unheeded voice of reason here but I think we are all over-reacting. The fiscal cliff is not really a cliff it’s just a metaphor . . .Raat: A metaphor?Chicky: Well it’s as real as real can be judging by how terrified everyone is. I’m told that down south the bars are always full of tears. People are drowning their fears in alcohol. My own husband will not open his eyes anymore and he sticks cotton wool into his ears. He doesn’t wanna see or hear anything about the fiscal cliff. Everyone’s convinced we are finished if we go over that fiscal cliff; and it looks like we gonna go right over that cliff. What with the kind of people we have in DC these days? People who are where they shouldn’t be in the first place and are holding our lives in their dark hands? Uh! Makes me sick thinking about it!Raat: You damn right; the effing world’s all upside down; might as well be the end of times; the entire effing country’s in shock and we are headed for a fiscal cliff because of the unnatural things happening in Washington, DC . . .Chicky: There sure is panic in the air; you can fill it and it’s real I tell you. We sure should get ready for the great fall; it might as well be the last fall if you ask me.Raat: Ugh! My blood sugar level is rising again . . . I’m gonna go get somin’(The phone rings; Kaat picks it up. It’s her cousin Birdy)Birdy: Hey, you guys heard the latest about the fiscal cliff?
