My Own Quote of the Day

Driving home from work, listening to a Reverend Bleepo Abernathy rant on the Hour of Slack, a quote occurred to me:
One man’s doomsday is another man’s payday.
It seems like about 2/3 of the current news here in the USA could be something that quote applies to, be it economic meltdown and bank takeovers or bailouts, the war in Iraq as a profit center for KBR, you name it. Use it at will, I know I will be.
