Weekly Bankers' Breakfast "What's doin'?" "Not much. How about you?" "Oh, you know, same old not-much."
"So what else's going on?" "A little of this, a little of that." "Same here. It's just tit for tat."
"Well, how're things at the bank?" "Things are starting to stink." "Yeah, us, too. We're cutting jobs."
"Us too. We just laid off a dozen." "Looks like recession, for sure." "Sure does. Bye-bye, good times."
"Hello, bad." "Any prospects for mortgage loans?" "Not really. It's all foreclosures."
"Yeah, we've become real-estate agents." "Next, we'll be new- and used-car dealers." "Yeah or credit-card-prison guards."
"Rough sailin' ahead. Choppy seas." "This economy's a perfect tsunami." "Yeah, with no place, on shore, to hide."
"And the stock market's a money pit." "A sinkhole, I'd call it." "How 'bout a black hole?"
"Wish I'd bought gold, five years ago." "Try copper, corn, oil." "Try Berkshire Hathaway, a decade back."
"So what else is happening?" "Other than that, not too damn much." "Ditto, here. Just tryin' to make a buck."
"How 'bout some breakfast?" "Only if you're picking up the tab." "I would, but they canned my expense account."
