Yes, Norm you are right. When I get off my high horse I see it as well, ;) just got to have some sympathy for the workers of AIG because as always happens here, it is the little man who gets s*** on :sa:

My aplogies if I offended you. The joke is really at AIG who have just been bailed out by the US Reserve bank
The US central bank agreed to bail out the insurance giant American International Group with $85 billion in an unprecedented move aimed at propping up the influential company

The FAT CAT image of AIG seemed to be exaggerated by seeing all those expensive "workers" cars blockading their German Headquaters.

No no you didn't offend me, not possible as I've got a pretty thick skin. :p Na for some reason I didn't see the joke, must be getting old.
