Just asking....

Should a dude who has run up $238,000 in credit card and personal loan debts be eligible for online credit counseling?

We see old Doc had to complete a course on the ABC's of money management in advance of his bankruptcy filing and he was able to do so from the convenience of his shack's Internet connection (which really should be considered a luxury when you're broke, right?).

Doesn't saddling one's self with such crushing debt call for something a tad more intensive? At the very least, someone should have given Doc a firmly delivered lecture on personal responsibility! At any rate, can we all agree to laugh with contempt in Doc's face the next time he dares to question and criticize Odyssey's financial affairs? It's obvious he doesn't know a flip about money: how to make it, how to manage it, how to keep it -- and the meager 200 clams in his bank account proves the point (how does one get to be his age and only have $200 to your name? Again, direct evidence of his foolish recklessness over a long, long period of time).

P.S. We see McManus has the Yahoo administrators working overtime to have any references -- no matter how benign -- to this shame-faced development promptly removed. We find that somewhat amusing, and not a little disturbing. Does anyone doubt that if there were something equally embarrassing about one of Odyssey's management team members out there as a public document that Doc and his poser cohorts would be posting non-stop about it? As always, the level of hypocrisy is stunning. But, never fear, the damage is clearly done: Doc's reputation is officially all blowed up. Hey, it couldn't have happened to more deserving fellow.
