What is it about October that attracts crashes?
Rather than contemplate that question, I’m writing this post.
Yesterday morning while stopped at a red light, I watched a bus make a turn. I chuckled to myself because the bus was wrapped in an ad for Wachovia, about world savings accounts or something. When the bus turned toward me, though, I began guffawing. The bus’ destination? Not in Service.
I am now an account holder of JP Morgan Chase that swallowed Washington Mutual. Here is my response to that takeover:
JP Morgan Chase (Not Washington Mutual)
My bank is Chase was Washington Mutual
Now it’s Morgan Chase, not Washington Mutual
Been a short time gone, Washington Mutual
Now it’s a stockbroker’s fright on an autumn night
Every check from Washington Mutual
Belongs to Chase, not Washington Mutual
So if you’ve a debt with Washington Mutual
It’ll be paid to JP Morgan Chase
Why they changed it I can’t say
Maybe they made more money that way
So take my cash to Washington Mutual
No, you cannot bank with Washington Mutual
Been a short time gone, Washington Mutual
That’s nobody’s business but the Fed
JP Morgan Chase (Was WaMu)
JP Morgan Chase (Was WaMu)
Why they changed it I can’t say
Maybe they made more money that way
Now it’s Morgan Chase, not Washington Mutual
Been a short time gone, Washington Mutual
Why did Washington Mutual get the works
That’s nobody’s business but the Fed
JP Morgan Chase (Was WaMu)
