REPRINTED FROM THE OLINOY REPORTER, OCTOBER 4TH, 2013.
By Josh Newcombe
In what this reporter sees as an important historical event, Martin P. Hastings from South Olinoy, Illinois, finally made ends meet last week while drinking his morning cup of coffee.
He'd been trying to do it ever since he got out of college. Now, married with his own kids in college, he's finally pulled it off.
When asked what it felt like to make ends meet Marty said, "Not so good. Turns out they really don't get along very well and they've vowed never to meet again." And he added, "You'd think they were a divorced couple or something… the tension in the room was almost unbearable."
It's really a shame when something that seemed like it should be so significant turns out so sour. "Millions of people across the country have been trying to do this for most of their adult lives," Marty sighed and muttered, "now I guess they'll all have to set their sights on something else., like finding the end of the rainbow or something, I know I will."
