me grief. falling rates for now after rising a full percentage rate, mortgage rates are slipping back to 4%. rate on the 30-year fixed loan, 4.23%. the 15-year, a popular refinancing tool. 3.33%. now, lower rates mean more money in your pocket. a $200,000 loan at 4.23% carries a mortgage payment of $982. at 4.5%, it is more than $1,000. interestingly, the return of low mortgage rates has not meant more refinancing or more home sales yet. almost 50 million american adults are smokers. that is 19% of the population. almost one in five. the leading cause of preventible death. which company is snubbing smokers? give me 60 seconds on the clock.
greg: are you done? we re doing this thing here called a show. over my vacation i ran in a friend who gave me grief. he hated my abortion joke i made. remember that one? knock-knock. who s there? you ll never know. but anyway, if it wasn t for abortion he said he would have no life. true. he would have been a dad three times over. it s impossible to prove a negative if you don t exist. they don t. so no father s day card for him. so i loved planned parenthood for the first time ever teaming up with the l.a. school district to create on campus clinic for three birth control counseling and so on. this is because birthrate is high among teens in l.a. county. to wait. birthrates are down throughout l.a. county. what could it be then? right, they re just giving mammograms.
