Even my face is balanced, with just enough ugly to make it interesting. I can walk the length of a balance beam without falling over. I can even drink a soda through a straw from an open cup while in a moving bus, and not spill a drop.
But give me a budget, any budget, and I start to twitch. Say the words “balanced budget” and I am undone. How can you balance a budget when there are more things to buy than there is money to spend? Whe
