The days of the Kardashians and the “Real Housewives” -- shows about people with money, that is -- may be coming to an end.

The new breed of reality shows is coming face to face with the hard, flat-broke truth of a country facing difficult economic times. The new shows teach the tricks of the trade about coupon clipping, furniture restoration, storage-locker auctions -- and soon, even getting back to work.

Getting people off unemployment and back on the payroll is the job of A&E’s “Job Whisperer” -- a sort of cross between “Supernanny” and “Millionaire Matchmaker.”

A local guy (village idiot) stopped by a few weeks ago to borrow my post hole diggers. He asked about oilfield jobs. I told him of a job site that he could apply on-line and all he needed to do was go to the library and get an e-mail address. He won't do it.

I also gave him 5-7 ideas he could use to go to any small/medium/large city and make money. These would entail him having, maybe, a $1000 for start up and living expenses while he got some $ rolling in. He won't do that. 3 weeks later and I'm going to have to send the boy to his house to get my diggers back.
