the big news I hear is to bail out the big 3, I still keep saying a bill should be passed to re-evaluate current home mortagages and free up families money so they can go buy that 52" sony, or that new chevy, or have that trans repaired
AIG was having a good time again,
Oprah is still is on the airwaves.
our new pres. took a look at his new crib
good times ahead my friends

I was looking to retire sometime this year. Numbers worked out really well last year.
The wife retired last year. But now, she tells me that for financial security, I will need to continue working.
At least until the Stocks recover some of their losses.
I am really not happy with the direction we are headed. I should be home working on boats...

I just looked at the local headlines:

BC Times
Local Silver Star Winner to be Honored
Cicuit City Bankruptcy
County Feeling Credit Pinch
DHL Packs Up US Shipping Services
A Stinky Situation (ok this was a story about a rabid skunk that the cops shot while he was crossing the road in Beaver this morning)

KDKA
Stocks Drop Sharply on Housing Consumer Woes
Steelers Ownership Deals
Obama Will Not Attend Global Economic Summit
Obama Pressed Bush to Help Auto Makers

Other than the skunk, yes, very scary. And a rabid skunk running around town SHOULD be scary.

Wife is looking at that career path. They are building a new wallyworld supercenter about 10 miles from the house. I told her that she could ride her bike and save that much more money for me to retire.

That's why I asked...there's not much that goes on in BF, unless you're college bound at Geneva.

I'm at work till 6. I'll give you a holler, you can come and help empty leaves out of the Barracuda.
