Now's the perfect time to get into the stock market

..even apple slipped a little, when it didnt reveal a surprise after announcing the new ipods.

gas prices keep rising. the two biggest factors? preemptive hiking, and drug abuse.

another juicy tidbit about this administration: countless documents are lost because people dont hit save. i think it could just be a windows problem. or terrorists.


on a side note, the whole obama-palin experience dispute reminds me of trying to get a "retail job." everyone wants "retail experience" but how do you get that if you need it to get it?


point is: consumer confidence is down. wayyy down. my little hometown's economy relies heavily on tourism, and weve had a particularly bad year due to gas prices and "stay-cations." gas prices hit up to $5 a gallon yesterday. that's about an hour's worth of work, after taxes.. and speaking of taxes, all this talk of the burden on taxpayers, tax cuts blah blah blah. what we need is decreased spending- by the government, and by us.

ive also thought of telecommuting to europe to do design. because itll a: save gas and b: pay more because of the exchange rate.
