See page two story in the NY Times on Zimbabwe. Is it the future of America or are their too many Chicken Little's screaming the finical skies are falling?
The Somalian Pirates have lowered their demand from 25 million to just 5 million. Seems the credit crisis and plunge on wall street has taken a chunk out of their portfolio too.
It appears VP hopeful Joe Bidden's claims to be an average joe and "your kitchen table is like mine" are a bit exaggerated, unless of course you also live in a 6,800 sq ft, $3 million dollar home on four acres on a lake. (I rent a home on a river, but the water is polluted and you can't swim in it or eat the three eyed fish.)
Car sales for September were the worse since 1993, the same year Jurassic Park appeared in theaters, the battle of Mogadishu took place, and drug lord Pablo Escobar was gunned down. (That took some research!) So this year, Spielberg has a new movie coming out, we are fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, and a drug killer was killed in Baltimore last weekend. Coincidence? I think not!
Enjoy the news,
