Happy F*cking NY to Wall st. I hope they enjoy the $$.
I guess it can get worse. I will try to keep an optimistic attitude about the upcoming year and its potential for creating some decent work. I have to admit, personally speaking, this time last year I was s***ting bricks. I really thought we were entering complete collapse. It was dark. We have a small reprieve. The people that are out of work are taking it on the chin real bad. Wall street is rolling in dough. Either we are really a new nation of 20% unemployment or so or we are better. Let's see where we are in 365 days.
GK Happy New Year man!
We'll see! I think its better to lower ones expectations without removing hope. Last yr. put a terrible strain on my hope gland. Not personally , NO personally it was the luckiest yr. of my life.
