On the Economy

According to standard statistical methods, the economy really isn't doing as badly as one might think: http://www.factcheck.org/article.aspx?docID=170

But why does everything feel so different? Why am I talking to so many people who have lost their jobs and are quitting the workforce?

Notes of things I'd like to do...

-Road trips around the United States. First stop: Portland, OR
-Taking some classes here: http://www.ciachef.edu/enthusiasts/pdf/Adult_Ed_Spr_04.pdf in Hyde Park.
-More trips to Europe, particularly Portugal, Ireland and Scotland next.

Your name is Buck...

I can't believe Ethan Hawke cheated on Uma Thurman. Dumbass.

So I'm sitting here, watching Kill Bill, and paying some bills. Kill Bill is quite captivating.

But this is the end of my evening. I should fill you in on the details of the early part of my evening:

I worked out at the gym: jogging and upper body weights.

I ran around to the stores to get the items I needed for the horseradish mayonnaise. I came home around 9pm, made the mayonaisse, then ate. The mayonaisse will be a sauce for the barbeque tomorrow. I hope it works out well.

I received a shipment from Amazon today:

Essential Punisher
Down Here: A Burke Novel
More Fund Comics: An All Star Benefit Comic for the Cbldf

These books were suggested by scarcrest, via amazon recommendations.

So much to read, folks. So little time.
