monday, monday

stocks are up so far this morning. i also had a fiber one peanut butter granola bar for breakfast. that was perfection.

here's some ideas to keep in mind during a recession.

we've had to plan for a hurricane and a recession this year. that's quite the twofer. now let's not add president mccain to that list and i'll be a happy man.

little bit of history on the tools FDR and others have used in similar situations.

interesting review of a band called department of eagles. it's done by one of the guys in grizzly bear, which immediately perks my ears. haven't heard any of it yet. but if anyone reads this and does listen to it, let me know.

"forget about your house of cards, and i'll do mine."

went to my first texans game this weekend. i know i recently posted that i would never go because ticket prices are outrageous and blah, blah, blah. but.....this one was FREE. that's right. you don't turn down anything that's free and that includes the few things that were free that i should have turned down like that bowl of hush puppies. so what a game right! texans try to blow every chance they get and they still end up winning. don't know how they did it. my eyes were closed most of the game in fear. but i heard cheering and that was a good sign.

got a midterm on tuesday and saturday. that means i'm halfway done with my last semester. wow.
