Can it get any worse??
The economy is in a recession that we probably have not seen the likes of since the 1930s..
And now this...
Panel warns that a terrorist biological attack likely by 2013, briefing Obama team
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The United States can expect a terrorist attack using nuclear or more likely biological weapons before 2013, reports a bipartisan commission in a study being briefed Tuesday to Vice President-elect Joe Biden. It suggests the Obama administration bolster efforts to counter and prepare for germ warfare by terrorists.
The rest of the story below:

It seems that all the pieces for bringing in a "New World Order" that allot of people have been talking about for some time are coming in to place.
A book I have been reading for some time now (which was authored before 2001) talks about allot of the things that are now happening and have happened in the last few years.
The book titled "Hope of the Wicked" by Ted Flynn is uncanny in its ability to for tell allot of the things that have been happening in the last few years.
It is almost like reading something a time traveler from the future might write if he were to go back in time to warn people of the future. I know that sounds crazy but it is eerie how this guy seems to put things together to come to conclusions and forecasts of things that were NOT happening when he wrote the book but that now are happening.
A bit more about this book and the author can be had by clicking on the link below:

And it seems the book can still be ordered on line through Amazon.com and other places. I am also sure that used bookstores have it on their shelves.
And now this...

Recession-It is OFFICIAL
What exactly is a recession???
Some people would say that it is when the bottom falls out of whatever is happening in a negative way.
Examples would be:
- your home having less value than what you bought it for
-your paycheck not being enough to cover even the basic things needed to live
-loosing your job because of slow business
and on and on.
And guess what? The Feds have finally admitted that the country has been in one since December of last year.
So what comes next?
A depression? I think that is already here as well.

Hillary Clinton-Close but No Cigar
Even though my choice for President of the U.S. did not come to pass as I had hoped, she will be what amounts to the Third most powerful person in the U.S. come 2009.
Barack Obama (president elect) asked Mrs. Clinton to be his "Secretary of State" in his new administration, which though does not officially start until the middle of Jan. 2009, has already taken on an air of what some call a "parallel presidency" of sorts.
I feel that Hillary will be one of the greatest representatives of this new administration and with her experience and that of her husband (our former president Clinton) and others in this new administration, I think there is now a "light at the end of the tunnel" with a hopeful end to this needless war, a fixing of the economy and other things that the GREATEST NATION on earth needs to do to get things straight once again and to make our nation one that is looked up to by other nations of the world again, like it once was.
I am so hopeful for this new administration and have good feelings about where we are headed with this new leadership. The world needs guidance and I firmly feel that the people that are about to undertake running the greatest country in this world will do us proud.

A Feel Good Story
With all the bad economic news and the articles on the war and Bush's sagging popularity, I thought it would be nice to highlight a "feel good story" of sorts.
The article below (click on link) talks about a couple who through out the 80s, 90s and early 00s became quite popular around the Milwaukee and Chicago area. The male lead (Mike) impersonated Neil Diamond and his wife (Claire) sang songs by Patsy Cline and ABBA. The due was called "Lightning and Thunder".
Back in the mid 90's when I managed a restaurant in Milwuakee by the airport, the couple would come in for dinner about once a week and more often for coffee a few times a week. (I think they lived in the area) and they were always so nice and interesting to converse with.
I had heard that Mike died a few years back and I often wondered what happened to Claire.
Well at least now I know she is still hanging in there and that finally she has met her idol....

Do NOT support the Auto Maker's Bailout!!
(Above: Andy Palmen, president of Palmen Motors in Kenosha, visited Capitol Hill this week to urge Congress to support $25 billion in loans for domestic automakers. He contended that the ripple effects of automakers’ collapse would go far beyond the production plants.)All I can say is WA WA Wa....
If the "Big Three" Automakers (and representing them their CEO's) can go to Washington DC in "Multi Million Dollar" corporate jets to BEG for money, then all I can say is THEY DO NOT DESERVE A SINGLE PENNY OF MY TAX PAYER DOLLARS!!!!
This whole thing is beyond the realm of rediculous. It would be like me begging for unemployment compensation and then going out and buying a Mercedes Bennz and putting a downpayment on an ocean front villa.
I hope the people of this nation and those that represent us (our congress) realise this and act accordingly.
What we really need here is money to the consumer to kick start the economy. Another "tax rebate" to each and every person in the amount of thousands of dollars so we can pay off some of our personal debt, give ourselves an "Emergency fund" to cushion ourselves and when it comes down to it....money to eat, pay our bills and live a halfway decent life.
Read on for what one whiny Wisconsin automotive executive has to say.
I do not feel sorry for him in the least. Big company exess has been going on for way too long.
It is time for it to stop.....

Deflation??
I do not ever recall hearing that word while studying economics in school. And if the word was covered, I guess I did not pay enough attention.
But in seeing what is going on with the economy in the country right now, the following article explains the word and what it means.
I would say that we ARE in the beginning of a great recession (depression), the likes of what have not been seen since the 1930s.
It has affected me personally as I recently got laid off from a job that I held for 10 years. I am now thick in the search of looking for a new job and let me tell you that things are not easy at all. Some people are looking but many are not and quite a few people are letting their employees go for lack of business.
I sure hope our new government coming into office this coming Jan. can figure out a way to reverse this downward slide and help to boost our economy and all that it entails into a forward movement.
