09/25/2008 01:52:12 jim Disasterous events | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
Its been a long life of disasterous things happening For me, I grew up in a shack with an outhouse. I enjoyed those times, but the news was full of Hippies , Flower Children , LSD , Vietnam War , Racial Wars and the Kent State shootings . Then it went on to Food Shortages , Stagflation , Oil Spills and Gas shortages . Then there was the horrible Aids and the Ebola viruses. In Vegas, the Mgm Grand Fire killed 100 people. There was the Gulf War . The '.com' bubble broke. In this decade, there was the fear of Y2K which ended up doing nothing, and the Twin Towers which ended up changing a lot of things. I'd guess Wall Street going bonkers isn't that interesting. I have camping gear with me. If everything crashes, we're going camping! YEA! |
09/25/2008 01:23:26 jim About my new job | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
Well, I just can't talk about. All I can say is, we deal with the stock market, and as you probably know already, the stock world is crashing to its knees. Work aside, I'm getting that same strange feeling that I had after I saw those planes crash into the twin towers. I just know everything is going to change. We haven't caught much of the news lately. We've been too busy checking out our new environment to be that bored. Sometimes, I think ignorance is bliss. Maybe I'd rather not know that the one-way trail we all are walking down ends at a cliff. I'd assume that somehow, all of the credit so lavishly acquired and abruptly defaulted upon, will be forgiven. I should have borrowed the maximums. I didn't though. I would think the the sound of Lehman Brothers crashing is the sound made by money going into the pockets of the middle class, all cashing in on their home equity loans, then heading off to bankruptcy court. I just wonder how houses got over inflated in value in the first place. If someone told me my $80,000 home was worth $1,000,000 wouldn't I be crazy not to borrow against its equity, then default on the loan? For those that did, my hats off to ya floating around the waters in your yatchs. For all of us others that have pride in ownership I say, "should of, could have, but didn't". |

- my internet mail is slower than real mail - a sneak peek at a TV episode on http://www.tnt.tv takes an hour - http://www.LVDude.com takes a minute to load - If I watch a video on http://www.YouTube.com , all I get three pictures If the pop-ups are mostly all I get, why can't google be a pop-up. Sorry if I haven't posted much lately. Lately, I get all of my email on my IPhone. It all works out though. There's been so much to be done here that I've hardly had time for internet. |

09/16/2008 07:40:57 jim Power Outages all over the Pittsburgh area. | Tue |||||||||||||||||||
We had 70 mph winds Sunday. Power lines and trees went down everywhere. Schools were closed on Monday. People were being told to boil their water in some areas. The best story I've heard so far about it: A coworker attended his brother-in-law's wedding that day. Twelve of them were in a basement watching a football game in their Tuxedos. When the power went out, it went completely black. I couldn't imagine that. In all my travels, in all my experiences, I've never watched a football game with a bunch of other guys. It sounded GREAT! |
09/14/2008 20:09:59 Jim We are riding the snake | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Its a train and its going 60 mph.. Our track ends after 40 million miles, where our ride takes us off the side of a mountain in the clouds. We know it ends, but we don't care. On our ride, we can look out the window at all of the beautiful things. We can't become a part of them because our train won't stop. But we can love all that we see. And it is beautiful. |
