Financial meltdowns.

There is enough news to go around. I am reminded of a song I really loved from the 60s (I think. Or early 70s.) A song by the band Traffic, "Low Spark of High Heeled boys" warned us....

"...and the man in the suit
just bought a new car
from the profit he made
off your dreams."

Sound familiar. I don't hear congress asking any of these fat cats for those new cars (or those silk suits) back. But we could be advised. If we did not try to live beyond our means, they wouldn't have a market to milk. All we can do is take the fuel away from those who like to start really big fires.

Unlike my usual, short and sweet. Get the CD, or find the song and listen to it. It's pretty good.

I'll put up a pic of an MRI of my brain. It doesn't matter what I look like. It only matters that I think, therefore I am. :)

Widespread Panic does a really good cover, dare I say better than the original?
